SENTRY KEY

The Sentry Key Immobilizer System prevents unauthor-

ized vehicle operation by disabling the vehicle. 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 ignition keys which have an embedded

electronic chip (transponder) to prevent unauthorized ve-

hicle operation. Therefore, only keys that are programmed

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

• Do not leave children or animals inside parked

vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up may

cause serious injury or death.

NOTE: A key which has not been programmed is also

considered an invalid key, even if it is cut to fit the ignition

switch lock cylinder for that vehicle.

Replacement Keys

NOTE: Only keys that have been programmed to the

vehicle electronics can be used to start the vehicle. Once a

Sentry Key has been programmed to a vehicle, it cannot

be programmed to any other vehicle. When having the

Sentry Key Immobilizer System serviced, bring all ve-

hicle keys with you to an authorized dealer.

If the vehicle security light is on after the key is turned to

the MAR (ACC/ON/RUN) position, it indicates that there

is a problem with the electronics.
