Using Remote Start
Important! (1) Never remotely start the vehicle with the
vehicle in gear, and (2) Never remotely start the vehicle
with the key in the ignition.
Starting the Engine:
1. Press and release the remote control button.
2. The engine will START and the parking lights will turn on. The

or extended by the installer.
If a remote start configuration issue prevents the engine from starting, the parking lights flash a remote start fault report to identify
the fault. See "" on page 9.

to the desired temperature prior to starting.
