Remote Engine Start (Sport and above)

What’s the Benefit?

The remote engine start system provides a sophisticated level of additional comfort.

The Feature:

Imagine being able to start your Civic before you get in, so it’ll already be cooled off inside on a hot day—or warmed up and defrosted on a cold one.

• Remote engine start works when you’re within about 100 feet of the vehicle.
• Just push the LOCK button on the remote, and then push and hold the ENGINE START button for at least a second—the starter will fire up the engine, and the automatic climate control system will begin conditioning the interior to a temperature of 72º F.
• When you reach the car with the remote in your possession, you can enter the car as usual—the engine will keep running.
• To drive, step on the brake pedal and push the ENGINE START button once. 
• The instruments will illuminate and you’ll be ready to go.
