KEYS
Your vehicle uses keyless ignition system.
The ignition system consists of a key fob with
a Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) and an igni-
tion switch. The keyless ignition system con-
sists of a key fob and Keyless Enter-N-Go
button.
Key Fob
The key fob allows you to lock or unlock the
doors and liftgate from distances up to ap-
proximately 66 ft (20 m) using a handheld
key fob. The key fob does not need to be
pointed at the vehicle to activate the system.
NOTE:
In the ON/RUN position, the lock button is
disabled. Only the unlock button is enabled.
To Unlock The Doors And Liftgate
Push and release the unlock button on the
key fob once to unlock the driver's door or
twice within five seconds to unlock all doors
and the liftgate.All doors can be programmed to unlock on the
first push of the unlock button. Refer to
“Programmable Features” in the “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” section of this
guide.
To Lock The Doors And Liftgate
Push and release the lock button on the key
fob to lock all doors and liftgate.
Vehicles Equipped With Keyless Enter-N-Go —
Passive Entry
If one or more doors are open, or the liftgate is
open, the doors will lock. The doors will
unlock again automatically if the key is left
inside the passenger compartment, otherwise
the doors will stay locked.
Request For Additional Key Fobs
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 pro-
grammed to a vehicle, it cannot be pro-
grammed to any other vehicle.

positions. The three positions are OFF, RUN,
and START.
NOTE:
If the ignition switch does not change with
the push of a button, the key fob may have a
low or dead battery. In this situation, a back
up method can be used to operate the igni-
tion switch. Put the nose side (side opposite
of the emergency key) of the key fob against
the ENGINE START/STOP button and push to
operate the ignition switch. The push button ignition can be placed in the

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 Monox-
ide is poisonous and can cause you or
others to be severely injured or killed
when inhaled.

NOTE:
Changes or modifications not expressly ap-
proved by the party responsible for compli-
ance could void the user’s authority to oper-
ate the equipment.
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.
All of the key fobs provided with your new
vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle
electronics.
Irregular Operation
The system uses a key fob, an Ignition Node
Module, Keyless Push Button Ignition and a
RF receiver to prevent unauthorized vehicle
operation. Therefore, only key fobs that are
programmed to the vehicle can be used tostart and operate the vehicle. The system will
not allow the engine to crank if an invalid key
fob is used to start and operate the vehicle.
The system will shut the engine off in two
seconds if an invalid key fob is used to start
the engine.
NOTE:
A key fob that has not been programmed is
also considered an invalid key.
During normal operation, after placing the
keyless ignition in 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
addition, if the light begins to flash after the
bulb check, it indicates that someone used
an invalid key fob to try 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 thatthere is a fault in the electronics. Should this
occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as
possible by an authorized dealer.
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
— IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the ve-
hicle doors, hood, liftgate, and the Keyless
Enter-N-Go — Ignition for unauthorized op-
eration. 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
• The Vehicle Security Light in the instru- ment cluster will flash
