Having the ability to remote start your Nissan Altima can be a big convenience. It’s great for warming up your vehicle in MD before hopping in to go about your daily adventures. Are you wondering how to use the remote start feature on your Altima?
Remotely Starting Your Nissan Altima
Using Nissan Remote Start with a Key Fob
Using your remote start is simple. Using your remote key, press the lock button. Then, press and hold the engine start button until the vehicle starts.
In order for the remote start on your Nissan to work, you’ll need to check a few things first. All of the vehicle’s doors and windows must be closed and locked. The hood also must be closed as well, and the vehicle needs to be in park. You can’t remotely start your vehicle from the inside out. Once a vehicle is started via a remote, it will run for a certain amount of time depending on the model before shutting off automatically.
Checking Whether Your Altima Has Remote Start
Many current Nissan models, as well as many models from recent years, have remote start. For instance, when looking at the 2024 Nissan Altima, you will find starting on the base Nissan Altima S that the car comes with a Remote Engine Start System. This gets found on the Altima SV and SR as well, and then on the Altima SR VC-Turbo and SL, you get Remote Engine Start System with Intelligent Climate Control.
Remote Start with NissanConnect
For some Altima models, the key fob is not the only option to remote start your vehicle. If a vehicle is equipped with NissanConnect technology, this can also be used to remote start the vehicle, as well as to enjoy other features. NissanConnect is a technology service that connects your vehicle to your mobile device via the MyNISSAN App. Once connected, you can use the smartphone app to remote start your car remotely from anywhere.
You can also use the MyNISSAN App to lock and unlock your vehicle, set the temperature while remote starting your vehicle, and check your vehicle’s location from anywhere. NissanConnect is available on select 2023 and 2024 models of the Altima.
