Remote Start
Remote start is an optional feature available on this vehicle. In addition to being able to start the vehicle remotely, the remote start feature also utilizes other vehicle systems to increase the level of comfort to the vehicle occupants upon entering the vehicle. Additional information on the remote start feature and the other vehicle systems, refer to Owner's Literature.
To set the climate control to operate in Auto mode through the information display setting: Remote Start > Climate Control > Heater-A/C > Auto, refer to the Owner's Literature for more information.
When the factory remote start feature is used, the DATC system automatically sets certain parameters in an attempt to achieve a comfortable cabin temperature. These parameters are set based on multiple inputs including the in-vehicle temperature and humidity, sunload and outside air temperature sensors.
