This original category diagram is an orientation aid, not a picture of your exact trim. Use the written labels and your vehicle manual to identify the real control.
Step by step.
- 01
Park the Envista outdoors in a ventilated area, close the doors and hood, and keep the vehicle in Park.
- 02
Press and release Lock on the key fob, then press and hold Remote Start until the turn signal lamps flash.
- 03
Repeat the same Lock-then-hold sequence while the engine is running if one additional 15-minute period is needed.
- 04
After entering, start the vehicle normally before driving, or hold the cancel control until the parking lamps turn off to stop the remote-start session.
Important limits
- Never remote-start in an enclosed garage because exhaust gases can accumulate.
- Remote start runs for 15 minutes per period and does not make the vehicle ready to drive until the normal in-cabin start procedure is completed.
Quick checks.
- ✓If the turn signals do not flash, move closer, verify the hood and doors are closed, and check the fob battery.
- ✓If another extension is refused, the permitted extension may already have been used; start the engine normally before beginning a new remote-start cycle.
