Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry Key
Fob In Vehicle (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.
FOBIK-Safe only executes in vehicles with passive entry.
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.
Grab The Door Handle To Unlock
40 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

3. A lock request is made by the door panel switch whilethe 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
Passive Entry key fob inside the car, and it does not find
any Passive Entry key fobs outside the car, the car will
unlock and alert the customer.
NOTE: The vehicle will only unlock the doors when a valid
Passive Entry key fob is detected inside the vehicle, and no
valid Passive Entry key fob is detected outside the vehicle.
The vehicle will not unlock the doors when any of the
following conditions are true:
• The doors are manually locked using the door lock
knobs.
• There is a valid Passive Entry key fob outside the vehicle
and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of either Passive Entry door
handle.
• Three attempts are made to lock the doors using the
door panel switch and then close the doors. To Enter The Trunk:
With a Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the deck
lid, push the button located on the center of the light bar
which is located on the deck lid above the license plate.
NOTE:
If you inadvertently leave your vehicle’s Passive
Entry key fob in the trunk and try to close the deck lid, the
deck lid will automatically unlatch, unless another one of
the vehicle’s Passive Entry key fobs is outside the vehicle
and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the deck lid.

To Lock The Vehicle’s Doors:
With one of the vehicle’s Passive Entry key fobs within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the driver or passenger front door handles, push
the door handle lock button to lock both doors.
Do NOT grab the door handle, when pushing the door
handle button. This could unlock the door(s).NOTE:
•
After pushing the door handle button, you must wait
two seconds before you can lock or unlock the doors,
using either Passive Entry door handle. This is done to
allow you to check if the vehicle is locked by pulling the
door handle, without the vehicle reacting and unlocking.
• The Passive Entry system will not operate if the key fob
battery is dead.
The vehicle doors can also be locked by using the key fob
lock button or the lock button located on the vehicle’s
interior door panel.

INTERIOR LIGHTS
The interior lights come on when a door is opened.
To protect the battery, the interior lights will turn off
automatically ten minutes after the ignition is moved to the
OFF position. This will occur if the interior lights were
switched on manually or are on because a door is open.

ment light and the trunk light. To restore interior light
operation after automatic battery protection is enabled

NOTE:For vehicles equipped with the Uconnect system,
the power window switches will remain active for up to
ten minutes after the ignition is placed in the OFF position.
Opening either front door will cancel this feature. The time
is programmable. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multi-
media” for further information.
WARNING!
Never leave children unattended in a vehicle, and do
not let children play with power windows. 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. Occupants, particularly unat-
tended children, can become entrapped by the win-
dows while operating the power window switches.
Such entrapment may result in serious injury or death.
Auto-Down Feature
The driver and, in some models, passenger power window
switches have an Auto-Down feature. Push the window
switch to the second detent, release, and the window will
go down automatically. To open the window part way, push the window switch to
the first detent and release it when you want the window
to stop.
To stop the window from going all the way down during
the Auto-Down operation, pull up on the switch briefly.
Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the ears.
Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the windows
down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open or
partially open positions. This is a normal occurrence and
can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear
windows open, open the front and rear windows together
to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the
sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the
buffeting or open any window.

In order to enjoy the convenience of Open Dots wire-free
charging, you must obtain an aftermarket wireless-enabled
case and then install the case on your phone. Set the phone
on the wireless charging pad face up. The charging indi-
cator on your phone will light up indicating that your
phone is charging.
NOTE:The charging pad is safe to the touch. However, if
metallic items are placed on the charging surface while in
use, the device will turn off. Clean all spills immediately
and allow to dry before using.
For phones that already have built-in wireless charging
capability (Samsung, Apple iPhone 8, 8 Plus and X
Phones), a Qi Adapter is available to charge your phone
using the Open Dot wire-free phone charging surface.
Simply place the Qi Adapter (dot side down) on the
charging surface and then place your built-in charging
capable phone face up on top of the Qi Adapter. This
product may not be compatible with all vehicle/Open Dots
compatible wire-free phone charging surface combina-
tions.CAUTION!
The key fob should not be placed on the charging pad
or within 15 cm (150 mm) of it. Doing so can cause
excessive heat buildup and damage to the fob. Placing
the fob in close proximity of the charging pad blocks
the fob from being detected by the vehicle and pre-
vents the vehicle from starting.
To get your free aftermarket phone case or Qi Adapter, go
to http://invehiclewirelesscharging.com. You will need
your vehicle/voucher identification number (located in
your vehicle’s glove box). If you have any questions or are
not sure if you need a phone case or the Qi Adapter, please
