Hands Free Entry
An optional hands free system is available factory-installed equipment for this vehicle. When the customer executes a valid "kick" under the liftgate or one of the sliding doors, the hands free system allows the power sliding door or liftgate to be unlocked and opened without the use of a key or door handle, as long as an authorized FOB with Integrated Key (FOBIK) is in the possession of, or in close proximity to the individual and the aperture of the vehicle.
The PE system includes the following major components, which are described in further detail elsewhere in this service information:
- Body Control Module - The Body Control Module (BCM) is the gateway module and corresponds with the hands free modules over the LIN bus.
- Hands Free Zone Sensors:
- Under each sliding door sill are two capacitive sensors fixed to a door sill bracket. These sensors are designated as zone 1 and 2.
- The sensor bracket for the liftgate is mounted in the rear fascia
- Dedicated Hands Free Modules:
- One dedicated hands free module (3) for each sliding door is fixed to the door sill bracket.
- One dedicated hands free module (1) for the liftgate
- Radio Frequency Hub - The Radio Frequency Hub (RFH) is the PE system control module and RF receiver located above the headliner attached to the rear roof structure. Refer to MODULE, RADIO FREQUENCY (RF HUB), DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION .
This system is not available for vehicles equipped with running boards.
