KEYS
Key Fob
Your vehicle uses a key start ignition system.
The ignition system consists of a key fob with
a Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) and an igni-
tion switch.
The key fob contains an integrated mechani-
cal key. To use the mechanical key, simply
push the mechanical key release button.
The vehicle is supplied with a code card
containing key code numbers to order dupli-
cate keys, and the authorized dealer that sold
you your new vehicle has the key code num-
bers for your vehicle locks. These numbers
can be used to order duplicate keys.Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
This system allows you to lock or unlock the
doors from distances up to approximately
66 ft (20 m) using a hand-held key fob. The
key fob does not need to be pointed at the
vehicle to activate the system. NOTE:
The key fob may not be able to be detected by
the vehicle if it is located next to a mobile
phone, laptop or other electronic device;
these devices may block the key fob’s wire-
less signal.
To Unlock The Doors
Push and release the unlock button on key
fob once to unlock only the front doors. Push
and release the cargo unlock button on key
fob once to unlock the cargo area (rear lateral
sliding doors and rear door). The turn signal
lights will flash to acknowledge the unlock
signal.
To Lock The Doors
Push and release the lock button on the key
fob to lock all doors. The turn signal lights
will flash to acknowledge the signal; the horn
will chirp too during turn signal lights flash-
ing.
If a door is open, the turn signal lights will
flash at an increased rate, and there will be
no horn chirp. This is to indicate that a door is
still open.
