A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS
The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) key fob contains an
integrated key. To use the mechanical key simply push
the mechanical key release button.
NOTE:The authorized dealer that sold you your ve-
hicle has the key code numbers for your vehicle locks.
These numbers can be used to order duplicate keys
from your authorized dealer.
Ignition Switch
The ignition switch can be turned to three different
positions:
• STOP: engine off, key can be removed. Some electri-
cal devices (e.g. sound system, central door locking
system, etc.) can operate;
NOTE: The transmission must be in PARK before the
key can be removed.
• AVV: engine start-up;
• MAR: driving position. All electrical devices are
enabled.
The ignition switch is fitted with a safety system that
requires the ignition key to be turned back to STOP if
the engine does not start, before the starting operation
can be repeated.

WARNING!
•Before exiting a vehicle, always shift the auto-
matic transmission into PARK, apply the parking
break, turn the vehicle OFF, remove the key fob
from the ignition and lock your vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with

(Continued)
WARNING! (Continued)
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. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or move
the vehicle.
• Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat buildup may
cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation. Always re-
move the key from the ignition and lock all the
doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.

Locking Doors With A Key
You can insert the key with either side up. To lock the
door, turn the key to the left. To unlock the door, turn
the key to the right. Refer to “Body Lubrication” in
“Maintaining Your Vehicle” for maintenance proce-
dures.
Key-In-Ignition Reminder
Opening the driver’s door when the key is in the
ignition and the ignition switch position is OFF/LOCK
sounds a signal to remove the key.
SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer System prevents unauthor-
ized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The
system does not need to be armed or activated. Opera-
tion is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
The system uses ignition keys which have an embedded
electronic chip (transponder) to prevent unauthorized
vehicle operation. Therefore, only keys that are pro-
grammed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate
the vehicle.NOTE:
A key which has not been programmed is also
considered an invalid key, even if it is cut to fit the
ignition switch lock cylinder for that vehicle.
If the Vehicle Security Light is on after the key is turned
to the ON/RUN position, it indicates that there is a
problem with the electronics.
CAUTION!
• Always remove the Sentry Key from the vehicle
and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle
unattended.
• The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not com-
patible with some aftermarket remote starting
systems. Use of these systems may result in
vehicle starting problems and loss of security
protection.
All of the keys provided with your new vehicle have
been programmed to the vehicle electronics.
2
THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 13

Replacement Keys
NOTE:Only keys that have been programmed to the
vehicle electronics can be used to start the vehicle. Once
a Sentry Key has been programmed to a vehicle, it
cannot be programmed to any other vehicle. When
having the Sentry Key Immobilizer System serviced,
bring all vehicle keys with you to an authorized
dealer.
General Information
The following regulatory statement applies to all radio
frequency (RF) devices equipped in this vehicle:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and
with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
NOTE: Changes or modifications not expressly ap-
proved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user ’s authority to operate the equipment.
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors
for unauthorized entry and the ignition switch for
unauthorized operation. While the Vehicle Security
Alarm is armed, interior switches for door locks and
liftgate release are disabled. If something triggers the
alarm, the Vehicle Security Alarm will provide the
following audible and visible signals: the horn will
pulse, the park lamps and/or turn signals will flash,
and the Vehicle Security Light on the instrument panel
will flash.
To Arm The System
1. Remove the key from the ignition switch and get out of the vehicle.
2. Lock the door using either the Central Lock/Unlock switch or the Remote Keyless Entry key fob and close
all doors.
3. The horn will sound and the Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster will switch on for approxi-
mately three seconds. This shows that the Vehicle
Security Alarm is arming. During this period, if a
door is opened, the ignition switch is turned to
ON/RUN, or the power door locks are unlocked in
14 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

any manner, the Vehicle Security Alarm will auto-
matically disarm. After approximately three seconds,
the Vehicle Security Light will flash. This shows that
the Vehicle Security Alarm is fully armed.
The activation of the Vehicle Security Alarm is followed
by a self-diagnosis stage. If a fault is detected during the
self-diagnosis stage, the horn will sound a second time.
If the horn sounds a second time, check that all doors,
hood and liftgate are closed correctly, then rearm the
system.
If the Vehicle Security Alarm sounds the horn a second
time even when all doors, hood and liftgate are cor-
rectly closed, a fault has occurred in the operation of the
system. Contact your authorized dealer.
To Disarm The System
Push unlock on the key fob, or insert the key into the
ignition switch and turn the ignition switch to the
ON/RUN position. NOTE:
The Vehicle Security Alarm will not disarm
when the metal insert of the key is used on a single door
lock cylinder.
The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to protect your
vehicle; however, you can create conditions where the
Vehicle Security Alarm will arm unexpectedly. If you
remain in the vehicle and lock the doors with the key
fob, once the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed, when
you pull the door handle to exit, the alarm will sound.
If this occurs, push the unlock button on the key fob to
disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
Central Lock/Unlock (Switch Safe Lock Device)
— If Equipped
This safety device prevents the operation of the interior
door handles and the door locking/unlocking button.
It prevents the opening of the doors from inside the
passenger compartment, serving as an obstacle to
break-in attempts (e.g. broken window).

each time you park your car.Activating The Safe Lock Device

quickly double-pushing the lock button on the key fob.
The direction indicators flash three times and the LED
above the button flashes to indicate that the Safe Lock
device has been activated. If one or more of the doors
are not closed correctly, the Safe Lock device will not
activate, preventing a person from getting stuck inside
the passenger compartment by entering the car
through, and then closing, the open door.
Deactivating The Safe Lock Device
The Safe Lock device deactivates automatically:
1. By pushing the unlock button on the key fob.
2. By turning the ignition key to the MAR position.
