HOW TO USE REMOTE START

Push and release the Remote Start button on the

key fob twice within five seconds. The vehicle

Remote Start mode for a 15 minute cycle.

Pushing the Remote Start button a third time shuts

the engine off.

To drive the vehicle, push the unlock button, and

place the ignition in the ON/RUN position.
