KEYS
KEY FOBS
Your vehicle is equipped with a key fob which supports
Passive Entry, Remote Keyless Entry (RKE), Keyless
Enter ‘n Go™ (if equipped), Remote Start (if equipped),
and Panic button operation. The key fob allows you to lock
or unlock the doors and liftgate from distances up to
approximately 66 ft (20 m). In some conditions, this
distance can be reduced or increased. The key fob does
not need to be pointed at the vehicle to activate the
system. The key fob also contains an emergency key,
which is stored in the rear of the key fob.
NOTE:
The key fob’s wireless signal may be blocked if the key
fob is located next to a metallic object, mobile phone,
laptop, wireless charging pad, or other electronic
device. This may result in poor performance.
If the key fob’s battery is near depletion, the key fob
performance can be reduced.
With the ignition on and the vehicle moving at 2 mph
(4 km/h), all RKE commands are disabled.
Key Fob
NOTE:
In case the ignition switch does not change with the push
of a button, the key fob may have a low or fully depleted
battery. A low key fob battery can be verified by referring to
the instrument cluster, which will display directions to
follow
Úpage 275.
To Unlock/Lock The Doors And Liftgate
Push and release the unlock button on the key fob once to
unlock the driver’s door. If selected within Uconnect
Settings, pushing the unlock button twice within five
seconds will unlock all the doors and the liftgate. To lock
all the doors and the liftgate, push the lock button once.
Unlock settings can be changed within the Uconnect
system
Úpage 130.
When the doors are unlocked, the turn signals will flash
and the illuminated entry system will be activated. When
the doors are locked, the turn signals will flash and the
horn will chirp.
Using The Panic Feature
To turn the Panic feature on or off, push the Panic button on
the key fob. When the Panic feature is activated, the turn
signals will flash, the horn may pulse on and off (if equipped
with horn alarm), and the interior lights will turn on.

14GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
The Panic feature will stay on for three minutes unless you
turn it off by either pushing the Panic button a second time
or driving the vehicle at a speed of 15 mph (24 km/h) or
greater.
NOTE:
The interior lights will turn off if you place the ignition in
the ON/RUN position while the Panic feature is
activated. However, the exterior lights and horn
(if equipped with horn alarm) will remain on.
You may need to be closer than 66 ft (20 m) from the
vehicle when using the key fob to turn off the Panic
feature due to the radio frequency noises emitted by
the system.
Key Left Vehicle Feature
If a valid key fob is no longer detected inside the vehicle
while the vehicle’s ignition system is in the ON/RUN or
START position, the message “Key Fob Has Left The
Vehicle” will be shown in the instrument cluster display
and an interior chime will sound. An exterior audible and
visual alert will also be activated to warn the driver.
The vehicle’s horn will rapidly chirp three times along with
a single flash of the vehicle’s exterior lights.
NOTE:
The doors have to be open and then closed in order for
the vehicle to detect a key fob. The Key Left Vehicle
feature will activate when the first door is closed and
no key fob is detected in the vehicle. If the warning has
been activated, and the other doors are closed, no
other warnings will be issued.
These alerts will not be activated in situations where
either the vehicle’s engine is left running with the key
fob inside, or the key fob’s wireless signals are blocked.

REMOTE START — IF EQUIPPED
This system uses the key fob to start the engine
conveniently from outside the vehicle while still
maintaining security. The system has a range
of approximately 328 ft (100 m).
Remote Start is used to defrost windows in cold weather
and to reach a comfortable climate in all ambient
conditions before the customer enters the vehicle.
NOTE:Obstructions between the vehicle and key fob may reduce
this range Úpage 275.
HOW TO USE REMOTE START
Push and release the Remote Start button on the key fob
twice within five seconds. The vehicle doors will lock, the
parking lights will flash, and the horn will chirp twice (if

cycle. Pushing the Remote Start button a third time shuts
the engine off.
To drive the vehicle, push the unlock button and place the
ignition in the ON/RUN position.
NOTE:
With Remote Start, the engine will only run for
15 minutes.
Remote Start can only be used twice.
If an engine fault is present or fuel level is low, the
vehicle will start and then shut down in 10 seconds.
The parking lights will turn on and remain on during
Remote Start mode.
For security, power window and power sunroof opera -
tion (if equipped) are disabled when the vehicle is in

