General Information

The following regulatory statement applies to all radio

frequency (RF) devices equipped in this vehicle:

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and

with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s).

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and

2. This device must accept any interference received, in-

cluding interference that may cause undesired opera-

tion.

NOTE: Changes or modifications not expressly approved

by the party responsible for compliance could void the

user’s authority to operate the equipment.

SENTRY KEY

The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents unauthorized

vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The system does

not need to be armed or activated. Operation is automatic,

regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked.

The system uses a key fob, keyless push button ignition

and a RF receiver to prevent unauthorized vehicle opera-

tion. Therefore, only key fobs that are programmed to the

vehicle can be used to start and operate the vehicle. The

system will not allow the engine to crank if an invalid key

fob is used.

After turning the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position,

the vehicle security light will turn on for three seconds for

a bulb check. If the light remains on after the bulb check, it

indicates that there is a problem with the electronics. In

addition, if the light begins to flash after the bulb check, it

indicates that someone attempted to start the engine with

an invalid key fob. In the event that a valid key fob is used

to start the engine but there is an issue with the vehicle

electronics, the engine will start and shut off after two

seconds.

If the vehicle security light turns on during normal vehicle

operation (vehicle running for longer than ten seconds), it

indicates that there is a fault in the electronics. Should this

3

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 29

occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by an

authorized dealer.

CAUTION!

The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not compatible

with some aftermarket remote starting systems. Use of

these systems may result in vehicle starting problems

and loss of security protection.

All of the key fobs provided with your new vehicle have

been programmed to the vehicle electronics.

Customer Key Programming

Programming key fobs may be performed at an authorized

dealer.

Replacement Keys

NOTE: Only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle

electronics can be used to start and operate the vehicle.

Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be

programmed to any other vehicle.

CAUTION!

•Always remove the key fobs from the vehicle and

lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.

•For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go —

Ignition, always remember to place the ignition in

the OFF position.

NOTE: Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an

authorized dealer. This procedure consists of programming

a blank key fob to the vehicle electronics. A blank key fob

is one that has never been programmed.

When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer System serviced,

bring all vehicle keys with you to an authorized dealer.

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM — IF EQUIPPED

The vehicle security alarm monitors the vehicle doors for

unauthorized entry and the keyless push button ignition

for unauthorized operation. While the vehicle security

alarm is armed, interior switches for door locks and trunk

release are disabled. If something triggers the alarm, the

vehicle security alarm will provide the following audible

and visible signals: the horn will pulse, the park lamps

and/or turn signals will flash, and the vehicle security light

in the instrument cluster will flash.

To Arm The System

Follow these steps to arm the vehicle security alarm:

1. Make sure the vehicle’s ignition is placed in the OFF

mode. Refer to Ignition Switch in “Getting To Know⬙ ⬙

Your Vehicle” for further information.

2. Perform one of the following methods to lock the

vehicle:

•Push lock on the interior power door lock switch with

the driver and/or passenger door open.

•Push the lock button on the exterior Passive Entry

Door Handle with a valid key fob available in the same

exterior zone (refer to Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive⬙

Entry, located in “Doors” in “Getting To Know Your⬙

Vehicle for further information).⬙

•Push the lock button on the key fob.

3. If any doors are open, close them.

NOTE: Security System Manual Override

The vehicle security alarm will not arm if you lock the

doors using the manual door lock plunger.

To Disarm The System

The vehicle security alarm can be disarmed using any of

the following methods:

•Push the unlock button on the key fob.

•Grasp the Passive Entry Unlock Door Handle, if

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 31

•Push the Keyless Enter-N-Go ignition button (requires at

least one valid key fob in the vehicle).

NOTE:

•The driver’s door key cylinder and the trunk button on

the key fob cannot arm or disarm the vehicle security

alarm.

•When the vehicle security alarm is armed, the interior

power door lock switches will not unlock the doors.

The vehicle security alarm is designed to protect your

vehicle. However, you can create conditions where the

system will give you a false alarm. If one of the previously

described arming sequences has occurred, the vehicle

security alarm will arm regardless of whether you are in

the vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicle and open a

door, the alarm will sound. If this occurs, disarm the

vehicle security alarm.

If the vehicle security alarm is armed and the battery

becomes disconnected, the vehicle security alarm will

remain armed when the battery is reconnected; the exterior

lights will flash, the horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm

the vehicle security alarm.

Rearming Of The System

If something triggers the alarm, and no action is taken to

disarm it, the vehicle security alarm will turn the horn off

after 29 seconds, five seconds between cycles, up to eight

cycles if the trigger remains active and the vehicle security

alarm will rearm itself.

Tamper Alert

If something has triggered the vehicle security alarm in

your absence, the horn will sound three times and the

exterior lights will blink three times when you disarm the

vehicle security alarm. Check the vehicle for tampering.

Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry Key

Fob In Vehicle (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.

FOBIK-Safe only executes in vehicles with passive entry.

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 finds a

Passive Entry key fob inside the car, and it does not find

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

Passive 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.

•There is a valid Passive Entry key fob outside the vehicle

and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of either Passive Entry door

handle.

•Three attempts are made to lock the doors using the

door panel switch and then close the doors.

36 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

4. The doors were not previously unlocked.

NOTE: Automatic Unlock Doors On Exit Programming

To change the current setting, refer to “Uconnect Settings”

in “Multimedia” for further information.
