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.

 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.

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!

person,  or  pet,  left  inside  the  vehicle  or
hanging items that may sway (e.g. from rear
view  mirrors,  visors,  etc).  Windows  and  roof
panels  should  be  closed  to  prevent  wind,
leaves,  and  other  debris  from  blowing  into
the vehicle. Items left in the vehicle that may
shift over a period of time (e.g. plastic bags,
clothes,  or  groceries),  could  result  in  a
nuisance alarm. Additionally,  extreme  environmental  condi
-
tions  (wind,  rain,  hail,  thunder,  etc.),  or
extreme noise  (audio  systems, traffic condi -
tions,  trains,  etc.),  or  direct  impacts  to  the
vehicle  may  result  in  a  nuisance  alarming
condition.
If  one  of  the  previously  described  arming
sequences has occurred, the vehicle security
alarm will arm regardless of whether you are
in  the  vehicle  or  not.  If  you  remain  in  the
vehicle  and  open  a  door,  the  alarm  will
sound.  If  this  occurs,  disarm  the  vehicle
security alarm.
If the vehicle security alarm is armed and the
battery  becomes  disconnected,  the  vehicle
security  alarm  will  remain  armed  when  the
battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash,  the  horn  will  sound.  If  this  occurs,
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
Security System Manual Override
The system will not arm if you lock the doors
using the manual door lock.

DOORS 
Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry (If 
Equipped) 
The  Passive  Entry  system  is  a  feature  that
allows  you  to  lock  and  unlock  the  vehicle’s
door(s)  and  swing  gate  without  having  to
push the key fob lock or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
Passive Entry may be programmed on/off.
Refer  to  “Uconnect  Settings”  in  “Multi-
media”  in  the Owner’s Manual for  further
information.
The  key  fob  may  not  be  detected  by  the
vehicle  Passive  Entry  system  if  it  is
located next to a mobile phone, laptop, or
other electronic device; these devices may
interfere with the key fob’s wireless signal
and prevent the Passive Entry system from
locking/unlocking the vehicle.
Passive Entry Unlock initiates illuminated
approach  (Low  Beams,  License  Plate
Lamp, Position Lamps) for whichever time
duration is set between 0, 30 (default), 60
or 90 seconds. Passive  Entry Unlock  also
initiates  two  flashes  of  the  turn  signal
lamps.
If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it has
been raining/snowing on the Passive Entry
door handle, the unlock sensitivity can be
affected,  resulting  in  a  slower  response
time.
If the vehicle is unlocked by Passive Entry
and no door is opened within 60 seconds,
the  vehicle  will  re-lock  and  if  equipped
will arm the security alarm.
To Unlock From The Driver Side
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the driver's door handle, grab the
front driver door handle to unlock the driver's
door automatically. Grab The Door Handle To Unlock
NOTE:
If  “1st  Press  Of  Key  Fob  Unlock”  is
programmed  all  doors  will  unlock  when  you
grab  hold  of  the  front  driver’s  door  handle.  To
select between “Unlock Driver Door 1st Press”
and  “Unlock  All  Doors  1st  Press,”  refer  to
“Uconnect  Settings”  in  “Multimedia”  in  the
Owner’s Manual for further information.
To Unlock From The Passenger Side
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft
(1.5 m)  of  the  passenger  door  handle,  grab
the front passenger door handle to unlock all
doors and the swing gate automatically.
 CAUTION!
Careless  handling  and  storage  of  the
removable  door  panels  may  damage  the
seals,  causing  water  to  leak  into  the
vehicle’s interior.
