access key in the passenger compartment
after you close the door. If your vehicle
finds a key, all of the doors will

sound, indicating that a key is inside.
In order to override the smart unlock
feature and intentionally lock the

you can lock your vehicle after all doors
are closed by pressing the lock button on
another intelligent access key or touching
the locking area on the handle with another
intelligent access key in your hand.
When you open one of the front doors and

The ignition is on.
• The ignition is off and the transmission
is not in park (P).

MANUAL LIFTGATE
WARNING: It is extremely dangerous
to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of
a vehicle. In a crash, people riding in these
areas are more likely to be seriously injured
or killed. Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not equipped
with seats and seatbelts. Make sure
everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and
properly using a seatbelt. Failure to follow
this warning could result in serious
personal injury or death. WARNING: Make sure to close and
latch the liftgate to prevent drawing
exhaust fumes into your vehicle. This will
also prevent passengers and cargo from
falling out. If you must drive with the
liftgate open, keep the vents or windows
open so outside air comes into your vehicle.
Failure to follow this warning could result
in serious personal injury.
Note: Be careful when opening or closing
the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed
area to avoid damaging the liftgate.
Note: Do not hang anything, for example
a bike rack, from the glass or liftgate. This
could damage the liftgate and its
components.
Note: Do not leave the liftgate open when
you are driving. This could damage the
liftgate and its components. Opening and Closing the Liftgate

KEYLESS ENTRY
General Information
WARNING: The system may not
function if the key is close to metal objects
or electronic devices such as cell phones.
The system will not function if:
• Your vehicle battery has no charge.
• The passive key frequencies are
jammed.
• The passive key battery has no charge.
Note: If the system does not function, you
will need to use the key blade to lock and
unlock your vehicle.
The system allows you to operate your
vehicle without the use of a key or remote
control. Passive locking and unlocking requires a
valid passive key to be located within one
of the three external detection ranges.
These are located approximately
5 ft
(1.5 m) from the front door handles and
the luggage compartment. Passive Key
Your vehicle can be locked and unlocked
with the passive key. You can use the
passive key as a remote control. See

Your vehicle does not
lock itself automatically. If you do not press
a locking button your vehicle will remain
unlocked.
Locking buttons are located on each of the
front doors.
For central locking and to arm the alarm,
press a locking button once.
Note: Your vehicle will remain locked for
approximately three seconds. When the
delay period is over, you can open the doors
again, provided the passive key is within the
respective detection range.

has locked and the alarm is armed.
Luggage Compartment
Note: The luggage compartment cannot
be closed and will pop back up with a
warning chime if the passive key is located
inside the vehicle with the doors locked.

Note:
If a second valid passive key is
located within the luggage compartment
detection range, the luggage compartment
can be closed.
Unlocking Your Vehicle
Note: When your vehicle remains locked
for longer than three days, the system will
enter an energy-saving mode. This is to
prevent your vehicle battery running out of
charge. When your vehicle is unlocked while
in this mode, the reaction time of the system
may be a little longer than normal. To exit
the energy-saving mode, unlock your
vehicle. Press a locking button once.
Note:
A valid passive key must be located
within the detection range of that door.
When you unlock your vehicle, the direction
indicators will flash to confirm your vehicle
has unlocked and the alarm has disarmed.
Unlocking Only the Driver Door
You can program the system so that only
the driver door is unlocked. See Remote
Control (page 45). If the unlocking function is reprogrammed
so that only the driver door and the luggage
compartment are unlocked the following
will occur:
•
If the driver door is the first door
opened, all the other doors will remain
locked. All the other doors can be
unlocked from inside your vehicle by
pressing the unlock button on the
instrument panel.
Disabled Keys
Any keys left inside your vehicle interior
when it is locked will be disabled.
You cannot use a disabled key to switch
the ignition on or start the engine.
You must enable all passive keys again in
order to use them.
To enable all your passive keys, unlock your
vehicle using a passive key or the remote
control unlocking function.
