Daytime Running Lights
SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents 
unauthorized vehicle operation by disabling the 
engine. The system does not need to be armed or 
activated. Operation is automatic, regardless of 
whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked.
The system uses a key fob, keyless push button 
ignition and a Radio Frequency (RF) receiver to 
prevent unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore, 
only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle 
can be used to start and operate the vehicle. The 
system cannot reprogram a key fob obtained from 
another vehicle. After placing the ignition switch in the ON/RUN 
position, the Vehicle Security Light will turn on for 
three seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains 
on after the bulb check, it indicates that there is a 
problem with the electronics. In addition, if the light 
begins to flash after the bulb check, it indicates 
that someone attempted to start the engine with 
an invalid key fob. In the event that a valid key fob 
is used to start the engine but there is an issue 
with the vehicle electronics, the engine will start 
and shut off after two seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during normal 
vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than 
10 seconds), it indicates that there is a fault in the 
electronics. Should this occur, have the vehicle 
serviced as soon as possible by an authorized 
dealer.
All of the key fobs provided with your new vehicle 
have been programmed to the vehicle electronics  
Úpage 331.
IGNITION SWITCH  
KEYLESS ENTER ‘N GO™ IGNITION
This feature allows the driver to operate the 
ignition switch with the push of a button as long as 
the key fob is in the passenger compartment.
The START/STOP ignition button has four 
operating positions; three of which are labeled and 
will illuminate when in position. The three positions 
are OFF, ACC, and ON/RUN. The fourth position is 
START. During START, RUN will illuminate.
START/STOP Ignition Button
CAUTION!
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not 
compatible with some aftermarket remote 
starting systems. Use of these systems may 
result in vehicle starting problems and loss of 
security protection.

(Continued)
The push button ignition can be placed in the 
following modes:
OFF
 
The engine is stopped
Some electrical devices (e.g. power locks, 
alarm, etc.) are still available
ACC  
The engine is stopped
Some electrical devices are available (e.g. 
power windows)
ON/RUN  
Driving position
All the electrical devices are available (e.g. 
climate controls, etc.)
START 
The engine will start (when foot is on the brake 
pedal)
The engine only runs in the ON/RUN ignition 
position or from a Remote Start request.
In case the ignition switch does not change with 
the push of a button, the key fob may have a low or 
depleted battery. In this situation, a back up 
method can be used to operate the ignition switch. 
Put the nose side (side opposite of the emergency 
key) of the key fob against the START/STOP 
ignition button and push to operate the ignition 
switch.
 Backup Starting Method
NOTE:
The key fob may not be detected by the vehicle 
Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ 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 Keyless Enter ‘n 
Go™ system from starting the vehicle.
For the proper engine starting procedure, see  Úpage 106.
REMOTE START — IF EQUIPPED   
This system uses the key fob to start the 
engine conveniently from outside the 
vehicle while still maintaining security. 
The system has a range of 328 ft 
(100 m).
WARNING!
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the 
key fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with 
access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended 
is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child 
or others could be seriously or fatally injured. 
Children should be warned not to touch the 
parking brake, brake pedal or the gear 
selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, 
or in a location accessible to children, and do 
not leave the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition in 
the RUN position. A child could operate power 
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
Do not leave children or animals inside parked 
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat buildup 
may cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked car is an invitation. Always remove 
the key fobs from the vehicle and lock all doors 
when leaving the vehicle unattended.
WARNING!

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 Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ — 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.
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 15 minute cycle. Once the 
ignition is placed in the ON/RUN position, the 
climate controls will resume the previously set 
operations (temperature, blower control, etc.).
NOTE:
For vehicles equipped with the Keyless Enter ‘n 
Go™ — Passive Entry feature, the message 
“Remote Start Active — Push Start Button” will 
show in the instrument cluster display until you 
push the START/STOP ignition button.
To avoid unintentional shutdowns, the system 
will disable for two seconds after receiving a 
valid Remote Start request.
REMOTE START FRONT DEFROST 
A
CTIVATION — IF EQUIPPED
When Remote Start is active, and the outside 
ambient temperature is 40°F (4.5°C) or below, the 
system will automatically activate front defrost for 
15 minutes or less. The time is dependent on the 
ambient temperature. Once the timer expires, the 
system will automatically adjust the settings 
depending on ambient conditions. See “Remote 
Start Comfort Systems — If Equipped” in the next 
section for detailed operation.
REMOTE START COMFORT SYSTEMS — 
I
F EQUIPPED
When Remote Start is activated, the front and rear 
defrost will automatically turn on in cold weather. 
The heated steering wheel and driver heated seat 
feature will also turn on if programmed in the 
comfort menu screen within Uconnect Settings  
Úpage 142. In warm weather, the driver vented 
seat feature will automatically turn on when the 
Remote Start is activated, if programmed via the 
comfort menu screen. The vehicle will adjust the 
climate control settings depending on the outside 
ambient temperature. Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) — 
If Equipped
The climate controls automatically adjust to an 
optimal temperature and mode, dependent upon 
the outside ambient temperature. When the 
ignition is placed in the ON/RUN position, the 
climate controls will resume their previous 
settings.
Manual Temperature Control (MTC) — If Equipped
In ambient temperatures of 40°F (4.5°C) or 
below, the climate settings will default to 
maximum heat, with fresh air entering the 
cabin. If the front defrost timer expires, the 
vehicle will enter Mix Mode.
In ambient temperatures from 40°F (4.5°C) to 
78°F (26°C), the climate settings will be based 
on the last settings selected by the driver.
In ambient temperatures of 78°F (26°C) 
or above, the climate settings will default to 
MAX A/C, Bi-Level mode, and Recirculation on.
For more information on ATC, MTC, and climate 
control settings, see  
Úpage 58.

NOTE:These features will stay on through the duration of 
Remote Start until the ignition is placed in the 
ON/RUN position. The climate control settings 
will change, and exit automatic operation, if 
manually adjusted by the driver while the vehicle is 
in Remote Start mode. This includes the OFF 
button on the climate controls, which will turn the 
system off.

instrument cluster if the vehicle fails to remote 
start or exits Remote Start prematurely:
Remote Start Cancelled — Door Open
Remote Start Cancelled — Hood Open
Remote Start Cancelled — Fuel Low
Remote Start Cancelled — Liftgate Open

VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security system monitors the vehicle 
doors for unauthorized entry and the ignition 
switch for unauthorized operation. When the alarm 
is activated, the interior switches for door locks, 
power sliding doors and power liftgate are 
disabled. The Vehicle Security system provides 
both audible and visible signals. If something 
triggers the alarm, the Vehicle Security system will 
provide the following audible and visible signals: 
the horn will pulse, the park lamps and/or turn 
signals will flash, and the Vehicle Security Light in 
the instrument cluster will flash.
