KEYS
Key Fob
WARNING!
Push the Mechanical Key Release Button
only with the key fob facing away from your
body, especially your eyes and objects that
may be damaged, such as clothing.
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system.
The ignition system consists of a key fob with
Keyless Go and a START/STOP push button
ignition system. The Remote Keyless Entry
system consists of a key fob with a mechani-
cal key and Keyless Enter-N-Go feature if
equipped.
NOTE:
The key fob may not be detected by the
vehicle if it is located next to a mobile phone,
laptop or other electronic device; these de-
vices may block the key fob’s wireless signal.
CAUTION!
The electrical components inside of the
key fob may be damaged if the key fob is
subjected to strong electrical shocks. In
order to ensure complete efficiency of the
CAUTION!
electronic devices inside of the key fob,
avoid exposing the key fob to direct sun-
light.
The key fob allows you to lock or unlock the
doors and swing gate from distances up to
approximately 66 ft (20 m) by pressing the
appropriate button on the fob. The key fob
does not need to be pointed at the vehicle to
activate the system.
NOTE:
With the ignition in ON/RUN position and
with the vehicle doors open, the lock button
will be disabled, and only the unlock button
will be enabled. All RKE commands will be
disabled once the vehicle begins moving at
5 mph (8 km/h) or above.
Backup Mode Starting
In case the ignition switch does not change
with the push of a button, the key fob may
have a low or fully depleted battery. A low key
fob battery can be verified by referring to the
instrument cluster, which will display direc-
tions to follow.

2 — Unlock Button
3 — Lock Button

NOTE:
A low key fob battery condition may be indi-
cated by a message in the instrument cluster
display, or by the LED light on the key fob. If
the LED key fob light no longer illuminates
from key fob button pushes, then the key fob
battery requires replacement.
In this situation, a back up method can be
used to operate the ignition switch. Put the
nose side of the key fob against the ENGINE
START/STOP button, and push to operate the
ignition switch.NOTE:
Improper disposal of key fob batteries may be
harmful to the environment. Please see an
authorized dealer for proper battery disposal.
To Unlock The Doors And Swing Gate
Push and release the key fob unlock button
once to unlock the driver's door only, or twice
to unlock all the doors and swing gate. When
the key fob unlock button is pushed, the
Illuminated Entry will initiate, and the turn
signal lights will flash twice.
To Lock The Doors And Swing Gate
Push and release the lock button on the key
fob to lock all doors. The turn signals will
flash, and the horn will chirp once to ac-
knowledge the lock signal.
Request For Additional 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 pro-
grammed to a vehicle, it cannot be pro-
grammed to any other vehicle.
WARNING!
• Always remove the key fobs from the
vehicle and lock all doors when leaving
the vehicle unattended.
• Always remember to place the ignition in
the OFF mode.
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at
an authorized dealer. 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 keys with
you to an authorized dealer.
• Keys must be ordered to the correct key cut
to match the vehicle locks.

times (two 15-minute cycles) with the key
fob. However, the ignition must be placed
in the ON/RUN position before you can
repeat the start sequence for a third cycle.
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
— IF EQUIPPED
The vehicle security alarm monitors the ve-
hicle doors for unauthorized entry and the
ignition switch for unauthorized operation.
When the alarm is activated, the interior
switches for door locks are disabled. The
vehicle security alarm provides both audible
and visible signals. If something triggers the
alarm, the vehicle security alarm will provide
the following audible and visible signals: the
horn will pulse, the park lamps and/or turn
signals will flash, and the vehicle security
light in the instrument cluster will flash.
To Arm The System
Follow these steps to arm the vehicle security
alarm:
1. Make sure the vehicle’s ignition is cycled
to the “OFF” position (refer to "Starting
The Engine" in "Starting And Operating"
for further information).
17

2. Perform one of the following methods to
lock the vehicle:
• Push lock on the interior power door
lock switch with the driver and/or pas-
senger door open.
• Push the lock button on the exterior
Passive Entry Door Handle with a valid
key fob available in the same exterior
zone (refer to "Keyless Enter-N-Go —
Passive Entry" in "Getting To Know Your
Vehicle" for further information).
• Push the lock button on the key fob.
3. If any doors are open, close them.
To Disarm The System
The vehicle security alarm can be disarmed
using any of the following methods:
• Push the unlock button on the key fob.
• Grasp the Passive Entry Unlock Door
Handle (if equipped, refer to "Keyless
Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry" in "Getting To
Know Your Vehicle" for further informa-
tion).• Cycle the vehicle ignition system out of the
OFF position.
NOTE:
• The driver's door key cylinder cannot arm or
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
• When the vehicle security alarm is armed,
the interior power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.
The vehicle security alarm is designed to
protect your vehicle. However, you can create
conditions where the system will give you a
false alarm. If one of the previously described
arming sequences has occurred, the vehicle
security alarm will arm regardless of whether
you are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in
the vehicle and open a door, the alarm will
sound. If this occurs, disarm the vehicle
security alarm.
If the vehicle security alarm is armed and the
battery becomes disconnected, the vehicle
security alarm will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
DOORS
CAUTION!
Careless handling and storage of the re-
movable door panels may damage the
seals, causing water to leak into the vehi-
cle’s interior.

fere with the key fob’s wireless signal and
prevent the passive entry system from
locking/unlocking the vehicle.
• Passive Entry Unlock initiates illuminated
approach (Low Beams, License Plate
Lamp, Position Lamps) for whichever time
duration is set between 0, 30 (default),
60 or 90 seconds. Passive Entry Unlock
also initiates two flashes of the turn signal
lamps.
• If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it has
been raining/snowing on the Passive Entry
door handle, the unlock sensitivity can be
affected, resulting in a slower response
time.
• If the vehicle is unlocked by Passive Entry
and no door is opened within 60 seconds,
the vehicle will re-lock and if equipped will
arm the security alarm.

locking a Passive Entry key fob inside your
vehicle, the Passive Entry system is equipped
with an automatic door unlock feature which
will function only if the ignition switch is in
the OFF position.
FOBIK-Safe only executes in vehicles with
passive entry. There are three situations that
trigger a FOBIK-Safe search in any passive
entry vehicle:
• A lock request is made by a valid Passive
Entry key fob while a door is open.
