In this section, you will find important information 
to help you become familiar with the features 
needed to operate your vehicle, and how they 
function.
KEYS
KEY FOB
Your vehicle is equipped with a key fob which 
supports Passive Entry, Remote Keyless Entry 
(RKE), Remote Start (if equipped), and remote 
liftgate operation. The key fob allows you to lock 
or unlock the doors and liftgate. The key fob does 
not need to be pointed at the vehicle to activate 
the system. The key fob also contains an 
emergency key, which is stored inside the key fob.
NOTE:
The key fob’s wireless signal may be blocked if 
the key fob is located next to a mobile phone, 
laptop, or other electronic device. This may 
result in poor performance.
With ignition in the ON position and the vehicle 
moving at 2 mph (4 km/h), all RKE commands 
are disabled. Key Fob
In case the ignition switch does not change with 
the push of a button, the key fob may have a low

VEHICLE SECURITY 
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security system monitors the vehicle 
doors, hood, liftgate, and the keyless push button 
ignition for unauthorized operation. It also 
monitors movement inside the passenger 
compartment (volumetric protection — if 
equipped), cutting of battery cables, and 
unexpected lifting/tilting of the vehicle (anti-lift 
protection — if equipped).
While the Vehicle Security system is armed, 
interior switches for door locks are disabled.
If something triggers the alarm, the Vehicle 
Security system will provide the following audible 
and visible signals:
The horn will pulse
The turn signals will flash
The Vehicle Security Light in the instrument 
cluster will flash
NOTE:
The Vehicle Security system is activated by the 
Engine Immobilizer system, which is automati-
cally activated when you get out of the vehicle 
with the key fob and lock the doors.
TO ARM THE SYSTEM
Follow these steps to arm the Vehicle Security 
system:
1. Make sure the vehicle’s ignition is placed in  the OFF position. 2. Perform one of the following methods to lock
the vehicle:
• Push the lock button on the interior power 
door lock switch with the driver and/orpassenger door open.
• Push the lock button on the exterior
Passive Entry door handle with a valid keyfob available in the same exterior zone
Ú
page 26.
• Push the lock button on the key fob.
3. If any doors (or liftgate) are open, close them.
TO DISARM THE SYSTEM
The Vehicle Security system can be disarmed 
using any of the following methods:
Push the unlock button on the key fob.
Grab the Passive Entry door handle to unlock 
the door  
Ú
page 26.
Cycle the ignition out of the OFF position to 
disarm the system.
NOTE:
The driver's door key cylinder and liftgate 
button on the key fob cannot arm or disarm the 
Vehicle Security system. Use of the door key 
cylinder when the system is armed will sound 
the alarm when the door is opened.
When the Vehicle Security system is armed, 
the interior power door lock switches will not 
unlock the doors. 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.
If the Vehicle Security system is armed and the 
battery becomes disconnected, the Vehicle 
Security system will remain armed when the 
battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will 
flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs, 
disarm the Vehicle Security system.
NOTE:
The alarm does not disarm when the doors are 
unlocked by inserting the blade of the emergency 
key (found inside the key fob) into the door 
handle lock cylinder.

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 
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 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 
Information 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 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 liftgate automatically.
Passive Entry Door Handle Button
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.External Liftgate Release Button(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

PROGRAMMING HOMELINK® TO A 
G
ARAGE DOOR OPENER
To program any of the HomeLink® buttons to 
activate your garage door opener motor, proceed 
as follows:
NOTE:
All HomeLink® buttons are programmed using 
this procedure. You do not need to erase all chan -
nels when programming additional buttons.
1. Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN  position.
2. Place the garage door opener transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the 
HomeLink® button you wish to program, 
while keeping the HomeLink® indicator light 
in view.
3. Push and hold the HomeLink® button you  want to program while you push and hold the 
garage door opener transmitter button you 
are trying to replicate.
4. Continue to hold both buttons and observe  the HomeLink® indicator light. The 
HomeLink® indicator light will flash slowly 
and then rapidly. Once this happens, release 
both buttons.
NOTE:
Make sure the garage door opener motor is 
plugged in before moving on to the rolling code/
non-rolling code final steps. Rolling Code Garage Door Opener Final Steps
NOTE:
You have 30 seconds in which to initiate rolling 
code final step 2, after completing rolling code 
final step 1.
1. At the garage door opener motor (in the 
garage), locate the “LEARN” or “TRAIN” 
button. This can usually be found where the 
hanging antenna wire is attached to the 
garage door opener motor. Firmly push and 
release the “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button.
2. Return to the vehicle and push the  programmed HomeLink® button three times 
(holding the button for two seconds each 
time). If the garage door opener motor oper-
ates, programming is complete.
3. Push the programmed HomeLink® button to  confirm that the garage door opener motor 
operates. If the garage door opener motor 
does not operate, repeat the final steps for 
the rolling code procedure.
Non-Rolling Code Garage Door Opener Final 
Steps
1. Push and hold the programmed HomeLink®  button and observe the HomeLink® indicator 
light. If the HomeLink® indicator light stays 
on constantly, programming is complete.
2. Push the programmed HomeLink® button to  confirm that the garage door opener motor 
operates. If the garage door opener motor 
does not operate, repeat the steps from the 
beginning.
PROGRAMMING HOMELINK® TO A 
M
ISCELLANEOUS DEVICE
The procedure on how to program HomeLink® to 
a miscellaneous device follows the same 
procedure as programming to a garage door 
opener  
Ú
page 40. Be sure to determine if the 
device has a rolling code, or non-rolling code 
before beginning the programming process.
NOTE:
Canadian Radio Frequency (RF) laws require 
transmitter signals to time-out (or quit) after 
several seconds of transmission, which may not 
be long enough for HomeLink® to pick up the 
signal during programming. Similar to this Cana -
dian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed 
to time-out in the same manner. The procedure 
may need to be performed multiple times to 
successfully pair the device to your HomeLink® 
buttons.
 WARNING!
Your motorized door or gate will open and 
close while you are programming the 
universal transmitter. Do not program the 
transmitter if people or pets are in the path 
of the door or gate.
Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or 
confined area while programming the 
transmitter. Exhaust gas from your vehicle 
contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is 
odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide is 
poisonous when inhaled and can cause you 
and others to be severely injured or killed.
