Do NOT Grab The Door Handle When Locking
NOTE:
• After pushing the door handle lock button, you must wait two seconds before you can lock or unlock the doors, using
either 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.
• The Passive Entry system depends on a key fob that is not fully discharged of its coin battery capacity.
• The LED light on the key fob will not blink if the key fob battery is low or fully depleted, but a low key fob battery
condition will still support the Passive Entry system func -tionality. When the key fob battery is low, the instrument
cluster will display a message indicating that the key fob
battery is low. Refer to “Keys” in “Getting To Know Your
Vehicle” for further information.
The vehicle doors can also be locked by using the key fob
lock button or the lock button located on the vehicle’s inte -
rior door panel.
