POWER DOOR LOCKS IF EQUIPPED
The power door lock switches are located on each
front door panel. Push the switch to lock or unlock
the doors.
Power Door Lock Switches
The driver’s door will unlock automatically if the
keys
are found inside the vehicle when the door
lock button on the front door panel is used to lock
the door. This will occur for two attempts. Upon the
third attempt, the doors will lock even if the key is
inside.
NOTE:
If the key fob is located next to a mobile phone,
lapt
op, or other electronic device, the wireless
signal may get blocked, and the driver’s door may
not unlock automatically.
If the door lock switch is pushed while the ignition
is i
n ACC or ON/RUN and the driver's door is open,
the doors will not lock.
If a rear door is locked, it cannot be opened from
insi
de the vehicle without first unlocking the door.
The door may be unlocked manually by raising the
lock knob.
POWER SIDE STEPS IF EQUIPPED
The Power Side Steps will extend a step for easier
entry and exit of the vehicle.
When configured for “Auto” mode, the Power Side
Step
s will deploy when any of the doors are
opened, or when the deploy setting is activated
through the touchscreen. When configured for
“Store” mode, the steps will not deploy unless the
setting is selected manually through the “Controls”
menu within the touchscreen.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 5 mph (8 km/h), or if
the
retract setting is selected within Uconnect
Settings
Ú page 216, the steps will retract.
KEYLESS ENTER N GO
P
ASSIVE ENTRY
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 t
o lock and unlock the vehicle’s door(s) without
having to push the key fob lock or unlock buttons
Ú page 445.
NOTE:
Passive Entry may be programmed on or off
within Uconnect Settings
Ú page 216.
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, posi
-
tion lamps) for whichever time duration is set
betw
een 0, 30, 60 or 90 seconds. Passive Entry
Unlock also initiates two flashes of the turn
signal lamps.
If wearing gloves, or if it has been raining/
snowing 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 relock and (if equipped) will arm the
Vehicle Security system.
