    NOTE:

    • The vehicle must be equipped with an auto-matic transmission to be equipped with Re-mote Start.

    • Obstructions between the vehicle and key fobmay reduce this range.

    All of the following conditions must be metbefore the engine will remote start:

    • Gear Selector in PARK• Doors closed• Hood closed• Liftgate closed• Hazard switch off• Brake switch inactive (brake pedal not

    pushed)

    • Battery at an acceptable charge level

    • System not disabled from previous remotestart event

    • Vehicle alarm system indicator flashing• Ignition in STOP/OFF position• Fuel level meets minimum requirement• Vehicle security alarm is not signaling an

    intrusion

    WARNING!

    • Do not start or run an engine in a closedgarage or confined area. Exhaust gascontains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which isodorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxideis poisonous and can cause serious injuryor death when inhaled.

    • Keep key fobs away from children. Opera-tion of the Remote Start System, windows,door locks or other controls could causeserious injury or death.

    Remote Start Abort Message — IfEquippedThe following messages will display in the in-strument cluster display if the vehicle fails toremote start or exits remote start prematurely:

    • Remote Start Aborted — Door Open• Remote Start Aborted — Hood Open• Remote Start Aborted — Liftgate Open

    • Remote Start Aborted — Fuel Low• Remote Start Disabled — Start Vehicle To

    Reset

    The Remote Start Abort message stays activeuntil the ignition is turned to the ON/RUN posi-tion.

    To Enter Remote Start ModePush and release the remote start button on thekey fob twice within five seconds. The vehicledoors will lock, the parking lights will flash, andthe horn will chirp twice (if programmed). Then,the engine will start, and the vehicle will remainin the Remote Start mode for a 15-minute cycle.

    NOTE:The Remote Start Comfort System can be acti-vated and deactivated through the UconnectSystem. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multi-media” for further information on Remote StartComfort System operation.

    SENTRY KEYThe Sentry Key Immobilizer system preventsunauthorized vehicle operation by disabling theengine. The system does not need to be armedor activated. Operation is automatic, regardlessof whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked.

    The system uses a key fob and a Keyless PushButton Ignition, and a RF receiver to preventunauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore, onlykey fobs that are programmed to the vehicle canbe used to start and operate the vehicle. If aninvalid key fob is used to attempt to start andoperate the vehicle, the system will not allow theengine to crank. If an invalid key fob is used tostart the engine, the system will shut the engineoff in two seconds.

    After placing the ignition to the ON/RUN mode,the vehicle security light will turn on for threeseconds for a bulb check. If the light remains onafter the bulb check, it indicates that there is a

    problem with the electronics. In addition, if thelight begins to flash after the bulb check, itindicates that someone used an invalid key fobto start the engine. Either of these conditions willresult in the engine being shut off after twoseconds.

    If the vehicle security light turns on duringnormal vehicle operation (vehicle running forlonger than 10 seconds), it indicates that there isa fault in the electronics. Should this occur, havethe vehicle serviced as soon as possible by anauthorized dealer.

    CAUTION!

    The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is notcompatible with some aftermarket remotestarting systems. Use of these systems mayresult in vehicle starting problems and loss ofsecurity protection.

    All of the key fobs provided with your newvehicle have been programmed to the vehicleelectronics.

    Customer Key ProgrammingProgramming key fobs may be performed at anauthorized dealer.

    VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM —IF EQUIPPEDThe vehicle security alarm monitors the vehicledoors for unauthorized entry and the KeylessEnter-N-Go — Ignition for unauthorized opera-

    tion. While the vehicle security alarm is armed,interior switches for door locks and liftgate re-lease are disabled. If something triggers thealarm, the vehicle security alarm will provide thefollowing audible and visible signals: the hornwill pulse, the park lamps and/or turn signals willflash, and the vehicle security light in the instru-ment cluster will flash.

