1. This device may not cause interference.
2. This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation of the device.
This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry Canada.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause interference.
2. This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation of the device.
Changes or modi cations to this system by other than
an authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.If there is a decrease in the RKE operating range,
try this:
Check the distance. The transmitter may be too
far from the vehicle. Stand closer during rainy
or snowy weather.
Check the location. Other vehicles or objects
may be blocking the signal. Take a few steps

Remote Vehicle Start
The remote vehicle starting feature allows you to start
the engine from outside of the vehicle. It also starts up
the vehicle’s automatic climate control system. When the
remote start system is active, the climate control system
will heat and cool the inside of the vehicle according to
the previous settings of the system before turning the
vehicle off. The rear window defogger will be turned on
by the climate control system when it is cold outside.
If the vehicle has heated seats, they will also turn on.
SeeHeated Seats on page 1-4for additional information.
Normal operation of the climate control system will return
after the key is turned to ON/RUN. SeeDual Climate
Control System on page 3-22.
Laws in some communities may restrict the use of
remote starters. For example, some laws may require
a person using remote start to have the vehicle in
view when doing so. Check local regulations for any
requirements on remote starting of vehicles.
Do not use the remote start feature if your vehicle is low
on fuel. Your vehicle may run out of fuel.
If the vehicle has the remote start feature, the RKE
transmitter functions will have an increased range
of operation. However, the range may be less while
the vehicle is running.There are other conditions which can affect the
performance of the transmitter, seeRemote Keyless
Entry (RKE) System Operation on page 2-4for

Doors and Locks
Door Locks
{CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers, especially children, can easily
open the doors and fall out of a moving
vehicle. When a door is locked, the handle
will not open it. You increase the chance of
being thrown out of the vehicle in a crash if
the doors are not locked. So, wear safety
belts properly and lock the doors whenever
you drive.
Young children who get into unlocked vehicles
may be unable to get out. A child can be
overcome by extreme heat and can suffer
permanent injuries or even death from heat
stroke. Always lock your vehicle whenever
you leave it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an
unlocked door when you slow down or stop
your vehicle. Locking your doors can help
prevent this from happening.
There are several ways to lock and unlock the vehicle.Because the vehicle has the theft-deterrent system, the
doors must be unlocked from the outside with the
key or Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter to avoid
setting off the alarm. If the windows are down and
the doors are locked, do not reach in to manually
unlock the vehicle because you will set off the alarm.
From the inside, use the manual lock levers located on
the door panels near the windows.
Push down on the manual lock lever to lock the door.
To unlock the door, pull up on the lever.

path of the power liftgate. Make sure there is no
one in the way of the liftgate as it is opening and
closing.
Notice:If you open the liftgate without checking for
overhead obstructions such as a garage door, you
could damage the liftgate or the liftgate glass. Always
check to make sure the area above and behind the
liftgate is clear before opening it.To open and close the liftgate, press and hold
the power liftgate button on the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter until the liftgate starts moving.
Press the RKE button a second time to reverse that

Theft-Deterrent Systems
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
This vehicle has theft-deterrent features, however,
they do not make it impossible to steal.
Theft-Deterrent System
The security light is
located on the instrument
panel cluster.
If the ignition is off and a door is open, the security
light will ash, reminding you to arm the theft-deterrent
system.
To arm the system:
1. Lock the door using the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter or the power door lock switch.
2. Close all the doors. The security light will illuminate.
It should go off within approximately 30 seconds.If a door or a liftgate is opened without a key or a
RKE transmitter, the horn will sound and the lamps
will ash for up to 30 seconds.
The theft-deterrent system will not arm if you lock
the doors with a key, use the manual door lock or if
the liftgate is ajar. It activates only if you use the RKE
transmitter or the power door lock.
To avoid activating the alarm by accident:The vehicle should be locked with the door key or
the manual door lock after the doors are closed if
you don’t want to arm the theft-deterrent system.
Always unlock a door with a key or use the RKE
transmitter. Pressing the unlock button on the
RKE transmitter disarms the theft-deterrent system.
Unlocking a door any other way while the system
is armed will activate the alarm when a door or
the liftgate is opened.
If you activate the alarm by accident, unlock the driver’s
door with your key. You can also turn off the alarm
by using the unlock button on the RKE transmitter,
or by starting the vehicle with a valid key.
