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
"Keyless Enter-N-Go™" in "Things
To Know Before Starting Your Ve-
hicle" for further information).
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 positionsare LOCK/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 bat-
tery. 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
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.

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® sys-
tem, the power window switches,
radio, power sunroof (for versions/
markets, where provided), and
power outlets will remain activefor 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® Settings” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel”
for further information.
WARNING!
When leaving the vehicle, always
remove the Key Fob from the ve-
hicle 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 fa-
tally 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 ornear 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 ACC or ON/RUN
mode. A child could operate
power windows, other controls, 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 leav-
ing 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
that there is a problem with the elec-
tronics. This condition will result in
the engine being shut off after two
seconds.If the Vehicle Security Light turns on
during normal vehicle operation (ve-
hicle running for longer than 10 sec-
onds), 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 been pro-
grammed to the vehicle electronics.
REPLACEMENT KEYS
NOTE: Only Key Fobs that are
programmed to the vehicle elec-
tronics 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.
CAUTION!
Always remove the Key Fobs
from the vehicle and lock all
doors when leaving the vehicle
unattended.
(Continued)
CAUTION!(Continued)
For vehicles equipped with Key-less Enter-N-Go™, always re-
member to place the ignition in
the OFF position.
Duplication of Key Fobs may be per-
formed at an authorized dealer, this
procedure consists of programming a
blank Key Fob to the vehicle electron-
ics. A blank Key Fob is one that has
never been programmed.
NOTE: When having the Sentry
Key® Immobilizer System ser-
viced, bring all vehicle Key Fobs
with you to the authorized dealer.
CUSTOMER KEY
PROGRAMMING
Programming Key Fobs or RKE
transmitters may be performed at an
authorized dealer.

ALARM
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors
the vehicle doors, hood and trunk for
unauthorized entry and the Keyless
Enter-N-Go™ Start/Stop button for
unauthorized operation. While the
Vehicle Security Alarm is armed, inte-
rior switches for door locks and deck-
lid release are disabled. If something triggers the alarm, the Vehicle Secu-
rity Alarm will provide the following
audible and visible signals: the horn
will pulse, the park lamps and/or turn
signals will flash, and the Vehicle Se-
curity Light in the instrument 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.
