EYLESS NTER N O
The Passive Entry system is an enhancement to the
vehicle's key fob and a feature of Keyless Enter 'n Go™
— Passive Entry. This feature allows you to lock and
unlock the vehicle's door(s) without having to push the
key fob lock or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
●
Passive Entry may be programmed on or off within
ð
Uconnect Settings page 203.
●
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 system from locking/
unlocking the vehicle.
●
Passive Entry Unlock initiates illuminated approach
(low beams, license plate lamp, position lamps) for
whichever duration is set between 0, 30, 60 or
90 seconds. Passive Entry Unlock also initiates two
flashes of the turn signals.
●
If wearing gloves, if it has been raining/snowing,
or if there is salt/dirt covering the Passive Entry
door handle, the unlock and lock sensitivity can be
affected, resulting in a slower response time.
●
The doors may unlock and lock when water is
sprayed on the Passive Entry door handles, if the key
fob is located outside of the vehicle within 5 ft (1.5
m) of the handle.
●
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.

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
ð
system
●
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 in the OFF
position.
page 203.
There are five 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 the Vehicle Security system is in pre-arm or
armed status and the tailgate transitions from open
to closed.
●
When the tailgate transitions from opened to closed
and Remote Start is active.
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 vehicle, the
vehicle 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 vehicle.
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 the doors are closed.
●
There is a valid Passive Entry key fob outside the
vehicle within 5 ft (1.5 m) of a Passive Entry door
handle.
