GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 21
NOTE:
For more information on normal starting, see
Ú page 139.
When opening the driver's door with the ignition
in the ON/RUN position (engine not running), a
chime will sound to remind you to place the igni-
tion in the OFF position. In addition to the chime,
the message will display “Ignition Or Accessory
On” in the cluster.
REMOTE START — IF EQUIPPED
(GASOLINE)
If applicable, refer to the “Hybrid Supplement” for
additional information.
This system uses the key fob to start the
engine conveniently from outside the
vehicle while still maintaining security.
The system has a range of 328 ft (100 m).
Remote Start is used to defrost windows in cold
weather, and to reach a comfortable climate in all
ambient conditions before the driver enters the
vehicle.
NOTE:
The vehicle must be equipped with an auto-
matic transmission to be equipped with Remote
Start.
Obstructions between the vehicle and key fob
may reduce this range Ú page 431.
HOW TO USE REMOTE START
Push and release the Remote Start button on the
key fob twice within five seconds. The vehicle
doors and swing gate will lock, the turn signals will
flash twice, and the horn will chirp twice. Pushing
the Remote Start button again will shut the engine
off.
NOTE:
With Remote Start, the engine will only run for
15 minutes.
Remote Start can only be used twice.
If an engine fault is present or fuel level is low,
the vehicle will start and then shut down in 10
seconds.
The parking lights will turn on and remain on
during Remote Start mode.
For security, power window operation is
disabled when the vehicle is in the Remote Start
mode.
The ignition must be placed in the ON/RUN posi-
tion before the Remote Start sequence can be
repeated for a third cycle.
All of the following conditions must be met before
the engine will remote start:
Gear selector in PARK
Doors closed
Hood closed
Swing gate closed

Brake switch inactive (brake pedal not pressed)
Battery at an acceptable charge level
Panic button not pushed

WARNING!
Do not start or run an engine in a closed
garage or confined area. Exhaust gas contains
Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is odorless and
colorless. Carbon Monoxide is poisonous and
can cause serious injury or death when
inhaled.
Keep key fobs away from children. Operation
of the Remote Start system, windows, door
locks or other controls could cause serious
injury or death.
