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

NOTE:
The driver's door key cylinder cannot arm
or disarm the vehicle security alarm.
When the vehicle security alarm is armed,
the interior power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.
The vehicle security alarm is designed to
protect your vehicle. However, you can create
conditions where the system will give you a
false alarm. 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, and the horn will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
PREMIUM VEHICLE
SECURITY ALARM — IF
EQUIPPED
This premium vehicle security alarm moni -
tors the vehicle doors, hood, swing gate and
ignition for unauthorized operation. When
the alarm is armed, the interior switches for
door locks, and power swing gate are
disabled. If something triggers the alarm, the
vehicle security alarm will provide the
following audible and visible signals: the
horn will pulse, and the park lamps and/or
turn signals will flash.
To Arm The System
Follow these steps to arm the security alarm:
1. Make sure the vehicle ignition system is OFF.
2. Perform one of the following methods to lock the vehicle:
Push lock on the interior power doorlock switch with the driver and/or
passenger door open.
Push the lock button on the exterior Passive Entry Door Handle with a valid
key fob available in the same exterior
zone. Refer to “Keyless Enter-N-Go” in
“Doors” in this chapter for further
information.
Push the lock button on the key fob.
3. If any doors are open, close them.
NOTE:
Once the security system is armed, it
remains in that state until you disarm it by
following either of the disarming proce-
dures described. If a power loss occurs
after arming the system, you must disarm
the system after restoring power to prevent
alarm activation.
The ultrasonic intrusion sensor (motion

To Disarm The System
The vehicle security alarm can be disarmed
using any of the following methods:
Push the unlock button on the key fob.
Grasp the Passive Entry Unlock Door
Handle. Refer to "Keyless Enter-N-Go" in
“Doors” in this chapter for further infor-
mation.
Cycle the vehicle ignition system out of
the OFF position by pushing the Keyless
Enter-N-Go START/STOP ignition button
(requires at least one valid key fob in the

disarm the vehicle security alarm.
The vehicle security alarm remains armed
during power liftgate entry. Pushing the
liftgate button will not disarm the vehicle
security alarm. If someone enters the
vehicle through the liftgate and opens any
door the alarm will sound.
When the vehicle security alarm is armed,
the interior power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.
The ultrasonic intrusion sensor (motion
detector) actively monitors your vehicle
every time you arm the security system. If
you prefer, you can turn off the ultrasonic
intrusion sensor when arming the security
system. To do so, push the lock button on
the key fob three times within 15 seconds
of arming the system (while the vehicle
security light is flashing rapidly).
The vehicle security alarm is designed to
protect your vehicle; however, you can avoid
conditions where the system may give you a
nuisance alarm. Conditions include any
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.

— Swing Gate Open Warning Light
This warning light will illuminate when the
swing gate is open.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is moving, there will also be a
single chime.
— Transmission Temperature Warning
Light — If Equipped
This warning light will illuminate to warn of
a high transmission fluid temperature. This
may occur with strenuous usage such as
trailer towing. If this light turns on, stop the
vehicle and shift the transmission into Park
and allow the vehicle to sit idle (propulsion
system active), until the light turns off. Once
the light turns off, you may continue to drive
normally.
— Vehicle Security Warning Light — If
Equipped
This light will flash at a fast rate for approxi -
mately 15 seconds when the vehicle security
alarm is arming, and then will flash slowly
until the vehicle is disarmed.
Yellow Warning Lights
— Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Warning Light
This warning light monitors the Anti-Lock
Brake System (ABS). The light will turn on
when the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN or
ACC/ON/RUN position and may stay on for as
long as four seconds.
If the ABS light remains on or turns on while
driving, then the Anti-Lock portion of the
brake system is not functioning and service
is required as soon as possible. However, the conventional brake system will continue to
operate normally, assuming the Brake
Warning Light is not also on.
If the ABS light does not turn on when the
ignition is placed in the ON/RUN or ACC/ON/
RUN position, have the brake system
inspected by an authorized dealer.
— Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
Active Warning Light — If Equipped
This warning light will indicate when the
Electronic Stability Control system is Active.
The “ESC Indicator Light” in the instrument
cluster will come on when the ignition is
placed in the ON/RUN or ACC/ON/RUN posi -
tion, and when ESC is activated. It should go
out with the engine running. If the “ESC
Indicator Light” comes on continuously with
the engine running, a malfunction has been
detected in the ESC system. If this warning
light remains on after several ignition cycles,
and the vehicle has been driven several miles
(kilometers) at speeds greater than 30 mph
(48 km/h), see an authorized dealer as soon
as possible to have the problem diagnosed
and corrected.
WARNING!
If you continue operating the vehicle when
the Transmission Temperature Warning
Light is illuminated you could cause the
fluid to boil over, come in contact with hot
engine or exhaust components and cause a
fire.
CAUTION!
Continuous driving with the Transmission
Temperature Warning Light illuminated
will eventually cause severe transmission
damage or transmission failure.
