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.
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, then
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 ve-
hicle will not unlock the doors when any of
the following conditions are met:
• The doors are manually locked using the
door lock knobs.
• There is a valid Passive Entry key fob out-
side the vehicle and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of
either Passive Entry door handle.
