NOTE:

• After pushing the door handle button, you must wait two seconds before you can lock or unlock the doors, using either 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 reacting and unlocking.
• If Passive Entry is disabled using Uconnect System, the key protection described in Preventing Inadvertent Locking of Passive Entry RKE Transmitter in Vehicle remains active/functional.
• The Passive Entry system will not operate if the RKE transmitter battery is dead.

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