Extending Engine Run Time
For a 10-minute extension, repeat Steps 1–3 while the engine is still running. The remote start can be extended once.
When the remote start is extended, the second 10 minutes will start immediately.
For example, if the engine has been running for five minutes, and 10 minutes are added, the engine will run for a total of 15 minutes.
A maximum of two remote starts, or a single start with an extension, is allowed between ignition cycles.
The vehicle's ignition must be turned on and then back off before the remote start procedure can be used again.
