• remotely start the vehicle.
The remote entry lock/unlock feature operates in any power mode
except when the vehicle is running and vehicle speed is more than
4 mph (7 km/h).
If there are problems with the remote entry system, make sure to take
ALL intelligent access keys with you to the authorized dealer in order
to aid in troubleshooting the problem.
Intelligent access
The 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 any exterior door
handle, the luggage compartment handle, or a button on the transmitter
itself). If excessive RF interference is present in the area, or if your
vehicle 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 any door 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 doors: If your IA key is within
3 feet (1 meter) of the doors you can
activate your intelligent access
system by touching the inside of any
exterior door handle. The door(s) will
automatically unlock and the door
can be opened.
