Activating Intelligent Access (If
Equipped)
General Information
You can unlock and lock the vehicle
without taking the keys out of your pocket
or purse when your Passive key is within
3 ft (1 m) of your vehicle. Intelligent access
uses a sensor on the back of the door
handle for unlocking and a separate sensor
on the face of each door handle for locking.
The system does not function if:
• Your vehicle battery has no charge.
• The key battery has no charge.
• The key frequencies are jammed.
Note: The system may not function if the
passive key is close to metal objects or
electronic devices, for example keys or a cell
phone.
Note: If the system does not function, use
the key blade to lock and unlock your
vehicle. See
Remote Control (page 53).
Unlocking Using Intelligent Access With your Passive key within
3 ft (1 m) of
your vehicle, touch the unlock sensor on
the back of the door handle for a brief
period and then pull on the door handle to
unlock, being careful to not touch the lock
sensor at the same time or pulling the door
handle too quickly. The intelligent access
system requires a brief delay to
authenticate your Passive key. Locking Using Intelligent Access With your Passive key within
3 ft (1 m) of
your vehicle, touch the outer door handle
lock sensor for approximately one second
to lock, being careful to not touch the
unlock sensor on the back of the door
handle at the same time. After locking, you
can immediately pull on the door handle
to confirm locking occurred without
inadvertently unlocking.

in the ignition by either:
• Using the keyless entry keypad with the
driver door closed.
• Pressing the lock button on the

can lock your vehicle by any method,
regardless of whether the key is in the

This feature helps to prevent you from
locking your passive key inside your
vehicle's passenger compartment or rear

your vehicle with any door open, the
transmission in park (P) and the ignition

inside your vehicle after you close the last
door. If the system finds a key, all the
doors immediately unlock and the horn
sounds twice, indicating that a key is inside.

lock your vehicle using the power door lock
control, all doors lock then unlock if the
ignition is on.
