Unlock.
A
Lock.
B
Door Lock Indicator
An LED on each door window trim lights
when you lock the door. It remains lit for
up to 10 minutes after you switch off the

Switch Inhibitor
When you electronically lock your vehicle,
the power door lock button and interior
luggage compartment release button, after
20 seconds, no longer operate. You must
unlock your vehicle with the remote control
or keyless keypad, or switch on the ignition,
to restore function to these buttons. You
can switch this feature on or off in the
information display. See General
Information (page 83). Remote Control
You can use the remote control at any
time. The luggage compartment release
button only works when your vehicle speed
is less than
5.0 mph (8 km/h).
You can link your remote control to
memory seat and mirror positions, if
equipped. See
Memory Function (page
111).
Unlocking the Doors (Two-Stage
Unlock) Press the button to unlock the
driver door.
Press the button again within
three seconds to unlock all doors. The
directional indicators flash.
Press and hold both the lock and unlock
buttons on the remote control for three
seconds to change between driver-door
or all-door unlock mode. The direction
indicators flash twice to indicate a change
to the unlocking mode. Driver-door unlock
mode only unlocks the driver door when
you press the unlock button once. All-door
unlock mode unlocks all doors with one
press of the unlock button. The unlocking
mode applies to the remote control,
keyless entry keypad and intelligent

Mislock
If any door or the luggage compartment is
open, or if the hood is open on vehicles
with an anti-theft alarm or remote start,
the horn sounds twice and the directional
indicators do not flash. You can enable or
disable this feature in the information
display. See General Information (page
83).
Opening the Luggage Compartment Press twice within three seconds
to open the luggage
compartment.

Pull an exterior door handle to unlock and
open the door. Make sure not to touch the
lock sensor on top of the handle. Touch the top of the door handle to lock
your vehicle. There is a brief delay before
you can unlock your vehicle again. Note:
Keep the door handle surface clean
to avoid issues with operation.
At the Luggage Compartment Press the exterior release button hidden

Smart Unlocks
This feature helps to prevent you from
unintentionally locking your intelligent
access key inside your vehicle
’s passenger
compartment or luggage compartment.
When you electronically lock your vehicle
(with any door open, vehicle in park and
ignition off), your vehicle searches for an
intelligent access key in the passenger
compartment after you close the last door.
If your vehicle finds a key, all of the doors
immediately unlock and the horn sounds
twice, indicating that a key is inside.
You can override the smart unlock feature
and intentionally lock the intelligent access
key inside your vehicle. To do this, lock your
vehicle after you have closed all the doors
by:
• Using the keyless entry keypad.
• Pressing the lock button on another
intelligent access key.
• Touching the locking area on the
handle with another intelligent access
key in your hand.

It will also illuminate momentarily when
you switch the ignition on to confirm the
lamp is functional. If it does not illuminate
when you switch the ignition on, or begins
to flash at any time, have the system
checked by your authorized dealer.
Parking Lamps
It will illuminate when you switch
the parking lamps on.
Service Engine Soon If the service engine soon
indicator light stays illuminated
after the engine is started, it
indicates that the On Board Diagnostics
system (OBD) has detected a malfunction
of the vehicle emissions control system.
Refer to On board diagnostics (OBD) in
the Fuel and Refueling chapter for more
information about having your vehicle
serviced. See Emission Control System
(page 131).
If the light is blinking, engine misfire is
occurring which could damage your
catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate
fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and
deceleration) and have your vehicle
serviced immediately.
Note: Under engine misfire conditions,
excessive exhaust temperatures could
damage the catalytic converter or other
vehicle components.
The service engine soon indicator light
illuminates when the ignition is first turned
on prior to engine start to check the bulb
and to indicate whether the vehicle is ready
for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testing. Normally, the service engine soon light will
stay on until the engine is cranked, then
turn itself off if no malfunctions are
present. However, if after 15 seconds the
service engine soon light blinks eight times,
it means that the vehicle is not ready for
I/M testing. See
Emission Control
System (page 131).
Stability Control It will flash when the system is
active. If it remains illuminated
or does not illuminate when you
switch the ignition on, this indicates a
malfunction. During a malfunction the
system will switch off. Have the system
checked by your authorized dealer
immediately. See
Using Stability
Control (page 144).
Stability Control Off It will illuminate when you switch
the system off. It will go out
when you switch the system
back on or when you switch the ignition
off. See
Using Stability Control (page
144).

your vehicle with the intelligent access key
