The passive UNLOCK (door UNLOCK) is activated by the door handle switch with a valid smart key 

present within the passive entry actuation area.

Passive UNLOCK and verification by door handle switch

▶

The driver door is locked and the system in the theft deterrent mode.

The door handle switch on the driver or passenger door is pressed briefly. 

The SKM verifies if a smart key is outside the vehicle using the door handle antenna (LF verification) 

(The SKM searches the last smart key used first).

The verification signal (RF verification) from the smart key is sent to the REKES antenna of the SKM.

The SKM sends the Passive UNLOCK signal to the BCM through the B-CAN if the verified smart key 

is found outside the vehicle.

The BCM receives the signal from the SKM and controls the door UNLOCK actuator and turn signal 

lamp. (The buzzer sounds twice and hazard warning lamp flashes once when the theft deterrent 

mode is deactivated)

If no smart key is identified as being outside the vehicle, the passive UNLOCK process is stopped 

and restarted when the next signal is received from the door handle switch. 

When the driver door is locked with ACC ON, the SKM sends the Passive UNLOCK signal to the 

BCM through the B-CAN to unlock the door without changing the ignition status to OFF. (The vehicle 

power is turned OFF when the door is opened.)

checking a valid smart key inside the vehicle. When a valid smart key is found inside the vehicle, the 

external buzzer and smart key detected warning indicator is operated for 10 seconds.

If no smart key is identified as being outside the vehicle, the passive gate open process is stopped 

and restarted when the next signal is received from the tailgate open switch.

The tailgate open switch signal is received.

The BCM sends the valid smart key verification request signal to the SKM.

The SKM verifies if a smart key is outside the vehicle using the corresponding rear bumper antenna 

(LF verification) (The SKM searches the last smart key used first. If a valid smart key searching is 

completed, searching for a key in the luggage compartment and inside the vehicle is started).

The verification signal (RF verification) from the smart key is sent to the REKES antenna of the SKM.

The SKM sends the Passive tailgate open signal to the BCM through the B-CAN if the verified smart 

key is found outside the vehicle.

The BCM activates the tailgate open relay according to the signal received from the SKM.

(Only the theft deterrent mode for tailgate is deactivated.)
