A WORD ABOUT YOUR
KEYSYour vehicle uses a keyless ignition
system. This system consists of a KeyFob with Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter and a Keyless Ignition
Node (KIN).Keyless Enter­N­Go™ Feature
This vehicle is equipped with the Key-
less Enter­N­Go™ feature, (refer to
"Keyless Enter-N-Go" in "Things To
Know Before Starting Your Vehicle"
for further information).
KEYLESS IGNITION NODE
(KIN)
This feature allows the driver to oper-
ate the ignition switch with the push
of a button, as long as the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter is in
the passenger compartment.
The Keyless Ignition Node (KIN) has
four operating positions, three of
which are labeled and will illuminate
when in position. The three positionsare OFF, ACC, and ON/RUN. The
fourth position is START. During start
RUN will illuminate.
NOTE: In case the ignition switch
does not change with the push of a
button, the RKE transmitter (Key
Fob) may have a low or dead bat-
tery. In this situation a back up
method can be used to operate the
ignition switch. Put the nose side
(side opposite of the emergency
key) of the Key Fob against the
ENGINE START/STOP button and
push to operate the
ignition switch.
KEY FOB
The Key Fob also contains the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and
an emergency key, which stores in the
rear of the Key Fob.
The emergency key allows for entry
into the vehicle should the battery in
the vehicle or the Key Fob go dead. The
emergency key is also for locking the
glove box. You can keep the emergency
key with you when valet parking.
To remove the emergency key, slide the
mechanical latch on the back of the
Key Fob sideways with your thumb
and then pull the key out with your
other hand.NOTE:
You can insert the double-
sided emergency key into the lock
cylinders with either side up.

Turn Headlights On With Remote
Key UnlockThis feature activates the headlights
for up to 90 seconds when the doors
are unlocked with the RKE trans-
mitter. The time for this feature is
programmable on vehicles equipped
through Uconnect Touch™. To change
the current setting, refer to “Uconnect
Touch™ Settings” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” for further in-
formation.TO LOCK THE DOORS
Press and release the LOCK button on
the RKE transmitter to lock all doors.
The turn signal lights will flash to
acknowledge the signal.If the vehicle is equipped with Passive
Entry, refer to “Keyless Enter-N-Go”
under “Things To Know Before Starting
Your Vehicle” for further information.TO UNLATCH THE TRUNK
Press the TRUNK button on the RKE
transmitter two times within five sec-
onds to unlatch the trunk.
If the vehicle is equipped with Passive
Entry, refer to “Keyless Enter-N-Go”
under “Things To Know Before Starting
Your Vehicle” for further information.TRANSMITTER BATTERY
REPLACEMENT
The recommended replacement bat-
tery is one CR2032 battery.
NOTE:
 Perchlorate Material — specialhandling may apply. Batteries
could contain dangerous mate-
rials. Please dispose of them ac-
cording to respect for environ-
ment and local laws.
 Do not touch the battery termi- nals that are on the back hous-
ing or the printed circuit board.
1. Remove the emergency key by
sliding the mechanical latch on the
back of the RKE transmitter sideways
with your thumb and then pull the
key out with your other hand. 2.
Insert the tip of the emergency key
or a #2 flat blade screwdriver into the
slot and gently pry the two halves of
the RKE transmitter apart. Make sure
not to damage the seal during removal.
3. Remove the battery by turning the
back cover over (battery facing down-
ward) and tapping it lightly on a solid
surface such as a table or similar, then
replace the battery. When replacing
the battery, match the + sign on the
battery to the + sign on the inside of
the battery clip, located on the back
cover. Avoid touching the new battery
with your fingers. Skin oils may cause
battery deterioration. If you touch a
battery, clean it with rubbing alcohol.
4. To assemble the RKE transmitter
case, snap the two halves together.Prying The Two Halves Of The RKE Transmitter Apart

