KEYS
Your vehicle uses keyless ignition system. The ignition
system consists of a key fob with a Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) and an ignition switch. The keyless ignition system
consists of a key fob and Keyless Enter-N-Go button.
A Word About Your Keys
The authorized dealer that sold you your new vehicle has
the key code numbers for your vehicle locks. These num-
bers can be used to order duplicate Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) key fobs. Ask your authorized dealer for these
numbers and keep them in a safe place.
Locking Doors With A Key
You can insert the key with either side up. To lock the door,
turn the key to the right. To unlock the door, turn the key
to the left. Refer to ”Body Lubrication” in Dealer Service”
in “Servicing And Maintenance” for further information.
To Unlock The Doors And Liftgate
Push and release the unlockbutton on the key fob
once to unlock the driver ’s door or twice within five
seconds to unlock all doors and liftgate. The turn signal
lights will flash to acknowledge the unlock signal. The
illuminated entry system will also turn on.
Key Fob Unlock, Driver Door/All First Press
This feature lets you program the system to unlock either
the driver ’s door or all doors on the first push of the unlock
button on the key fob. To change the current setting,
proceed as follows:
• For vehicles equipped with the instrument cluster dis-
play, refer to “Instrument Cluster Display/Personal Set-
tings (Customer-Programmable Features)” in “Getting

1. Push and hold the lock
button on a programmed
key fob for at least 4 seconds but no longer than
10 seconds. Then, push and hold the unlock
button while still holding the lockbutton.
2. Release both buttons at the same time.
3.
Test the feature while outside of the vehicle by pushing
the lock/unlock buttons on the key fob with the
ignition in the lock position and the Key removed.
4. 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 inside 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 unlock
button to deactivate the Vehicle Security Alarm.

Refer to “Sentry Key” in this section for further informa-
tion.
If you do not have a programmed key fob, contact your
authorized dealer for details.

CAUTION!
Always remove the key fobs from the vehicle and lock
all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
Key Fob-In-Ignition Reminder
Opening the driver’s door when the key is in the ignition
and the ignition position is LOCK or ACC sounds a signal
to remind you to remove the key.
NOTE:With the driver’s door open and the key in the
ignition, the power door locks will not lock, and key fob
will not function.
REMOTE STARTING SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
This system uses the key fob to remote start the
engine conveniently from outside the vehicle,
while still maintaining security. The system has a
range of approximately 328 ft (100 m). Obstruc-
tions between the vehicle and key fob may reduce this
range. NOTE:
•
The vehicle must be equipped with an automatic trans-
mission to be equipped with Remote Start.
• Obstructions between the vehicle and the key fob may
reduce this range.
How To Use Remote Start
All of the following conditions must be met before the
engine will remote start:
• Gear selector in PARK
• Doors closed
• Hood closed
• Hazard switch off
• Brake switch inactive (brake pedal not pushed)
• Ignition key removed from ignition
• Battery at an acceptable charge level
• PANIC button not pushed
• System not disabled from previous remote start event
• Vehicle Security Alarm not active

WARNING!
•Do not start or run an engine in a closed garage or
confined area. Exhaust gas contains Carbon Monox-
ide (CO) which is odorless and colorless. Carbon
Monoxide is poisonous and can cause serious injury
or death when inhaled.
• Keep key fobs away from children. Operation of the
Remote Start System, windows, door locks or other
controls could cause serious injury or death.
Remote Start Abort Message Display
The following messages will display if the vehicle fails to
remote start or exits remote start prematurely:
• Remote Start Aborted — Door Open
• Remote Start Aborted — Hood Open
• Remote Start Aborted — L/Gate Open
• Remote Start Aborted — Fuel Low
• Remote Start Aborted — System Fault
The message stays active until the ignition is placed in the
ON/RUN position.
To Enter Remote Start
Push and release the Remote Startbutton on the key
fob twice within five seconds. The vehicle doors will
lock, the parking lights will flash, and the horn will
chirp twice (if programmed). Then, the engine will start
and the vehicle will remain in the Remote Start mode for
a 15-minute cycle.
NOTE:
• The park lamps will turn on and remain on during
Remote Start mode.
• For security, power window and power sunroof opera-
tion (if equipped) are disabled when the vehicle is in the
Remote Start mode.
• If your power door locks were unlocked, Remote Start
will automatically lock the doors.
• The engine can be started two consecutive times (two
15-minute cycles) with the key fob. However, the igni-
tion must be placed in the ON/RUN position before you
can repeat the start sequence for a third cycle.
Remote Start will also cancel if any of the following occur:
• The engine stalls or RPM exceeds 2500.
24 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

•Any engine warning lamps come on.
• Low Fuel Light turns on.
• The hood is opened.
• The hazard switch is pushed.
• The transmission is moved out of PARK.
• The brake pedal is pushed.
To Exit Remote Start Mode Without Driving The
Vehicle
Push and release the Remote Startbutton one time or
allow the engine to run for the entire 15-minute cycle.
NOTE: To avoid unintentional shut downs, the system will
disable the one time push of the Remote Start
button
for two seconds after receiving a valid Remote Start
request.
To Exit Remote Start Mode And Drive The Vehicle
Before the end of the 15-minute cycle, push and release the
unlock
button on the key fob to unlock the doors and
disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm (if equipped). Then,
insert the key into the ignition and place the ignition in
the ON/RUN position.
NOTE: The ignition must be placed in the ON/RUN
position in order to drive the vehicle.
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 fobs that have an embedded electronic
chip (transponder) to prevent unauthorized vehicle opera-
tion. Therefore, only key fobs 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 someone
uses an invalid key to try to start the engine.
NOTE: A key fob that has not been programmed is also
considered an invalid key, even if it is cut to fit the ignition
or lock cylinder for that vehicle.
During normal operation, after placing the ignition in the
on 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
electronics. In addition, if the Vehicle Security Light begins
to flash after the bulb check, it indicates that someone used3
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 25

an invalid key to try to start the engine. Either of these
conditions 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 electronics. Should this
occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by an
authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not compatible
with some aftermarket remote starting systems. Use of
these systems may result in vehicle starting problems
and loss of security protection.
All of the key fobs provided with your new vehicle have
been programmed to the vehicle electronics.
Replacement Key Fobs
NOTE: Only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle
electronics can be used to start and operate the vehicle.
Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be
programmed to any other vehicle.
CAUTION!
Always remove the Sentry Keys from the vehicle and
lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an authorized
dealer or by following the customer key programming
procedure. This procedure consists of programming a
blank key fob to the vehicle electronics. A blank key fob is
one that has never been programmed.
NOTE: When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer System
serviced, bring all vehicle key fobs with you to an autho-
rized dealer.
Customer Key Programming
If you have two valid key fobs, you can program new key
fobs to the Sentry Key Immobilizer system by performing
the following procedure:
1. Cut the additional Key(s) to match the ignition and lock cylinder key code.
2. Insert the first valid key into the ignition. Place the ignition in the ON/RUN position for at least three
seconds, but no longer than 15 seconds. Then, place the
ignition in the LOCK position and remove the first key.
