Remote Start - Rear Window Defrost Operation - If Equipped

The customer can select different climate control modes/preferences when the vehicle is started using the remote start feature. This can be accessed through the message center. When the rear window defrost is set to AUTO mode, the rear window defrost activates when the outside temperature is less than 0°C (32°F) and the vehicle is started using the remote start feature. No climate control adjustments are recognized during remote start operation. Once the ignition is cycled to the ON position, the climate control system returns to the previous settings (last ignition ON cycle) and adjustments can be made normally. The rear window defrost may remain on after the ignition is cycled on. For additional information on setting the remote start preferences, refer to the Owner's Literature.
