A lock request is made by the door panel

switch while the door is ajar.
When any of these situations occur, after all ajar
doors are shut, the FOBIK-Safe search will be
executed. If it finds a Passive Entry key fob
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
inside the car, and it does not find any Passive
Entry key fobs outside the car, then the car will
unlock and alert the customer.
NOTE:

valid Passive Entry key fob is detected inside
the vehicle, and no valid Passive Entry key fob is
detected outside the vehicle. The vehicle will
not unlock the doors when any of the following
conditions are met:
The doors are manually locked using the door

lock knobs.

the vehicle and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of either
