Page: 18 / 360

NOTE:
•
The interior lights will turn off if you place the igni-
tion in the ON/RUN position while the Panic feature
is activated. However, the exterior lights and horn
(if equipped with horn alarm) will remain on.
•
You may need to be less than 35 ft (11 m) from the
vehicle when using the key fob to turn off the Panic
feature due to the radio frequency noises emitted by
the system.
Key Left Vehicle Feature
If a valid key fob is no longer detected inside the vehicle
while the vehicle’s ignition system is in the ON/RUN or
START position, the message “Key Fob Has Left The
Vehicle” will be shown in the instrument cluster display
along with an interior chime. An exterior audible and
visual alert will also be activated to warn the driver.
The vehicle’s horn will rapidly chirp three times along
with a single flash of the vehicle’s exterior lights.
NOTE:
•
The doors have to be open and then closed in order
for the vehicle to detect a key fob. The Key Left
Vehicle feature will activate when the first door is
closed and no key fob is detected in the vehicle. If
the warning has been activated, and the other doors
are closed, no other warnings will be issued.
•
These alerts will not be activated in situations where
either the vehicle’s engine is left running with the
key fob inside, or the key fob’s wireless signals are
blocked.
Replacing The Battery In The Key Fob
The replacement battery model is one CR2032 battery.

1. Remove the emergency key (1) by pushing and hold-
ing the release button (2) located on the side of the
key fob while pulling the emergency key out with
your other hand.
2. Hold the key fob with the button side facing down,
and locate the small rectangular gap on the left side
between the housing and the back cover of the key
fob. Use a small screwdriver (or similar tool) to pry
open the left side of the fob cover while applying
pressure until the cover snaps open.
3. Next, locate the gap on the right side of the key fob,
which is positioned farther to the edge than the left
side gap. Pry open the right side, and remove the
back cover.
4. Remove the battery by using a suitable tool, such as
a screwdriver, to slide the battery downward and
back toward the key ring.
