to the vehicle's key fob. This feature allows you
to lock and unlock the vehicle's door(s) and
liftgate without having to push the key fob lock
or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
Passive Entry may be programmed on/off

through the radio screen. Refer to the Infor-
mation and Entertainment System Owner's
Manual Supplement for Passive Entry
settings.
The key fob may not be able to 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
block the key fob's wireless signal and
prevent the Passive Entry system from
locking/unlocking the vehicle.
If wearing gloves, 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 Vehicle Security system.
To Unlock From The Driver Or Passenger Side
With a valid Passive Entry key fob close to the
door handle, grab the handle to unlock the
vehicle. Grabbing the driver's door handle will
unlock the driver door automatically. Grabbing
the passenger door handle will unlock all
doors and the liftgate automatically.
