Keyless enter-n-go - passive entry

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) without having to push the key fob lock or unlock buttons.

NOTE:

•  Passive Entry may be programmed ON/OFF. Refer to "Uconnect Settings" in "Understanding Your Instrument Panel" for further information.
• If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it has been raining 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 re-lock and if equipped will arm the security alarm.

To Unlock From The Driver's Side:

With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver's door handle, grab the driver's front door handle to unlock the driver's door automatically. The interior door panel lock knob will raise when the door is unlocked.

Grab The Door Handle To Unlock

NOTE: If "Unlock All Doors 1st Press" is programmed, all doors will unlock when you grab hold of the driver's front door handle. To select between "Unlock Driver Door 1st Press" and "Unlock All Doors 1st Press", refer to "Uconnect Settings" in "Understanding Your Instrument Panel" for further information.

To Unlock From The Passenger Side:

With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the passenger door handle, grab the front passenger door handle to unlock all four doors automatically. The interior door panel lock knob will raise when the door is unlocked.

NOTE: All doors will unlock when the front passenger door handle is grabbed regardless of the driver's door unlock preference setting ("Unlock Driver Door 1st Press" or "Unlock All Doors 1st Press").

Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry Key Fob In Vehicle

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.

If one of the vehicle doors is open, and the door panel switch is used to lock the vehicle, once all open doors have been closed, the vehicle checks the inside and outside of the vehicle for any valid Passive Entry key fob.

If one of the vehicle's Passive Entry key fob is detected inside the vehicle, and no other valid Passive Entry key fob are detected outside the vehicle, the Passive Entry System automatically unlocks all vehicle doors and chirps the horn three times (on the third attempt, ALL doors will lock, and the Passive Entry key fob can be locked in the vehicle).

To Unlock/Enter The Liftgate

The liftgate passive entry unlock feature is built into the electronic liftgate handle. With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 3 ft (1.0 m) of the liftgate, pull the electronic liftgate handle for a power open on vehicles equipped with Power Liftgate. Pull the electronic liftgate handle and lift for Manual Liftgate vehicles.

NOTE: If the vehicle is unlocked, the liftgate will open with the handle and no key fob is required.

To Lock The Vehicle's Doors

With one of the vehicle's Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver or passenger front door handle, push the door handle LOCK button to lock all four doors and liftgate.

NOTE: This feature will cause the horn to chirp when the doors are locked with the door handle LOCK button.

Push The Door Handle Button To Lock

NOTE: Do NOT grab the door handle, when pushing the door handle button. This could unlock the door(s).

Do NOT Grab The Door Handle When Locking

NOTE:

•  After pushing the door handle button, you must wait two seconds before you can lock or unlock the doors, using either Passive Entry door handle or door handle button. This is done to allow you to check if the vehicle is locked by pulling the door handle, without the vehicle reacting and unlocking.
•  The Passive Entry system will not operate if the key fob battery is dead.
•  Closeness to mobile devices can have an effect on the passive entry system.

The vehicle doors can also be locked by using the key fob lock button or the lock button located on the vehicle's interior door panel.
