How to start your Infiniti remotely through the MyINFINITI app

Don’t worry—it’s easy to use the Remote Engine Start in the MyINFINITI app. You’ll need to download the app and sign in using your MyINFINITI Owners Portal Account or register if you haven’t already. iPhone users can download the app through the App Store and Google Play for Android users. 
After you download the app, hop into your Infiniti and preset the temperature settings while in your vehicle then select Enable Start to begin using the remote start feature.
Before you start your Infiniti remotely, make sure your vehicle is in the following conditions: 
  • Car doors are closed and locked 
  • Vehicle hood is closed
  • Rolled up windows
  • Transmission is in the park position
  • Infiniti Intelligent key is outside the vehicle 
  • Brake pedal is not engaged
Now just go into the MyINFINITI app and just press Remote Start. That’s it! 
If you haven’t started your vehicle’s engine in the last 14 days, you will need to use your Infiniti Intelligent Key to start your engine before turning it on remotely via the app. 

How to turn your Infiniti off remotely 

When you start your Infiniti with Remote Engine Start, the vehicle will run for 10 minutes before turning itself off. Let’s say you changed your mind or remotely started your car by accident—just press Remote Stop to turn your Infiniti off remotely. It really is that easy!

Other Remote Connect features

The MyINFINITI app does so much more than simply turning off and on your vehicle. Here are a few of the other standout features included in the app: 
  • Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant connectivity: Send voice commands to your vehicle when you hook up Alexa or Google Assistant.
  • Lock/unlock doors and trunk: Use the app to lock and unlock the doors or pop open the trunk
  • Guest users: Bypass the need for several keys and grant personalized access (think only letting your teen unlock and not drive) to up to eight users.
  • Vehicle status: Track various driving performance details including speed, fuel economy, steering specs, and more.
  • Drive zone alert: Set pre-specified boundaries for guest users and get notified when they drive out of bounds
  • Roadside assistance: Just utter the words “roadside assistance” to be immediately connected to a dispatch agent and towing services.
  • Remote horn and lights: Can’t find your Infiniti? Remotely flash the headlights and honk the horn for 15 seconds to locate your car!
You can use Infiniti’s remote services via a smartphone or smartwatch. Infiniti’s InTouch Services also allows you to set valet or parental controls (think max speed and curfew) and includes features like Wifi hotspot, Destination Assistance, and Journey Planner, which allows you to enter four waypoints to your trip, and calculates driving time and distance.
