(Note:If two stage unlocking is disabled, all doors will unlock when you
press any button on the keyless entry keypad).
Activating Intelligent Access at the Trunk:If your Intelligent Access
Key is within 3 feet (1 meter) of the trunk, you can activate your
Intelligent Access system by pressing the exterior trunk release button,
hidden under the trim above the license plate. The trunk will release and
open.
Refer to theRemote entry systemin this section for more details on
how to use the lock, unlock, panic, or trunk buttons on the transmitter.
Your Intelligent Access system uses a RF signal to communicate with
your vehicle and authorize your vehicle to unlock when commanded
(either by pressing any keyless entry keypad button, the trunk button, or
a button on the transmitter itself). If excessive RF interference is
present in the area, or if your vehicle battery is low, it may be necessary
to mechanically unlock your door. The mechanical key blade in your
Intelligent Access Key can be used to open the driver’s door in this
situation (refer toIntelligent access keyin this chapter for more
information on the location and use of the mechanical key blade).
A mechanical key is needed for access if the Intelligent Access Key
battery or vehicle battery is low.
Push button startYour vehicle is equipped with a push button start
system, which allows you to start your vehicle without using a key. To
operate the push button start system and start your vehicle, your
Intelligent Access Key must be present inside the vehicle, either in the
passenger compartment or in the trunk. Refer toPush button startin
theDrivingchapter.
Unlocking the doors/two stage unlock
1. Pressand release to unlock the driver’s door.Note:The interior
lamps will illuminate.
2. Press
and release again within three seconds to unlock all the
doors.
The remote entry system activates the illuminated entry feature; this
feature turns on the lamps for 25 seconds or until the ignition is turned
on.
The inside lights will not turn off if:
•they have been turned on using the dimmer control or
•any door is open.

Note:When the vehicle is in motion, a single press and release of the
start/stop button will not switch off the engine. In order to switch off the
engine of a vehicle while in motion, press and hold the start/stop button
for at least one second.
Note:The indicator light on the start button will illuminate when the
vehicle is in on mode and when the engine is started.
There may be areas inside your vehicle where the IA Key is not
detected. If the messageNo Fob Detectedappears on your message
center when you press the start/stop button, it may be necessary to
move your IA Key to another area within the vehicle. The IA Key may
not be detected near the roof (between the driver or passenger sunvisor
and the roof, or in the overhead console area) or in the extreme corners
of the rear package tray, near your audio speakers. It is not
recommended that you stow the IA Key in these locations. If you move
the IA Key to a location where it has been detected before and you still
see theNo Fob Detectedmessage, your IA Key’s battery may be low or
you may be in an area with excessive radio frequency interference. If
this occurs, you can use the backup method to start your vehicle (see
below).
Backup Method of Starting:Your
Intelligent Access Key uses a radio
frequency signal to communicate
with your vehicle and authorize your
vehicle to start when you press the
start/stop button and apply the
brake pedal. If excessive radio
frequency interference is present in
the area, or if the battery in your IA
Key is low, it may be necessary to
start your car by inserting the IA
Key in the backup slot, located in
your glove box. Insert the IA Key
into the slot with buttons facing out
and with key ring up. After inserting
the IA Key into the backup slot, use
the start/stop button and brake
pedal to start your vehicle as usual.
The vehicle should respond normally
as long as the IA Key is in the
backup slot in the glove box. Once the vehicle is started, the IA key can
be removed from the backup slot, if desired.

Power distribution box
The power distribution box is located in the engine compartment. The
power distribution box contains high-current fuses that protect your
vehicle’s main electrical systems from overloads.
WARNING:Always disconnect the battery before servicing high
current fuses.
WARNING:To reduce risk of electrical shock, always replace
the cover to the Power Distribution Box before reconnecting the
battery or refilling fluid reservoirs.
If the battery has been disconnected and reconnected, refer to the
Batterysection of theMaintenance and Specificationschapter.

concentration should be maintained at 50/50 coolant and distilled water,
which equates to a freeze point of -34°F (-36°C). Coolant concentration
testing is possible with a hydrometer or antifreeze tester (such as the
Rotunda Battery and Antifreeze Tester, 014–R1060). The level of coolant
should be maintained at the “FULL COLD” level or within the “COLD
FILL RANGE” in the coolant reservoir. If the level falls below, add
coolant per the instructions in theAdding engine coolantsection.
Your vehicle was factory-filled with a 50/50 engine coolant and water
concentration. If the concentration of coolant falls below 40% or above
60%, the engine parts could become damaged or not work properly.A
50/50 mixture of coolant and water provides the following:
•Freeze protection down to -34°F (-36°C).
•Boiling protection up to 265°F (129°C).
•Protection against rust and other forms of corrosion.
•Proper function of calibrated gauges.
When the engine is cold, check the
level of the engine coolant in the
reservoir.
•The engine coolant should be at the “FULL COLD” level or within the
“COLD FILL RANGE” as listed on the engine coolant reservoir
(depending upon application).
•Refer toscheduled maintenance informationfor service interval
schedules.
•Be sure to read and understandPrecautions when servicing your
vehiclein this chapter.
If the engine coolant has not been checked at the recommended interval,
the engine coolant reservoir may become low or empty. If the reservoir is
low or empty, add engine coolant to the reservoir. Refer toAdding
engine coolantin this chapter.
Note:Automotive fluids are not interchangeable; do not use engine
coolant, antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outside of its specified
function and vehicle location.
