Activating Passive Key
General Information
You can unlock and lock your vehicle
without taking the keys out of your pocket
or purse when the passive key is within 3 ft
(1 m) of your vehicle. Passive key uses a
sensor on the back of the door handle for
unlocking and a separate sensor on the
face of each door handle for locking.
The system does not function if:
• The vehicle battery has no charge.
• The passive key battery has no charge.
• The passive key frequencies are
jammed.
Note: The system may not operate if the
passive key is close to metal objects or
electronic devices, for example keys or a cell
phone.
Note: If the system does not operate, use
the key blade to lock and unlock your
vehicle. See
Remote Control (page 57).

your vehicle, touch the unlock sensor on
the back of the door handle for a brief
period and then pull on the door handle to
unlock, being careful to not touch the lock
sensor at the same time or pull the door
handle too quickly. The passive key system
requires a brief delay to authenticate the
passive key. Locking Using Passive Key With the passive key within
3 ft (1 m) of
your vehicle, touch the outer door handle
lock sensor for approximately one second

inside your vehicle after you close the last

immediately unlock and the horn sounds
twice, indicating that a key is inside.
When you open one of the front doors and
lock your vehicle using the power door lock
control, all doors will lock then unlock if
the ignition is on.
