Know what kind of control to look for.
This original category diagram is an orientation aid, not a picture of your exact trim. Use the written labels and your vehicle manual to identify the real control.
Step by step.
- 01
Carry a valid Passive Entry fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of an equipped door handle.
- 02
Grab the driver handle for the programmed driver-only or all-door result; grab the passenger handle, or an equipped rear handle, to unlock all doors and the liftgate.
- 03
Close every opening and keep the fob outside.
- 04
Touch the lock icon on an equipped handle without gripping the handle itself.
- 05
After the two-second verification delay, pull the handle to confirm it stayed locked.
Important limits
- Rear handles without the four-door option do not provide Passive Entry.
- FOBIK-Safe can unlock and alert when it detects a valid fob inside, but certain manual or repeated lock sequences can defeat that protection.
- Do not grip the handle while touching its lock icon.
Quick checks.
- ✓Move the fob away from a phone or laptop and closer than 5 ft.
- ✓Confirm Passive Entry is enabled in Uconnect and try a front handle if a rear handle is not equipped.
- ✓Use the fob buttons and replace a depleted fob battery if no handle responds.
