SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key௡ Immobilizer System prevents unauthor-

ized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The

system does not need to be armed or activated. Operation

is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is locked

or unlocked.
The system uses Key Fob with factory-mated Remote

Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and Wireless Ignition

Node (WIN) to prevent unauthorized vehicle operation.

Therefore, only Key Fobs that are programmed to the

vehicle can be used to start and operate the vehicle. The

system will shut the engine off in two seconds if an

invalid Key Fob is used to start the engine.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON/RUN posi-

tion, the Vehicle Security Light will turn on for three

seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains on after the

bulb check, it indicates that there is a problem with the

electronics. This condition will result in the engine being

shut off after two seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during normal

vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than 10 sec-

onds), it indicates that there is a fault in the electronics.

Should this occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as

possible by an authorized dealer.

CAUTION!

The Sentry KeyImmobilizer system is not compat-
ible with some after-market remote starting systems.
Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting
problems and loss of security protection.

All of the Key Fobs provided with your new vehicle have

been programmed to the vehicle electronics.
