Information
• The door handle button or touch sensor
only operates when the smart key is
within 1 m (40 in.) from the outside door
handle.
• If you lock the doors using the door
handle button or touch sensor, the
doors are not locked under the
following circumstances:
- The Smart Key is in the vehicle.
- The Engine Start/Stop button is in the
ACC or ON position.
- Any door is open (except for the
tailgate).
If this occurs, a chime sounds for about
3 seconds. Check the vehicle before
attempting to lock the vehicle again.
Information
Before you leave your vehicle with the
Smart Key, verify that your vehicle is
locked. When using the touch sensor on
the front door handle, listen to hear that
the lock has actuated, and then pull the
handle within 3 seconds to confirm the
doors are locked.
(If it has been longer than 3 seconds,
verify the doors are locked by pressing
the lock button on the Smart Key. You can
hear a single beep.)
WARNING
Do not leave the Smart Key in your vehicle
with children that are unattended or
unsupervised.
Children could unintentionally move the
Engine Start/Stop button or could
operate the power windows or other
vehicle controls or even cause the vehicle
to move. This may result in serious injury
or death.
