CAUTION!
•Always remove the Key Fobs from the vehicle and
lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unat-
tended.
• For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go,
always remember to place the ignition in the OFF
position.
At the time of purchase, the original owner is provided
with a four-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN).
Keep the PIN in a secure location. This number is
required for authorized dealer replacement of RKE Key
Fobs. Duplication of RKE Key Fobs may be performed at
an authorized dealer. This procedure consists of pro-
gramming a blank RKE Key Fob to the vehicle electron-
ics. A blank RKE Key Fob is one that has never been
programmed. NOTE:
When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer System
serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an authorized
dealer.
KeySense Features — If Equipped
This feature provides the vehicle owner with the ability
to identify a specific vehicle key for which a customized
category of vehicle settings can be applied to determine
the driving experience for other drivers of the vehicle.
The vehicle settings are protected by a unique 4-digit
PIN, which the vehicle owner creates when accessing the
specific settings for the first time.
This feature also has additional features that are always
enabled when the specific key is in use that cannot be set
by the vehicle owner. While this specific RKE Key Fob is
in use, the vehicle will respond accordingly to the cus-
tomized vehicle settings and mandatory features. This
includes enhanced driving assistance features, increased
driver alerts, and the locking of certain optional features.

SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents unauthor-
ized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The
system does not need to be armed or activated. Operation
is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is locked
or unlocked.
The system uses Key Fob with factory-mated Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter (RKE Key Fob) to pre-
vent unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore, only
RKE Key Fob that are programmed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate the vehicle. The system will
shut the engine off in two seconds if an invalid Key Fob
is used to start the engine.
After turning the ignition switch to the ON/RUN posi-
tion, 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
electronics. In addition, if the light begins to flash after
the bulb check, it indicates that someone used an invalid
RKE Key Fob to start the engine. Either of these condi-
tions will result in the engine being shut off after two
seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during normal
vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than 10
seconds), it indicates that there is a fault in the electron-
ics. Should this occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon
as possible by an authorized dealer.
