• Cycle the vehicle ignition system out of the

OFF position.

NOTE:

• The driver's door key cylinder cannot arm or

disarm the vehicle security alarm.

• When the vehicle security alarm is armed,

the interior power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.

The vehicle security alarm is designed to
protect your vehicle. However, you can create
conditions where the system will give you a
false alarm. If one of the previously described
arming sequences has occurred, the vehicle
security alarm will arm regardless of whether
you are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in
the vehicle and open a door, the alarm will
sound. If this occurs, disarm the vehicle
security alarm.

If the vehicle security alarm is armed and the
battery becomes disconnected, the vehicle
security alarm will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the vehicle security alarm.

DOORS

CAUTION!

Careless handling and storage of the re-
movable door panels may damage the
seals, causing water to leak into the vehi-
cle’s interior.

Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry
(If Equipped)

The Passive Entry system is a feature that
allows you to lock and unlock the vehicle’s
door(s) and swing gate without having to push
the key fob lock or unlock buttons.

NOTE:

• Passive Entry may be programmed ON/

OFF; refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Mul-
timedia” in your Owner’s Manual for further
information.

• The key fob may not 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 inter-

fere with the key fob’s wireless signal and
prevent the passive entry system from
locking/unlocking the vehicle.

• Passive Entry Unlock initiates illuminated

approach (Low Beams, License Plate
Lamp, Position Lamps) for whichever time
duration is set between 0, 30 (default),
60 or 90 seconds. Passive Entry Unlock
also initiates two flashes of the turn signal
lamps.

• 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.

To Unlock From The Driver Side

With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the driver's door handle, grab the
front driver door handle to unlock the driver's
door automatically.
