remote start turns on A/C and heat regardless of temp

When I remote start the car, it automatically defaults to turning the AC on high and turning on the airconditioned seats. I have set a "my temp" which is at 85 degrees. I have went in and set and reset the dash option from Auto to Last Setting about 100 times. It's 28 degrees outside and it's a real pain and actually pointless to remotely start my car expecting it to get warmed up for me and my child...when the darn AC is on. I end up going outside and actually starting the car and turning on the defrost, hot air, heated seats, etc. It may be "warming" up the engine, but it's certainly not warming the inside of the car.
