A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. This system
consists of a Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) key fob and a
Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) with integral ignition. You
can insert the key fob into the ignition switch with either
side up.
Wireless Ignition Node (WIN)
The Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) operates similarly to an
ignition switch. It has four operating positions, three with
detents and one that is spring-loaded. The detent positions
are OFF, ACC, and ON/RUN. The START position is a
spring-loaded momentary contact position. When released
from the START position, the switch automatically returns
to the ON/RUN position.
Key Fob
The key fob operates the ignition switch. Insert the square
end of the key fob into the ignition switch located on the
instrument panel and rotate to the desired position. It also
contains the key fob and an emergency key, which stores in
the rear of the key fob.

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
This system allows you to lock or unlock the doors and
liftgate, and activate the Panic Alarm, optional power
liftgate, left power sliding door, and right power sliding
door from distances up to approximately 66 ft (20 m) using
a handheld Remote Keyless Entry key fob. The key fob
does not need to be pointed at the vehicle to activate the
system.
NOTE:Inserting the key fob into the ignition switch
disables the system from responding to any button pushes
from that key fob. Driving at speeds 5 mph (8 km/h) and
above disables the system from responding to all key fob
buttons for all key fobs.
Two key fobs may be supplied with the vehicle. Vehicles
built without the powered options will be equipped from
the factory with three-button key fobs, and those built with
power options will be equipped with up to seven-button
key fobs.
Using The Key Fob
Three-button key fobs will provide basic UNLOCK, LOCK,
and PANIC functions.
Seven-button key fobs will provide functions that allow the
same basic operation as the three-button, but may also be
used to operate the power liftgate (optional), power sliding
doors, and Remote Start feature (optional). Some features
can be programmed to the customers preferences. For
example, lights flash, or sound horn on lock.
Three-Button Key Fob

Right Power Sliding Door. If the button on the key fob is
pushed while the door is being power-closed, the door will
reverse to the full open position.

armed, pushing the RIGHT Power Sliding Door button
twice unlocks the power sliding door and disarms the
Vehicle Security Alarm.
Turn Off Flash Lights With Remote Keyless Entry

the doors are locked or unlocked with the key fob. This
feature can be turned on or turned off. To change the
current setting, proceed as follows:

play, refer to “Instrument Cluster Display/Personal Set-
tings (Customer-Programmable Features)” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.

Display, perform the following steps:
1. Perform this operation while standing outside the ve- hicle. 2. Push and hold the UNLOCK button on a programmed
key fob for at least 4 seconds, but no longer than 10
seconds. Then, push and hold the LOCK button while
still holding the UNLOCK button.
3. Release both buttons at the same time.
4. Test the feature while outside of the vehicle by Pushing the LOCK/UNLOCK buttons on the key fob with the
ignition switch in the OFF position and the key fob
removed.
5. Repeat these steps if you want to return this feature to its previous setting.
NOTE: Pushing the LOCK button on the key fob while
you are in the vehicle will activate the Vehicle Security
Alarm. Opening a door with the Vehicle Security Alarm
activated will cause the alarm to sound. Push the UN-
LOCK button to deactivate the Vehicle Security Alarm.
