From freezing mornings to sweltering summer days, getting into a car can be intimidating if you know you have to wait for the cabin’s climate control to kick in. Every moment spent shivering or sweating can feel too long, but you don’t have to sit still and wait for your onboard air conditioning and heat to reach the right temperature. With the remote start feature, you can crank your Honda’s engine and have your climate control up and running before you ever get in the driver’s seat, and this feature is available for a wide range of Honda models. How Does Remote Start Work?
With your Honda vehicle’s key fob, you can remotely start your engine from a distance without having to climb in and turn the ignition with your key. It just takes a few quick steps. First, press the key fob’s Lock button. Next, hold down the Engine button until the engine starts. The engine will run for 10 minutes, and if you need more time, repeat the previous steps for 10 more minutes. If you need to stop the engine, just hold the Engine button until the vehicle shuts off.
While availability may vary by model and year, you can find a remote start in a selection of new Honda models, including:
