Winter Warm-Up
Start from indoors so you’re not freezing at the wheel. Pre-heating helps prevent fogged windows and improves visibility before you roll.

Arctic Start Remote Starters
Most people buy remote starters to pre-warm in winter or pre-cool in summer. With Arctic Start, you also gain engine protection, added security, and safer starts right from your pocket.
Summer Cool-Down
Beat the heat. Cool the cabin and steering wheel before you enter—especially helpful in triple-digit temps.
Good for the Engine
Gentle warm-up helps oil circulate, reducing wear—especially on older or classic vehicles.
Improved Security
Remote-started vehicles can’t be driven without the key. Add GPS and alerts to monitor location and deter theft.
Safer Starts
Preset defrost clears ice and snow while you stay inside. Less scraping, better visibility, safer commute.

Will remote start let a thief drive away
No. Without the key present, the vehicle will shut down if the brake or gear is engaged. Add security or tracking for even more protection.
Is remote start hard on my engine
Gentle warm-up helps oil circulate. Avoid high RPM driving until operating temperature stabilizes—remote start helps you do exactly that.
What about defrost and climate presets
Set your HVAC and defrost before shutdown. Your vehicle will resume those settings when you use remote start so glass clears as it warms.
