NOTE:
If “Unlock All Doors 1st Press” is pro-
grammed all doors will unlock when you grab
hold of the front driver’s door handle. To
select between “Unlock Driver Door 1st
Push” and “Unlock All Doors 1st Press,”
refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multime-
dia” for further information.
To Unlock From The Passenger Side
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the passenger door handle, grab
the front passenger door handle to unlock all
four doors and the liftgate automatically.
NOTE:
All doors will unlock when the front passen-
ger door handle is grabbed regardless of the
driver’s door unlock preference setting (“Un-
lock Driver Door 1st Press” or “Unlock All
Doors 1st Press”).Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry
Key Fob In Vehicle (FOBIK-Safe)
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally
locking a Passive Entry key fob inside your
vehicle, the Passive Entry system is equipped
with an automatic door unlock feature which
will function if the ignition switch is in the
OFF position.
FOBIK-Safe only executes in vehicles with
passive entry. There are three situations that
trigger a FOBIK-Safe search in any passive
entry vehicle:
• A lock request is made by a valid Passive
Entry key fob while a door is open.
• A lock request is made by the Passive Entry door handle while a door is open.
• A lock request is made by the door panel switch while the door is open.
When any of these situations occur, after all
open doors are shut, the FOBIK-Safe search
will be executed. If it finds a Passive Entry
key fob inside the car, the car will unlock and
alert the customer. NOTE:
The vehicle will only unlock the doors when a
valid Passive Entry key fob is detected inside
the vehicle. The vehicle will not unlock the
doors when any of the following conditions
are true:
• The doors are manually locked using the
door lock knobs.
• Three attempts are made to lock the doors using the door panel switch and then close
the doors.
• There is a valid Passive Entry key fob outside the vehicle within 5 ft. (1.5 m) of
a Passive Entry door handle.
To Lock The Vehicle’s Doors And Liftgate
With one of the vehicle’s Passive Entry key
fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver or
passenger front door handles, pushing the
passive entry lock button will lock the ve-
hicle.
DO NOT grab the door handle, when pushing
the door handle lock button. This could un-
lock the door(s).
21

NOTE:
• After pushing the door handle button, youmust wait two seconds before you can lock
or unlock the doors, using either Passive
Entry door handle. This is done to allow
you to check if the vehicle is locked by
pulling the door handle without the ve-
hicle reacting and unlocking.
• If Passive Entry is disabled using Uconnect System, the key protection de-
scribed in "Preventing Inadvertent Lock-
ing of Passive Entry Key Fob in Vehicle"
remains active/functional.
• The Passive Entry system will not operate if the key fob battery is dead.
The vehicle doors can also be locked by using
the lock button located on the vehicle’s inte-
rior door panel. To Unlock/Enter The Liftgate
The liftgate passive entry unlock feature is
built into the electronic liftgate release. With
a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the liftgate, push the electronic
liftgate release to open with one fluid motion.
