WARNING!
•When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key
fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.

others could be seriously or fatally injured. Chil-
dren should be warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or
in a location accessible to children, and do not

child could operate power windows, other con-
trols, or move the vehicle.

may cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked car is an invitation. Always remove

The doors can also be locked and unlocked with the
Keyless Enter-N-Go (Passive Entry) system if equipped.
For further information, refer to “Keyless Enter-N-Go”
in “Getting To Know Your Vehicle.”
If you push the power door lock switch while the
ignition is in the ON/RUN position, and any front door
is open, the power locks will not operate. This prevents
you from accidentally locking the key in the vehicle.
Placing the ignition in the STOP/OFF/LOCK position
or closing the door will allow the locks to operate. If adoor is open, and the ignition is in the ON/RUN
position, a chime will sound as a reminder to remove
the key.
NOTE:
If all of the doors are closed properly, the door
locks will lock automatically when the vehicle’s speed
exceeds 12 mph (20 km/h). Refer to “Uconnect Set-
tings” in “Multimedia” for further information.
Keyless Enter-N-Go
The Passive Entry system is an enhancement to the
vehicle’s Remote Keyless Entry system and a feature of
Keyless Enter-N-Go. This feature allows you to lock and
unlock the vehicle’s door(s) without having to push the
key fob lock or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
• Passive Entry can be enabled or disabled. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further
information.

raining/snowing on the Passive Entry door handle,
the unlock sensitivity can be affected, resulting in a
slower response time.

hicle.

FOBIK-Safe only executes in vehicles with Passive
Entry. There are three situations that trigger a FOBIK-
Safe search in any Passive Entry vehicle:
•A lock request is made by a valid Passive Entry key
fob while a door is ajar.
• A lock request is made by the Passive Entry door
handle while a door is ajar.
• A lock request is made by the door panel switch
while the door is ajar.
When any of these situations occur, after all ajar doors
are shut, the FOBIK-Safe search will be executed. If it
finds a Passive Entry key fob inside the car, and it does
not find any Passive Entry key fobs outside the car, then
the car will unlock and alert the customer. NOTE:
The vehicle will only unlock the doors when a
valid Passive Entry key fob is detected inside the
vehicle, and no valid Passive Entry key fob is detected
outside the vehicle. The vehicle will not unlock the
doors when any of the following conditions are met:
• The doors are manually locked using the door lock
knobs.
• There is a valid Passive Entry key fob outside the
vehicle and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of either Passive Entry
door handle.
Emergency Unlocking Driver Door
If the Remote Keyless Entry key fob battery is low or
dead, the emergency key can be used to unlock the
driver side door lock cylinder.
To release the emergency key, proceed as follows:
1. Slide the emergency key release button to the side.
2. Remove the emergency key from the key fob with remote control housing.
