the system will trap the key in the ignition
switch to warn you that this safety feature
is inoperable. The engine can be started
and stopped, but the Key Fob cannot be
removed until you obtain service.
•
The power window switches, radio, power
sunroof (if equipped), and power outlets will
remain active for up to 10 minutes after the
ignition switch is turned to the OFF position.
Opening either front door will cancel this
feature. The time for this feature is program-
mable. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)/Personal Settings
(Customer-Programmable Features)” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument Panel” for fur-
ther information.
CAUTION!
• If your vehicle battery becomes low or
dead, your Key Fob will become locked in
the ignition.

or the shift lever.
•Do not leave the Key Fob in or near the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil-
dren, and do not leave a vehicle equipped
