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 RKE transmitters. If one
of the vehicle’s Passive Entry RKE transmitters is detected
inside the vehicle, and no other valid Passive Entry RKE
transmitters 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 RKE transmitter 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 RKE
transmitter within 3 ft (1.0 m) of the liftgate, push the
electronic liftgate handle for a power open on vehicles
equipped with Power Liftgate. Push the electronic lift-
gate handle and lift for Manual Liftgate vehicles.
NOTE: If the vehicle is unlocked, the liftgate will open
with the handle and no RKE Transmitter is required.
