If passive locking is enabled, the
doors may lock with the RKE
transmitter inside the vehicle. Do
not leave the RKE transmitter in an
unattended vehicle.
If equipped with Keyless Access,
this feature will lock the vehicle

least one RKE transmitter has been
removed from the interior or none
remain in the interior.
