22 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry
Key Fob In Vehicle:
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally
lo
cking 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 is OFF.
If one of the vehicle doors is open and the
ve
hicle is locked with a door panel switch, key
fob button or door handle button, 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 Enter The Liftgate:
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft
(
1
.5 m) of the liftgate, push the button
un
derneath the left side of the accent bar,
which is located on the liftgate below the glass,
to lock or unlock the vehicle.

To Lock The Vehicle’s Doors:
With one of the vehicle’s Passive Entry key fobs
wi
thin 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver or passenger
fr
ont door handle, push the door handle lock
button to lock all four doors and liftgate.
Push The Door Handle Button To Lock
Do NOT grab the door handle, when pushing the
d
o
or handle button. This could unlock the door(s).
Do NOT Grab The Door Handle When Locking
NOTE:
After pushing the door handle 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.
If Passive Entry is disabled using Uconnect
System, the key protection described in
"Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry
Key Fob In Vehicle" remains active/functional.
The Passive Entry system will not operate if
the key fob battery is depleted.
