KEYLESS ENTER-N-GO™
The Passive Entry system is an enhancement to the
vehicle’s Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system and a
feature of Keyless Enter-N-Go™. This feature allows
you to lock and unlock the vehicle’s door(s) without
having to press the RKE transmitter lock or unlock
buttons.
NOTE:
• Passive Entry may be programmed ON/OFF; refer to“Uconnect® Settings” in “Knowing Your Vehicle” for
further information.
• If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it has been raining on the Passive Entry door handle, the unlock
sensitivity can be affected, resulting in a slower re-
sponse time.
• If the vehicle is unlocked by the RKE transmitter or Passive Entry and no door goes ajar within 60 sec-
onds, the vehicle will re-lock and will arm the theft
alarm. To Unlock From The Driver's Side:
With a valid Passive Entry RKE transmitter within
1.5 m of the driver's door handle, grab the driver's
front door handle to unlock the driver's door auto-
matically. The interior door panel lock knob will raise
when the door is unlocked.
(fig. 99)
NOTE:
If “Unlock All Doors 1st Press” is pro-
grammed all doors will unlock when you grab hold of
the driver’s front door handle. To select between
“Unlock Driver Door 1st Press” and “Unlock All
Doors 1st Press”, refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)/Personal Settings (Customer-
Programmable Features)” in “Knowing Your Vehicle”

LIFTGATE
The liftgate can be unlocked or locked with the Re-
mote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter, the Keyless
Enter-N-Go™ (Passive Entry) or by activating the
power door lock switch located on either front door
trim panel.
For further information on Keyless Enter-N-Go™
(Passive Entry), refer to “Keyless Enter-N-Go™” in
“Starting And Driving”.
NOTE:The liftgate cannot be unlocked or locked with
the manual door lock plungers on the door trim panels
or the door lock cylinder on the driver's door.
To open the unlocked liftgate, squeeze the handle and
pull the liftgate toward you. Gas props will raise and
support the liftgate in the open position.
(fig. 105)
NOTE: Because the gas pressure drops with tempera-
ture, it may be necessary to assist the props when
opening the liftgate in cold weather.
WARNING!
• Driving with the liftgate open can al-
low poison

ous exhaust gases into your
vehicle. These fumes could injure you and your
passengers. Keep the liftgate closed when you are
operating the vehicle.
• If you are required to drive with the liftgate
open, make sure that all windows are closed, and
the blower switch on the climate control is set at
high speed. Do not use the recirculation mode.
