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.

REMOTE START
• Press the REMOTE START buttonx2on the Key Fob twice within five seconds.
Pressing the REMOTE STARTx2button a third time shuts the engine off.
• To drive the vehicle, press the UNLOCK button, insert the Key Fob in the ignition and turn to the ON/RUN position.
• With remote start, the engine will only run for 15 minutes (timeout) unless the ignition Key Fob is placed in the ON/RUN position.
• The vehicle must be started with the Key Fob after two consecutive timeouts.
WARNING!
• Do not start or run an engine in a closed garage or confined area. Exhaust gas contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is odorless and colorless. Carbon
Monoxide is poisonous and can cause you or others to be severely injured or
killed when inhaled.
• Keep Key Fob transmitters away from children. Operation of the Remote Start
System, windows, door locks or other controls could cause you and others to be
severely injured or killed.
THEFT ALARM
To Arm:
• Press the Key Fob LOCK button or the power door lock switch while the door isopen.
To Disarm:
• Press the Key Fob UNLOCK button or turn the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
SEAT BELT
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
• Position the lap belt across your thighs, below your abdomen. To remove slack in the lap portion, pull up a bit on the shoulder belt. To loosen the lap belt if it is too
tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on the lap belt. A snug belt reduces the risk of
sliding under the belt in a collision.
• Position the shoulder belt on your chest so that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck. The retractor will withdraw any slack in the belt.
•
A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during a collision.
You are more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not wear your shoulder belt.
The lap and shoulder belt are meant to be used together.
