KEYLESS ENTER ‘N GO™ — PASSIVE
E
NTRY (IF EQUIPPED)
The Passive Entry system is an enhancement to
the vehicle’s Remote Keyless Entry system and a
feature of Keyless Enter ‘n Go™. This feature
allows you to lock and unlock the vehicle’s door(s)
without having to push the key fob lock or unlock
buttons.
NOTE:
Passive Entry may be programmed on/off
through Uconnect Settings Ú page 123.
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 interfere with the key fob’s
wireless signal and prevent the Passive Entry
system from locking and 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 the Passive Entry
door handle, and no door goes ajar within
60 seconds, the vehicle will relock and if
equipped, the Vehicle Security system will arm. To Unlock From The Driver Or Passenger Side
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the door handle, grab the handle to
unlock the vehicle. Grabbing the driver’s door
handle will unlock the driver’s door automatically.
Grabbing the passenger door handle will unlock all
doors and the liftgate automatically.

Grab The Door Handle To Unlock

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
Uconnect system Ú page 123.
All doors will unlock when the front passenger
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 Passive Entry key fob inside your vehicle,
the Passive Entry system is equipped with an
automatic door unlock feature.
FOBIK-Safe only executes in vehicles with Passive
Entry. There are three situations that trigger a
FOBIK-Safe search in any Passive Entry vehicle:
A lock request is made by a valid Passive Entry
key fob while a door is ajar.
A lock request is made by the Passive Entry door
handle while a door is ajar.
A lock request is made by the door panel switch
while the door is ajar.
When any of these situations occur, after all ajar
doors are shut, the FOBIK-Safe search will be
executed. If it detects a Passive Entry key fob
inside the car, and it does not detect any Passive
Entry key fobs 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 Passive Entry key fob is

Blower Control Knob
Blower Control is used to regulate the
amount of air forced through the Climate
Control system. Adjusting the blower will
cause automatic mode to switch to
manual operation. The speeds can be selected by
rotating the Blower Control adjustment knob.
Mode Control
Select Mode by pressing one of the Mode
buttons to change the airflow distribution
mode. The airflow distribution mode can
be adjusted so air comes from the
instrument panel outlets, floor outlets, defrost
outlets and demist outlets.
Front Defrost Button
Push and release the button on the
faceplate to change the current airflow
setting to Defrost mode. The Front
Defrost indicator illuminates when Front
Defrost is on. Air comes from the windshield and
side window demist outlets. When the defrost
button is selected, the blower level may increase.
Use Defrost mode with maximum temperature
settings for best windshield and side window
defrosting and defogging. When toggling the front
defrost mode button, the Climate Control system
will return to the previous setting.
Panel Mode
Air comes from the outlets in the
instrument panel. Each of these outlets
can be individually adjusted to direct the
flow of air. The air vanes of the center
outlets and outboard outlets can be moved up and
down or side to side to regulate airflow direction.
There is a shut-off wheel located below the air
vanes to shut-off or adjust the amount of airflow
from these outlets.
Floor Mode
Air comes from the floor outlets. A slight
amount of air is directed through the
defrost and side window demister
outlets.
Bi-Level Mode
Bi-Level Mode is obtained by pressing
both the Panel Mode button and the
Floor Mode button, activating them both.
Air comes from the instrument panel
outlets and floor outlets. A slight amount of air is
directed through the defrost and side window
demister outlets.
NOTE:Bi-Level Mode is designed under comfort condi -
tions to provide cooler air out of the panel outlets
and warmer air from the floor outlets.
Mix Mode
Mix Mode is obtained by pressing both
the Windshield Mode button and the
Floor Mode button, activating them both.
Air is directed through the floor, defrost,
and side window demister outlets. This setting
works best in cold or snowy conditions that require
extra heat to the windshield. This setting is good
for maintaining comfort while reducing moisture
on the windshield.
Hi-Level Mode
Hi-Level Mode is obtained by pushing the
Defrost Mode button and the Panel Mode
button. Air comes from the instrument
panel outlets and the defrost outlets. A
slight amount of air is directed through the side
window demister outlets.
Tri-Level Mode
Tri-Level Mode is obtained by pressing
the Defrost Mode button, the Panel Mode
button, and the Floor Mode button. Air
comes from the instrument panel
outlets, the defrost outlets, and floor outlets. A
slight amount of air is directed through the side
window demister outlets.

Vacation/Storage
For information on maintaining the Climate Control
system when the vehicle is being stored for an
extended period of time, see Úpage 286.
Window Fogging
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in mild,
rainy, and/or humid weather. To clear the
windows, select Defrost or Mix mode and increase
the front blower speed. Do not use the
Recirculation mode without A/C for long periods,
as fogging may occur.
Outside Air Intake
Make sure the air intake, located directly in front of
the windshield, is free of obstructions, such as
leaves. Leaves collected in the air intake may
reduce airflow, and if they enter the air distribution
box, they could plug the water drains. In Winter
months, make sure the air intake is clear of ice,
slush, and snow.
Cabin Air Filter
The Climate Control system filters out dust and
pollen from the air. Contact an authorized dealer to
service your cabin air filter, and to have it replaced
when needed.
System Maintenance
In Winter, the Climate Control system must be
turned on at least once a month for approximately
10 minutes.
Have the system inspected at an authorized dealer
before the Summer.
NOTE:The system uses R-1234yf (refrigerant) which does
not pollute the environment in the event of acci -
dental leakage. Under no circumstances is the use
of R-134a (refrigerant) allowed.
Rapid Window Demisting (MAX-Defrost
Function)
Push the MAX-defrost button to activate (LED on)
the windshield and side window demisting
function.
The Climate Control system carries out the
following operations:
Turns on the air conditioning compressor when
environmental conditions are suitable
Turns air recirculation off
Sets blower fan to the maximum speed and
displays the fan speed (Blower Control Indicator
LED illuminated)
Directs air flow to windshield and front side
window diffusers
Activates the heated rear window defrost
Activates the heated windshield (if equipped)
When the function is activated, the AUTO button
LED turns off. With the function activated, the only
possible manual adjustments are pushing the A/C
control button, adjusting the fan speed and turning
the heated rear window off.
When the Recirculation Control or AUTO buttons
are pushed, the Climate Control system will
deactivate the Front Defrost (MAX-DEF) function.
Selecting the footwell/windshield or only
windshield distribution activates the Climate
Control system compressor and the air
recirculation is set to outside air intake.
This logic guarantees optimum visibility at the
windows. Max-defrost is also available in manual
mode.
