3. Remove the back cover to access and replace
the battery. When replacing the battery, match
the (+) sign on the battery to the (+) sign on the
inside of the battery clip, located on the back
cover. Avoid touching the new battery with your
fingers. Skin oils may cause battery deterio -
ration. If you touch a battery, clean it with
r ubbi n

g alcohol.
4. To assemble the key fob case, snap the two halve
s together.
Programming And Requesting Additional
Key Fobs
Programming the key fob may be performed by an
authorized dealer.
NOTE:
Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it
cannot be repurposed and reprogrammed to
another vehicle.
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
programmed to any other vehicle.
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an
author i

zed dealer. This procedure consists of
programming a blank key fob to the vehicle
electronics. A blank key fob is one that has never
been programmed.
NOTE:
When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer system
serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an
authorized dealer.
Keys must be ordered to the correct key cut to
match the vehicle locks.
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 a key fob, keyless push button
ignit i

on and a Radio Frequency (RF) receiver 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 seconds if an
incorrect key fob is used to start the engine.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON/RUN
positi on

, 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 start the
engine. Either of these conditions will result in the
engine being shut off after two seconds.
WARNING!
The integrated key fob contains a coin cell
battery. Do not ingest the battery; there is a
chemical burn hazard. If the coin cell battery is
swallowed, it can cause severe internal burns
in just two hours and can lead to death.
If you think a battery may have been swal-
lowed or placed inside any part of the body,
seek i
mmediate medical attention.
Keep new and used batteries away from chil -
dren. If the battery compartment does not
close s
ecurely, stop using the product and
keep it away from children.
WARNING!
Always remove the key fobs from the vehicle
and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle
unattended.
For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter ‘n
Go™ Ignition, always remember to place the
ignition in the OFF position.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 17
(Continued)
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.
All of the key fobs provided with your new vehicle
have b

een programmed to the vehicle electronics.
NOTE:
A key fob that has not been programmed is also
consid e
red an invalid key Ú page 349.
IGNITION SWITCH
KEYLESS ENTER ‘N GO™ IGNITION
This feature allows the driver to operate the
ignition with the push of a button as long as the key
fob is in the passenger compartment.
The START/STOP ignition button has three
operat i

ng modes: OFF, ON, and RUN.
NOTE:
The vehicle will not start if the key fob is located
insid e
the cargo area and the liftgate is opened.

START/STOP Ignition Button

The push button ignition can be placed in the
follow i

ng positions:
OFF
The engine is stopped.
No electrical devices are available.
ON
The vehicle is not running.
Some electrical devices (central locking, alarm,
etc.) are still available. RUN
Driving mode.
All electrical devices are available (e.g. climate
controls, heated seats, etc.).
NOTE:
If the ignition state/mode does not change with the
push of
a button, the key fob may have a low or
depleted battery. In this situation, a back up
method can be used to operate the ignition switch.
Put the nose side (side opposite of the emergency
key) of the key fob against the START/STOP
ignition button and push to operate the ignition.

Starting The Ignition With Depleted Key Fob Battery
CAUTION!
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not
compatible with some aftermarket Remote Start
systems. Use of these systems may result in
vehicle starting problems and loss of security
protection.
WARNING!
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
key fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.

suppressed until vehicle speed is greater than
3 mph (5 km/h), or the wiper switch is moved
out of a
nd back into the Intermittent wipe posi -
tion.
Transmission In NEUTRAL Position — The Rain
Sensing system will not operate if the NEUTRAL
gear is selected at speeds of 3 mph (5 km/h) or
less u

nless the wiper switch is moved or the
gear selector is moved out of NEUTRAL.
Remote Start Mode Inhibit — On vehicles
equipped with the Remote Start system, Rain
