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.

trunk lid without having to push the key fob
lock or unlock buttons.

NOTE:

Passive Entry may be programmed on/off
through the radio screen. Refer to the Infor-
mation and Entertainment System Owner’s
Manual Supplement for Passive Entry
settings.
The key fob may not be able to 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
block the key fob’s wireless signal and
prevent the Passive Entry system from
locking/unlocking the vehicle.
If wearing gloves, 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 Vehicle Security system. To Unlock From The Driver Or Passenger Side
With a valid Passive Entry key fob close to the
door handle, grab the handle to unlock the
vehicle. Grabbing the driver’s door handle will
unlock the driver door automatically. Grabbing
the passenger door handle will unlock all
doors and the trunk lid automatically.

tainment System Owner’s Manual Supple -
ment for Passive Entry settings.

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.
The vehicle will not unlock the doors if an
unauthorized key fob has been detected close
to the outside of the vehicle.

Center Console
The center console storage compartment is
located between the front seats.
To access the center console storage, lift the
upper part of the center console.Center Console
Power Outlet

Your vehicle is equipped with a 12 Volt (15 Amp)
power outlet that can be used to power cellular
phones, small electronics and other low powered
electrical accessories. The power outlet is
labeled with either a “key” symbol to indicate
how the outlet is powered. Power outlets labeled
with a “key” are powered when the ignition is in
the ON/RUN or ACC position.

NOTE:

All accessories connected to the “battery”
powered outlets should be removed or turned
off when the vehicle is not in use to protect the
battery against discharge.
115 Volt Power Inverter — If Equipped
The Power Inverter is located inside of the
center console. It can be used for small
battery-powered electrical appliances with
powers up to 150 W (e.g. cameras, video
camera, tablets, razors, etc.)

NOTE:

Do not connect devices with powers higher
than 150 W to the socket. Do not damage the
socket by using unsuitable adapters. Center Console Power Outlet
WARNING!
Do not operate this vehicle with a glove
compartment in the open position. Driving
with the glove compartment open may
result in injury in a collision.
WARNING!
Do not operate this vehicle with a console
compartment lid in the open position.
Driving with the console compartment lid
open may result in injury in a collision.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:

Only devices designed for use in this
type of outlet should be inserted into any
12 Volt outlet.

Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use and while
driving the vehicle.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause
an electric shock and failure.

Cigar Lighter And Ash Tray — If Equipped
If equipped, the cigar lighter is located on the
bottom of the center stack, in front of the
cupholders.
To activate the cigar lighter, push in and wait a
few seconds. Once the cigar lighter has
returned to its original position, it is ready for
use.

NOTE:

Always ensure the cigar lighter is turned off
when not in use.1 — Cigar Lighter
If equipped, the ash tray is a removable plastic
container located inside the cupholder.
Wireless Charging Pad — If Equipped
Wireless Charging Pad
Your vehicle may be equipped with a 15W 3A
Qi wireless charging pad located inside of the
center console. This charging pad is designed
to wirelessly charge your Qi enabled mobile
phone. Qi is a standard that uses magnetic
induction to transfer power to your mobile
device.
Your mobile phone must be designed for Qi
wireless charging.
CAUTION!
Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not insert any other object
in the power outlets as this will damage
the outlet and blow the fuse. Improper use
of the power outlet can cause damage not
covered by your New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
Many accessories that can be plugged in
draw power from the vehicle's battery,
even when not in use (i.e., cellular phones,
etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long
enough, the vehicle's battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade battery
life and/or prevent the engine from
starting.
Accessories that draw higher power (i.e.,
coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will
degrade the battery even more quickly.
Only use these intermittently and with
greater caution.
After the use of high power draw accesso -
ries, or long periods of the vehicle not
being started (with accessories still
plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
sufficient length of time to allow the
generator to recharge the vehicle's
battery.
