If your RKE transmitter fails to operate from a normal

distance, check for these two conditions:
1. A weak battery in the transmitter. The expected life of

the battery is a minimum of three years.

2. Closeness to a radio transmitter such as a radio station

tower, airport transmitter, and some mobile or CB

radios.

REMOTE STARTING SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED

This system uses the Remote Keyless Entry

(RKE) transmitter to start the engine conve-

niently from outside the vehicle while still

maintaining security. The system has a range of

approximately 300 ft (91 m).

NOTE:

• The vehicle must be equipped with an automatic

transmission to be equipped with Remote Start.

• Obstructions between the vehicle and the Key Fob may

reduce this range.

How To Use Remote Start

All of the following conditions must be met before the

engine will remote start:

• Shift lever in PARK
• Doors closed
• Hood closed
• Liftgate closed
• HAZARD switch off
• BRAKE switch inactive (brake pedal not pushed)
