Power Door Locks — If Equipped
The power door lock switches are on each front door trim
panel. Use these switches to lock or unlock the doors.
NOTE:The key fob may not be able to be detected by the
vehicle Keyless Enter-N-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 Enter-N-Go system from starting the vehicle.
If you push the power door lock switch while the key fob
is located inside the vehicle, and any front door is open, the power locks will not operate. This prevents you from
accidentally locking your key fob in the vehicle. Removing
the key fob or closing the door will allow the locks to
operate. A chime will sound if the key fob is in the ignition
switch and a door is open, as a reminder to remove the key
fob.

and exit of the vehicle.
When configured for “Auto” mode, the Power Side Steps
will deploy when either the driver ’s or passenger ’s side
door is opened, or when the deploy setting is activated
through the touchscreen. When configured for “Store”
mode, the steps will stay in their position but can also be
deployed manually through the radio.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 5 mph (8 km/h), or if the
retract setting is selected in the touchscreen, the steps will
retract.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for addi-
tional information.
