Power Door Locks; Keyless Enter-N-Go - Passive Entry - Chrysler 300 2017 Owner's Manual

If the door lock knob is down when you shut the
door, the door will lock. Therefore, make sure
the key fob is not inside the vehicle before
closing the door.
WARNING!
• For personal security and safety in the
event of a collision, lock the vehicle doors
before you drive as well as when you park
and leave the vehicle.
• When exiting the vehicle, always make
sure the keyless ignition node is in the OFF
mode, remove the key fob from the vehicle
and lock your vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allow-
ing children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child
or others could be seriously or fatally in-
jured. Children should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the
gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil-
dren, and do not leave the ignition of a
vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go
in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or
move the vehicle.

Power Door Locks

A power door lock switch is on each front door
trim panel. Use this switch to lock or unlock the
doors.
Power Door Lock Switch
The doors can also be locked and unlocked with
the Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry sys-
tem. Refer to "Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive
Entry" in this section for further information.
If you push the power door lock switch while the
ignition is in the ACC or ON/RUN position, and
any front door is open, the power locks will not
operate. This prevents you from accidentally
locking the key fob in the vehicle. Placing the
ignition in the OFF position or closing the door
will allow the locks to operate. If the driver door
is open, and the ignition is in the ACC or
ON/RUN position, a chime will sound as a
reminder to remove the key fob.
Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry
The Passive Entry system is an enhancement to
the vehicle's Remote Keyless Entry system and
a feature of Keyless Enter-N-Go. This feature
allows you to lock and unlock the vehicle's
door(s) without having to push the key fob lock
or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
• Passive Entry may be programmed on or off.
Refer to "Uconnect Settings" in "Multimedia"
for further information.
• 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 arm the security alarm
(if equipped).
• 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 pre-
vent the passive entry handle from locking/
unlocking the vehicle.
