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. Either of these conditions will result in the
engine being shut off after two seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during
normal vehicle operation (vehicle running for
longer than 10 seconds), it indicates that there
is a fault in the electronics. Should this occur,
have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by
an authorized dealer.
All of the key fobs provided with your new
vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle
electronics.

This feature allows the driver to operate the
ignition with the push of a button as long as the
key fob is in the passenger compartment.
The START/STOP ignition button has three
operating modes. The three modes are OFF,
ON/RUN, and START.
NOTE:
The vehicle will not start if the key fob is located
inside the cargo area and the liftgate is opened.
START/STOP Ignition Button
The push button ignition can be placed in the
following positions:
OFF
The engine is stopped.
No electrical devices are available.
ON
The vehicle is not running.
Some electrical devices (central locking,
alarm, etc.) are still available.
RUN
Driving mode.
All electrical devices are available (e.g.
climate controls, heated seats, etc).
NOTE:
If the ignition state/mode does not change with
the push of a button, the key fob may have a low
or depleted battery. In this situation, a back up
method can be used to operate the ignition
switch. Put the nose side (side opposite of the
emergency key) of the key fob against the
START/STOP ignition button and push to
operate the ignition.
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.
