NOTE:
• Passive Entry may be programmed ON/OFF; refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further infor-
mation.
• If wearing gloves on your hands, 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 re-lock and
if equipped will arm the security alarm.
• The key fob may not be able to 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 handle from locking/unlocking the ve-
hicle.
• Passive Entry activates illuminated approach for the
time set by the customer (0, 30, 60, or 90 seconds), and
flashes the turn signal lights. Refer to “Uconnect Set-
tings” in “Multimedia for further information.

unlock the driver’s door automatically.
NOTE:
If “Unlock All Doors 1st Press” is programmed, all
doors will unlock when you grab hold of the front driver’s
