IGNITION OR ACCESSORY
ON MESSAGE
Opening the driver's door when the
ignition is in ACC or ON (engine not
running), a chime will sound to re-
mind you to cycle the ignition to OFF.
In addition to the chime, the ignition
or accessory on message will display
in the cluster.
NOTE:
With the Uconnect Touch™ sys-
tem, the power window switches,
radio, power sunroof (for versions/
markets, where provided), and
power outlets will remain active
for up to 10 minutes after the igni-
tion is cycled to the OFF position.
Opening either front door will can-
cel this feature. The time for this
feature is programmable. Refer to
“Uconnect Touch™ Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
WARNING!
When leaving the vehicle, alwaysremove the key fob and lock your
vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a
vehicle, or with access to an un-
locked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a ve-
hicle unattended is dangerous for
a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fatally
injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the shift
lever.
Do not leave the key fob in or near
the vehicle, and do not leave Key-
less Enter-N-Go in the ACC or
ON/RUN mode. A child could op-
erate power windows, other con-
trols, or move the vehicle.
Do not leave children or animals
inside parked vehicles in hot
weather. Interior heat build-up
may cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked car is an invitation to
thieves. Always remove the Key Fob
from vehicle, cycle the ignition OFF
and lock all doors when leaving the
vehicle unattended.
SENTRY KEY®
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer System
prevents unauthorized vehicle opera-
tion by disabling the engine. The sys-
tem does not need to be armed or
activated. Operation is automatic, re-
gardless of whether the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
The system uses a Key Fob with Re-
mote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmit-
ter, a Keyless Ignition Node (KIN) and
a RF receiver to prevent unauthorized
vehicle operation. Therefore, only
Key Fobs that are programmed to the
vehicle can be used to start and oper-
ate the vehicle.
After placing the ignition in the ON/
RUN position, the Vehicle Security
Light will turn on for three seconds
for a bulb check. If the light remains
on after the bulb check, it indicates
13
With the ignition in the ON/RUN po-
sition, the Trunk Open symbol will
display in the instrument cluster indi-
cating that the trunk is open. The
odometer display will reappear once
the trunk is closed.
With the ignition in the OFF position,
the Trunk Open symbol will display
until the trunk is closed.
Refer to “Keyless Enter-N-Go” in
“Things To Know Before Starting
Your Vehicle” for more information
on trunk operation with the Passive
Entry feature.
TRUNK SAFETY
WARNINGWARNING!Do not allow children to have access to
the trunk, either by climbing into the
trunk from outside, or through the
inside of the vehicle. Always close the
trunk lid when your vehicle is unat-
tended. Once in the trunk, young chil-
dren may not be able to escape, even if
they entered through the rear seat. If
trapped in the trunk, children can die
from suffocation or heat stroke.
TRUNK EMERGENCY
RELEASE
As a security measure, a trunk inter-
nal emergency release lever is built
into the trunk latching mechanism. In
the event of an individual being
locked inside the trunk, the trunk can
be simply opened by pulling on the
glow-in-the-dark handle attached to
the trunk latching mechanism.
OCCUPANT RESTRAINTS
Some of the most important safety
features in your vehicle are the re-
straint systems:
Three-point lap and shoulder beltsfor the driver and all passengers
Advanced Front Air Bags for driver and front passenger
Supplemental Driver Side Knee Air Bag Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflat-
able Curtains (SABIC) for the
driver and passengers seated next
to a window
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags
An energy-absorbing steering col- umn and steering wheel
Knee bolsters/blockers for front seat occupants (for versions/
markets, where provided)
Front seat belts incorporate preten- sioners that may enhance occupant
protection by managing occupant
energy during an impact event
All seat belt systems (except the driver’s and front passenger's) in-
clude Automatic Locking Retrac-
tors (ALRs), which lock the seat
belt webbing into position by ex-
tending the belt all the way out and
then adjusting the belt to the de-
sired length to restrain a child seat
or secure a large item in a seat
If you will be carrying children too
small for adult-sized seat belts, the
seat belts or the ISOFIX feature also
can be used to hold infant and child
Trunk Emergency Release

ans, other objects that are impacted
may result in an Active Hood deploy-
ment.
Deployment Sensors And Controls
The Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC) determines if deployment of
the actuators in a frontal impact is
required. Based on the impact sensors
signals, the ORC determines when to
deploy the actuators. The impact sen-
sors are located within the front bum-
per area.
The ORC monitors the readiness of
the electronic parts of the Active Hood
system whenever the ignition switch is
in the START or ON/RUN position. If
the key is in the LOCK position, in the
ACC position, or not in the ignition,
the Active Hood system is not on and
the Active Hood will not deploy.
The ORC contains a backup power
supply system that may deploy the
actuators even if the battery loses
power or it becomes disconnected
prior to deployment.
Service Active Hood System
If the ORC has deployed the Active
Hood, or if it detects a malfunction inany part of the system, it turns on the
Air Bag Warning Light and it will
display the “SERVICE ACTIVE
HOOD” message in the Electronic Ve-
hicle Information Center (EVIC), for
versions/markets, where provided. A
single chime will sound if the Air Bag
Warning Light comes on again after
initial startup. It also includes diag-
nostics that will illuminate the Air Bag
Warning Light if a malfunction is
noted that could affect the Active
Hood system. The diagnostics also re-
cord the nature of the malfunction. If
the Air Bag Warning Light is illumi-
nated, or if “SERVICE ACTIVE
HOOD” appears in the EVIC, see
your authorized dealer.
In the event of an Active Hood deploy-
ment, the vehicle should be serviced
by an authorized dealer. The hood
hinges must be serviced and the ac-
tuator assemblies replaced to restore
system functionality.
Following an Active Hood deploy-
ment, the hood position can be tem-
porarily reset by pushing down at the
rear edge over the hood hinges as the
internal pressure of each actuator isrelieved. The temporary hood reset
position is intended to improve for-
ward driving visibility over the hood
until the vehicle can be serviced. The
temporary hood reset position will
leave the hood approximately 5 mm
above the fender surface.
The front bumper assembly may af-
fect proper operation of the Active
Hood system. The front bumper com-
ponents should be inspected for dam-
age and replaced if necessary in the
event of a frontal impact, even if it
occurs at a low rate of speed.
NOTE:
After any Active Hood deployment,
the vehicle should be taken to an
authorized dealer immediately.
