GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
KEYS
KEY FOB
Your vehicle uses a key start ignition system
which supports Remote Keyless Entry (RKE).
The key fob allows you to lock or unlock the
doors from distances up to approximately 66 ft
(20 m). The key fob does not need to be pointed
at the vehicle to activate the system. The key
fob also contains an integrated mechanical key,
which can be used by pushing the mechanical
key release button.
The vehicle is supplied with a code card
containing key code numbers to order duplicate
keys, and the authorized dealer that sold you
your new vehicle has the key code numbers for
your vehicle locks. These numbers can be used
to order duplicate keys.
NOTE:
The key fob may not be able to be detected by
the vehicle if it is located next to a mobile
phone, laptop or other electronic device; these
devices may block the key fob’s wireless signal

NOTE:
Opening the driver's door when the key is in the
ignition and the ignition switch position is STOP
(OFF/LOCK) sounds a signal to remove the key.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security system monitors the
vehicle doors and ignition for unauthorized
operation. When the Vehicle Security system is
activated, interior switches for door locks are
disabled. The system provides both audible and
visible signals. For the first three minutes, the
horn will sound, and the turn signal lights will
flash. For an additional 15 minutes, only the
turn signal lights will flash.
TO ARM THE SYSTEM
To arm the system, the Vehicle Security system
will set when you use the key fob to lock the
doors. If a door or the hood is not properly shut,
the system will not be armed.
TO DISARM THE SYSTEM
Use the key fob to unlock the door and disarm
the system.
The Vehicle Security system will also disarm if a
programmed Sentry Key is inserted into the
ignition switch. To exit the alarming mode,
push the key fob unlock button, or insert a
programmed Sentry Key into the ignition switch. The Vehicle Security system is designed to
protect your vehicle. However, you can create
conditions where the system will give you a false
alarm. If one of the previously described arming
sequences has occurred, the Vehicle Security
system will arm regardless of whether you are in
the vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicle
and open a door, the alarm will sound. If this
occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security system.
REARMING OF THE SYSTEM
If the system has not been disabled, the Vehicle
Security system will rearm itself after the 15
additional minutes of turn lamps flashing. If the
condition which initiated the alarm is still
present, the system will ignore that condition
and monitor the remaining doors and ignition.
SECURITY SYSTEM MANUAL OVERRIDE
The Vehicle Security system will not arm/disarm
if you lock/unlock the doors using the manual
door lock.
