To Disarm The System
The vehicle security alarm can be disarmed
using any of the following methods:
Push the unlock button on the key fob.
Grasp the Passive Entry Unlock Door
Handle. Refer to "Keyless Enter-N-Go" in
“Doors” in this chapter for further infor-
mation.
Cycle the vehicle ignition system out of
the OFF position by pushing the Keyless
Enter-N-Go START/STOP ignition button
(requires at least one valid key fob in the
vehicle).
NOTE:
The driver's door key cylinder and the lift -
gate button on the key fob cannot arm or
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
The vehicle security alarm remains armed
during power liftgate entry. Pushing the
liftgate button will not disarm the vehicle
security alarm. If someone enters the
vehicle through the liftgate and opens any
door the alarm will sound.
When the vehicle security alarm is armed,
the interior power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.
The ultrasonic intrusion sensor (motion
detector) actively monitors your vehicle
every time you arm the security system. If
you prefer, you can turn off the ultrasonic
intrusion sensor when arming the security
system. To do so, push the lock button on
the key fob three times within 15 seconds
of arming the system (while the vehicle
security light is flashing rapidly).
The vehicle security alarm is designed to
protect your vehicle; however, you can avoid
conditions where the system may give you a
nuisance alarm. Conditions include any
person, or pet, left inside the vehicle or
hanging items that may sway (e.g. from rear
view mirrors, visors, etc). Windows and roof
panels should be closed to prevent wind,
leaves, and other debris from blowing into
the vehicle. Items left in the vehicle that may
shift over a period of time (e.g. plastic bags,
clothes, or groceries), could result in a
nuisance alarm. Additionally, extreme environmental condi
-
tions (wind, rain, hail, thunder, etc.), or
extreme noise (audio systems, traffic condi -
tions, trains, etc.), or direct impacts to the
vehicle may result in a nuisance alarming
condition.
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
security alarm will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash, the horn will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
Security System Manual Override
The system will not arm if you lock the doors
using the manual door lock.

DOORS
Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry (If
Equipped)
The Passive Entry system is a feature that
allows you to lock and unlock the vehicle’s
door(s) and swing gate without having to
push the key fob lock or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
Passive Entry may be programmed on/off.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multi-
media” in the Owner’s Manual for further
information.
The key fob may not be detected by the
vehicle Passive Entry system if it is
located next to a mobile phone, laptop, or
other electronic device; these devices may
interfere with the key fob’s wireless signal
and prevent the Passive Entry system from
locking/unlocking the vehicle.
Passive Entry Unlock initiates illuminated
approach (Low Beams, License Plate
Lamp, Position Lamps) for whichever time
duration is set between 0, 30 (default), 60
or 90 seconds. Passive Entry Unlock also
initiates two flashes of the turn signal
lamps.
If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it has
been raining/snowing on the Passive Entry
door handle, the unlock sensitivity can be
affected, resulting in a slower response
time.
If the vehicle is unlocked by Passive Entry
and no door is opened within 60 seconds,
the vehicle will re-lock and if equipped
will arm the security alarm.
To Unlock From The Driver Side
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the driver's door handle, grab the
front driver door handle to unlock the driver's
door automatically. Grab The Door Handle To Unlock

NOTE:
If “1st Press Of Key Fob Unlock” is
programmed all doors will unlock when you

select between “Unlock Driver Door 1st Press”
and “Unlock All Doors 1st Press,” refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” in the
Owner’s Manual for further information.

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

NOTE:
All doors will unlock when the front
passenger door handle is grabbed regardless
of the driver’s door unlock preference setting
(“Unlock 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 only if the igni-
tion 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. If Passive Entry is
disabled using Uconnect System, the key
protection described in "Preventing Inadver
-
tent Locking of Passive Entry Key Fob in
Vehicle" remains active/functional.
NOTE:
The vehicle will only unlock the doors during
a FOBIK-Safe operation 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:
A second valid Passive Entry key fob is
detected outside of the vehicle (within 5ft
of a Passive Entry door handle).
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.
To Lock The Vehicle’s Doors And Swing Gate
With one of the vehicle’s Passive Entry key
fobs within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver or
passenger front door handles, pushing the
Passive Entry lock button will lock the
vehicle doors and the swing gate. Push The Door Handle Button To Lock
NOTE:
DO NOT grab the door handle, when pushing
the door handle lock button. This could
unlock the door(s).
DO NOT Grab The Door Handle When Locking
The vehicle doors can also be locked by
using the lock button located on the
vehicle’s interior door panel.

(1.5 m) of the Swing Gate handle, grab the
Swing Gate handle to unlock the Swing Gate
automatically, and pull the Swing Gate to
open.
NOTE:
If “Unlock All Doors 1st Press” is
programmed all doors and the swing gate will
unlock when you grab hold of the swing gate
handle. To select between “Unlock Driver

Press,” refer to “Uconnect Settings” in
“Multimedia” in the Owner’s Manual for
further information.Swing Gate Passive Entry Lock Button To Lock The Swing Gate
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the Swing Gate handle, pushing
the Passive Entry lock button will lock the
vehicle doors and the swing gate.
NOTE:
Always take the key with you once a door or
the tailgate is locked to prevent locking the
key fob inside of the vehicle. If the key has
been locked inside of the vehicle, it can be
recovered using the second provided key fob.
NOTE:
After pushing the door handle button, you
must wait two seconds before you can lock
or unlock the doors, using any Passive
Entry door handle. This is done to allow
you to check if the vehicle is locked by
pulling the door handle without the
vehicle reacting and unlocking.
If Passive Entry is disabled using the
Uconnect system, the key protection
described in "Preventing Inadvertent
Locking of Passive Entry Key Fob in
Vehicle" remains active/functional.
The Passive Entry system will not operate
if the key fob battery is depleted.
Child-Protection Door Lock System —
Rear Doors
To provide a safer environment for small chil

dren riding in the rear seats, the rear doors
are equipped with a Child-Protection Door

the doors from inside the vehicle. Before
getting out of the vehicle, be sure to check
that there is no one left inside.
