Extending Engine Run Time

The engine will continue to run for 10 minutes. Repeat the steps for a 10-minute time extension. Remote start can only be extended once.

When remote start is extended, the second 10 minutes will start immediately.

For example, if the vehicle 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 remote start attempts are 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.
