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 cylinder with the
emergency 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 deacti-
vated 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 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
Information and Entertainment System
Owner’s Manual Supplement for Passive Entry
settings.
The key fob may not 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 relock 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.
Passive Entry Door Handle

NOTE:

Either the driver door only or all doors will
unlock when you grab hold of the front driver’s
door handle, depending on the selected
setting in the radio. Refer to the Information and Entertainment System Owner’s Manual
Supplement for Passive Entry settings.
All doors will unlock when the front passenger
door handle is grabbed regardless of the
driver’s door unlock preference setting.
Exterior Trunk Lid Release Switch (Vehicles With Passive Entry)
Frequency Operated Button Integrated Key
(FOBIK-Safe)
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally
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.
If the Passive Entry function is disabled through
the radio screen, the protections to avoid
accidentally leaving the key fob inside the vehicle
are deactivated.

The Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) (low intensity)
come on automatically whenever the ignition is
placed in the ON/RUN position, and the headlight
switch is turned to the position, and the dusk
sensor detects sufficient external light.
On some vehicles, the Daytime Running Lights
may deactivate, or reduce intensity, on one side
of the vehicle (when a turn signal is activated on
that side), or on both sides of the vehicle (when
the hazard warning lights are activated).
The DRL can be activated/deactivated from the
radio system, by selecting the following functions

indicator light will illuminate in the instrument
panel.
When the speed is higher than 25 mph (40 km/h)
and the function is active, the lights will turn off if
the multifunction lever is pushed again.
When the speed is lower than 15 mph (25 km/h)
and the function is active, the function switches
the high beam headlights off.
If the high beam headlights are operated quickly
again (pushing the multifunction lever towards
the instrument panel), the icon/indicator light
will illuminate in the instrument panel, and the
high beam headlights will turn on constantly until
the speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h).
When the speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) is
exceeded again, the automatic functioning is
reactivated. If the multifunction lever is pushed again with the

illuminated, move the multifunction lever
(located on the left side of the steering wheel) to
the side that you want to remain on. With the
parking lights on, the indicator light on the

transfer power to your mobile device.
Your mobile phone must be designed for Qi
wireless charging.

NOTE:

Do not place the key fob or any other type of
metal/magnetized object inside the mobile
phone housing or near the wireless charging
pad.
Be sure to place the mobile device correctly
(display facing upward) on the wireless
charging pad.
The ignition must be in the ON/RUN position in
order for the phone to charge.
To avoid interference with the key fob search,

system:
“Your Phone Is Being Charged” — The phone
has begun to charge.
“Phone Fully Charged” — The phone has
completed charging its battery.
“Foreign Object Detected” — The phone is not
enabled for wireless charging or an object that
is not permitted has been placed on the

POWER WINDOWS
POWER WINDOW CONTROLS
The power window switches work with the ignition
in the ACC or ON/RUN position and for three
minutes after the ignition has been placed in the
OFF position. When one of the front doors is
opened, this operation is disabled.
The window controls on the driver's door control
all the door windows.

the passenger door trim panel.
CAUTION!
The key fob should not be placed on the
charging pad or within 6 inches (15 cm) of it.
Doing so can cause excessive heat buildup
and damage to the fob. Placing the fob in
close proximity of the charging pad blocks the
fob from being detected by the vehicle and
prevents the vehicle from starting.
