A WORD ABOUT YOUR
KEYS
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition
system. This system consists of a Key
Fob with Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter and a Keyless Ig-
nition Node (KIN).
Keyless Enter-N-Go Feature
This vehicle is equipped with the Key-
less Enter-N-Go feature, refer to
“Starting Procedure” in “Starting
And Operating” for further informa-
tion.
KEYLESS IGNITION NODE
(KIN)
This feature allows the driver to oper-
ate the ignition switch with the push
of a button, as long as the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter is in
the passenger compartment.
The Keyless Ignition Node (KIN) has
four operating positions, three of
which are labeled and will illuminate
when in position. The three positions
are OFF, ACC, and ON/RUN. The
fourth position is START, during start
RUN will illuminate.NOTE:
In case the ignition switch does not
change with the push of a button,
the RKE transmitter (Key Fob)
may have a low or dead battery. In
this situation a back up method
can be used to operate the ignition
switch. Put the nose side (side op-
posite of the emergency key) of the
Key Fob against the ENGINE
START/STOP button and push to
operate the ignition switch.
KEY FOB
The Key Fob also contains the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and
an emergency key, which stores in the
rear of the Key Fob.The emergency key allows for entry
into the vehicle should the battery in
the vehicle or the Key Fob go dead.
The emergency key is also for locking
the glove box. You can keep the emer-
gency key with you when valet park-
ing.
To remove the emergency key, slide
the mechanical latch on the back of
the Key Fob sideways with your
thumb and then pull the key out with
your other hand.
NOTE:
You can insert the double-sided
emergency key into the lock cylin-
ders with either side up.

IGNITION OR ACCESSORY
ON MESSAGE
Opening the driver's door when the
ignition is in ACC or ON (engine not
running), a chime will sound to re-
mind you to cycle the ignition to OFF.
In addition to the chime, the ignition
or accessory on message will display
in the cluster.
NOTE:
With the Uconnect Touch™ sys-
tem, the power window switches,
radio, power sunroof (for versions/
markets, where provided), and
power outlets will remain active
for up to 10 minutes after the igni-
tion is cycled to the OFF position.
Opening either front door will can-
cel this feature. The time for this
feature is programmable. Refer to
“Uconnect Touch™ Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
WARNING!
 When leaving the vehicle, alwaysremove the key fob and lock your
vehicle.
 Never leave children alone in a
vehicle, or with access to an un-
locked vehicle.
 Allowing children to be in a ve-
hicle 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.
 Do not leave the key fob in or near
the vehicle, and do not leave Key-
less Enter-N-Go in the ACC or
ON/RUN mode. A child could op-
erate power windows, other con-
trols, or move the vehicle.
 Do not leave children or animals
inside parked vehicles in hot
weather. Interior heat build-up
may cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked car is an invitation to
thieves. Always remove the Key Fob
from vehicle, cycle the ignition OFF
and lock all doors when leaving the
vehicle unattended.
SENTRY KEY®
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer System
prevents unauthorized vehicle opera-
tion by disabling the engine. The sys-
tem does not need to be armed or
activated. Operation is automatic, re-
gardless of whether the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
The system uses a Key Fob with Re-
mote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmit-
ter, a Keyless Ignition Node (KIN) and
a RF receiver to prevent unauthorized
vehicle operation. Therefore, only
Key Fobs that are programmed to the
vehicle can be used to start and oper-
ate the vehicle.
After placing the 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

VEHICLE SECURITY
ALARM (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors
the vehicle doors, hood and trunk for
unauthorized entry and the Keyless
Enter-N-Go Start/Stop button for un-
authorized operation. While the Ve-
hicle Security Alarm is armed, inte-
rior switches for door locks and
decklid release are disabled. If some-
thing triggers the alarm, the Vehicle
Security Alarm will provide the fol-
lowing audible and visible signals: the
horn will pulse, the park lamps
and/or turn signals will flash, and the
Vehicle Security Light in the instru-
ment cluster will flash.
REARMING OF THE
SYSTEM
If something triggers the alarm, and
no action is taken to disarm it, the
Vehicle Security Alarm will turn off
the horn after 29 seconds, and turn off
all of the visual signals after an addi-
tional 31 seconds, then the Vehicle
Security Alarm will rearm itself.TO ARM THE SYSTEM
Follow these steps to arm the Vehicle
Security Alarm:
1. Make sure the vehicle ignition sys-
tem is "OFF". (refer to "Starting Pro-
cedures" in "Starting And Operating"

formation).
 Press the LOCK button on the Re-
mote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmit-
ter.
3. If any doors are open, close them.
TO DISARM THE SYSTEM
The Vehicle Security Alarm can be
disarmed using any of the following
methods: Press the UNLOCK button on the
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter.
 Grasp the Passive Entry Unlock Door Handle (refer to "Keyless
Enter-N-Go" in "Things To Know

 Press the Keyless Enter-N-GoStart/Stop button (requires at
least one valid Key Fob in the
vehicle).
NOTE:
 The driver's door key cylinder and the trunk button on the RKE
transmitter cannot arm or dis-
arm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
 When the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed, the interior
power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.
The Vehicle Security Alarm is de-
signed to protect your vehicle; how-
ever, you can create conditions where
the system will give you a false alarm.
15

If one of the previously described
arming sequences has occurred, the
Vehicle Security Alarm will arm re-
gardless 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 discon-
nected, the Vehicle Security Alarm
will remain armed when the battery is
reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash, the horn will sound. If this oc-
curs, disarm the Vehicle Security
Alarm.

vided). Refer to “Mirrors” in “Under-standing The Features Of Your Ve-
hicle” for further information.
The lights will fade to off after ap-
proximately 30 seconds or they will
immediately fade to off once the igni-
tion is cycled to the ON/RUN position
from the OFF position.
NOTE:
 The front courtesy overhead
console and door courtesy lights
will turn on if the dimmer con-
trol is in the "Dome ON" position
(extreme top position).

transmitters may be performed at an
authorized dealer.
TRANSMITTER BATTERY
REPLACEMENT
The recommended replacement bat-
tery is one CR2032 battery.
NOTE:

Therefore, make sure the Key Fob is
not inside the vehicle before closing
the door.WARNING!
 For personal security and safetyin the event of an accident, 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 and lock your
vehicle.
 Never leave children alone in a
vehicle, or with access to an un-
locked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle
unattended is dangerous for a
number of reasons. A child or oth-
ers could be seriously or fatally in-
jured. Children should be warned
not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the shift lever. Do not leave the key fob in or near
the vehicle, and do not leave Key-
less Enter-N-Go in the ACC or
ON/RUN mode. A child could op-
erate power windows, other con-
trols, or move the vehicle. POWER DOOR LOCKS
A power door lock switch is on each
front door trim panel. Use this switch
to lock or unlock the doors.
The doors can also be locked and un-

information, refer to “Keyless Enter-
N-Go” in “Things To Know Before
Starting Your Vehicle”.
If you press the power door lock
switch while the ignition is in the ACC
or ON/RUN position, and any front
door is open, the power locks will not
operate. This prevents you from acci-
dentally locking the Key Fob in the
vehicle. Cycling the ignition to the
OFF position or closing the door will
allow the locks to operate. If a door is
open, and the ignition is in the ACC or ON/RUN position, a chime will sound
as a reminder to remove the Key Fob.
