Power Side Steps — If Equipped
The Power Side Steps will extend a step for easier entry and
exit of the vehicle.
When configured for “Auto” mode, the Power Side Steps
will deploy when any of the doors are opened, or when the
deploy setting is activated through the touchscreen. When
configured for “Store” mode, the steps will stay in their posi-
tion but can also be deployed manually through the radio.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 5 mph (8 km/h), or if the retract
setting is selected in the touchscreen, the steps will retract.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for additional
information.
Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry
The Passive Entry system is an enhancement to the vehicle’s
Remote Keyless Entry system and a feature of Keyless
Enter-N-Go. This feature allows you to lock and unlock the
vehicle’s door(s) without having to push the key fob lock or
unlock buttons. NOTE:
• Passive Entry may be programmed on/off. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further informa -
tion.
• 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.
• The vehicles security alarm can be armed/disarmed by pushing the passive entry key fob lock/unlock buttons (if
equipped).
• The key fob may not be able to 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 block
the key fob's wireless signal and prevent the passive entry
handle from locking/unlocking the vehicle.
