KEYLESS ENTER ‘N GO™ —PASSIVE ENTRY (IF EQUIPPED)

The Passive Entry system is a feature that allows you to lock and unlock the vehicle’s door(s) and swing gate without having to push the key fob lock or unlock buttons.

NOTE

Passive Entry may be programmed on/off within the Uconnect Settings page 207.
The key fob may not be detected by the vehicle Passive Entry system if it is located next to a mobile phone, laptop, or another electronic device; these devices may interfere with the key fob’s wireless signal and prevent the Passive Entry system from locking/unlocking the vehicle.
Passive Entry Unlock initiates an illuminated approach (low beams, license plate lamp, position lamps) for whichever time duration is set between 0, 30, 60, or 90 seconds. Passive Entry Unlock also initiates two flashes of the turn signal lamps.
If wearing gloves, or if it has been raining/snowing on the Passive Entry door handle, the unlock sensitivity can be affected, resulting in a slower response time.
If the vehicle is unlocked by Passive Entry and no door is opened within 60 seconds, the vehicle will relock and, if equipped, will arm the Vehicle Security system.

To Unlock From The Driver or Passenger Side

With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the door handle, grab the handle to unlock the vehicle. Grabbing the driver’s door handle will unlock the driver’s door automatically. Grabbing the passenger door handle will unlock all doors and the swing gate automatically.

NOTE
Either the driver door only or all doors will unlock when you grab hold of the front driver’s door handle, depending on the selected setting in the Uconnect system page 207.

Frequency Operated Button Integrated Key (FOBIK-Safe)

To minimize the possibility of unintentionally locking a Passive Entry key fob inside your vehicle, the Passive Entry system is equipped with an automatic door unlock feature which will function only if the ignition switch is in the OFF position. FOBIK-Safe only executes in vehicles with a START/STOP ignition. There are three situations that trigger a FOBIK-Safe search in any Passive Entry vehicle:

A lock request is made by a valid Passive Entry key fob while a door is open.
A lock request is made by the Passive Entry door handle while a door is open.
A lock request is made by the door panel switch while the door is open.

When any of these situations occur, after all open doors are shut, the FOBIK-Safe search will be executed. If it detects a Passive Entry key fob inside the vehicle, the vehicle will unlock and alert the customer. If Passive Entry is disabled using the Uconnect system, the key protection described in this section remains active/functional.

NOTE

The vehicle will only unlock the doors during a FOBIK-Safe operation when a valid Passive Entry key fob is detected inside the vehicle. The vehicle will not unlock the doors when any of the following conditions are true:

A second valid passive entry key fob is detected outside of the vehicle (within 5 ft (1.5 m) of a Passive Entry door handle).
The doors are manually locked using the door lock knobs.
Three attempts are made to lock the doors using the door panel switch, and then the doors are closed.

To Lock The Vehicle’s Doors And Swing Gate

With one of the vehicle’s Passive Entry key fobs within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver or passenger’s front door handles, pushing the Passive Entry lock button will lock the vehicle doors and the swing gate.

NOTE
DO NOT grab the door handle when pushing the door handle lock button. This could unlock the door(s).

The vehicle doors can also be locked by using the lock button located on the vehicle’s interior door panel.

To Unlock/Enter The Swing Gate

The swing gate Passive Entry unlock feature is built into the swing gate handle. With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the swing gate handle, grab the swing gate handle to unlock the swing gate automatically, and pull the swing gate to open.

To Lock The Swing Gate

With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the swing gate handle, pushing the Passive Entry lock button will lock the vehicle doors and the swing gate.

NOTE

After pushing the door handle button, you must wait two seconds before you can lock or unlock the doors, using any Passive Entry door handle. This is done to allow you to check if the vehicle is locked by pulling the door handle without the vehicle unlocking.
If Passive Entry is disabled using the Uconnect Settings, the key protection described in “Frequency Operated Button Integrated Key (FOBIK-Safe)” remains active/functional.
The Passive Entry system will not operate if the key fob battery is depleted page 431.

AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS —IF EQUIPPED

The Automatic Door Lock feature default condition is enabled. When enabled, the door locks will lock automatically when the vehicle’s speed exceeds 15 mph (24 km/h).

