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.
If set by the customer in the Uconnect Settings, 
unlocking with Passive Entry will initiate illumi -
nated approach (low beams, license plate 
lamp, position lamps) for the time 0, 30, 60 or 
90 seconds. Passive Entry also initiates two 
flashes of the turn 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 will arm the security 
system (if equipped).
The sliding side doors can be unlocked from the 
outside using the hands-free or Passive Entry 
system.
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
