interfere 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 duration is set (between 0, 30, 60, or 90
seconds). Passive Entry unlock also initiates two
flashes of the turn signal lights.
 If wearing gloves, if it has been raining/snowing, or
there is salt/dirt covering the Passive Entry door
handle, the unlock sensitivity can be affected, resulting
in a slower response time.
 The doors may unlock when water is sprayed on the
Passive Entry door handles, if the key fob is located
outside of the vehicle within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the handle.
 If the vehicle is unlocked by Passive Entry and no door
is opened within 60 seconds, the vehicle will relock.
To Unlock From The Driver Or Passenger Side
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of 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 swing gate automatically.
Grab The Door Handle To Unlock
NOTE:
Either the driver door only or all doors will unlock when you
grab hold of the front driver's door handle, depending on
the selected setting in the Uconnect system
Frequency Operated Button Integrated Key (FOBIK-Safe)
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally locking a
Passive Entry key fob inside your vehicle, the Passive Entry
system is equipped with an automatic door unlock feature
which will function only if the ignition switch is in the OFF
position.
FOBIK-Safe only executes in vehicles with a START/STOP
ignition button. There are three situations that trigger a
FOBIK-Safe search in any Passive Entry vehicle:
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
 A lock request is made by a valid Passive Entry key fob
while a door is open.
 A lock request is made by the Passive Entry door
handle while a door is open.
 A lock request is made by the door panel switch while
the door is open.
When any of these situations occur, after all open doors
are shut, the FOBIK-Safe search will be executed. If it
detects a Passive Entry key fob inside the vehicle, the
vehicle will unlock and alert the customer. If Passive Entry
is disabled using Uconnect system, the key fob protection
described in this section remains active/functional.
NOTE:
The vehicle will only unlock the doors during a FOBIK-Safe
operation when a valid Passive Entry key fob is detected

Ú
inside the vehicle. The vehicle will not unlock the doors
when any of the following conditions are true:
 A second valid Passive Entry key fob is detected
outside of the vehicle (within 5 ft (1.5 m) of a Passive
Entry door handle).
 The doors are manually locked using the door lock
knobs.
 Three attempts are made to lock the doors using the
door panel switch, and then the doors are closed.
