SENTRY KEY®
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer system prevents
unauthorized vehicle operation by disabling the
engine. The system does not need to be armed
or activated. Operation is automatic, regardless
of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked.
The system uses the factory-mated Key Fob
with Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter
and Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) to prevent
unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore, only
Key Fobs that are programmed to the vehicle
can be used to start and operate the vehicle.
The system will shut the engine off in two sec-
onds if an invalid Key Fob is used to start the
engine.After turning the ignition switch to the ON/RUN
position, the Vehicle Security Light will turn on
for three seconds for a bulb check. If the light
remains on after the bulb check, it indicates that
there is a problem with the electronics. In addi-
tion, if the light begins to flash after the bulb
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
normal 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.
CAUTION!
•
Do not make modifications or alterations to
the immobilizer system. Modifications or
alterations to the immobilization system
may result in a loss of security protection.

CAUTION!(Continued)
•The Sentry Key® Immobilizer system is

tems may result in vehicle starting prob-
lems and loss of security protection.
All of the Key Fobs provided with your new
vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle
electronics.
Replacement Keys
NOTE:
Only Key Fobs that are programmed to the
vehicle electronics can be used to start and
operate the vehicle. Once a Key Fob is
programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be pro-
grammed to any other vehicle.

Key Fobs may be performed at an authorized
dealer.

system serviced, bring all vehicle ignition
keys with you to an authorized dealer.Customer Key ProgrammingProgramming Key Fobs or RKE transmitters

The Premium Vehicle Security Alarm system
monitors the doors, hood latch, liftgate flipper
glass, and liftgate for unauthorized entry and
the ignition switch for unauthorized operation.
The system also includes a dual function intru-
sion sensor and vehicle tilt sensor. The intrusion
sensor monitors the vehicle interior for motion.
The vehicle tilt sensor monitors the vehicle for
any tilting actions (tow away, tire removal, ferry
transport, etc). A siren with battery backup
which senses interruptions of power and com-
munications is also included.
If a perimeter violation triggers the security
system, the siren will sound for 30 seconds and
the exterior lights will flash followed by approxi-
mately five seconds of no activity. This will
continue for eight cycles if no action is taken to
disarm the system.
