SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents unauthor-
ized 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 Key Fob with factory-mated Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter (RKE Key Fob) to pre-
vent unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore, only
RKE Key Fob 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.
After turning the ignition switch to the ON/RUN posi-
tion, the Vehicle Security Light will turn on for three
seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains on after the
bulb check, it indicates that there is a problem with the
electronics. In addition, if the light begins to flash after
the bulb check, it indicates that someone used an invalid
RKE Key Fob to start the engine. Either of these condi-
tions will result in the engine being shut off after two
seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during normal
vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than 10
seconds), it indicates that there is a fault in the electron-
ics. Should this occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon
as possible by an authorized dealer.

CAUTION!
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not compat-
ible with some aftermarket remote starting systems.
Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting
problems and loss of security protection.
All of the RKE Key Fobs provided with your new vehicle
have been programmed to the vehicle electronics.
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM — IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors
for unauthorized entry and the ignition switch for unau-
thorized operation. When the alarm is activated, the
interior switches for door locks, power sliding doors and
power liftgate are disabled. The Vehicle Security Alarm
provides both audible and visible signals. If something
triggers the alarm, the Vehicle Security Alarm will pro-
vide the following audible and visible signals: the horn will pulse, the park lamps and/or turn signals will flash,
and the Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster
will flash.
Rearming Of The System
If something triggers the alarm, and no action is taken to
disarm it, the Vehicle Security Alarm will turn the horn
off after 29 seconds, 5 seconds between cycles, up to 8
cycles if the trigger remains active and then the Vehicle
Security Alarm will rearm itself.
To Arm The System
Follow these steps to arm the Vehicle Security Alarm:
1. Make sure the vehicles ignition is cycled to the “OFF”
position (refer to Starting Procedures inStarting
And Operating for further information).
• For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go —
Passive Entry, make sure the vehicle ignition system
is OFF.

If the door lock button is locked (no ribbing is visible)
when you shut the door, the door will lock. Therefore,
make sure the Key Fob is not inside the vehicle before
closing the door.
NOTE:The manual door locks will not lock or unlock
the liftgate.
NOTE:
• 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.
• Never use the PARK position as a substitute for the
parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully

•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. 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 with Keyless Enter-
N-Go in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle.

you from accidentally locking your keys in the vehicle.
Placing the ignition in the OFF position or closing the

If you push the power door lock switch while the sliding
door is open, the sliding door will lock.
Unlock Doors Automatically On Exit — If

all of the vehicle doors when any door is opened. This
will occur only after the gear selector has been placed
into the PARK position, after the vehicle has been driven
(the gear selector has been placed out of PARK and all
doors closed).
The Unlock Doors Automatically On Exit feature will not
operate if there is any manual operation of the power
door locks (lock or unlock).For further information, refer to
Uconnect Settings” in
“Multimedia”.
Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry
The Passive Entry system is an enhancement to the
vehicle’s Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system and a
feature of Keyless Enter-N-Go. This feature allows you to
lock and unlock the vehicle’s door(s) without having to
push the RKE key fob lock or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
• Passive Entry may be programmed ON/OFF, dis-
abling passive entry will also disable the hands free
sliding doors and liftgate closures. Refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” for further information.
• If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it has been
raining on the Passive Entry door handle, the unlock
sensitivity can be affected, resulting in a slower re-
sponse time.

To Unlock From The Passenger Side:
With a valid RKE key fob within 3 ft (1 m) of the
passenger door handle, grab the front passenger door
handle to unlock all four doors and the liftgate automati-
cally. The interior door panel lock knob will raise when
the door is unlocked.
NOTE:All doors will unlock when the front passenger
door handle is grabbed regardless of the driver ’s door
unlock preference setting (“Unlock Driver Door 1st
Press” or “Unlock All Doors 1st Press”).
Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of RKE key fob In
Vehicle (FOBIK-Safe)
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally locking a
RKE key fob inside your vehicle, the Passive Entry
system is equipped with an automatic door unlock
feature which will function if the ignition switch is in the
OFF position. FOBIK-Safe only executes in vehicles with Passive Entry.
There are three situations that trigger a FOBIK-Safe
search in any Passive Entry vehicle:
•
A lock request is made by a valid RKE key fob while a
door is open.
• A lock request is made by the Passive Entry door
handle while a door is open.
• 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
finds a RKE key fob inside the car, and it does not find
any RKE key fob outside the car, then the car will unlock
and alert the customer.
