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 RKE system 
uses a receiver module in the vehicle that 
wirelessly links with the key fob.
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.
This system allows you to lock or unlock the 
doors and liftgate, activate the Panic Alarm, 
optional power liftgate, left power sliding door, 
and right power sliding door from distances up 
to approximately 66 ft (20 m) using a key fob. 
When any button on the key fob is pushed, or  when any signal is being transferred between 
the key fob and the vehicle, an LED light on the 
key fob will flash as an indicator. The key fob 
does not need to be pointed at the vehicle to 
activate the system.
NOTE:
The emergency key allows for entry into the 
vehicle should the battery in the vehicle or the 
key fob become depleted. The emergency key is 
also for locking/unlocking the glove compart
-
ment. You can keep the emergency key with you 
when valet parking.

Key Fob
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:
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.
The key fob LED light brightness is designed 
for indoor light viewing, so the LED light may 
not be visible in direct sunlight. In a situation where the battery is low or fully 
depleted, a back up 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 START/STOP ignition button 
and push to operate the ignition switch.

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.

System serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you 
to an authorized dealer.
KeySense Features — If Equipped
This feature provides the vehicle owner with the 
ability to customize vehicle settings that can be 
applied to determine the driving experience for 
other drivers of the vehicle. The vehicle settings 
are protected by a unique 4-digit PIN, which the 
vehicle owner creates when accessing the 
specific settings for the first time.
KeySense also has additional features that are 
always enabled when the specific key is in use 
that cannot be set by the vehicle owner. While 
this specific key fob is in use, the vehicle will 
respond accordingly to the customized vehicle  settings and mandatory features. This includes 
enhanced driving assistance features, 
increased driver alerts, and the locking of 
certain optional features.
