system recognizes the presence of a
hand on one of the front door handles. If
the detected key fob is valid, the doors
and the liftgate are unlocked (refer to the

Owner’s Manual Supplement for Passive
Entry Settings).
Note: 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.

unlocks the driver's side door, or all doors
depending on the mode set using the
Information and Entertainment System
(refer to the Information and
Entertainment System Owner’s Manual
Supplement for Passive Entry Settings). Note:
If wearing gloves, or if it has rained
and the door handle is wet, the activation
sensitivity of the Passive Entry function
may be reduced, resulting in a longer
reaction time.
