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 re-
moval.
3. Remove the battery by turning the

GENERAL INFORMATION
Transmitter and receivers operate on
a carrier frequency of 433.92 MHz as
required by EEC regulations. These
devices must be certified to conform
to specific regulations in each indi-
vidual country. Two sets of regula-
tions are involved: ETS (European
Telecommunication Standard) 300–
220, which most countries use, and
German BZT federal regulation
225Z125, which is based on ETC
300–220 but has additional unique
requirements. Other defined require-
ments are noted in ANNEX VI of
COMMISSION DIRECTIVE 95/56/
EC. Operation is subject to the follow-
ing conditions:
This device may not cause harmful
interference.
This device must accept any inter- ference received, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired op-
eration. If your RKE transmitter fails to oper-
ate from a normal distance, check for
these two conditions:
1. A weak battery in the RKE trans-
mitter. The expected life of the battery
is a minimum of three years.
2. Closeness to a radio transmitter
such as a radio station tower, airport
transmitter, and some mobile or CB
radios.
DOOR LOCKS
MANUAL DOOR LOCKS
To lock each door, push the door lock
knob on each door trim panel down-
ward. To unlock the front doors, pull

If the door lock knob is down when
you shut the door, the door will lock.
Therefore, make sure the Key Fob is
not inside the vehicle before closing
the door.
WARNING!
For personal security and safetyin the event of an accident, lock
the vehicle doors before you drive
as well as when you park and
leave the vehicle.
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key fob and lock your
vehicle.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
Never leave children alone in avehicle, 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 fa-
tally 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, or in a location acces-
sible to children, and do not leave
the ignition of a vehicle equipped
with Keyless Enter-N-Go in the
ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child
could operate power windows,
other controls, or move the ve-
hicle.
POWER DOOR LOCKS
A power door lock switch is on each
front door trim panel. Use this switch
to lock or unlock the doors. The doors can also be locked and un-
locked with the Keyless Enter-N-Go
(Passive Entry) system. For further
information, refer to “Keyless Enter-
N-Go” in “Things To Know Before
Starting Your Vehicle”.
If you press the power door lock
switch while the ignition is in the ACC
or ON/RUN position, and any front
door is open, the power locks will not
operate. This prevents you from acci-
dentally locking the Key Fob in the
vehicle. Cycling the ignition to the
OFF position or closing the door will
allow the locks to operate. If a door is
open, and the ignition is in the ACC or
ON/RUN position, a chime will sound
as a reminder to remove the Key Fob.

KEYLESS ENTER-N-
GO™
The Passive Entry system is an en-
hancement to the vehicle’s Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) 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 press the RKE transmitter
lock or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
Passive Entry may be pro-grammed ON/OFF; refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it has been raining on the
Passive Entry door handle, the
unlock sensitivity can be af-
fected, resulting in a slower re-
sponse time.
If the vehicle is unlocked by the Passive Entry Door Handle and
no door goes ajar within 60 sec-
onds, the vehicle will re-lock
and if equipped will arm the
theft alarm. To Unlock From The Driver's Side
With a valid Passive Entry RKE
transmitter within 1.5 m of the driv-
er's door handle, grab the front driver
door handle to unlock the driver's
door automatically. The interior door
panel lock knob will raise when the
door is unlocked.
NOTE: If “Unlock All Doors 1st
Press” is programmed all doors
will unlock when you grab hold of
the front driver’s door handle. To
select between “Unlock Driver
Door 1st Press” and “Unlock All
Doors 1st Press”, refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel”
for further information.
To Unlock From The Passenger

transmitter within 1.5 m of the pas-
senger door handle, grab the front
passenger door handle to unlock all
four doors automatically. The interior
door panel lock knob will raise when
the door is unlocked.
NOTE: All doors will unlock
when the front passenger door
handle is grabbed regardless of the
driver’s door unlock preference
setting (“Unlock Driver Door 1st
Press” or “Unlock All Doors 1st
Press”).
Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of
Passive Entry RKE Transmitter In
Vehicle
To minimize the possibility of unin-
tentionally locking a Passive Entry
RKE transmitter inside your vehicle,
the Passive Entry system is equipped
with an automatic door unlock fea-
ture which will function if the ignition
switch is in the OFF position.
Grab The Door Handle To Unlock

If one of the vehicle doors is open and
the door panel switch is used to lock
the vehicle, once all open doors have
been closed the vehicle checks the in-
side and outside of the vehicle for any
valid Passive Entry RKE transmitters.
If one of the vehicle's Passive Entry
RKE transmitters is detected inside
the vehicle, and no other valid Passive
Entry RKE transmitters are detected
outside the vehicle, the Passive Entry
System automatically unlocks all ve-
hicle doors and chirps the horn three
times (on the third attempt ALL
doors will lock and the Passive Entry
RKE transmitter can be locked in the
vehicle).
NOTE: The vehicle will only un-
lock the doors when the doors are
locked using the door panel
switch, a valid Passive Entry RKE
transmitter is detected inside the
vehicle, and no valid Passive Entry
RKE transmitter is detected out-
side the vehicle. The vehicle will
not unlock the doors when any of
the following conditions are true: The doors are locked using the
RKE transmitter
The doors are locked using the LOCK button on the Passive En-
try door handles
The doors are manually locked using the door lock knobs
There is a valid Passive Entry RKE transmitter outside the ve-
hicle and within 1.5 m of either
Passive Entry door handle
Three attempts are made to lock the doors using the door panel
switch and then close the doors
To Enter The Trunk
With a valid Passive Entry RKE
transmitter within 1.0 m of the deck
lid, press the button on the right side
of CHMSL, (Center High Mounted
Stop Light) which is located on the
deck lid. NOTE: If you inadvertently leave
your vehicle's Passive Entry RKE
transmitter in the trunk and try to
close the deck lid, the deck lid will
automatically unlatch, unless an-
other one of the vehicle’s Passive
Entry RKE transmitters is outside
the vehicle and within 1.0 m of the
deck lid.
To Lock The Vehicle’s Doors
With one of the vehicle’s Passive En-
try RKE transmitters within 1.5 m of
the driver or passenger front door
handles, press the door handle LOCK
button to lock all four doors.

LOCK button, you must wait two
seconds before you can lock or
unlock the doors, using either
Passive Entry door handle. This
is done to allow you to check if
the vehicle is locked by pulling

hicle reacting and unlocking.
The Passive Entry system will not operate if the RKE transmit-
ter battery is dead.
The vehicle doors can also be locked

button or the lock button located on
the vehicle’s interior door panel.
WINDOWS
POWER WINDOWS
The window controls on the driver's
door control all the door windows. There are single window controls on
each passenger door trim panel,
which operate the passenger door
windows. The window controls will
operate only when the ignition is in
the ACC or ON/RUN position or when
Power Accessory Delay is active.
NOTE: For vehicles equipped
with the Uconnect®, the power
window switches will remain ac-
tive for up to 10 minutes after the
ignition is cycled to the OFF posi-
tion. Opening either front door will
cancel this feature. The time is

will reverse direction and then
go back down. Remove the ob-
stacle and use the window
switch again to close the win-
dow. Any impact due to rough road
conditions may trigger the auto-
reverse function unexpectedly
during auto-closure. If this hap-
pens, pull the switch lightly to
the first detent and hold to close
the window manually.
WARNING!
There is no anti-pinch protection
when the window is almost closed.
