radio waves, it may not function
correctly under the following conditions:
The key fob is carried with
communication devices such as cellular
phones.
The key fob contacts or is covered
by a metal object. The key fob is near electronic
devices such as personal computers.
Non-FCA genuine electronic
equipment is installed in the vehicle.
There is equipment which discharges
radio waves near the vehicle.
The key fob may consume battery
power excessively if it receives
high-intensity radio waves. Do not place
the key fob near electronic devices
such as televisions or personal
computers.
To avoid damage to the key fob, DO
NOT:
Drop the key fob.
Get the key fob wet.
Disassemble the key fob unless
replacing battery.

IGNITION SWITCH Push Button Start
Positions
The system operates only when the key
fob is within operational range.
Each time the keyless ignition
START/STOP button is pushed, the
ignition cycles in the order of OFF, ACC,
and ON. Pushing the START/STOP
button again from ON position cycles
the ignition to the OFF position.
Note:
The engine starts by pushing the
keyless ignition START/STOP button
while depressing the clutch pedal
(manual transmission) or the brake
pedal (automatic transmission). To
change the ignition position, push the
keyless ignition START/STOP button
without depressing the clutch or brake
pedal. Do not leave the ignition in the ON
position while the engine is not
running, doing so could result in the
battery being discharged. If the ignition
is left in ACC position (for automatic
transmission, the gear selector is in the
P position, and the ignition is in ACC),
the ignition cycles to the OFF position
automatically after about 25 minutes.
OFF
The power supply to electrical devices
turns off and the keyless ignition start
indicator light (amber) also turns off. In
the OFF position, the steering wheel is
locked.
ACC (Accessory)
Some electrical accessories will operate
and the indicator light (amber)
illuminates. In the ACC position, the
steering wheel is unlocked.
The Keyless Entry System does not
function while the keyless ignition has
been placed in the ACC position, and
the doors will not lock/unlock even if
they have been locked manually.
ON
This is the normal running position after
the engine is started.
Note: The indicator light (amber) turns
off (the indicator light amber illuminates
when the ignition has been placed in
the ON position and the engine is not
running). Some indicator lights/warning lights
should be inspected before the engine
is started.
When the keyless ignition has been
placed in the ON position, the sound of
the fuel pump motor operating near the
fuel tank can be heard. This does not
indicate an abnormality.
Warning! Never use the PARK position as a
substitute for the parking brake. Always
apply the parking brake fully when exiting
the vehicle to guard against vehicle
movement and possible injury or damage.
When leaving the vehicle, always make
sure the ignition is in the OFF mode,
remove the key fob from the vehicle, and
lock your vehicle.
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 seriously or fatally injured.
Children should be warned not to touch the
parking brake, brake pedal or the transmission
gear selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle, (or in a location accessible to
children), and do not leave the ignition in
the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or
move the vehicle.05010101-L12-001AB

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

Be sure the parking brake is fully
disengaged before driving; failure to do so
can lead to brake failure and a collision.

when leaving your vehicle, or it may roll and
cause damage or injury. Also be certain to
leave the transmission in PARK. Failure to
do so may allow the vehicle to roll and
cause damage or injury.
Driving the vehicle with the parking brake
engaged, or repeated use of the parking
brake to slow the vehicle may cause
serious damage to the brake system.

possible for a replacement and to make
the lost or stolen key fob inoperative.
Note: Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
The Advanced Keyless Entry
System operational range may vary
due to local weather conditions.
The Advanced Keyless Entry
System is fully operational (door/trunk
lid/fuel filler door lock/unlock) when the
ignition is placed in the OFF position.
The Advanced Keyless Entry System
does not operate if the ignition is
placed to any position other than the
OFF position.
If the key fob does not operate
when pushing a button, the operational
range becomes too small, or the
warning light does not illuminate or
flash, the battery may be weak or
discharged. To install a new battery,
refer to “Key Fob Battery
Replacement.”

Daytime Running Lights
(DRL)
The daytime running lights turn on
automatically when the vehicle starts
moving.
They turn off when the parking brake is
engaged or the gear selector is shifted
to the PARK position (if equipped with
automatic transmission).
Note: In some markets, the daytime
running lights can be deactivated. Refer
to “Personalization Features” in “Getting
To Know Your Instrument Panel” for
further information.
High Beams
The headlights can be switched
between high and low beams by
pushing the headlight switch lever
forward for high beams, and pulling the
lever rearward to return to low beams.
When the headlight high beams are on,
the
high beam indicator is
illuminated in the instrument cluster.
Flash To Pass
You can signal another vehicle with your
headlights by partially pulling the
headlight lever toward the steering
wheel. This will cause the high beam
headlights to turn on until the lever is
released.
The
high beam indicator in the
instrument cluster illuminates while the
high beams are active. Automatic Lighting
When the headlight switch is in the
AUTO position and the ignition is
switched ON, the light sensor will
detect the surrounding light levels and
automatically turns the headlights, other
exterior lights and dashboard
illumination on or off.
Note: Do not shade the light sensor by
placing a sticker or a label on the
windshield. Otherwise the light sensor
will not operate correctly.
The light sensor also works as a rain
sensor for the auto-wiper control. Keep
hands and scrapers clear of the
windshield when the wiper lever is in
the AUTO position and the ignition is
switched ON, as fingers could be
pinched or the wipers and wiper blades
damaged when the wipers activate
automatically. If you are going to clean
the windshield, be sure the wipers are turned off completely when the engine
is running.
Note:
The headlights, other exterior lights
and dashboard lights may not turn off
immediately even if the surrounding
area becomes well-lit because the light
sensor determines that it is night time if
the surrounding area is continuously
dark for several minutes such as inside
long tunnels, traffic jams inside tunnels,
or in indoor parking lots. In this case,
the lights turn off if the light switch is
turned to the OFF position.
When the headlight switch is in the
AUTO position and the ignition is
switched to ACC or OFF, the
headlights, other exterior lights and
dashboard illumination will turn off.
The dashboard lights can be
adjusted by rotating the knob in the
instrument cluster. The day/night mode
can be changed by rotating the knob
until a beep sound is heard.
The sensitivity of the automatic
lightsmaybechangedbyan
authorized dealer.
