unlock sensitivity can be affected, resulting in a slower
response time. •
If the vehicle is unlocked by the Passive Entry Door
Handle, and no door is opened within 60 seconds, the
vehicle will re-lock and if equipped, the security alarm
will arm.
• The key fob may not be able to be detected by the vehicle
keyless-go system if it is located next to a mobile phone,
laptop or other electronic device; these devices may
block the key fob’s wireless signal and prevent the
keyless-go system from starting the vehicle.
To Unlock From The Driver’s Side
