Easy to use and exceptionally convenient, the Remote Start feature is widely available on recent GMC models.
All Remote Start vehicles come with a Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter, which keeps your vehicle running for up to 10 minutes after you press the button. Activating your RKE transmitter will ignite your engine and start to run pre-set heating or cooling options, depending on your preference. If your car is not equipped with automatic climate control, the system will default to the heating or cooling settings from when the vehicle was last turned off.
Here is a simple step-by-step guide to using your GMC Remote Start system:
1. Point the RKE transmitter in the direction of your vehicle.
2. Press and release the button that looks like a padlock.
3. Directly after pressing the padlock, press and hold the circular arrow button until the turn signals on your GMC vehicle begin to flash. If you are not in view of your auto, press and hold the circular arrow button for two to four seconds.
4. Your GMC vehicle has now been successfully started remotely.
After activating the Remote Start system, your GMC vehicle’s parking lights will illuminate and remain on for the duration of the Remote Start process. The GMC vehicle’s doors will automatically lock once Remote Start has been initiated.
Once again, after beginning the Remote Start system, your GMC vehicle will remain on for only 10 minutes. You may extend the process for an additional 10 minutes only once, by following steps one through three (listed above).
Please note that some communities restrict the use of remote transmitter systems, such as requiring operators to have the vehicle in view before turning activating their Remote Start system. Be sure to research your community regulations before investing in a Remote Start system.
