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

that there is a problem with the elec-
tronics. This condition will result in
the engine being shut off after two
seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on
during normal vehicle operation (ve-
hicle running for longer than 10 sec-
onds), it indicates that there is a fault
in the electronics. Should this occur,
have the vehicle serviced as soon as
possible by an authorized dealer.CAUTION!
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer sys-
tem is not compatible with some
after-market remote starting sys-
tems. Use of these systems may re-
sult in vehicle starting problems and
loss of security protection.
All of the Key Fobs provided with
your new vehicle have been pro-
grammed to the vehicle electronics.
REPLACEMENT KEYS
NOTE:
Only Key Fobs that are pro-
grammed to the vehicle electronics
can be used to start and operate
the vehicle. Once a Key Fob is pro- grammed to a vehicle, it cannot be
programmed to any other vehicle.
CAUTION!
 Always remove the Key Fobs from
the vehicle and lock all doors
when leaving the vehicle unat-
tended.
 For vehicles equipped with Key-
less Enter-N-Go, always remem-
ber to place the ignition in OFF.
At the time of purchase, the original
owner is provided with a four-digit
Personal Identification Number
(PIN). Keep the PIN in a secure loca-
tion. This number is required for au-
thorized dealer replacement of Key
Fobs. Duplication of Key Fobs may be
performed at an authorized dealer,
this procedure consists of program-
ming a blank Key Fob to the vehicle
electronics. A blank Key Fob is one
that has never been programmed.
NOTE:
When having the Sentry Key® Im-
mobilizer System serviced, bring
all vehicle Key Fobs with you to the
authorized dealer. CUSTOMER KEY
PROGRAMMING
Programming Key Fobs or RKE
transmitters may be performed at an
authorized dealer.
