gency key from the key fob or a screwdriver
into the door lock manual release lock
cylinder.
Door Lock Manual Release Lock Cylinder
2. Turn the manual release lock cylinder clockwise for the right door locks or coun -
terclockwise for the left door locks.
3. Remove the key/screwdriver from the manual release lock.
Proceed in one of the following ways to realign
the door lock device (only when the battery
charge has been restored):
Push the lock button on the key fob
Push the unlock button on the door panel
Unlock the driver’s door lock with the emer -
gency key
Operate the internal door handle
NOTE:
For the rear doors, if the Child Safety Locks are
engaged, and the previously described locking
procedure is carried out, operating the internal
handle will not open the door. Instead, it will
only realign the lock release device. To open
the door, the outside handle must be used.
The door central locking/unlocking buttons
are not deactivated when the emergency lock
is engaged.
Passive Entry System
The Passive Entry system is an enhancement
to the vehicle’s key fob. This feature allows you
to lock and unlock the vehicle’s door(s) and
liftgate 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 liftgate automatically.
