FOB Reminder:This option sounds the horn
three times when the driver’s door is closed and there
is a keyless access transmitter inside the interior of
the vehicle. This will only occur when the vehicle is off.
Press the OPTION button until FOB REMINDER appears
on the display, then press the RESET button to scroll
through the following modes:
YES
NO (default)
If you choose YES, the horn will sound three times
when a keyless access transmitter is inside of the
vehicle while the ignition is turned off and the driver’s
door is closed.
If you choose NO, this option will turn off.
When the mode you want is selected, press the
OPTION button to set your choice and advance to
the next personal option.
Passive Door Locking:This option allows you to
select whether the doors automatically lock during
normal vehicle exit. When the ignition is turned off and
all doors become closed, the vehicle will determine
how many keyless access transmitters remain in
the vehicle interior. If at least one keyless access
transmitter has been removed from the interior of the
vehicle, the doors will lock after a short delay.For example, if there are two keyless access
transmitters in the vehicle and one is removed, the
other will be locked in. The keyless access transmitter
locked in the vehicle can still be used to start the vehicle
or unlock the doors, if needed. A person approaching
the outside of the locked vehicle without an authorized
keyless access transmitter, however, will not be able
to open the door, even with a transmitter in the vehicle.
You may temporarily disable the passive door locking
feature by pressing the door unlock switch for
three seconds on an open door. Passive door locking
will then remain disabled until a door lock switch is
pressed or until the power mode transitions from the
off power mode.
Press the OPTION button until PASSIVE DOOR
LOCKING appears on the display, then press the
RESET button to scroll through the following modes:
OFF (default)
SILENT
HORN
If you choose OFF, this option will turn off.
If you choose SILENT, the doors will automatically lock
a short time after you remove a keyless access
transmitter from the interior of the vehicle and close
both doors.
