The Passive Entry system is an enhancement to
the vehicle's Remote Keyless Entry system and a
feature of Keyless Enter 'n Go™ — Passive Entry.
This feature allows you to lock and unlock the
vehicle's door(s) and fuel door without having to
push the key fob lock or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
Passive Entry may be programmed on/off within

the Uconnect system Ú page 150.
If wearing gloves, or if it has been raining/

snowing on the Passive Entry door handle, the
unlock sensitivity can be affected, resulting in a
slower response time.
If the vehicle is unlocked by Passive Entry and

no door is opened within 60 seconds, the
vehicle will relock and if equipped will arm the
Vehicle Security system.
The key fob may not be detected by the vehicle

Passive Entry system if it is located next to a
mobile phone, laptop or other electronic device;
these devices may block the key fob's wireless
signal and prevent the Passive Entry handle
from locking/unlocking the vehicle.
Passive Entry activates illuminated approach for

the time set by the customer within the
Uconnect system (0, 30, 60, or 90 seconds),
and flashes the turn signal lights.
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 liftgate 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 Ú page 150.
All doors will unlock when the front passenger

door handle is grabbed regardless of the
driver's door unlock preference setting.
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 if
the ignition is OFF.
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 detects a Passive Entry key fob
inside the car, the car will unlock and alert the
customer.
