KEY FOB
Locking And Unlocking The Doors
• Press and release the UNLOCK buttonon the RKE transmitter once to unlock
the driver’s door (EVIC can be setup for
driver door first, otherwise this will
unlock all doors), or press the unlock
button twice within five seconds to
unlock all doors, the tailgate and the
RamBox
®(if equipped). The turn sig-
nal lights will flash to acknowledge the
unlock signal. The illuminated entry
system will also turn on.
• All doors can be programmed to un- lock on the first press of the UNLOCK
button. Refer to Programmable Fea-
tures in this guide.
Panic Alarm
• Press the PANIC button once to turn the panic alarm on.
• Wait approximately three seconds and press the button a second time to turn the panic alarm off.
Emergency Key
• Should the battery in the vehicle or the Key Fob transmitter go dead, there is an emergency key located in the Key Fob that can be used for locking and unlocking
the doors. To remove the emergency key, slide the button at the top of the Key Fob
sideways with your thumb and then pull the key out with your other hand.
WARNING!
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be severely injured or killed. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal, or the shift lever. Do not
leave the Key Fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location accessible to children,
and do not leave a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-G0™ in the ACC or
ON/RUN mode. A child could start the vehicle, operate power windows, other
controls, or move the vehicle.
• Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior
heat build-up may cause them to be severely injured or killed.

collision. Adjust the column only while the vehicle is stopped. Be sure it is
locked before driving.

5.Theft Alarm Notification - The Theft Alarm Notification feature notifies you via
E-mail or text message (SMS) when the vehicle’s factory-installed theft alarm
system has been set-off. There are a number of reasons why your alarm may have
been triggered, one of which could be that your vehicle was stolen. If so, please
see the details of the Stolen Vehicle Assistance service below. When you register,
Theft Alarm Notification is automatically set to send you an E-mail at the mail
address you provide should the alarm go off. You may also opt to have a text
message sent to your mobile device.
6. Stolen Vehicle Assistance - If your vehicle is stolen, contact local law enforcement
immediately to file a stolen vehicle report. Once this report has been filed,
Uconnect
®care can help locate your vehicle. The Uconnect®Care agent will ask
for the stolen vehicle report number issued by local law enforcement. Then, using
GPS technology and the built-in wireless connection within your vehicle, the
Uconnect
®Care agent will be able to locate the stolen vehicle and work with law
enforcement to help recover it. (Vehicle must be within the United States, have
network coverage and must be registered with Uconnect
®Access with an active
subscription that includes the applicable feature).
7. WiFi Hotspot - WiFi Hotspot is on-demand WiFi 3G connectivity that's built-in and
ready to go whenever you are. Once your vehicle is registered for Uconnect
®
Access, you can purchase a Wifi Hotspot subscription at the Uconnect®Store.
After you've made your purchase, turn on your signal and connect your devices.
It's never been easier to bring your home or office with you.
• Your vehicle must have a working electrical system in order for any of the in vehicle Uconnect
®features to operate.
Uconnect® Access Remote Features
• If you own a compatible iPhone or Android
®powered device, the Uconnect®
Access App allows you to remotely lock or unlock your doors, start your engine
or activate your horn and lights from virtually anywhere (Vehicle must be within
the United States, have network coverage and must be registered with Uconnect
®
Access with an active subscription that includes the applicable feature). You
can download the App from from the Apple App or Google Play store. Visit
www.UconnectPhone.com to determine if your device is compatible. For
Uconnect
®Phone customer support and to determine if your device is compatible:
U.S. residents - visit www.UconnectPhone.com or call 1–877–855–8400.
1. Remote Start – This feature provides the ability to start the engine on your vehicle,
without the keys and from virtually any distance. You can send a request to your
vehicle in one of two ways:

4.Voice Texting – Use the sound of your voice to create, listen to and send text
messages. Just tell Uconnect®what you want the message to say - it will convert
your voice to text and send the message at your command. Powerful, cloud-based
voice recognition allows you to dictate free form text messages, and send them
from your Bluetooth - enabled phone without taking your hands of the wheel or
focus from the road. Requires a cell phone that supports Bluetooth Message
Access Profile (MAP).
WARNING!
• ALWAYS drive safely with your hands on the steering wheel. You have full responsibility and assume all risks related to the use of the Uconnect®features
and applications in this vehicle. Only use Uconnect®when it is safe to do so.
Failure to do so may result in an accident involving serious injury or death.
• Ignoring the Rearview Mirror light could mean you may not have 9-1-1 Call
service when you need it. If the Rearview Mirror light is illuminated, have an
authorized dealer service the 9-1-1 Call system immediately.
• The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) turns on the Air Bag Warning Light on
the instrument panel if a malfunction is detected in any part of the air bag
system. If the Air Bag Warning Light is illuminated, the air bag system may not
be working properly and the 9-1-1 system may not be able to send a signal to
a 9-1-1 operator. If the Air Bag Warning Light is illuminated, have an
authorized dealer service your vehicle immediately.
• If anyone in the vehicle could be in danger (e.g., fire or smoke is visible,
dangerous road conditions or location), do not wait for voice contact from a
9-1-1 operator. All occupants should exit the vehicle immediately and move to
a safe location.
• The 9-1-1 Call system is embedded into the vehicle’s electrical system. Do not
add any aftermarket electrical equipment to the vehicle’s electrical system.
This may prevent your vehicle from sending a signal to initiate an emergency
call. To avoid interference that can cause the 9-1-1 Call system to fail, never
add aftermarket equipment (e.g., two-way mobile radio, CB radio, data
recorder, etc.) to your vehicle’s electrical system or modify the antennas on
your vehicle. IF YOUR VEHICLE LOSES BATTERY POWER FOR ANY REASON
(INCLUDING DURING OR AFTER AN ACCIDENT), THE UCONNECT
®FEA-
TURES, APPS AND SERVICES, AMONG OTHERS, WILL NOT OPERATE.
