Power Door Locks — If Equipped
The power door lock switches are on each front door trim
panel. Use these switches to lock or unlock the doors.
NOTE:
The key fob may not be able to be detected by the vehicle
Keyless Enter-N-Go 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 Keyless
Enter-N-Go system from starting the vehicle. Power Door Lock Switches
While in the ACC or ON/RUN positions, if you push the
power door lock switch, and any front door is open, the
power locks will not operate. This prevents you from acci -
dentally locking your key fob in the vehicle. Removing the
key fob or closing the door will allow the locks to operate. A
chime will sound if the key fob is in the ignition switch and
a door is open, as a reminder to remove the key fob.• Allowing children to be in a vehicle 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 gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near 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. WARNING! (Continued)

Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry Key Fob
In Vehicle:
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally locking a
Passive Entry key fob inside your vehicle, the Passive Entry
system is equipped with an automatic door unlock feature
which will function if the ignition switch is in the OFF posi -
tion.
If one of the vehicle doors is open and the door panel switch
is used to lock the vehicle, once all open doors have been
closed the vehicle checks the inside and outside of the vehicle
for any valid Passive Entry key fobs. If one of the vehicle's
Passive Entry key fobs is detected inside the vehicle, and no
other valid Passive Entry key fobs are detected outside the vehicle, the Passive Entry System automatically unlocks all
vehicle doors and chirps the horn three times (on the third
attempt ALL doors will lock and the Passive Entry key fob
can be locked in the vehicle).
To Lock The Vehicle’s Doors:
With one of the vehicle’s Passive Entry key fobs within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the driver or passenger front door handles, push
the door handle lock button to lock all doors.

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

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.
