Intelligent Access
The system uses a radio frequency signal to communicate with your
vehicle and authorize your vehicle to unlock when commanded (either by
touching the inside of the driver door or front passenger exterior door
handle, by activating the exterior power trunk or liftgate button, or a
button on the transmitter itself). If excessive radio frequency interface is
present in the area, or if the transmitter battery is low, it may be
necessary to mechanically unlock your door. The mechanical key blade in
your intelligent access key can be used to open the driver’s door in this
situation. Refer toRemote Controlin this chapter for more information
on the location and use of the mechanical key blade.
REMOTE CONTROL
Intelligent Access Key
Your vehicle is equipped with two
intelligent access keys which operate
the power locks and the remote start
system. The key must be in the
vehicle to activate the push button
start system.
The intelligent access key also
contains a removable mechanical key
blade that can be used to unlock the
driver door. Slide the release on the
back of the transmitter to release the
mechanical key blade, then pull the
blade out.
Note:Your vehicle’s back-up keys
were issued with a security tag that
provides important vehicle key cut
information. Keep the tag in a safe
place for future reference.
