power locks will not operate. This prevents you from
accidentally locking the Key Fob in the vehicle. Remov-
ing the Key Fob or closing the door will allow the locks
to operate. If a door is open, and the ignition is in the
LOCK or ACC position, a chime will sound as a
reminder to remove the Key Fob. Automatic Door Locks

Passive Entry and no door goes ajar within 60 seconds,
the vehicle will re-lock and if equipped will arm the
theft alarm.

pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain
open or partially open positions. This is a normal
occurrence and can be minimized. If the buffeting
occurs with the rear windows open, then open the
front and rear windows together to minimize the
buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the sunroof open,
adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the buffeting or
open any window.LIFTGATE

mote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter, the Keyless

sive Entry), refer to “Keyless Enter-N-Go” in “Starting
And Driving”.
