STEERING WHEEL
LOCK — (for
versions/markets where
provided)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a
passive electronic steering wheel lock.
This lock prevents steering the vehicle
without the ignition key. If the steer-
ing wheel is moved to one of the lock
positions with the key in the off posi-
tions, the steering wheel will lock.
TO MANUALLY LOCK THE
STEERING WHEEL
With the engine running, rotate the
steering wheel one-quarter revolution
in either direction, turn off the engine
and remove the key. Turn the steering
wheel slightly in either direction until
the lock engages.
TO RELEASE THE
STEERING WHEEL LOCK
Cycle the ignition and start the en-
gine.
NOTE: If you turned the wheel to
the right to engage the lock, youmust turn the wheel slightly to the
right to disengage it. If you turned
the wheel to the left to engage the
lock, turn the wheel slightly to the
left to disengage it.
SENTRY KEY®
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer system
prevents unauthorized vehicle opera-
tion by disabling the engine. The sys-
tem does not need to be armed or
activated. Operation is automatic, re-
gardless of whether the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
The system uses a Key Fob with Re-
mote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmit-
ter, a Keyless Ignition Node (KIN) and
a RF receiver to prevent unauthorized
vehicle operation. Therefore, only
Key Fobs that are programmed to the
vehicle can be used to start and oper-
ate the vehicle.
After cycling the ignition to the ON/
RUN position, the Vehicle Security
Light will turn on for three seconds
for a bulb check. If the light remains
on after the bulb check, it indicates
that there is a problem with the elec-
tronics. In addition, if the light begins
to flash after the bulb check, it indi-
cates that someone used an invalid
Key Fob to start the engine. Either of
these conditions will result in the en-
gine being shut off after two seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on
during normal vehicle operation (ve-
hicle running for longer than 10 sec-
onds), it indicates that there is a fault
in the electronics. Should this occur,
have the vehicle serviced as soon as
possible by an authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer sys-
tem is not compatible with some
aftermarket remote starting sys-
tems. Use of these systems may re-
sult in vehicle starting problems
and loss of security protection.
All of the Key Fobs provided with
your new vehicle have been pro-
grammed to the vehicle electronics.

The Vehicle Security Alarm re-mains armed during power lift-
gate entry. Pressing the liftgate
button will not disarm the Ve-
hicle Security Alarm. If someone
enters the vehicle through the
liftgate and opens any door the
alarm will sound.
When the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed, the interior
power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.
The Vehicle Security Alarm is de-
signed to protect your vehicle; how-
ever, you can create conditions where
the system will give you a false alarm.
If one of the previously described
arming sequences has occurred, the
Vehicle Security Alarm will arm re-
gardless of whether you are in the
vehicle or not. If you remain in the
vehicle and open a door, the alarm
will sound. If this occurs, disarm the
Vehicle Security Alarm.
If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed
and the battery becomes discon-
nected, the Vehicle Security Alarm
will remain armed when the battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash, the horn will sound. If this oc-
curs, disarm the Vehicle Security
Alarm.
ILLUMINATED ENTRY
The courtesy lights will turn on when
you use the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter to unlock the
doors or open any door.
This feature also turns on the ap-
proach lighting in the outside mirrors
(for versions/markets, where pro-
vided). Refer to “Mirrors” in “Under-
standing The Features Of Your Ve-
hicle” for further information.
The lights will fade to off after ap-
proximately 30 seconds, or they will
immediately fade to off once the igni-
tion switch is turned to ON/RUN from
the OFF position.
NOTE:
The front courtesy overhead
console and door courtesy lights
will not turn off if the dimmer
control is in the “Dome ON” po-
sition (extreme top position). The illuminated entry system
will not operate if the dimmer
control is in the “dome defeat”
position (extreme bottom posi-
tion).REMOTE KEYLESS
ENTRY (RKE) (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
This system allows you to lock or un-
lock the doors and liftgate, open both
front windows, open or close the op-
tional power liftgate, left power slid-
ing door, and right power sliding door
from distances up to approximately
20 m using a hand-held RKE trans-
mitter. The RKE transmitter does not
need to be pointed at the vehicle to
activate the system.
NOTE: Inserting the RKE trans-
mitter with Integrated Key into the
ignition switch disables all but-
tons on that transmitter; however,
the buttons on the remaining
transmitters will continue to work.

2. separating RKE halves requires
screw removal and gently prying the
two halves of the RKE transmitter
apart. Make sure not to damage the
seal during removal.
3. Remove the battery by turning the

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.GENERAL INFORMATION
The RKE transmitter(s) and receivers
operate on a carrier frequency of
433.92 MHz. Operation is subject to
the following conditions:
This device may not cause harmfulinterference.

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
