SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents
unauthorized vehicle operation by disabling the
engine. The system does not need to be armed
or activated. Operation is automatic, regardless
of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked.
The system uses a key fob and a Keyless Push
Button Ignition, and a RF receiver to prevent
unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore, only
key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle can
be used to start and operate the vehicle. If an
invalid key fob is used to attempt to start and
operate the vehicle, the system will not allow
the engine to crank. If an invalid key fob is used
to start the engine, the system will shut the
engine off in two seconds.
After placing the ignition to the ON/RUN mode,
the vehicle security light will turn on for three
seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains on
after the bulb check, it indicates that there is a
problem with the electronics. In addition, if the
light begins to flash after the bulb check, it
indicates that someone used an invalid key fob
to start the engine. Either of these conditions
will result in the engine being shut off after two
seconds.
If the vehicle security light turns on during
normal vehicle operation (vehicle running for
longer than 10 seconds), it indicates that there
is a fault in the electronics. Should this occur ,
have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by
an authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not
compatible with some aftermarket remote
starting systems. Use of these systems may
result in vehicle starting problems and loss of
security protection.
All of the key fobs provided with your new
vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle
electronics.
Customer Key Programming
Programming key fobs may be performed at an
authorized dealer.
Replacement Keys
NOTE:
Only key fobs that are programmed to the ve-
hicle electronics can be used to start and oper-
ate the vehicle. Once a key fob is programmed
to a vehicle, it cannot be programmed to any
other vehicle.
CAUTION!
• Always remove the key fobs from the ve-
hicle and lock all doors when leaving the
vehicle unattended.
• For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter -
N-Go — Ignition, always remember to
place the ignition in the OFF position.
NOTE:
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an
authorized dealer. This procedure consists of
programming a blank key fob to the vehicle
electronics. A blank key fob is one that has
never been programmed.
When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer Sys-
tem serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to
an authorized dealer.
