Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry
Key Fob In Vehicle (FOBIK-Safe)
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally lock-
ing a passive entry key fob inside your vehicle, the
passive entry system is equipped with an auto-
matic door unlock feature which will function if
the ignition switch is in the OFF position.
FOBIK-Safe only executes in vehicles with passive
entry. 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.
NOTE:
The vehicle will only unlock the doors when a valid
passive entry key fob is detected inside the ve-
hicle. The vehicle will not unlock the doors when
any of the following conditions are true:
• 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.
