Intelligent access
Your intelligent access system uses a radio frequency (RF) signal to
communicate with your vehicle and authorize your vehicle to unlock
when commanded (either by touching the inside of the driver or front
passenger exterior door handle, by activating the exterior power liftgate
button, or a button on the transmitter itself). If excessive RF
interference is present in the area, or if your transmitter battery is low, it
may be necessary to mechanically unlock your door. The mechanical key
blade in your IA key can be used to open the driver’s door in this
situation (refer to
Intelligent access key
in this chapter for more
information on the location and use of the mechanical key blade).
Your vehicle will allow you to unlock and enter your vehicle without
actively using a key or transmitter. You can use the intelligent access
feature at the front doors or at the liftgate. You can activate the
intelligent access feature as long as you have one of your IA keys within
range of the front doors or the liftgate.
Activating intelligent access at the front doors:
If your IA key is
within 3 feet (1 meter) of the front doors you can activate your
intelligent access system by pulling a front exterior door handle. The
door(s) will automatically unlock and the door can be opened.
To lock the doors, press and hold for half a second the lock area on
either front door handle (black button on chrome handled doors or the
small bump on painted door handles).
