the far left detent position).
NOTE:If your vehicle is equipped with illuminated
approach lights under the outside mirrors, they can be

“Driver Information Display (DID),” or “Uconnect Set-
tings” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for
further information.REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY (RKE)
The RKE system allows you to lock or unlock all doors,
tailgate, and the RamBox (if equipped) as well as activate
the Panic Alarm from distances up to approximately 66 ft
(20 m) using a hand-held radio transmitter with inte-
grated key. The transmitter does not need to be pointed at
the vehicle to activate the system. Push and release the
LOCK button on the RKE transmitter to lock all doors,
the tailgate and the RamBox (if equipped). The turn
signal lights will flash and the horn will chirp to ac-
knowledge the signal.
NOTE: Inserting the Key Fob with RKE transmitter into
the ignition switch disables the system from responding
to any button pushes from that RKE transmitter. Driving
at speeds 5 mph (8 km/h) and above disables the system
from responding to all RKE transmitter buttons for all
RKE transmitters.

Automatic Dimming Mirror With Rear View
Camera Display — If Equipped
A single ball joint mirror is provided in the vehicle. It is
a twist on mirror that has a fixed position at the wind-
shield. The mirror installs on the windshield button with
a counterclockwise rotation and requires no tools for
mounting. The mirror head can be adjusted up, down,
left, and right for various drivers. The mirror should be
adjusted to center on the view through the rear window.
This mirror automatically adjusts for headlight glare
from vehicles behind you.
When the vehicle is placed into reverse gear a video
display illuminates to display the image generated by the
rear view camera. The auto dimming feature is also
disabled to improve rear view viewing.
Outside Mirrors
To receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside mirrors
to center on the adjacent lane of traffic with a slight
overlap of the view obtained on the inside mirror.
