Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry RKE Transmitter In Vehicle (FOBIK-Safe)

To minimize the possibility of unintentionally locking a Passive Entry RKE transmitter inside your vehicle, the Passive Entry system is equipped with an automatic door unlock feature which will function if the ignition switch is in the OFF position.

FOBIK-Safe only executes in vehicles with passive entry.

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 RKE transmitter 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 finds a Passive Entry RKE transmitter inside the car, and it does not find any Passive Entry RKE transmitters outside the car, then the car will unlock and alert the customer.

NOTE: The vehicle will only unlock the doors when a valid Passive Entry RKE transmitter is detected inside the vehicle, and no valid Passive Entry RKE transmitter is detected outside the vehicle. The vehicle will not unlock the doors when any of the following conditions are true:

• The doors are manually locked using the door lock knobs.
• There is a valid Passive Entry RKE transmitter outside the vehicle and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of either Passive Entry door handle.
• Three attempts are made to lock the doors using the door panel switch and then close the doors.

To Unlock/Enter The Liftgate

The liftgate passive entry unlock feature is built into the electronic liftgate release.With a valid Passive Entry RKE transmitter within 3 ft (1.0 m) of the liftgate, push the electronic liftgate release to open with one fluid motion.

NOTE: If "Unlock All Doors 1st Press" is programmed in EVIC/DID (if equipped), all doors will unlock when you push the electronic release on the liftgate. If Unlock Driver Door 1st Press is programmed in Uconnect, the liftgate will unlock when you push the electronic release on the liftgate. Refer to "Uconnect" in "Understanding Your Instrument Panel" for further information.

To Lock The Liftgate

With a valid Passive Entry RKE transmitter within 3 ft (1.0 m) of the liftgate, push the passive entry lock button located to the right of electronic liftgate release.
