LOCKING AND UNLOCKING

You can use the power door lock or the remote control to lock and unlock your vehicle.

An LED on each door window trim lights when you lock the door. It remains on for up to five minutes after you switch the ignition off.

Switch Inhibitor
When you electronically lock your vehicle, the power door lock and interior luggage compartment release switch no longer operate after 20 seconds. Make sure you unlock your vehicle with the remote control, intelligent access, or keyless keypad, or switch the ignition on, to restore function to these switches. You can switch this feature on or off from the touchscreen.

Activating Intelligent Access
General Information
You can unlock and lock the vehicle without taking the keys out of your pocket or purse when your intelligent access key is within 3 ft (1 m) of your vehicle. Intelligent access uses a sensor on the back of the door handle for unlocking, and a separate sensor on the face of each door handle for locking. The system does not function if:

• Your vehicle battery has no charge.
• The key battery has no charge.
• The key frequencies have jammed.

Note: The system may not function if the intelligent access key is close to metal objects or electronic devices, for example, keys or a cell phone.

Note: If the system does not function, use the key blade to lock and unlock your vehicle.
