GENERAL INFORMATION ON
RADIO FREQUENCIES
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules and with Licence exempt RSS
Standards of Industry Canada. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:
•
This device may not cause harmful
interference, and
• This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation. WARNING: Changes or modifications
not expressively approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the
user's authority to operate the equipment.
The term "IC:" before the radio certification
number only signifies that Industry Canada
technical specifications were met. The typical operating range for your
transmitter is approximately 33 ft (10 m).
Vehicles with the remote start feature will
have a greater range. One of the following
could cause a decrease in operating range:
• weather conditions
• nearby radio towers
• structures around the vehicle
• other vehicles parked next to your
vehicle
Other short-distance radio transmitters, such
as amateur radios, medical equipment,
wireless headphones, remote controls and
alarm systems may operate on the same
frequency as your remote control. If other
transmitters are operating on those
frequencies, you may not be able to use your
remote control. Using your remote control
near some types of electronic equipment,
such as USB devices, computers or cell
phones can interfere with remote operation.
Operating your remote control near metal or
metallic-finished purses, bags or clothing can
interfere with remote operation. You can lock
and unlock the doors with the key. Note:
Make sure to lock your vehicle before
leaving it unattended.
Note: If you are in range, the remote control
will operate if you press any button
unintentionally.
Intelligent Access
The system uses a radio frequency signal to
communicate with your vehicle and authorize
your vehicle to unlock when one of the
following conditions are met:
• You touch the inside of any exterior door
handle within
3 ft (1 m) proximity of an
intelligent access key.
• You press the luggage compartment
button.
• You press a button on the transmitter.
If excessive radio frequency interference is
present in the area or if the transmitter
battery is low, you may need to mechanically
unlock your door. You can use the
mechanical key blade in your intelligent
access key to open the driver door in this
situation.
See Remote Control (page 64).

Remote Starting your Vehicle
Note:
You must press each button within
three seconds of each other. If you do not
follow this sequence, your vehicle does not
start remotely, the direction indicators do
not flash twice and the horn does not sound. 1. Press the lock button to lock all the
doors.
2. Press the remote start button twice. The
exterior lamps flash twice.
A tone sounds if the system fails to start.
Note: You must press the push button
ignition switch on the instrument panel once
while applying the brake pedal before
driving your vehicle. The power windows do not work during
remote start and the radio does not turn on
automatically.
The parking lamps remain on and your
vehicle will run for 5, 10 or 15 minutes,
depending on the setting.
Extending the Engine Running Time
To extend the engine running time duration
of your vehicle during remote start, repeat
steps 1 and 2 while the engine is running. If
the duration is set to 15 minutes, the duration
extends by another 15 minutes. For example,
if your vehicle had been running from the
first remote start for 5 minutes, your vehicle
continues to run now for a total of 30
minutes. You can extend the engine running
time duration to a maximum of 30 minutes.
Wait at least five seconds before remote
starting after the engine stops running.
Turning Your Vehicle Off After Remote
Starting
Press the button once. Your
vehicle and the parking lamps turn
off.You may have to be closer to your vehicle
than when starting due to ground reflection
and the added noise of your running vehicle.
You can switch this feature on or off in the
information display. See General
Information (page 112).
Memory Feature
You can program your intelligent access key
to recall memory positions.
See Memory
Function (page 160).
REPLACING A LOST KEY OR
REMOTE CONTROL
Replacement keys or remote controls can
be purchased from an authorized dealer.
Authorized dealers can program remote
controls for your vehicle.
See Passive
Anti-Theft System (page 83).

LOCKING AND UNLOCKING
Your vehicle has an intelligent electronically
controlled door system that is in constant
communication with overall vehicle systems.
When you lock your vehicle using the lock
switch on each door interior trim panel, or
by using the keyless entry keypad or the lock
sensor on each door exterior trim panel, the
exterior door handle switches do not release
the doors. This helps to secure your vehicle
and prevent unauthorized entry. Also, when
your vehicle reaches a speed greater than
12 mph (20 km/h) the exterior door handle
switches do not release the doors.
If the airbags deploy or the fuel pump shutoff
switch activates, all interior and exterior
unlock switches do not unlock your door for
six seconds. This helps to secure the doors
in the event of a crash. After six seconds, all
switches reset and you can open the doors
using the interior and exterior unlatch
switches. Door Lock Indicator
An LED on each front door window trim
illuminates when you lock the doors. It
remains on for 2 to 5 seconds after you
switch the ignition off.
Door Lock Switch Inhibitor
When you electronically lock your vehicle,
the door lock switches and the interior
luggage compartment release switch do not
operate after 20 seconds. You must unlock
your vehicle with the remote control or
keyless entry keypad, or switch the ignition
on, to restore function to these switches.
You can switch this feature on or off in the
information display.
See General
Information (page 112).
Activating Intelligent Access
The intelligent access key must be within 3 ft
(1 m)
of the door or luggage compartment
you intend to lock or unlock. At a Door
68
Continental (CPL) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 201807, Second-Printing Doors and LocksE222428
Electronic door handles are on each door.
Gently depress the switch inside the exterior
door handle to unlock and open the door.
An unlock symbol illuminates on the door
window trim indicating your vehicle is
unlocked. Locking sensors are on both front doors.
When the intelligent access key is within 3 ft
(1 m) of your vehicle you can lock your
vehicle by touching the locking sensor below
the keyless entry keypad. Doing so causes
a lock symbol to illuminate on the door
window trim indicating your vehicle is locked
and you can no longer release the door using
the exterior door handle switches. Touching
the locking sensor when the intelligent
access key is not within 3 ft (1 m) causes the
lock status to display, but does not lock the
doors.
Swipe across the locking sensor to display
the current lock status of your vehicle. The
lock status also displays when you open a
door or when the lock status changes.
Note: You cannot use the locking sensors
to unlock your vehicle.
