Know what kind of control to look for.
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
Make sure the Traverse is parked outdoors in a safe, ventilated location with the doors closed.
- 02
Use the Remote Vehicle Start control on the key fob twice as shown in the fob diagram and confirm that the parking lamps respond.
- 03
Repeat the same sequence during the first session if you need the one permitted additional 15-minute run period.
- 04
After entering, press the brake and ENGINE START/STOP button before driving, or hold the remote-start cancel control until the parking lamps turn off to end the session early.
Important limits
- Never remote-start in an enclosed garage because exhaust gases can accumulate.
- Remote start does not make the vehicle ready to drive; the normal in-cabin start procedure is still required.
Quick checks.
- ✓If the engine does not start, verify the doors and hood are closed and that no start-preventing warning is active.
- ✓If the second extension is rejected, the allowed extension may already have been used; start the vehicle normally before the next remote-start cycle.
