How to achieve remote start on the 2021 CR-V?

The method to achieve remote start on the 2021 CR-V is: 1. Press the lock button and then hold the hold button; 2. When the car's turn signals flash six times consecutively, it indicates that the engine has successfully started remotely. The working principle of remote start is that the vehicle starts the engine through a signal sent by the remote key. The 2021 CR-V is a compact SUV with the following dimensions: length 4621mm, width 1855mm, height 1679mm, wheelbase 2661mm, fuel tank capacity 53L, and curb weight 1506kg. The 2021 CR-V features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 193PS, maximum power of 142kW, maximum torque of 243Nm, and is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.
I bought the 2021 CR-V Hybrid last year and found the remote start is actually quite simple. First lock the car with the key fob, then quickly press the lock button twice, followed by holding down the circular start button for about 5 seconds. When you see the turn signals flash a few times, it means the engine has started. This is especially practical for preheating the car in winter, though I noticed this feature is only available on specific trim levels - the base model might not have it. Also, make sure the key fob is within 30 meters of the vehicle. After starting, the air conditioning will automatically operate at the last settings, but the engine will shut off automatically after 10 minutes. If it frequently malfunctions, it might be time to replace the key fob battery or check if the vehicle battery voltage is insufficient - just inspect these and it should work fine.
