GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
KEYS 
Key Fob
Key FobYour  vehicle  uses  a  keyless  ignition  system.
The ignition system consists of a key fob with
Keyless Go  and a START/STOP push button
ignition  system.  The  Remote  Keyless  Entry
(RKE)  system  consists  of  a  key  fob  with  a
mechanical  key  and  Keyless  Enter-N-Go
feature (if equipped).
NOTE:
The  key  fob  may  not  be  detected  by  the
vehicle 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  swing  gate  from  distances  up  to
approximately  66 ft  (20 m).  The  key  fob
does not need to be pointed at the vehicle to
activate the system. NOTE:
With  the  ignition  in  the  ON/RUN  position
and  with  the  vehicle  doors  open,  the  lock
button will be disabled, and only the unlock
button  will  be  enabled.  All  RKE  commands
will  be  disabled  once  the  vehicle  begins
moving at 2 mph (4 km/h) or above.
Backup Mode Starting
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 direc
-
tions 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.
1 — Key Release Button
2 — Unlock Button
3 — Lock Button
4 — Remote Start
 WARNING!
Push  the  Mechanical  Key  Release  Button
only  with  the  key  fob  facing  away  from
your body, especially your eyes and objects
that may be damaged, such as clothing.
 CAUTION!
The  electrical  components  inside  of  the  key
fob  may  be  damaged  if  the  key  fob  is
subjected  to  strong  electrical  shocks.  In
order  to  ensure  complete  efficiency  of  the
electronic  devices  inside  of  the  key  fob,
avoid exposing the key fob to direct sunlight.

In this situation, a back up method can be used
to operate the ignition switch. Put the nose side
of the key fob against the START/STOP ignition
button, and push to operate the ignition switch.
Backup Starting Method
NOTE:
Improper  disposal  of  key  fob  batteries  may
be harmful to the environment. Please see an
authorized dealer for proper battery disposal.
To Unlock The Doors And Swing Gate
Push  and  release  the  key  fob  unlock button
once to unlock the driver's door only, or twice
to unlock all the doors and swing gate. When
the key fob unlock button is pushed, the Illu -
minated  Entry  will  initiate,  and  the  turn
signal lights will flash twice.
To Lock The Doors And Swing Gate
Push and release the lock button on the key
fob  to  lock  all  doors.  The  turn  signals  will
flash,  and  the  horn  will  chirp  once  to
acknowledge the lock signal.
Request For Additional Key Fobs  
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.
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. NOTE:
When  having  the  Sentry  Key  Immobilizer
System  serviced,  bring  all  vehicle  keys
with you to an authorized dealer.
Keys  must  be  ordered  to  the  correct  key
cut to match the vehicle locks.
IGNITION SWITCH  
Keyless Enter-N-Go — Ignition
This feature allows the  driver  to  operate  the
ignition switch with  the push of a  button as
long  as  the  key  fob  is  in  the  passenger
compartment.
The Keyless Push Button Ignition has several
operating  modes  that  are  labeled  and  will
illuminate  when  in  position.  These  modes
are OFF, ACC, RUN, and START.
NOTE:
In  case  the  ignition  switch  does  not  change
with  the  push  of  a  button,  the  key  fob  may
have a low or depleted battery. In this situa
-
tion,  a  back  up  method  can  be  used  to
operate the ignition switch. Put the nose side
of the key fob (side with the mechanical key)
against the START/STOP ignition button and
push to operate the ignition switch.
 WARNING!
Always  remove  the  key  fobs  from  the
vehicle  and  lock  all  doors  when  leaving
the vehicle unattended.
Always remember to place the ignition in
the OFF mode.

The engine is stopped.
Some  electrical  devices  (e.g.  Central
locking, alarm, etc.) are available.
ACC
Engine is not started.
Some electrical devices are available. RUN

NOTE:
Refer  to  "Starting  The  Engine"  in  "Starting

further information.
 WARNING!
When exiting the vehicle, always remove
the  key  fob  from  the  vehicle  and  lock
your vehicle.
Never  leave  children  alone  in  a  vehicle,
or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unat-
tended  is  dangerous  for  a  number  of
reasons. A child or others could be seri -
ously  or  fatally  injured.  Children  should
be  warned  not  to  touch  the  parking
brake, brake pedal or the gear selector.
Do  not  leave  the  key  fob  in  or  near  the
vehicle,  or  in  a  location  accessible  to
children, and do not leave the ignition of
a  vehicle  equipped  with  Keyless
Enter-N-Go  in  the  ON/RUN  mode.  A
child  could  operate  power  windows,
other controls, or move the vehicle.
Do  not  leave  children  or  animals  inside
parked  vehicles  in  hot  weather.  Interior
heat build-up may cause serious injury or
death.
 CAUTION!
An  unlocked  vehicle  is  an  invitation  for
thieves.  Always  remove  key  fob  from  the
vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the
vehicle unattended.

REMOTE STARTING 
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED  
This  system  uses  the  key  fob  to
start  the  engine  conveniently  from
outside the vehicle while still main-
taining  security.  The  system  has  a
range of 328 ft (100 m).
The  Remote  Starting  System  also  activates
the  Climate  Control,  vented  seats  (if
equipped)  in  temperatures  above  80°F
(26.7°C), the heated seats (if equipped), and
heated  steering  wheel  (if  equipped)  in
temperatures  below  40°F  (4.4°C).  Refer  to
“Heated  Seats”  in  “Getting  To  Know  Your
Vehicle”  in  the  Owner’s  Manual  for  further
information.
NOTE:
The  vehicle  must  be  equipped  with  an
automatic  transmission  to  be  equipped
with Remote Start.
Obstructions between the vehicle and key
fob may reduce this range.
How To Use Remote Start
Push  the  Remote  Start  button on  the  key
fob twice within five seconds. Pushing the
Remote Start button a third time shuts the
engine off.
To  drive  the  vehicle,  push  the  unlock
button,  and  place  the  ignition  in  the  ON/
RUN position.
With remote start, the engine will only run
for  15 minutes  (timeout)  unless  the  igni -
tion key is placed in the ON/RUN position.
The  vehicle  must  be  started  with  the  key
after two consecutive timeouts.
All  of  the  following  conditions  must  be  met
before the engine will remote start:

contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is
odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide
is  poisonous  and  can  cause  serious
injury or death when inhaled.
Keep key fobs away from children. Oper -
ation  of  the  Remote  Start  System,
windows,  door  locks  or  other  controls

will  remain  in  the  Remote  Start  mode  for  a
15 minute cycle.
NOTE:
If an engine fault is present or fuel level is
low,  the  vehicle  will  start  and  then  shut
down in 10 seconds.
The park lamps will turn on and remain on
during Remote Start mode.
For  security,  power  window  operation  is
disabled  when  the  vehicle  is  in  the
Remote Start mode.
The engine can be started two consecutive
times (two 15 minute cycles) with the key
fob. However, the ignition must be placed
in  the  ON/RUN  position  before  you  can
repeat the start sequence for a third cycle.
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM — 
IF EQUIPPED 
The  vehicle  security  alarm  monitors  the
vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and the
ignition  switch  for  unauthorized  operation.
When  the  alarm  is  activated,  the  interior
switches  for  door  locks  are  disabled.  The
vehicle security alarm provides both audible
and visible signals. If something triggers the
alarm, the vehicle security alarm will provide
the following audible and visible signals: the
horn  will  pulse,  the  park  lamps  and/or  turn
signals  will  flash,  and  the  vehicle  security
light in the instrument cluster will flash.
