GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE19
RUN
Driving position.
All electrical devices are available.
START
The engine will start.
NOTE:In case the ignition switch does not change with
the push of the START/STOP ignition button, the
key fob may have a low or depleted battery. In this
situation, a backup method can be used to operate
the ignition switch. Put the nose side of the key fob
(side with the mechanical flip key) against the
START/STOP ignition button and push to operate
the ignition switch.
Backup Starting Method
Do Not Use Mechanical Key
CAUTION!
Do not press the mechanical key against the
START/STOP ignition button.
Do not use sharp metal objects (e.g. screw -
driver etc.) to pry the button out of the ignition
switch. This button comes as an assembly,
and is not removable. This can damage the
silicone shield.
WARNING!
When exiting the vehicle, always remove the
key fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children 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, and do
not leave the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition in
the ON/RUN position. 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.

20GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
NOTE:When opening the driver's door with the ignition in
the ON/RUN (engine not running) position, a chime
will sound to remind you to place the ignition in the
OFF position. In addition to the chime, the
message will display “Ignition Or Accessory On” in
the cluster.
REMOTE START — IF EQUIPPED
(GASOLINE)
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 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 driver enters the
vehicle.
NOTE:
The vehicle must be equipped with an auto -
matic transmission to be equipped with Remote
Start.
Obstructions between the vehicle and key fob
may reduce this range Ú page 432.
HOW TO USE REMOTE START
Push and release the Remote Start button on the
key fob twice within five seconds. The vehicle
doors and tailgate will lock, the turn signals will
flash twice, and the horn will chirp twice (if
equipped). Pushing the Remote Start button again
will shut the engine off.
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 operation is
disabled when the vehicle is in the Remote Start
mode.
The ignition must be placed in the ON/RUN posi -
tion before the Remote Start sequence can be
repeated for a third cycle.
All of the following conditions must be met before
the engine will remote start:
Gear selector in PARK
Doors closed
Hood closed
Hazard switch off
Brake switch inactive (brake pedal not pressed)
Battery at an acceptable charge level
Panic button not pushed
System not disabled from previous Remote
Start event
CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation for thieves.
Always remove key fob from the vehicle and lock
all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
WARNING!
Do not start or run an engine in a closed
garage or confined area. Exhaust gas contains
carbon monoxide (CO) which is odorless and
colorless. Carbon monoxide is poisonous and
can cause serious injury or death when
inhaled.
Keep key fobs away from children. Operation
of the Remote Start system, windows, door
locks or other controls could cause serious
injury or death.

VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security system monitors the vehicle
doors for unauthorized entry and the ignition
switch for unauthorized operation. When the
system is activated, the interior switches for door
locks are disabled. The Vehicle Security system
provides both audible and visible signals. If
something triggers the alarm, the Vehicle Security
system will provide the following audible and
visible signals: the horn will pulse, the parking
lights 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
system:
1. Make sure the vehicle’s ignition is placed in
the OFF position.
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 avail -
able in the same exterior zone Ú page 25.
Push the lock button on the key fob.
3. If any doors are open, close them.
NOTE:The Vehicle Security system will not arm if you lock
the doors using the manual door lock.
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 (if equipped)
Ú page 25.
Cycle the vehicle ignition system out of the OFF
position.
NOTE:
The driver's door key cylinder cannot arm or
disarm the Vehicle Security system.
When the Vehicle Security system is armed, the
interior power door lock switches will not unlock
the doors.
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
2
23_JT_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 23
Page 26 of 448
24GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
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.
REARMING OF THE SYSTEM
If something triggers the alarm and no action is
taken to disarm it, the Vehicle Security system will
turn the horn off after a 29 second cycle (with five
seconds between cycles and up to eight cycles if
the trigger remains active) and then rearm itself.
DOORS

door lock lever. To lock a door when leaving your
vehicle, push the rocker lever forward to the lock
position and close the door. To unlock the door,

unlock the door cylinders, tailgate, glove
compartment, and storage compartments (if
equipped).CAUTION!

water to leak into the vehicle’s interior.
WARNING!
For personal security reasons and safety in a
collision, lock the vehicle doors when you
drive, as well as when you park and exit the
vehicle.
When exiting the vehicle, always place the
ignition in the OFF position and remove the
key from the vehicle. Unsupervised use of
vehicle equipment may cause severe personal
injuries and death.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children 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.