The SAB fully inflate in about 10 milli-
seconds. The side air bag moves at a
very high speed and with such a high
force that it could injure you if you are
not seated properly, or if items are
positioned in the area where the side
air bag inflates. This especially ap-
plies to children.
Supplemental Side Air Bag
Inflatable Curtain (SABIC)
Inflator Units
During collisions where the impact is
confined to a particular area of the
side of the vehicle, the ORC may de-
ploy the SABIC air bags, depending
on the severity and type of collision.
In these events, the ORC will deploy
the SABIC only on the impact side of
the vehicle.
A quantity of non-toxic gas is gener-
ated to inflate the side curtain air bag.
The inflating side curtain air bag
pushes the outside edge of the head-
liner out of the way and covers the
window. The air bag inflates in about
30 milliseconds (about one-quarter of
the time that it takes to blink your
eyes) with enough force to injure youif you are not belted and seated prop-
erly, or if items are positioned in the
area where the side curtain air bag
inflates. This especially applies to
children. The side curtain air bag is
only about 9 cm thick when it is in-
flated.
Because air bag sensors estimate de-
celeration over time, vehicle speed
and damage are not good indicators of
whether or not an air bag should have
deployed.
NOTE: In a rollover the preten-
sioners and/or SAB and SABIC air
bags may deploy on both sides of
the vehicle.
Front And Side Impact Sensors
In front and side impacts, impact sen-
sors can aid the ORC in determining
appropriate response to impact events.Enhanced Accident Response
System
In the event of an impact causing air
bag deployment, if the communica-
tion network remains intact, and the
power remains intact, depending on
the nature of the event the ORC willdetermine whether to have the En-
hanced Accident Response System
perform the following functions:
 Cut off fuel to the engine.
 Flash hazard lights as long as the
battery has power or until the igni-
tion is cycled off.

Turn on the interior lights, which
remain on as long as the battery has
power or until the ignition key is
removed. Unlock the doors automatically.
In order to reset the Enhanced Acci-
dent Response System functions after
an event, the ignition switch must be
changed from IGN ON to IGN OFF.
If A Deployment Occurs
The Advanced Front Air Bags are
designed to deflate immediately after
deployment.
NOTE:
Front and/or side air bags
will not deploy in all collisions.
This does not mean something is
wrong with the air bag system.

NOTE:
If the ignition switch is
left in the ACC or RUN (engine not
running) position and the trans-
mission is in PARK, the system
will automatically time out after
30 minutes of inactivity and the
ignition will switch to the OFF
position.
ENGINE START/STOP Button
Functions – With Driver’s Foot
OFF The Brake Pedal (In PARK
Or NEUTRAL Position)
The Keyless Enter-N-Go feature oper-
ates similar to an ignition switch. It
has four positions, OFF, ACC, RUN
and START. To change the ignition
switch positions without starting the
vehicle and use the accessories follow
these steps.
 Starting with the ignition switch in the OFF position:
 Press the ENGINE START/STOP button once to change the ignition
switch to the ACC position (ACC
will illuminate),  Press the ENGINE START/STOP
button a second time to change the
ignition switch to the RUN position
(RUN will illuminate),
 Press the ENGINE START/STOP button a third time to return the
ignition switch to the OFF position
(OFF will illuminate).
EXTREME COLD
WEATHER (BELOW 29°C)
To ensure reliable starting at these
temperatures, use of an externally
powered electric engine block heater
is recommended.
IF ENGINE FAILS TO
START
WARNING!
 Never pour fuel or other flam- mable liquids into the throttle
body air inlet opening in an at-
tempt to start the vehicle. This
could result in a flash fire causing
serious personal injury.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
 Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to get it started. Ve-
hicles equipped with an auto-
matic transmission cannot be
started this way. Unburned fuel
could enter the catalytic con-
verter and once the engine has
started, ignite and damage the
converter and vehicle.
 If the vehicle has a discharged battery, booster cables may be
used to obtain a start from a
booster battery or the battery in
another vehicle. This type of start
can be dangerous if done improp-
erly. Refer to “Jump Starting” in
“What To Do In Emergencies” for
further information.
