Keys and Remote Control

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

The remote control allows you to:

• remotely lock or unlock the vehicle doors
• unlock the doors without actively using a key or remote control (intelligent access only)
• remotely open the power liftgate (if equipped)
• remotely start or stop the engine (if equipped)
• arm and disarm the anti-theft system
• activate the panic alarm.

Intelligent Access (If Equipped)

Your vehicle will allow you to unlock and enter your vehicle without actively using a key or remote control. You can use this feature at the front doors or at the liftgate/trunk. You can activate the intelligent access feature as long as you have one of your intelligent access keys within range of the front doors or the liftgate/trunk.
