Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry
Key Fob In Vehicle:
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally
locking a Passive Entry key fob inside your
vehicle, the Passive Entry system is equipped
with an automatic door unlock feature which
will function if the ignition switch is in the OFF
position.
If one of the vehicle doors is open and the door
panel switch is used to lock the vehicle, once all
open doors have been closed the vehicle
checks the inside and outside of the vehicle for
any valid Passive Entry key fobs. If one of the
vehicle's Passive Entry key fobs is detected inside the vehicle, and no other valid Passive
Entry key fobs are detected outside the vehicle,
the Passive Entry System automatically unlocks
all vehicle doors and chirps the horn three times
(on the third attempt ALL doors will lock and the
Passive Entry key fob can be locked in the
vehicle).
To Lock The Vehicle’s Doors:
With one of the vehicle’s Passive Entry key fobs
within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver or passenger
front door handles, push the door handle lock
button to lock all doors.
