Remote Vehicle Start
The vehicle may have this feature that allows you to start the engine from outside the vehicle.
(Remote Vehicle Start): This button
will be on the RKE transmitter if the vehicle has remote start.
Vehicles with an automatic climate control system will default to a heating or cooling mode depending on the outside temperature during a remote start. A vehicle without automatic climate control will default to the last used heating or cooling mode. Once the key is turned to ON/RUN, the climate control system will turn on at the setting the vehicle was last set to. If the vehicle has heated seats, they may come on during a remote start. See Heated Front Seats for more information.
Laws in some local communities may restrict the use of remote starters. For example, some laws require a person using remote start to have the vehicle in view. Check local regulations for any requirements.
Other conditions can affect the performance of the transmitter. See Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System for additional information.
