CAUTION!

• Always remove the Key Fobs from the vehicle and
lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unat­tended.

• For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go,
always remember to place the ignition in the OFF
position.

At the time of purchase, the original owner is provided
with a four-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN).
Keep the PIN in a secure location. This number is
required for authorized dealer replacement of RKE Key
Fobs. Duplication of RKE Key Fobs may be performed at
an authorized dealer. This procedure consists of pro­gramming a blank RKE Key Fob to the vehicle electron­ics. A blank RKE Key Fob is one that has never been
programmed.

serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an authorized
dealer.

KeySense Features — If Equipped

This feature provides the vehicle owner with the ability
to identify a specific vehicle key for which a customized
category of vehicle settings can be applied to determine
the driving experience for other drivers of the vehicle.
The vehicle settings are protected by a unique 4-digit
PIN, which the vehicle owner creates when accessing the
specific settings for the first time.

This feature also has additional features that are always
enabled when the specific key is in use that cannot be set
by the vehicle owner. While this specific RKE Key Fob is
in use, the vehicle will respond accordingly to the cus­tomized vehicle settings and mandatory features. This
includes enhanced driving assistance features, increased
driver alerts, and the locking of certain optional features.
