The use of these devices inside the passenger compartment (without an external antenna) may cause the electrical systems to malfunction.
This could compromise the safety of the vehicle in addition to constituting a potential hazard for passengers' health.
If mobile phones/laptops/smartphones/tablets are inside the vehicle and/or close to the electronic key, a reduced performance of the Passive
Entry/Keyless Start system may occur may occur.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
In this section, you will find important informa-
tion to help you become familiar with the
features needed to operate your vehicle, and
how they function.
KEYS
Key Fob
Your vehicle is equipped with a key fob which
supports Passive Entry, Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE), Remote Start (if equipped), and remote
trunk operation. The key fob allows you to lock
or unlock the doors and trunk lid. The key fob
does not need to be pointed at the vehicle to
activate the system. The key fob also contains
an emergency key, which is stored inside the
key fob.

NOTE:

The key fob’s wireless signal may be
blocked if the key fob is located next to a
mobile phone, laptop, or other electronic
device. This may result in poor perfor -
mance.
With ignition in the ON position and the
vehicle moving at 2 mph (4 km/h), all RKE commands are disabled. Key Fob
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
Ú
page 273.
To Lock/Unlock The Doors And Trunk
Push and release the unlock button on the key
fob once to unlock the driver’s door, or twice
within five seconds to unlock all the doors and
the trunk lid. To lock all the doors and the
trunk lid, push the lock button once. If the
trunk lid is open when the lock button is
pushed, the trunk lid will lock when it is closed. The current unlock setting can be changed
through the radio system menu, so that the
system unlocks:
All doors on the first push of the key fob
unlock button.
The driver door on the first push of the key
fob unlock button.
When the doors are locked/unlocked, the turn
signals will flash and the illuminated entry
system will be activated.

NOTE:

If one or more doors are open when the lock
button is pushed, or the trunk lid is open, the
doors will lock. The doors will unlock again
automatically if the key is left inside the
passenger compartment, otherwise the doors
will stay locked.
Flashing of the turn signals upon locking/
unlocking the doors and activation of the cour -
tesy light upon unlocking the doors can be
activated or deactivated through the radio
system. For further information, refer to the
Information and Entertainment System
Owner’s Manual Supplement.
Trunk Lid Opening
Rapidly push the trunk lid key fob button twice
to open the trunk lid. The turn signals will flash
to indicate that the trunk lid has been opened.

To Exit Remote Start Mode
To drive the vehicle after starting the Remote
Start system, either push and release the
unlock button on the key fob to unlock the
doors, or unlock the vehicle using Passive
Entry via the door handles, and disarm the
Vehicle Security system (if equipped). Then,
prior to the end of the 15 minute cycle, push
and release the START/STOP ignition button
while pressing the brake pedal.
The Remote Start system will turn the engine
off with another push and release of the
Remote Start button on the key fob, or if the
engine is allowed to run for the entire

When Remote Start is activated, the heated
steering wheel and front heated seat features
will automatically activate when ambient
temperature is less than 39°F (4°C). These
features will stay on through the duration of
Remote Start.

NOTE:

This feature can be activated through the
radio system. Refer to the Information and
Entertainment System Owner’s Manual
Supplement for further information
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM — IF
EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security system monitors the
vehicle doors, hood, trunk, and the keyless
push button ignition for unauthorized opera-
tion. It also monitors movement inside the
passenger compartment (volumetric protec -
tion — if equipped), cutting of battery cables,
and unexpected lifting/tilting of the vehicle
(anti-lift protection — if equipped).
While the Vehicle Security system is armed,
interior switches for door locks and trunk
release are disabled.
If something triggers the alarm, the Vehicle
Security system will provide the following
audible and visible signals:
The horn will pulse
The turn signals will flash
The vehicle security light in the instrument
cluster will flash

NOTE:

The Vehicle Security system is activated by the
Engine Immobilizer system, which is automati -
cally activated when you get out of the vehicle
with the key fob and lock the doors.