REMOTE START ABORT MESSAGE —
I
F EQUIPPED
One of the following messages will display in the
instrument cluster display if the vehicle fails to remote
start or exits Remote Start prematurely:
Remote Start Aborted — Door Open
Remote Start Aborted — Hood Open
Remote Start Aborted — Fuel Low
Remote Start Aborted — Liftgate Open
Remote Start Aborted — Too Cold
Remote Start Aborted — Time Expired
Remote Start Disabled — Start Vehicle To Reset
The message will stay active until the ignition is placed in
the ON/RUN position.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security system monitors the vehicle doors,
hood, liftgate, and the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition for
unauthorized operation. It also monitors movement inside
the passenger compartment (volumetric protection —
if equipped), cutting of battery cables, and unexpected
lifting/tilting of the vehicle (anti-lift protection —
if equipped). If something triggers the system, the Vehicle Security
system will provide the following audible and visible
signals:
The horn will pulse
The turn signals will flash
NOTE:
The Vehicle Security system is activated by the Engine
Immobilizer system, which is automatically activated
when you get out of the vehicle with the key fob and
lock the doors.
The Vehicle Security system is factory adjusted to stan -
dards from different countries.
The Vehicle Security system is a complementary secu -
rity system developed to hinder the occurrence of
vehicle theft and prevent vandalism. It does not
prevent the theft of your vehicle; the system is a deter -
rent.
TO ARM THE SYSTEM
Follow these steps to arm the Vehicle Security system:
1. Make sure the vehicle’s ignition is placed in the OFF position.
For vehicles equipped with Keyless Entry, make
sure the vehicle’s keyless ignition system is OFF. 2. Perform one of the following methods to lock the
vehicle:
Push the lock button on the interior power door
lock switch with the driver and/or passenger door
open.
Push the lock button on the exterior Passive Entry
door handle with a valid key fob available in the
same exterior zone
Úpage 23.
Push the lock button on the key fob.
3. If any doors (or liftgate) are open, close them.
When the Vehicle Security system is armed (except on
some versions for specific markets), the system will emit
an acoustic warning and a warning light (located next to
the interior door handle) will flash until it is disarmed.
NOTE:
If there is a fault with the system, the system will emit
an acoustic signal a second time.
If this occurs, wait about 4 seconds and switch off the
Vehicle Security system following this procedure:
a. Press the unlock button on the key fob.
b. Check that the doors, hood, and liftgate are closed, and then reactivate the system by pressing
the lock button.
If the alarm emits a sound even when the doors, hood,
and liftgate are closed, there is a fault with the system.
Contact an authorized dealer for assistance.
The vehicle doors can be locked without arming the
Vehicle Security system by using the emergency key in
the exterior door lock cylinder.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE21
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
Úpage 23.
Cycle the ignition out of the OFF position to disarm the
system.
NOTE:
The driver's door key cylinder and liftgate button on the
key fob cannot arm or disarm the Vehicle Security
system. Use of the door key cylinder when the system
is armed will sound the alarm when the door is opened.
If the door is unlocked using the emergency key in the
driver’s door key cylinder when the alarm is active, the
alarm will not deactivate and will sound. The alarm can
then be disarmed by placing the ignition in the ON/RUN
position, or pushing the unlock button in the key fob.
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.
NOTE:The alarm does not turn off when the doors are unlocked
by inserting the blade of the emergency key (found inside
the key fob) into the door handle lock cylinder.
Disabling The System
To completely disable the system (e.g. during a lengthy
period of car inactivity), close the doors by turning the
emergency key in the door lock.
NOTE:If the key fob batteries become depleted, or the system
fails, the system can be switched off by cycling the ignition
out of the OFF position. Manually open the doors by
inserting the emergency key into the door lock cylinder,
and then place the key fob in the cupholder.
VOLUMETRIC/ANTI-LIFT PROTECTION —

be repeated each time the ignition is placed in the OFF
position.

184SAFETY
If A Deployment Occurs
The front air bags are designed to deflate immediately
after deployment.
NOTE:Front and/or side air bags will not deploy in all collisions.
This does not mean something is wrong with the air bag
system.
If you do have a collision which deploys the air bags, any
or all of the following may occur:
The air bag material may sometimes cause abrasions
and/or skin reddening to the occupants as the air bags
deploy and unfold. The abrasions are similar to friction
rope burns or those you might get sliding along a carpet
or gymnasium floor. They are not caused by contact
with chemicals. They are not permanent and normally
heal quickly. However, if you haven’t healed signifi -
cantly within a few days, or if you have any blistering,
see your doctor immediately.
As the air bags deflate, you may see some smoke-like
particles. The particles are a normal by-product of the
process that generates the non-toxic gas used for air
bag inflation. These airborne particles may irritate the
skin, eyes, nose, or throat. If you have skin or eye irrita -
tion, rinse the area with cool water. For nose or throat
irritation, move to fresh air. If the irritation continues,
see your doctor. If these particles settle on your
clothing, follow the garment manufacturer’s instruc -
tions for cleaning.
Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed.
If you are involved in another collision, the air bags will not
be in place to protect you.
NOTE:
Air bag covers may not be obvious in the interior trim,
but they will open during air bag deployment.
After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an
authorized dealer immediately.
Enhanced Accident Response System
In the event of an impact, if the communication network
remains intact, and the power remains intact, depending
on the nature of the event, the Occupant Restraint
Controller (ORC) will determine whether to have the
Enhanced Accident Response System perform the
provided functions:
Cut off fuel to the engine (if equipped)
Cut off battery power to the electric motor (if equipped)
Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power
Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as
the battery has power or for 15 minutes from the inter -
vention of the Enhanced Accident Response System
Unlock the power door locks Your vehicle may also be designed to perform any of these
other functions in response to the Enhanced Accident
Response System:
Turn off the Fuel Filter Heater, Turn off the HVAC Blower
Motor, Close the HVAC Circulation Door
Cut off battery power to the:
Engine
Electric Motor (if equipped)
Electric power steering
Brake booster
Electric park brake
Automatic transmission gear selector
Horn
Front wiperNOTE:After an accident, remember to cycle the ignition to the
STOP (OFF/LOCK) position and remove the key from the
ignition switch to avoid draining the battery. Carefully
check the vehicle for fuel leaks in the engine compartment
and on the ground near the engine compartment and fuel
tank before resetting the system and starting the engine.
If there are no fuel leaks or damage to the vehicle elec -
trical devices (e.g. headlights) after an accident, reset the
system by following the procedure provided. If you have
any doubt, contact an authorized dealer.
WARNING!
Deployed air bags and seat belt pretensioners cannot
protect you in another collision. Have the air bags, seat
belt pretensioners, and the seat belt retractor
assemblies replaced by an authorized dealer
immediately. Also, have the Occupant Restraint
Controller System serviced as well.
