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.
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.
• Never use the PARK position as a substitute for the
parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully
when parked to guard against vehicle movement and
possible injury or damage.
• When exiting the vehicle, always make sure the
keyless ignition node is in the “OFF” mode, remove
the key fob from the vehicle and lock the vehicle.
• 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.

NOTE:
•Passive Entry may be programmed ON/OFF. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further infor-
mation.

using the hands free or Passive Entry system.
• The key fob may not be able to be detected by the vehicle
passive entry system if it is located next to a mobile
phone, laptop, wireless charging pad, 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.
• If set by the customer in the Uconnect Settings, unlock-
ing with Passive Entry will initiate illuminated approach (low beams, license plate lamp, position lamps) for the
time 0, 30(default), 60 or 90 seconds. Passive Entry also

Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Key Fob In Vehicle
(FOBIK-Safe)
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally locking a
key fob inside your vehicle, the Passive Entry system is
equipped with an automatic door unlock feature. 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 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
key fob inside the car, and it does not find any key fob
outside the car, then the car will unlock and alert the
customer.
NOTE: The vehicle will only unlock the doors when a valid
key fob is detected inside the vehicle, and no valid key fob
is detected outside the vehicle. The vehicle will not unlock
the doors when any of the following conditions are met:
• The doors are manually locked using the door lock
knobs.
• There is a valid key fob outside the vehicle and within
5 ft (1.5 m) of either Passive Entry door handle.
