WARNING!
Push the Mechanical Key Release Button only
with the key fob facing away from your body,
especially your eyes and objects that may be
damaged, such as clothing.
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system.
The ignition system consists of a key fob with
Keyless Enter-N-Go and a START/STOP push
button ignition system. The Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) system consists of a key fob with a
mechanical key and Keyless Enter-N-Go feature
if equipped.
NOTE:
The key fob may not be detected by the vehicle
if it is located next to a mobile phone, laptop or
other electronic device; these devices may
block the key fob's wireless signal.
CAUTION!
The electrical components inside of the key fob
may be damaged if the key fob is subjected to
strong electrical shocks. In order to ensure
complete efficiency of the electronic devices
inside of the key fob, avoid exposing the key
fob to direct sunlight.
The key fob allows you to lock or unlock the
doors and swing gate from distances up to
approximately 66 ft (20 m). The key fob does
not need to be pointed at the vehicle to activate
the system.
NOTE:
With the ignition in ON/RUN position and with
the vehicle doors open, the lock button will be
disabled, and only the unlock button will be
enabled. All RKE commands will be disabled
once the vehicle begins moving at 2 mph
(4 km/h) or above.
Backup Mode Starting
In case the ignition switch does not change with
the push of a button, the key fob may have a low
or fully depleted battery. A low key fob battery
can be verified by referring to the instrument
cluster, which will display directions to follow.
NOTE:
A low key fob battery condition may be indicated
by a message in the instrument cluster display,
or by the LED light on the key fob. If the LED key
fob light no longer illuminates from key fob
button pushes, then the key fob battery requires
replacement.
