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.
There are three situations that trigger a FOBIK-Safe
search in any Passive Entry vehicle.
1. A lock request is made by a valid Passive Entry key
fob while a door is open.
2. A lock request is made by the Passive Entry door
handle while a door is open.
3. 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, and it
does not detect any Passive Entry key fobs outside the
car, the car will unlock and alert the customer.
NOTE:
The vehicle will only unlock the doors when a valid Pas-
sive Entry key fob is detected inside the vehicle, and no
valid Passive Entry key fob is detected outside 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 and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of either Passive
Entry door handle.
To Enter The Trunk:
With a Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the
deck lid, push the button located on the center of the
light bar which is located on the deck lid above the
license plate.
NOTE:
If you inadvertently leave your vehicle's Passive Entry
key fob in the trunk and try to close the deck lid, the
deck lid will automatically unlatch, unless another one
of the vehicle’s Passive Entry key fobs is outside the
vehicle and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the deck lid.
To Lock The Vehicle’s Doors:
With one of the vehicle’s Passive Entry key fobs within
5 ft (1.5 m) of either door handle, pushing the Passive
Entry lock button will lock both doors.
Do NOT grab the door handle, when pushing the door
handle button. This could unlock the door(s).
