How to Remotely Start a Chevrolet Cruze?
2 Answers
Cruze remote start method is to press the lock button on the smart key, then long press the circle button at the bottom left for 5 seconds. When the car's turn signals flash, it indicates the vehicle has started. The Chevrolet Cruze remote start offers the following 4 advantages: 1. High reliability with reduced failure probability: Since remote starting the engine or motor is structurally identical to manual ignition, there's no mechanical wear issue with heaters, significantly lowering failure rates; 2. Convenient operation with a range of at least 50 meters: Remote starting is extremely convenient, typically operable from distances no less than 50 meters, allowing users to pre-start the engine/motor from home/office when parked in ground lots; 3. Automatic timing prevents fuel waste from forgotten shutdown: Remotely started engines/motors will automatically shut off after inactivity, preventing potential fuel wastage; 4. Whole-vehicle heating warms coolant: This function, like parking heaters, raises coolant temperature, effectively heating the cabin, engine, and windows.
I used to frequently use the remote start feature when driving the Cruze, which is perfect for lazy people. First, press the lock button on the key fob and wait for the beep to confirm the car is locked. Then, hold down the circular button with the arrow symbol for about three to four seconds, and the car will start. The headlights will flash a few times to indicate success, and you can even see white exhaust fumes through the glass. This works within a range of about 30 meters, making it most useful on winter mornings for preheating the car and melting frost on the windshield. After starting, the air conditioner automatically turns on to the last set temperature, so in summer, the car can cool down before you get in. However, remember that the engine will only run for 10 minutes before automatically shutting off as an anti-theft measure.
