Smart Key Additional Features

The smart key has convenience buttons in addition to the lock/unlock buttons.

Panic alarm 

A panic alarm feature allows the vehicle alarm system to be activated using the smart key. The panic button, identified by a triangle symbol, can be pressed three times or pressed and held for more than 3 seconds to activate the panic alarm.

To cancel the panic alarm feature, press the panic button three times, press and hold the panic button for three seconds or press the start/stop button. To prevent accidental cancellation, the panic alarm cannot be cancelled within 5 seconds of being activated.

Global Open/Close 

A global open and close feature can be operated from the smart key. This feature allows the vehicle windows to be opened/closed by a single press of the lock or unlock button. The button must be pressed and held for more than 2 seconds to activate the global open/close feature.

Liftgate Release 

A liftgate release button can be pressed to open the liftgate. This will operate with the car locked and alarmed or unlocked. If the vehicle is locked and alarmed, when the liftgate release button is pressed, the liftgate can be opened without triggering the alarm system. When the liftgate is subsequently closed, the alarm will be re - activated.

Headlamp Convenience 

A headlamp convenience button can be pressed to operate the headlamp to assist departure or approach to the vehicle. A single press of the button will operate the headlamps for approximately 25 seconds, after which they automatically go off. A second press of the button will turn off the headlamps if the 25 second period has not been reached. Pressing the Stop/Start button within the 25 second period will also turn off the headlamp convenience feature.
