Doors and Locks

Activating Intelligent Access (If Equipped) 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 are jammed. Note: The systemmay not function if the passive 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. See Remote Control (page 47). Unlocking Using Intelligent Access E248555 With your intelligent access key within 3 ft (1 m) of your vehicle, touch the unlock sensor on the back of the door handle for a brief period and then pull on the door handle to unlock, being careful to not touch the lock sensor at the same time or pulling the door handle too quickly. The intelligent access system requires a brief delay to authenticate your intelligent access key fob.

If the central locking function does not operate, lock the doors individually using the key in the position shown.
