If there is a decrease in the RKE
operating range:
.Check the distance. The
transmitter may be too far from
the vehicle.
.Check the location. Other
vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal.
.Check the transmitter's battery.

.If the transmitter is still not
working correctly, see your
dealer/retailer or a qualified
technician for service.
Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) System Operation
The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter will work up to 60 m
(195 feet) away from the vehicle.
There are other conditions which
can affect the performance of the
transmitter. See Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) System on page 1‑3.

Programming Transmitters
to the Vehicle
Only RKE transmitters programmed
to this vehicle will work. If a
transmitter is lost or stolen, a
replacement can be purchased and
programmed through your dealer/
retailer. When the replacement
transmitter is programmed to this
vehicle, all remaining transmitters
must also be reprogrammed. Any
lost or stolen transmitters will no
longer work once the new
transmitter is programmed.
Battery Replacement
Replace the battery if the “Replace
Battery in Remote Key” message
displays in the DIC. See “Replace
Battery in Remote Key” underKey
and Lock Messages on page 4‑33.
The battery is not rechargeable.
See your dealer/retailer to replace
the battery.
Keys, Doors and Windows 1-5
Remote Vehicle Start
The vehicle may have this feature
that allows you to start the engine
from outside the vehicle.
/(Remote Vehicle Start):
This button will be on the RKE
transmitter if the vehicle has remote
start. To enable and disable remote
start, see “Remote Vehicle Start”
under Vehicle Personalization
on
page 4‑36.
Vehicles with an automatic climate
control system will default to a
heating or cooling mode depending
on the outside temperature during a
remote start. Once the key is turned
to ON/RUN, the system will turn on
at the setting the vehicle was last
set to.
Laws in some local communities
may restrict the use of remote
starters. For example, some laws
require a person using remote start
to have the vehicle in view. Check
local regulations for any
requirements. There are other conditions which
can affect the performance of the
transmitter, see
Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) System
on page 1‑3for additional information.
Starting the Engine Using
Remote Start
To start the engine using the remote
start feature:
1. Press
Qon the RKE transmitter.
2. Press and hold /for about
two seconds. The turn signal
lamps will briefly flash to confirm
the vehicle has been started.
The parking lamps will turn on
and remain on as long as the
engine is running. The vehicle's
doors will be locked.
3. The key must be inserted and turned to ON/RUN before
driving.
The engine will shut off after
10 minutes unless a time
extension is done or the key is
inserted and turned to ON/RUN. Extending Engine Run Time
For a 10-minute extension, repeat
Steps 1 and 2 while the engine is
still running. The remote start can
be extended once.
When the remote start is extended,
the second 10 minutes will start
immediately.
For example, if the engine has been
running for five minutes, and
10 minutes are added, the engine
will run for a total of 15 minutes.
A maximum of two remote starts or
remote start attempts are allowed
between ignition cycles.
The vehicle's ignition switch must
be turned to ON/RUN and then back
to LOCK/OFF using the key, before
the remote start procedure can be
used again.
Keys, Doors and Windows 1-11
Press and release&on the
liftgate adjacent to the latch to close
the liftgate.
Pressing any button, or the
touchpad switch while the liftgate is
moving stops it. Pressing the button
or RKE switch again reverses the
direction. The touch pad switch will
stop the liftgate from moving. There
is a minimum distance that the
power liftgate must already be open
for the system to hold it open.
If movement is stopped below that
minimum the liftgate closes. Do not force the liftgate open or
closed during a power cycle.
The power liftgate may be
temporarily disabled under extreme
temperatures or low battery
conditions. If this occurs, the liftgate
can still be operated manually.
If you shift the transmission out of
P (Park) while the power function is
in progress, the liftgate power
function will continue to completion.
If you shift the transmission out of
P (Park) and accelerate before the
power liftgate latch is closed, the
liftgate may reverse to the open
position. Cargo could fall out of the
vehicle. Always make sure the
power liftgate is closed and latched
before you drive away.
If you power open the liftgate and
the liftgate support struts have lost
pressure, the turn signals flash and
a chime sounds. The liftgate stays
open temporarily, then slowly
closes. See your dealer/retailer for
service before using the liftgate.
Obstacle Detection Features
If the liftgate encounters an obstacle
during a power open or close cycle,
a warning chime will sound and the
liftgate will automatically reverse
direction to the full closed or open
position. After removing the
obstruction, the power liftgate
operation can be used again. If the
liftgate encounters multiple
obstacles on the same power cycle,
the power function will deactivate.
The
“Manually Close Power Liftgate”
warning message in the Driver
Information Center (DIC) will
display. After removing the
obstructions, the liftgate will resume
normal power operation.
Your vehicle has pinch sensors
located on the side edges of the
liftgate. If an object is caught
between the liftgate and the body
and presses against this sensor, the
liftgate will reverse direction and
open fully. The liftgate will remain
open until it is activated again or
closed manually.
1-12 Keys, Doors and Windows
Setting the Power Liftgate
3/4 Mode
To change the liftgate stop position:
1. Turn the liftgate switch to the3/4 mode position and power
open the liftgate.
2. Stop the liftgate movement at the desired height by pressing
any switch.
3. Press and hold the button on the liftgate adjacent to the latch until
the turn signals flash and a beep
sounds to indicate that the new
setting is recorded.
When power opened with the
3/4 mode selected, the liftgate
stops at the new set position.
There is a minimum that the power
liftgate must already be open for the
system to hold it open. The liftgate
cannot be set to stop below that
minimum.
Manual Operation of Power
Liftgate
To change the liftgate to manual
operation, turn the mode switch to
the OFF position.
With the power liftgate disabled and
all of the doors unlocked, the liftgate
can be manually opened and
closed. Manual operation of a
liftgate that also has power
operation requires more effort than
with a standard manual liftgate.
To open the liftgate, press the
touchpad on the handle on the
outside of the liftgate, and lift the
gate open. To close the liftgate, use
the pull cup to lower the liftgate and
close. With the power liftgate
disabled the liftgate electric latch
will still power latch once contact is
made with the striker. Always close
the liftgate before driving. If the RKE button is pressed while
power operation is disabled, the turn
signals flash and the liftgate will
not move.
The liftgate has an electric latch.
If the battery is disconnected or
has low voltage, the liftgate will not
open. The liftgate will resume
operation when the battery is
reconnected and charged.

Compass
The vehicle may have a compass
display on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). The compass
receives its heading and other
information from Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna, StabiliTrak,
and vehicle speed information.
Avoid covering the GPS antenna for
long periods of time with objects
that may interfere with the antenna's
ability to receive a satellite signal.
SeeMulti-Band Antenna
on
page 6‑18for the location of the
vehicle's antennas. The compass
system is designed to operate for a
certain number of miles or degrees
of turn before needing a signal from
the GPS satellites. When the
compass display shows CAL, drive
the vehicle for a short distance in
an open area where it can receive a
GPS signal. The compass system
will automatically determine when GPS signal is restored and provide
a heading again. See
Compass
Messages
on page 4‑30for more
information on the messages that
may be displayed for the compass.
