Buick 2006 manual Remote Start Ready

After two remote starts have been provided, the vehicle’s ignition switch must be turned to RUN and then back to LOCK using the key before the remote start procedure can be used again.

•Aim the remote keyless entry transmitter at the vehicle and press the remote start button until the parking lamps turn off.

•Turn on the hazard warning flashers.

•Insert the vehicle’s key into the ignition switch and turn the switch to RUN and then back to LOCK.

•The vehicle’s key is in the ignition.

•The vehicle’s hood, liftgate or doors are not closed.

Remote Start Ready

If your vehicle does not have the remote vehicle start feature, it may have the remote start ready feature. This feature allows your dealer to add the manufacturer’s remote vehicle start feature.

If the keyless entry transmitter has a plus (+) symbol on the back cover, your vehicle has the remote start ready feature. You can lock or unlock your vehicle from approximately 197 feet (60 m) away.

See your dealer if you would like to add the manufacturer’s remote vehicle start feature to your vehicle.
