2 Answers
Buick Envision remote start operation method: 1. First press the vehicle locator button to ensure the vehicle is within the effective range of the remote key, generally 60m; 2. Press the lock button to ensure the vehicle is in a locked state; 3. In the locked state, long press the remote start button to start the vehicle. The Buick Envision is General Motors' new-generation global strategic model, inheriting the design essence of the ENVISION Vision concept car. The current model offers 1.5T and 2.0T engine options, each available in both two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive versions. The 1.5T is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, while the 2.0T is matched with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
After purchasing a Buick Envision, I frequently use the remote start feature, which is quite user-friendly. There are generally two methods: With the key fob, you first press the lock button twice to confirm the doors are locked, then hold down the small button with the engine icon for a few seconds until the lights flash, indicating a successful start. Alternatively, using the mobile app, I downloaded the official Buick OnStar application, logged in, selected the vehicle icon, and tapped the remote start option to set the desired time or temperature—extremely convenient. I typically start the car in the morning to warm up the engine and activate the air conditioning, cooling the car in summer and warming it in winter, eliminating the wait time after getting in. The app also displays fuel levels and location, which is handy if I forget where I parked. Safety precautions: Ensure the car is parked securely with no obstacles before starting, and note that doors automatically lock when the engine is running for theft prevention. Avoid overuse to prevent unnecessary fuel consumption and battery wear. I usually set up app notifications to make the process smarter and more efficient. Overall, this feature significantly enhances daily convenience, especially for commuters, and becomes indispensable once you get used to it.
