closed, and moving objects should not be left in
the vehicle when the intrusion detection is
armed, otherwise false alarms can occur.
Once the security system is armed, it remains in
that state until you disarm it by following either
of the disarming procedures described. If a
power loss occurs after arming the system, you
must disarm the system after restoring power to
prevent alarm activation.
The ultrasonic intrusion sensor (motion
detector) actively monitors your vehicle every
time you arm the Vehicle Security system. If you
prefer, you can turn off the ultrasonic intrusion
sensor when arming the Vehicle Security
system. To do so, push the lock button on the
key fob three times within 15 seconds of arming
the system (while the Vehicle Security Light is
flashing rapidly). The vehicle will remain locked
but disable the alarm in the case of repeated
false alarms due to ambient conditions.
TO DISARM THE SYSTEM
The Vehicle Security system can be disarmed using
any of the following methods:
Push the unlock button on the key fob.
Grab the Passive Entry door handle to unlock
the door Ú page 23.
Cycle the vehicle ignition system out of the OFF
position by pushing the START/STOP ignition
button (requires at least one valid key fob in the
vehicle).
NOTE:
The driver's door key cylinder and the trunk
button on the key fob cannot arm or disarm the
Vehicle Security system.
The Vehicle Security system remains armed
during power trunk entry. If a valid key fob or key
fob passive entry is used to open the trunk, the
motion sensing will be suppressed until after
the trunk is closed. If someone enters the
vehicle through the trunk and opens any door,
the alarm will sound.
When the Vehicle Security system is armed, the
interior power door lock switches will not unlock
the doors.
The ultrasonic intrusion sensor (motion
detector) actively monitors your vehicle every
time you arm the Vehicle Security system. If you
prefer, you can turn off the ultrasonic intrusion
sensor when arming the Vehicle Security
system. To do so, push the lock button on the key fob three times within 15 seconds of arming
the system (while the Vehicle Security Light is
flashing rapidly). The vehicle will remain locked
but disable the alarm in the case of repeated
false alarms due to ambient conditions.
The Vehicle Security system is designed to protect
your vehicle; however, you can create conditions
where the system will give you a false alarm. If one
of the previously described arming sequences has
occurred, the Vehicle Security system will arm
regardless of whether you are in the vehicle or not.
If you remain in the vehicle and open a door, the
alarm will sound. If this occurs, disarm the Vehicle
Security system.
If the Vehicle Security system is armed and the
battery becomes disconnected, the Vehicle
Security system will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will flash
and the horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm the
Vehicle Security system.
SECURITY SYSTEM MANUAL OVERRIDE
The Vehicle Security system will not arm if you lock
the doors using the manual door lock.

signal may get blocked, and the driver’s door may
not unlock automatically.
WARNING!
For personal security and safety in the event
of a collision, lock the vehicle doors before you
drive as well as when you park and leave the
vehicle.
When exiting the vehicle, always make sure
the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition is placed in
the OFF position, 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 chil -
dren to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fatally injured.
Children 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 ignition of a vehicle equipped

a mobile phone, laptop or other electronic device;
these devices may block the key fob’s wireless
signal and prevent the Passive Entry handle from
locking/unlocking the vehicle.

Passive Entry Unlock initiates illuminated approach
(low beams, license plate lamp, position lamps) for
whichever time duration is set between 0, 30, 60 or
90 seconds. Passive Entry Unlock also initiates two
flashes of the turn signal lamps.

If wearing gloves, or if it has been raining/
snowing on the Passive Entry door handle, the
unlock sensitivity can be affected, resulting in a
slower response time.
If the vehicle is unlocked by Passive Entry and
no door is opened within 60 seconds, the
vehicle will relock and (if equipped) will arm the
Vehicle Security system.
To Unlock From The Driver Or Passenger Side
With a Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of
the door handle, grab the handle to unlock the
vehicle. Grabbing the driver’s door handle will
unlock the driver door automatically. Grabbing the
passenger door handle will unlock both doors
automatically.

Grab The Door Handle To Unlock

NOTE:
Either the driver door only or all doors will unlock
when you grab hold of the front driver’s door
handle, depending on the selected setting in the
Uconnect system Ú page 129.
All doors will unlock when the front passenger
door handle is grabbed regardless of the
driver’s door unlock preference setting.
Frequency Operated Button Integrated Key
(FOBIK-Safe)
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally
locking a Passive Entry key fob inside your vehicle,
the Passive Entry system is equipped with an
automatic door unlock feature which will function if
the ignition is in the OFF position.
There are three situations that trigger a
FOBIK-Safe search in any Passive Entry vehicle.

1. A lock request is made by a valid Passive Entry key fob while a door is open.

2. A lock request is made by the Passive Entry door handle while a door is open.
3. A lock request is made by the door panel switch while the door is open.
When any of these situations occur, after all open
doors are shut, the FOBIK-Safe search will be
executed. If it detects a Passive Entry key fob
inside the vehicle, the vehicle will unlock and alert
the customer.2
