GENERAL INFORMATION ON
RADIO FREQUENCIES
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules and with Industry Canada
license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation
is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) This device must accept
any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired
operation.
WARNING: Changes or modifications
not expressively approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the
user's authority to operate the equipment.
The term "IC:" before the radio certification
number only signifies that Industry Canada
technical specifications were met.
The typical operating range for your
transmitter is approximately 33 ft (10 m).
Vehicles with the remote start feature will
have a greater range. One of the following could cause a decrease
in operating range:
•
Weather conditions.
• Nearby radio towers.
• Structures around the vehicle.
• Other vehicles parked next to your
vehicle.
The radio frequency used by your remote
control can also be used by other radio
transmitters, for example amateur radios,
medical equipment, wireless headphones,
wireless remote controls, cell phones, battery
chargers and alarm systems. If the
frequencies are jammed, you will not be able
to use your remote control. You can lock and
unlock the doors with the key.
Note: Make sure to lock your vehicle before
leaving it unattended.
Note: If you are in range, the remote control
will operate if you press any button
unintentionally.
Note: The remote control contains sensitive
electrical components. Exposure to moisture
or impact may cause permanent damage. Intelligent Access
(If Equipped)
The system uses a radio frequency signal to
communicate with your vehicle and authorize
your vehicle to unlock when one of the
following conditions are met:
• You activate the front exterior door
handle switch.
• You press the luggage compartment
button.
• You press a button on the transmitter.
If excessive radio frequency interference is
present in the area or if the transmitter
battery is low, you may need to mechanically
unlock your door. You can use the
mechanical key blade in your intelligent
access key to open the driver door in this
situation.
See Remote Control (page 67).

REMOTE CONTROL
Passive Key
The passive key operates the power locks
and the remote start system. The passive
key must be in your vehicle to use the push
button start. Note:
You may not be able to shift out of
park (P) unless the passive key is inside your
vehicle.
Note: If the passive key remains motionless
for 40 or more seconds, you need to move
the passive key for passive entry to operate.
If the passive key remains motionless for 8
or more hours, you need to move the passive
key for push button start to operate. Note:
Your vehicle keys come with a
security label that provides important key
cut information. Keep the label in a safe
place for future reference.
Removable Key Blade
The passive key also contains a removable
key blade you can use to unlock your
vehicle. Push the release button and pull the key
blade out.

Replacing the Battery
WARNING: Keep batteries away from
children to prevent ingestion. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death. If ingested,
immediately seek medical attention. WARNING: If the battery
compartment does not securely close, stop
using the remote control and replace it as
soon as possible. In the meantime, keep
the remote control away from children.
Failure to follow this instruction could result
in personal injury or death.
A message appears in the information

3.
Insert a screwdriver in the position shown
and carefully remove the battery.
4. Insert a new battery with the + facing
upward.
5. Reinstall the battery cover onto the remote control and install the key blade.
Note: Refer to local regulations before you
dispose of the remote control batteries. Note:

battery terminals or on the back surface of
the circuit board.
Note: Replacing the remote control battery
does not erase the programmed key from
your vehicle. The remote control operates
as normal.
Car Finder Press the button twice within three
seconds. A tone sounds and the

again or switch the ignition on to
turn it off.
Note: The panic alarm only operates when
the ignition is off. Remote Start WARNING:
Do not start the engine
in a closed garage or in other enclosed
areas. Exhaust fumes are toxic. Always
open the garage door before you start the
engine. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in personal injury or death. The remote start button is on the
remote control.
This feature allows you to start your vehicle
from the outside. The remote control has an
extended operating range.
You can configure the automatic climate
control to operate when you remote start
your vehicle.
See Climate Control (page
168).
Many states and provinces restrict the use
of remote start. Check your local and state
or provincial laws for specific requirements
regarding remote start systems.

depending on the setting.
Extending the Engine Running Time
To extend the engine running time duration
of your vehicle during remote start, repeat
steps 1 and 2 while the engine is running. If
the duration is set to 15 minutes, the duration
extends by another 15 minutes. For example,
if your vehicle had been running from the
first remote start for 5 minutes, your vehicle
continues to run now for a total of 30
minutes. You can extend the engine running
time duration to a maximum of 30 minutes.
