Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry
Key Fob In Vehicle (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. There are three situations
that trigger a FOBIK-Safe search in any passive
entry 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 finds a Passive Entry key fob inside
the car, the car will unlock and alert the
customer. If Passive Entry is disabled using
Uconnect System, the key protection described in
"Preventing Inadvertent Locking of Passive Entry
Key Fob in Vehicle" 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 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 5ft
(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 close
the doors.
To Lock The Vehicle's Doors And Swing Gate
With one of the vehicle's Passive Entry key fob
within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver or passenger
front door handles, pushing the passive entry
lock button will lock the vehicle doors and the
swing gate.
