How do I turn quiet start on or off?

When your car is started via the remote start button, the horn will honk to confirm that the vehicle has been started. When the quiet start feature is turned on, the horn will not honk, and the climate control fan will automatically turn to a low setting, so that your vehicle is as quiet as possible. To turn this feature on or off, follow these steps: 1. Press the Up/Down buttons on the steering wheel until Settings is displayed on the instrument panel, then press the OK button. 2. Press the Up/Down buttons until Convenience is displayed, then press the OK button. 3. Press the Up/Down buttons until Remote Start is displayed, then press the OK button. 4. Press the Up/Down buttons until Quiet Start is displayed, then press the OK button. 5. Select On or Off.
