16GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer System prevents
unauthorized vehicle operation by disabling the
engine. The system does not need to be armed or
activated. Operation is automatic, regardless of
whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked.
The system uses a key fob, keyless push button
ignition and a Radio Frequency (RF) receiver to
prevent unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore,
only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle
can be used to start and operate the vehicle.
The system will shut the engine off in two seconds
if an invalid key fob is used to start the engine.
If the Vehicle Security Light is on after the ignition
is placed in the ON/RUN position, it indicates that
there is a problem with the electronics.
All of the keys provided with your new vehicle have
been programmed to the vehicle electronics.
NOTE:A key fob that has not been programmed is also
considered an invalid key Úpage 256.
IGNITION SWITCH
KEYLESS ENTER ‘N GO™ IGNITION
This feature allows the driver to operate the
ignition switch with the push of a button as long as
the key fob is in the passenger compartment.
The START/STOP ignition button has three
operating modes. The three modes are OFF,
ON/RUN, and START.

START/STOP Ignition Button
The push button ignition can be placed in the
following modes:
OFF

The engine is stopped
Some electrical devices (e.g. power locks,
alarm, etc.) are still available
ON/RUN
Driving position
All electrical devices are available (e.g. climate
controls, heated seats, etc.)
START
The engine will start (when foot is on the brake)
NOTE:
If the ignition switch does not change the mode by
pushing the button, the key fob may have a low or
depleted battery. In this situation, a backup method
can be used to operate the ignition switch. Put the
nose side (side opposite of the mechanical key) of
the key fob against the START/STOP ignition button
and push to operate the ignition switch.

CAUTION!
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not
compatible with some aftermarket Remote
Starting systems. Use of these systems may
result in vehicle starting problems and loss of
security protection.

Backup Starting Method

NOTE:
The key fob may not be detected by the vehicle
Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ 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 Keyless Enter ‘n
Go™ system from starting the vehicle.
For more information on normal engine starting,
see Ú
page 69.
When opening the driver's door and the ignition
is in the ON/RUN position (engine not running),
a chime will sound to remind you to place the
ignition in the OFF position. In addition to the
chime, the message “Vehicle ON” will display in
the cluster.
The ignition will automatically switch to the OFF
position if the following vehicle conditions last
for 30 minutes: ignition placed in ON/RUN posi -
tion, gear is in PARK and engine is off.
REMOTE START — IF EQUIPPED
This system uses the key fob to start the
engine conveniently from outside the
vehicle while still maintaining security.
The system has a range of approximately
300 ft (91 m).
Remote Start is used to defrost windows in cold
weather, and to reach a comfortable climate in all
ambient conditions before the driver enters the
vehicle.
NOTE:Obstructions between the vehicle and the key fob
may reduce this range Ú page 256.
WARNING!
When exiting the vehicle, always remove the
key fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.

Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended
is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fatally injured. Chil -
dren should be warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the gear selector.

Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or
in a location accessible to children, and do not
leave the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition in the
ON/RUN position. A child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.

Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat buildup
may cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation for thieves.
Always remove key fob from the vehicle and lock
all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
WARNING!
