Vehicle Security remote Lock/Unlock:

• Remotely lock or unlock the vehicle.

Vehicle Security remote Alarm Reset:

• Receive an alert when the alarm is sounding, with the option to remotely reset it.

Vehicle Wake Up:

• Schedule a wake up time for vehicle's systems.

Note: The availability and functionality of the InControl Remote Premium features depends on the specification of the vehicle and the area in which the vehicle is used.

Beep and Flash

The Vehicle Status page is the home screen for the app. With InControl Remote Premium, Beep and Flash is added to the screen. You will be able to locate your vehicle more easily when the vehicle's lamps flash and the horn sounds.

Note: It is the responsibility of the driver to comply with all regulations in force regarding the use of vehicle horns.

Remote Climate

The Remote Climate page allows the engine of an automatic transmission vehicle to be started remotely, and run for up to 30 minutes to provide a comfortable temperature inside the cabin in advance of the driver entering the vehicle. Press the Engine START button on the Remote Climate page and enter a PIN. A target temperature can be set.

Remote climate will not function if any of the following conditions exist:

• The vehicle's fuel level is low.
• The vehicle's battery charge level is low.
• The vehicle is not locked.
• A window, door, bonnet, or the luggage area is open.
• The engine has been manually started.
• There is a system error with a required vehicle system.
• A theft has been detected.
• The vehicle's alarm is sounding.
• A crash event has been detected.
• The hazard warning lamps are switched on.
• The automatic transmission is not in Park (P).
• The brake pedal is pressed.

Note: Some markets may prohibit the use of a remote engine start. It remains the responsibility of the driver to know if this function can legally be used.

Note: This feature is also available for vehicles fitted with a Timed climate system. If the vehicle configuration (e.g., transmission or engine variant) does not support a remote engine start, or if the vehicle originated in a market with legal restrictions on a remote engine start, then the Timed climate system may be used to support the cabin pre-conditioning.

Vehicle Security

Remote Premium adds additional functionality to the Vehicle Security page, allowing the user to lock and unlock the vehicle remotely. If either lock or unlock cannot be performed an error message will be displayed on the screen. For added security, this function requires a PIN code to be entered.

When the vehicle is locked remotely, it will be secured to the maximum possible level allowed in the market in which the vehicle was intended for original sale.

Note: In some markets, remote closing of windows is not permitted.

When the vehicle is unlocked remotely, it will relock after 45 seconds if no door or aperture is opened.

If an alarm alert is received, the vehicle's alarm can be reset from your current position.

Note: Regardless of which screen is currently displayed, if the vehicle's alarm is sounding, a pop-up screen appears with an option to reset the alarm. The alarm may also be reset via the Vehicle Security screen.

Note: It remains the responsibility of the driver to know the location of the vehicle and to make sure that the vehicle is secured.

Vehicle Wake Up

The InControl Remote system will enter a low power mode, 96 hours after the last engine stop. This is to conserve vehicle battery life.

If your vehicle is parked for an extended period, for example, you are on vacation, or away on a business trip, then you can use the Vehicle Wake Up on the app. This feature will wake up the InControl Remote system on the selected date. Any date within a 30 day period can be chosen.

Once Vehicle Wake Up is set, the InControl Remote system will enter the low power mode after 60 hours. Battery power is then reserved for the wake up.

Note: The Vehicle Wake Up feature cannot be set once the InControl Remote system has shut down.
