The Key Fob operates the ignition switch. It also contains

Keyless Go (PEKG), the Key Fob will also contain a
special receiver that communicates with the vehicle.

with Non-Passive Entry/Keyless Go vehicles.
The emergency key allows for entry into the vehicle

150 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

*Cavities 11, 12, and 13 contain self-resetting fuses
(circuit breakers) that are only serviceable by an autho-
rized dealer. The cluster, the driver seat switch (if
equipped), and the memory module (if equipped) are
fused by the 25 Amp circuit breaker in Cavity 11. The
passenger seat switch (if equipped) is fused by the
25 Amp circuit breaker in Cavity 12. The door modules,
the driver power window switch, and the passenger
power window switch are fused by the 25 Amp circuit
breaker in Cavity 13. If you experience temporary or
permanent loss of these systems, see your authorized
dealer for service.
VEHICLE STORAGE
If you are leaving your vehicle dormant for more than
21 days, you may want to take these steps to protect your
battery.
•Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
•Anytime you store your vehicle, or keep it out of
service (i.e., vacation) for two weeks or more, run the
air conditioning system at idle for about five minutes
in the fresh air and high blower setting. This will
ensure adequate system lubrication to minimize the
possibility of compressor damage when the system is
started again.
