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
To Know Your Instrument Panel” for further informa-
tion.

NOTE:If you try to remove the key before you place the
gear selector in PARK, the key may become trapped tempo-
rarily in the ignition. If this occurs, place the gear selector in
PARK, rotate the key clockwise slightly, and then remove the
key as described above. If a malfunction occurs, the system
will trap the key in the ignition to warn you that this safety
feature is inoperable. The engine can be started and stopped
but the key cannot be removed until you obtain service.
WARNING!
• Before exiting a vehicle, always shift the automatic
transmission into PARK or the manual transmission
into FIRST gear or REVERSE, apply the parking
brake, turn the engine OFF, remove the key fob from
the ignition and lock your vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.
• Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or others
could be seriously or fatally injured. Children
should be warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in
a location accessible to children. A child could oper-
ate power windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle.
• Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up may
cause serious injury or death.

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