Door Latch Alignment

CAUTION! Upon the first installation of the half-doors, slowly set the door almost to the closing position and check how the door latch aligns with the body striker. Touch condition between these components can result in damage to both the door and the striker.

NOTE:
Only adjust the door to fit correctly against the striker. DO NOT adjust the striker, as this could affect the positioning of the full door. If the door does not center align between the latch and the striker, proceed as follows:

Loosen (do not remove) the four bolts on the door hinges using the provided #T50 Torx head driver.
With the bolts loose, hold the door in the almost closed position, and check that the latch and striker align.
With the latch and striker aligned, proceed to close the door softly and tighten the hinge bolts to 20.3 ft· lb / 27.5 N·m (Max Torque: 27.3 ft· lb / 37 N·m).

Lower Door Adjustment

CAUTION
Upon first installation of the half-doors, slowly close each door to check for body contact. Improper setting of the door hinges can cause extreme non-uniform conditions, and result in damage to the body around the door.

If the door does not latch properly after installation, if there is interference between the panels, or if a non-uniform gap around the door is observed when the door is closed (example: door position appears to be low and too far rearward), the position of the door on its hinges may need to be adjusted. To do this, proceed as follows:

Loosen (do not remove) the four bolts on the door hinges using the provided #T50 Torx head driver.
NOTE: Do not adjust the body-mounted hinges, or any part of the door latch, as modifications to these parts will affect the installation of the full door.
With the bolts loose, the door can be moved forward by pushing the door handle toward the front of the vehicle, and/or upward by grabbing the door handle and lifting towards the roof.
Once the gaps between the door and vehicle body are uniform around the entire door, tighten the door hinge bolts to 20.3 ft· lb / 27.5 N·m (Max Torque: 27.3 ft· lb / 37 N·m).

Upper Door Adjustment
After installation of the half-doors, if water leaks or wind noise is observed, the seal of the upper half-door to the door opening may need to be adjusted.
To determine if the upper half-door needs to be adjusted, proceed as follows:

Determine which door is affected.
Open the affected door and hold a dollar-size piece of paper along the top of the door opening against the vehicle near where the leak/noise was observed. Make sure half of the paper is above the area where the door seal contacts the door opening, while the other half is below.
Close the door on the paper, then pull the paper upward. If the paper moves with little to no effort, the upper half-door will need to be adjusted in that area to increase seal compression.

There is another optional test that can be performed using a flashlight and the help of another person.
One person should be inside the vehicle, and move the flashlight around the periphery of the door seal, shining outward. The other person should stand outside of the vehicle and check for light passing by the seal. If light is seen through the seal area, the door will need to be adjusted.

To adjust the seal compression, proceed as follows:

Open the door and lift the upper half door up and away from the lower half. Lay the upper half-door on a clean, dry surface.
Using an 8 mm open-end wrench (not provided), loosen the nut located inside the bottom of the upper half-door post, closest to where the “paper test” detected a gap.
Using a 3 mm Allen wrench (not provided), rotate the screw on the side of the post counterclockwise (while holding the wrench on the loosened bolt) to increase the seal compression. If needed, rotate clockwise to reduce seal compression.
1. 3 mm Allen Wrench
2. 8 mm Open-End Wrench
Tighten the nut inside the bottom of the post using the wrench and make sure the screw head is flush to the post. Reinstall the upper half-door.
Close the door and repeat the “paper test”. Repeat the adjustment procedure if needed.
If needed, add the provided shim to a lower half-door pocket to seal the upper half-door to the roof:
1. Lift upper half door up and away from the lower half.
2. Clean the bottom of the door pocket.
3. Slide the shim onto a pencil or similar tool.
4. Remove the paper backing from the adhesive side of the shim and place the shim with a pencil into the pocket.
5. Press the shim firmly to the bottom of the pocket, and remove the pencil once the shim is firmly in place.
  - Remove Paper Backing From Shim
  - Slide Pencil through Hole In Shim
  - Press Pencil With Shim Into Pocket
6. Replace upper half-door.

NOTE
If the compression is increased too much on the front upper corner of the rear doors, deformation of the seal will occur.

Half-Door Removal
To remove the half-doors, repeat the installation steps in reverse order.
NOTE:
When removing the upper half-doors, push upward firmly on the middle of the upper half-door until the posts detach from the lower half.
