Remote Start

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Lincoln Navigator and 2015 Ford Expedition. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Remote start is an optional feature available on this vehicle. In addition to being able to start the vehicle remotely, the remote start feature also utilizes other vehicle systems to increase the level of comfort to the vehicle occupants upon entering the vehicle. Additional information on the remote start feature and the other vehicle systems, refer to Owner's Literature.

When the factory remote start feature is used, the EMTC system runs at the setting it was set to when the vehicle was last turned off. You cannot adjust the climate control system during remote start operation. Turn the ignition on to return the system to its previous settings.

Set the climate control to operate using the last climate control settings through the information display setting: Remote Start > Climate Control > Heater-A/C > Last Settings, refer to the Owner's Literature for more information.

When the remote start feature is used, the climate control system automatically sets certain parameters in an attempt to achieve a comfortable cabin temperature. These parameters are set based on outside air temperature. During remote start, the outside air temperature is continually evaluated and HVAC system behavior can change if the outside air changes between cold, moderate and warm temperatures.
