Shut off with OEM remote (after starting remotely)?

2016 Subaru Forester, Standard Key, OEM Remote, No Factory Alarm

EVO ONE recently installed and everything works as expected using 3X lock with OEM remote.  Is there a way to turn off the vehicle with the OEM remote after starting it remotely?  I tried 3X lock after starting it but that didn't work.  I didn't see any other options in the firmware.  Is this only possible with an RF kit?

You must press 3x lock again. After the vehicle is running, wait a minute before shutting down. The blue LED should flash everytime you press lock.

Thanks for your response.  I tried your suggestion this morning but did not have any luck.  I tried after 1.5 minutes and then again after a few more minutes, but it would not shut down.  The blue LED does flash every time the lock button is pressed.

I will have to get the service number later...currently the unit is secured under the dash and not easily accessible.  I am using the latest firmware.
