A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system.
This system consists of a Key Fob with Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and a Wireless
Ignition Node (WIN) with integral ignition switch.
You can insert the Key Fob into the ignition
switch with either side up.
Keyless Enter-N-Go™ Feature
If this vehicle is equipped with the Keyless
Enter-N-Go™ feature, refer to “Starting Proce-
dures” in “Starting And Operating” for further
information.
Wireless Ignition Node (WIN)The Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) operates
similar to an ignition switch. It has four operating
positions, three of which are detented and one
spring-loaded. The detented positions are OFF,
ACC, and ON/RUN. The START position is a
spring-loaded momentary contact position.
When released from the START position, the
switch automatically returns to the detented
ON/RUN position.NOTE:
With the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ feature, the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
will display the ignition switch position
(OFF/ACC/RUN). Refer to “Electronic Ve-
hicle Information Center (EVIC)” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
Key FobThe Key Fob operates the ignition switch. Insert
the square end of the key fob into the ignition
switch located on the instrument panel and
rotate to the desired position. It also contains
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter
and an emergency key, which stores in the rear
of the Key Fob.
The emergency key allows for entry into the
vehicle on the driver’s side should the battery in
the vehicle or the RKE transmitter go dead. The
emergency key is also for locking the glove box.
You can keep the emergency key with you when
valet parking.
NOTE:
Entering a vehicle using the emergency key
with the security alarm armed, will result in
the alarm sounding. Insert the Key Fob
(even if the Key Fob battery is dead) into the
ignition switch to disarm security alarm.
To remove the emergency key, slide the me-
chanical latch at the top of the Key Fob side-
ways with your thumb and then pull the key out
with your other hand.

NOTE:You can insert the double-sided emergency
key into the lock cylinders with either side up.
Removing Key Fob From IgnitionPlace the shift lever in PARK. Turn the Key Fob to
the OFF position and then remove the Key Fob.
With the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ feature, the
EVIC will display the ignition switch position
“OFF/ACC/RUN”. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC)” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” for further information.NOTE:
•
If you try to remove the Key Fob before
you place the shift lever in PARK, it may
become trapped temporarily in the igni-
tion switch. If this occurs, rotate the key
to the right slightly, then remove the Key
Fob as described. If a malfunction occurs,
the system will trap the key in the ignition
switch to warn you that this safety feature
is inoperable. The engine can be started
and stopped, but the Key Fob cannot be
removed until you obtain service.
•
The power window switches, radio, power
sunroof (if equipped), and power outlets will
remain active for up to 10 minutes after the
ignition switch is turned to the OFF position.
Opening either front door will cancel this
feature. The time for this feature is program-
mable. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)/Personal Settings
(Customer-Programmable Features)” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument Panel” for fur-
ther information.
CAUTION!
• If your vehicle battery becomes low or
dead, your Key Fob will become locked in
the ignition.
• Do not attempt to remove the Key Fob
while in this condition, damage could occur
to the Key Fob or ignition module. Only
remove the emergency key for locking and
unlocking the doors.
• Leave the Key Fob in the ignition and
either:
• Jump Start the vehicle.
• Charge the battery.
WARNING!
•When leaving 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.

WARNING!(Continued)
•Allowing children to be in a vehicle unat-
tended is dangerous for a number of rea-
sons. A child or others could be seriously or
fatally injured. Children should be warned
not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal
or the shift lever.
•Do not leave the Key Fob in or near the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil-
dren, and do not leave a vehicle equipped
with Keyless Enter-N-Go™ in the ACC or
ON/RUN mode. 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 build-up may cause serious injury or
death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked car is an invitation to thieves.
Always remove Key Fob from the ignition
and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle
unattended.
Key-In-Ignition ReminderOpening the driver’s door when the Key Fob is
in the ignition and the ignition switch position is
OFF or ACC, sounds a signal to remind you to
remove the Key Fob.
NOTE:
The Key-In-Ignition reminder only sounds
when the Key Fob is placed in the OFF or
ACC ignition position.
With the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ feature, open-
ing the driver’s door when the vehicle’s ignition
switch is placed in ACC or ON/RUN (engine
stopped) will cause the reminder chime to
sound. Refer to “Starting Procedures” in “Start-
ing And Operating” for further information.
STEERING WHEEL LOCK — IF
EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with a passive
electronic steering wheel lock. This lock pre-
vents steering the vehicle without the ignition
key. The steering wheel lock has six positions
(one every 60 degrees). If the steering wheel is
moved to one of these six position with the key
in the off positions, the steering wheel will lock.
To Manually Lock The Steering WheelWith the engine running, rotate the steering
wheel one-half revolution in either direction
(three o’clock or nine o’clock position), turn off
the engine and remove the key. Turn the steer-
ing wheel slightly in either direction until the lock
engages.
14

To Release The Steering Wheel LockCycle the ignition and start the engine.
NOTE:
If you turned the wheel to the right to engage
the lock, you must turn the wheel slightly to
the right to disengage it. If you turned the
wheel to the left to engage the lock, turn the
wheel slightly to the left to disengage it.
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.
(Continued)
CAUTION!(Continued)
•The Sentry Key® Immobilizer system is
not compatible with some after-market re-
mote starting systems. Use of these sys-
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.
15

CAUTION!
•Always remove the Key Fobs from the
vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the
vehicle unattended.
• With Keyless Enter-N-Go™, always re-
member to place the ignition in the OFF
position.
At the time of purchase, the original owner is
provided with a four-digit Personal Identification
Number (PIN). Keep the PIN in a secure loca-
tion. This number is required for authorized
dealer replacement of Key Fobs. Duplication of
Key Fobs may be performed at an authorized
dealer.
NOTE:
When having the Sentry Key® Immobilizer
system serviced, bring all vehicle ignition
keys with you to an authorized dealer.Customer Key ProgrammingProgramming Key Fobs or RKE transmitters
may be performed at an authorized dealer.

PREMIUM VEHICLE SECURITY
ALARM — IF EQUIPPED
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.
16

To Arm The SystemFollow these steps to arm the theft alarm:
1. Remove the key from the ignition system
(refer to"Starting Procedures" in"Starting And
Operating" for further information).
• For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-
Go™, make sure the vehicle ignition system is
"OFF".

rity system. To do so, press the LOCK
button on the RKE transmitter three times
within 15 seconds of arming the system
(while the Vehicle Security Light is flash-
ing rapidly). The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to pro-
tect 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 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
battery becomes disconnected, the Vehicle Se-
curity Alarm will remain armed when the battery
is reconnected; the exterior lights will flash, the
