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.
REARMING OF THE SYSTEM
If something triggers the alarm and no action is
taken to disarm it, the Vehicle Security system will
turn the horn off after a 29 second cycle (with five
seconds between cycles and up to 8 cycles if the
trigger remains active) and then rearm itself.
SECURITY SYSTEM MANUAL OVERRIDE
The Vehicle Security system will not arm if you lock
the doors using the manual door lock.

If set by the customer in the Uconnect Settings,
unlocking with Passive Entry will initiate illumi -
nated approach (low beams, license plate light,
parking lights) for the time 0, 30, 60 or
90 seconds. Passive Entry also initiates
two flashes of the turn signals.
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 will arm the Vehicle
Security system (if equipped).
The sliding side doors can be unlocked from the
outside using the hands-free or Passive Entry
system.
To Unlock From The Driver Or Passenger Side:

door handle is grabbed regardless of the
driver’s door unlock preference setting.
Frequency Operated Button Integrated Key
(FOBIK-Safe)
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally
locking a key fob inside your vehicle, the Passive
Entry system is equipped with an automatic door
unlock feature. There are three situations that trigger a
FOBIK-Safe search in any Passive Entry vehicle:
A lock request is made by a valid key fob while a
door is open.
A lock request is made by the Passive Entry door
handle while a door is open.
A lock request is made by the door panel switch
while the door is open.
When any of these situations occur, after all open
doors are shut, the FOBIK-Safe search will be
executed. If it detects a key fob inside the car, and
it does not detect any key fob outside the car, then
the car will unlock and alert the customer.
NOTE:The vehicle will only unlock the doors when a valid
Passive Entry key fob is detected inside the
vehicle, and no valid key fob is detected outside
the vehicle. The vehicle will not unlock the doors
when any of the following conditions are met:
The doors are manually locked using the door
lock knobs.
Three attempts are made to lock the doors
using the door panel switch and then the doors
are closed.
There is a valid Passive Entry key fob outside the
vehicle and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of either Passive
Entry door handle.
