How to Operate the Remote Start Feature on the Geely Binyue?

Within 50 meters while the vehicle is locked, use the key to first press the lock button, then hold down the start button (long press the circular button) within two seconds to remotely start the engine. Additional information about the car's remote start feature is as follows: 1. The Geely Binyue's remote start function activates the engine via the car's remote key. Its working principle is: the vehicle starts the engine or motor based on signals received from the remote key. This feature is highly utilized in cold regions. Moreover, when the engine or motor is running, the central locking system remains engaged, ensuring safety. 2. The remote start control system can only be installed in automatic transmission models. This is because automatic transmissions are equipped with a TCU control unit, which informs the ECU engine control unit about the gear position. The engine will only start when the onboard computer confirms the gear is in the P (Park) position, preventing accidental vehicle movement. Aftermarket installations lack this protective feature.
Operating the remote start feature on the Geely Binyue is actually pretty cool. I know many owners love preheating their cars in winter. First, you need to download the Geely Link App to your phone, log in to your account, select your vehicle model, and then tap the 'Remote Start' button. The whole process relies on mobile signals, so don’t go too far—it’s best to use Wi-Fi or 4G within 100 meters, otherwise it might fail. The car automatically checks for unlocked doors or obstacles before starting, which is a safe design. Remember, after starting, the engine will run for 5-10 minutes and then shut off automatically, preheating the AC and engine—super convenient. If the App won’t open, check your phone’s internet connection or update the App. Using this feature regularly can extend battery life and prevent cold-weather wear, but avoid using it frequently in heavy rain to minimize risks. In short, try tapping a few more times—it gets easier once you’re used to it.