    N-Go — Passive Entry, push the keylessignition button (requires at least one validkey fob in the vehicle).

    • For vehicles not equipped with KeylessEnter-N-Go — Passive Entry, insert a validkey into the ignition and turn the key to theON position.

    NOTE:

    • The driver’s door key cylinder and the liftgatebutton on the key fob cannot arm or disarmthe vehicle security alarm.

    • The vehicle security alarm remains armedduring power liftgate entry. Pushing the lift-

  • gate button will not disarm the vehicle secu-rity alarm. If someone enters the vehiclethrough the liftgate and opens any door, thealarm will sound.

    • When the vehicle security alarm is armed, theinterior power door lock switches will notunlock the doors.

    The vehicle security alarm is designed to protectyour vehicle. However, you can create condi-tions where the system will give you a falsealarm. If one of the previously described armingsequences has occurred, the vehicle securityalarm will arm regardless of whether you are inthe vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicleand open a door, the alarm will sound. If thisoccurs, disarm the vehicle security alarm.

    If the vehicle security alarm is armed and thebattery becomes disconnected, the vehicle se-curity alarm will remain armed when the batteryis reconnected; the exterior lights will flash, andthe horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm thevehicle security alarm.

    Rearming Of The SystemIf something triggers the alarm, and no action istaken to disarm it, the vehicle security alarm willturn the horn off after 29 seconds, five secondsbetween cycles, up to eight cycles if the triggerremains active and the vehicle security alarmwill rearm itself.

    Driver Memory Seat — If EquippedThis feature allows the driver to store up to twodifferent memory profiles for easy recall througha memory switch. Each memory profile containsdesired position settings for the driver seat, sidemirrors, and power tilt and telescopic steeringcolumn (if equipped) and a set of desired radiostation presets. Your key fob can also be pro-grammed to recall the same positions when theunlock button is pushed.

    NOTE:Your vehicle is equipped with two key fobs, onekey fob can be linked to memory position 1 andthe other key fob can be linked to memoryposition 2.

    The memory seat switch is located on thedriver’s door trim panel. The switch consists ofthree buttons:

    • The set (S) button, which is used to activatethe memory save function.

    • The (1) and (2) buttons which are used torecall either of two pre-programmed memoryprofiles.

    Programming The Memory Feature

    NOTE:To create a new memory profile, perform thefollowing:

    1. Cycle the vehicle’s ignition to the ON/RUNposition (do not start the engine).

    2. Adjust all memory profile settings to desiredpreferences (i.e., seat, side mirror, power tiltand telescopic steering column [if equipped],and radio station presets).

    3. Push and release the set (S) button on thememory switch.

    4. Within five seconds, push and release eitherof the memory buttons (1) or (2). The instru-ment cluster display will display whichmemory position has been set.

  • NOTE:

    • Memory profiles can be set without the ve-hicle in PARK, but the vehicle must be inPARK to recall a memory profile.

    • To set a memory profile to your key fob, referto “Linking And Unlinking The Remote Key-less Entry Key Fob To Memory” in thissection.

    Linking And Unlinking The Remote KeylessEntry Key Fob To MemoryYour key fobs can be programmed to recall oneof two pre-programmed memory profiles bypushing the unlock button on the key fob.

    NOTE:Before programming your key fobs you mustselect the “Memory Linked To FOB” featurethrough the Uconnect system screen. Refer to“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for furtherinformation.

    To program your key fobs, perform the following:

    1. Cycle the vehicle’s ignition to the OFF posi-tion.

    2. Select a desired memory profile, 1 or 2.

    NOTE:If a memory profile has not already been set,refer to "Programming The Memory Feature" inthis section for instructions on how to set amemory profile.

    3. Once the profile has been recalled, push andrelease the set (S) button on the memoryswitch.

    4. Within five seconds, push and release button(1) or (2) accordingly. “Memory Profile Set”(1 or 2) will display in the instrument cluster.
