Which Honda Vehicles Provide Remote Start?

What is Remote Start?

When the temperatures drop, it can be daunting to climb into a cold car, start the engine, and shiver until the heat kicks in. If you want to start your engine and run the heat before you ever hop in, you can take advantage of the remote start function in a selection of Honda vehicles. Learn more about this handy feature and find a Honda model that provides the convenience you need at O’Daniel Honda.

How Does Remote Start Work?

With remote start, you can use your Honda’s key fob to start your car’s engine from a distance without having to get in and manually turn the ignition key. To use this function, press the key fob’s Lock button, then hold the Engine button until the engine starts. Be sure to hold down the Engine button within five seconds of the Lock button. The engine will run for 10 minutes and will shut off if you don’t get in and go. If you want to extend the remote running time, you can repeat the button-pressing steps above for an additional 10 minutes. If you need to shut the engine off while it’s running remotely, simply hold the Engine button until the engine cuts off.

Remote Start Safety

Be sure to take safety precautions when using the remote start feature. Be careful not to use it when the car is parked in a poorly ventilated space (like a garage), as dangerous fumes could accumulate around it. You should also look out for fire hazards around the vehicle before letting it run idle, from nearby gas cans to car covers.
