WARNING!
•For personal security and safety in the event of a
collision, lock the vehicle doors before you drive as
well as when you park and leave the vehicle.
•When leaving the vehicle, always remove the Key
Fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle. Unsu-
pervised use of vehicle equipment may cause se-
vere personal injuries or 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 shift lever.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
•Do not leave the Key Fob in or near the vehicle, or
in a location accessible to children, and do not
leave the ignition of a vehicle equipped with
Keyless Enter-N-Go™ in the RUN mode. A child
could operate power windows, other controls, or
move the vehicle.
Power Door Locks
A power door lock switch is located on each of the front
door trim panels. This switch is used to lock or unlock the
doors and liftgate.

The doors can also be locked and unlocked with the
Keyless Enter-N-Go™ (Passive Entry) system if
equipped. For further information, refer to “Keyless
Enter-N-Go™” in “Getting To Know Your Vehicle.”
If you push the power door lock switch while the ignition
is in the MAR/RUN position, and any front door is open,
the power locks will not operate. This prevents you from
accidentally locking the key in the vehicle. Placing the
ignition in the STOP/OFF position or closing the door
will allow the locks to operate. If a door is open, and the
ignition is in the MAR/RUN position, a chime will sound
as a reminder to remove the key.
NOTE:If all of the doors are closed properly, the door
locks will lock automatically when the vehicle’s speed
exceeds 12 mph (20 km/h). For further information, refer
to “Uconnect® SETTINGS” in “Multimedia.”
Keyless Enter-N-Go™
The Passive Entry system is an enhancement to the
vehicle’s Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system and a
feature of Keyless Enter-N-Go™. This feature allows you
to lock and unlock the vehicle’s door(s) without having to
push the RKE transmitter LOCK or UNLOCK buttons.

raining on the Passive Entry door handle, the unlock
sensitivity can be affected, resulting in a slower re-
sponse time.
•If the vehicle is unlocked by the Passive Entry Door
Handle, and no door goes ajar within 60 seconds, the

will arm.

The window controls will operate only when the ignition

NOTE:For vehicles equipped with Uconnect®, the
power window switches will remain active for up to
three minutes after the ignition is cycled to the STOP/
OFF position. Opening either front door will cancel this
feature. Refer to “Uconnect® Settings” in “Multimedia”
for further information.

NOTE:The Front Defrost Control (MAX-DEF) function
remains on for approximately three minutes from when
the engine coolant reaches the appropriate temperature.
When the function is activated, the AUTO button LED
turns off. With the function activated, the only possible
manual adjustments are adjusting the fan speed and
turning the heated rear window off.
When the Recirculation Control, Rear Defrost Control , or
AUTO buttons are pushed, the Climate Control system
will deactivate the Front Defrost (MAX-DEF) function.
Selecting the footwell/windshield or only windshield
distribution activates the Climate Control system com-
pressor (LED on A/C button on) and the air recirculation
is set to#outside air#intake (LED on the recirculation
button off).
This logic guarantees optimum visibility at the windows.
It is, however, always possible to manage air recirculation
and the Climate Control system compressor manually.
Rear Window Defrosting
Push and release the rear window defrost button to turn
the function on/off.
Activation of this function is indicated by the rear defrost
indicator light on the instrument panel turning on. The
function is automatically deactivated after 20 minutes.
If equipped, push the rear defrost button to activate the
defrosting of door mirrors and heated rear window.
CAUTION!
To avoid causing damage to the rear window de-
froster heating filaments do not affix stickers or other
objects to the inside of the rear glass.
