Note: If any door or the luggage compartment is open, or if the hood is
open on vehicles with an anti-theft alarm or remote start, the horn
sounds twice and the lamps will not flash.
Activating intelligent access
The intelligent access key must be within 3 feet (1 meter) of your
vehicle.
At the front doors
Pull a front exterior door handle. The door will unlock and can be
opened.
Note: Keep the door handle surface clean to avoid issues with operation.
At the liftgate
Press the button hidden near the license plate.
Smart Unlocks
The smart unlock feature is intended to prevent you from unintentionally
locking your intelligent access key inside your vehicle's passenger
compartment or rear cargo area.
When you lock your vehicle using the driver or passenger power door
lock control (with the door open, transmission is in P and ignition off),
after you close the door the vehicle will search for an intelligent access
key in the passenger compartment. If an intelligent access key is found
inside your vehicle, all of the doors will immediately unlock and the horn
will chirp, indicating that the intelligent access key is inside.
In order to override the smart unlock feature and intentionally lock the
intelligent access key inside your vehicle, you can lock your vehicle after
all doors are closed by using the keyless entry keypad, pressing the lock
button on another intelligent access key or touching the locking area on
the handle with another intelligent access key in your hand. Refer to
SecuriCode™ Keyless Entry Keypad in this chapter for more
information on keyless entry keypad operation.
