Keys and Remote Controls Note: If the vehicle has been remote started and is equipped with an integrated keyhead transmitter, you must turn the ignition on before driving the vehicle. If equipped with an intelligent access transmitter, you must press the START/STOP button on the instrument panel once while applying the brake pedal before driving the vehicle. The power windows will be inhibited during the remote start and the radio will not turn on automatically. The parking lamps will remain on and the engine will run for 5, 10, or 15 minutes, depending on the setting. Extending the Engine Run Time Repeat Steps 1 and 2 with the engine still running to extend the run time for another remote start duration. If you programmed the duration to last 10 minutes, the second 10 minutes will be added. For example, if the vehicle had been running from the first remote start for five minutes, the engine will continue to run now for a total of 20 minutes. You can only extend the remote start once. Wait at least five seconds before remote starting after an engine shutdown. Only two remote starts are allowed. The vehicle must be started without remote start then switched off or allow one hour to pass before using remote start again if additional remote starts are desired. Turning the Engine Off After Remote Starting Press the button once. The parking lamps will turn off. You may have to be closer to the vehicle than when starting due to ground reflection and the added noise of the running engine. E138625 You can disable or enable the remote start system through the information display. See General Information (page 84). REPLACING A LOST KEY OR REMOTE CONTROL Replacement or additional keys or remote controls can be purchased from your authorized dealer. Your dealer can program the transmitters to your vehicle or you may be able to program them yourself. See Passive Anti-Theft System (page 62). 48
