KEYS
Key Fob
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. The ignition
system consists of a key fob with Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) and a START/STOP push button ignition system.
The Remote Keyless Entry system consists of a key fob and
Keyless Enter-N-Go feature if equipped.
NOTE: The key fob may not be found if it is located next to
a mobile phone, laptop or other electronic device; these
devices may block the key fob’s wireless signal.
The key fob allows you to lock or unlock the doors and
trunk from distances up to approximately 66 feet (20 m)
using a handheld key fob. The key fob does not need to be
pointed at the vehicle to activate the system.
NOTE: In the ON/RUN position, key fob commands are
disabled if the vehicle is at or above 5 mph (8 km/h).
18 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

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 directions to
follow.NOTE:
In a situation of a low or fully depleted battery, a
backup method can be used to operate the ignition switch.
Put the nose side of the key fob (side opposite of the
Emergency Key) against the ENGINE START/STOP button
and push to operate the ignition switch.
To Unlock The Doors
Push and release the unlock button on the key fob once to
unlock the driver’s door or twice within five seconds to
unlock all doors.
The turn signal lights will flash to acknowledge the unlock
signal. The illuminated entry system will also be activated.
NOTE:
All door unlock settings can be programmed to your
convenience through Uconnect Settings. Refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” for further information.
• Unlock the driver door on the first push of the key fob
unlock button.
• Unlock all doors on the first push of the key fob unlock
button.
Emergency Key Removal Process

2 — Emergency Key 20 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

NOTE:To lock the doors with passive entry, Refer to
“Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry” located in “Doors”
in “Getting To Know Your Vehicle” for further information.
If one or more doors are open, or the trunk is open, the
doors will lock. The doors will unlock automatically if the
key fob is left inside the passenger compartment, otherwise
the doors will stay locked.
Sound Horn With Lock
This feature will cause the horn to chirp when the doors are
locked with the key fob. This feature can be turned on or
turned off. To change the current setting, refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” for further information.
Using The Panic Alarm
To turn the Panic Alarm feature on or off, push the Panic
button on the key fob. When the Panic Alarm is activated,
the turn signals will flash, the horn will pulse on and off,
and the interior lights will turn on.
The Panic Alarm will stay on for three minutes unless you
turn it off by either pushing the Panic button a second time
or drive the vehicle at a speed of 15 mph (24 km/h) or
greater. NOTE:
•
The interior lights will turn off if you place the ignition
in the ACC or ON/RUN position while the Panic Alarm
is activated. However, the exterior lights and horn will
remain on.
• You may need to be less than 35 ft (11 m) from the
vehicle when using the key fob to turn off the Panic
Alarm due to the radio frequency noises emitted by the
system.
Key Fob Battery Replacement
The recommended replacement battery is one CR2032
battery.
NOTE:
• Perchlorate Material — special handling may apply. See
www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate for fur-
ther information.
• Do not touch the battery terminals that are on the back
housing or the printed circuit board.

Programming Additional Key Fobs
Programming the key fob may be performed by an autho-
rized dealer.
NOTE:
Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot
be repurposed and reprogrammed to another vehicle.
Request For Additional Remote Controls
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 programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be
programmed to any other vehicle.
WARNING!
• Always remove the key fobs from the vehicle and
lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
• For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go —
Ignition, always remember to place the ignition in
the OFF mode.

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.
