GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
KEYS
KEY FOB
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system.
The ignition system consists of a key fob with
R e

mote Keyless Entry (RKE) and a START/STOP
push button ignition system. The Remote
Keyless Entry system consists of a key fob and
Keyless Enter-N-Go feature if equipped.
NOTE:
The key fob may not be found if it is located next
t o

a mobile phone, laptop or other electronic
device; these devices may block the key fob’s
wireless signal.
The Remote Keyless Entry key fob also contains
an
emergency key, which stores in the rear of
the key fob.
The emergency key allows for entry into the
v e

hicle should the battery in the vehicle or the
key fob become depleted. The emergency key is
also for locking the glove compartment. You can
keep the emergency key with you when valet
parking. To remove the emergency key, slide the
m
e

chanical latch on the back of the key fob
sideways with your thumb and then pull the key
out with your other hand.

Emergency Key Removal

NOTE:
You can insert the double-sided emergency key
in
to the lock cylinders with either side up.
The Remote Keyless Entry system allows you to
l o

ck or unlock the doors, open the liftgate, or
activate the Panic Alarm from distances up to
approximately 66 ft (20 m). The key fob does
n o

t need to be pointed at the vehicle to activate
the system. NOTE:

Driving at speeds 2 mph (4 km/h) and above
d i

sables the system from responding to all key
fob buttons for all key fobs.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 17

After placing the ignition in the ON/RUN position,
the vehicle security light will turn on for
three seconds for a bulb check. If the light
r e

mains 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
b u

lb check, it indicates that someone used an
invalid key fob to start the engine. Either of these
conditions will result in the engine being shut off
after two seconds.

If the vehicle security light turns on during
no
rmal vehicle operation (vehicle running for
longer than 10 seconds), it indicates that there
is a fault in the electronics. Should this occur,
have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by
an authorized dealer.
All of the key fobs provided with your new
v e

hicle have been programmed to the vehicle
electronics.
KEY PROGRAMMING
Programming key fobs may be performed at an
authorized dealer.
REPLACEMENT KEYS
NOTE:
Only key fobs that are programmed to the
v e

hicle electronics can be used to start and
operate the vehicle. Once a key fob is
programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be
programmed to any other vehicle.
NOTE:
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an
a u

thorized dealer. This procedure consists of
programming a blank key fob to the vehicle
electronics. A blank key fob is one that has
never been programmed. When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer system
s
e

rviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an
authorized dealer.

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM — IF EQUIPPED

The vehicle security alarm monitors the vehicle
doors and liftgate for unauthorized entry and the
START/STOP ignition button for unauthorized
operation. While the vehicle security alarm is
armed, interior switches for door locks are
disabled. If something triggers the alarm, the
vehicle security alarm will provide the following
audible and visible signals: the horn will pulse,
the headlights will turn on, the park lamps and/or
turn signals will flash, and the vehicle security
light in the instrument cluster will flash.

TO ARM THE SYSTEM
Follow these steps to arm the vehicle security
alarm:

1. M ake sure the vehicle ignition system is
O
FF (refer to "Starting The Engine" in
"Starting And Operating" for further
information).

2. Perform one of the following methods to l
ock the vehicle:
Push lock 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 (refer to "Keyless Enter-N-Go —
Passive Entry" in “Doors” in this chapter
for further information).
Push the lock button on the key fob.
3. I f any doors are open, close them.
TO DISARM THE SYSTEM
The vehicle security alarm can be disarmed
using any of the following methods:
Push the unlock button on the key fob.

Grasp the Passive Entry Door Handle with a
valid key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the passive
e n

try door handle (if equipped). Refer to
"Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry" in
“Doors” in this chapter for further information.

Cycle the vehicle ignition system out of the
OFF position.
For vehicles equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry, push the
START/STOP ignition button (requires at
least one valid key fob in the vehicle).

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 19
NOTE:
The driver's door key cylinder and the liftgate
button on the key fob cannot arm or disarm
the vehicle security alarm.
When the vehicle security alarm is armed,
the interior power door lock switches will not
unlock the doors.
The vehicle security alarm is designed to protect
y o

ur 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
alarm 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 alarm.
If the vehicle security alarm is armed and the
b a

ttery becomes disconnected, the vehicle
security alarm will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash, the horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm
the vehicle security alarm.
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 3 minutes, turn all of the
v i

sual signals off after 15 additional minutes,
and then the vehicle security alarm will rearm
itself.
SECURITY SYSTEM MANUAL OVERRIDE
The vehicle security alarm will not arm/disarm if
you lock/unlock the doors using the manual
door lock.
TAMPER ALERT
If something has triggered the vehicle security
alarm in your absence, the horn will sound three
times and the exterior lights will blink three
times when you disarm the vehicle security
alarm. Check the vehicle for tampering.
