a c

tivated and deactivated through the
Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect Settings”
in “Multimedia” for further information on
Remote Start Comfort system operation.
GENERAL INFORMATION

The following regulatory statement applies to all
Radio Frequency (RF) devices equipped in this
vehicle:

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
R u

les and with Innovation, Science and
Economic Development Canada license-exempt
RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:

1. T his device may not cause harmful
i
nterference, and
2. T
his device must accept any interference
r
eceived, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR
d`
Innovation, Science and Economic
Development applicables aux appareils radio
exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée
aux deux conditions suivantes:

1. l 'appareil ne doit pas produire de
b
rouillage, et

2. l 'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout
b
rouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le
brouillage est susceptible d'en compro -
mettre le fonctionnement.
La operación de este equipo está sujeta a las
s i

guientes dos condiciones:

1. e s posible que este equipo o dispositivo no
c
ause interferencia perjudicial y

2. e ste equipo o dispositivo debe aceptar
c
ualquier interferencia, incluyendo la que
pueda causar su operación no deseada. NOTE:

Changes or modifications not expressly
a p

proved by the party responsible for compli -
ance could void the user’s authority to operate
t h

e equipment.
SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents
unauthorized vehicle operation by disabling the
engine. The system does not need to be armed
or activated. Operation is automatic, regardless
of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked.
The system uses a key fob and a Keyless Push
Bu
tton Ignition, and a Radio Frequency (RF)
receiver to prevent unauthorized vehicle
operation. Therefore, only key fobs that are
programmed to the vehicle can be used to start
and operate the vehicle. If an invalid key fob
is used to attempt to start and operate the
v e

hicle, the system will not allow the engine to
crank. If an invalid key fob is used to start the
engine, the system will shut the engine off in
two seconds.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 17

After placing the ignition in the ON/RUN position,
the vehicle security light will turn on for
three seconds for a bulb check. If the light
r e

mains on after the bulb check, it indicates
that there is a problem with the electronics.
In addition, if the light begins to flash after the
b u

lb check, it indicates that someone used an
invalid key fob to start the engine. Either of these
conditions will result in the engine being shut off
after two seconds.

If the vehicle security light turns on during
no
rmal vehicle operation (vehicle running for
longer than 10 seconds), it indicates that there
is a fault in the electronics. Should this occur,
have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by
an authorized dealer.
All of the key fobs provided with your new
v e

hicle have been programmed to the vehicle
electronics.
KEY PROGRAMMING
Programming key fobs may be performed at an
authorized dealer.
REPLACEMENT KEYS
NOTE:
Only key fobs that are programmed to the
v e

hicle 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.
NOTE:
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an
a u

thorized 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. When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer system
s
e

rviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an
authorized dealer.

The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not
compatible with some aftermarket remote
starting systems. Use of these systems may
result in vehicle starting problems and loss of
security protection.
CAUTION!
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 position.
