2018 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE keyless

To Disarm The System
The vehicle security alarm can be disarmed
using any of the following methods:
• Push the unlock button on the key fob.
• Grasp the Passive Entry Unlock Door
Handle (refer to "Keyless Enter-N-Go" in
“Doors” in Getting To Know Your Vehicle" in
your Owner’s Manual for further informa-
tion).
• Cycle the vehicle ignition system out of the
OFF position.
– For vehicles equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go, push the Keyless Enter-
N-Go Start/Stop button (requires at
least one valid key fob in the vehicle).
– For vehicles not equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go, insert a valid key into the
ignition switch and turn the key to the
ON position.
NOTE:
• The driver's door key cylinder and the lift-
gate button on the key fob cannot arm or
disarm the vehicle security alarm.• The vehicle security alarm remains armed
during power liftgate entry. Pushing the
liftgate button will not disarm the vehicle
security alarm. If someone enters the ve-
hicle through the liftgate and opens any
door the alarm will sound.
• When the vehicle security alarm is armed,
the interior power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.
• The ultrasonic intrusion sensor (motion de-
tector) actively monitors your vehicle every
time you arm the security system. If you
prefer, you can turn off the ultrasonic intru-
sion sensor when arming the security sys-
tem. To do so, push the lock button on the
key fob three times within 15 seconds of
arming the system (while the vehicle secu-
rity light is flashing rapidly).
The vehicle security alarm is designed to
protect your vehicle; however, you can create
conditions where the system will give you a
false alarm. If one of the previously described
arming sequences has occurred, the vehicle
security alarm will arm regardless of whetheryou are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in
the vehicle and open a door, the alarm will
sound. If this occurs, disarm the vehicle
security alarm.
If the vehicle security alarm is armed and the
battery becomes disconnected, the vehicle
security alarm will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash, the horn will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
Security System Manual Override
The system will not arm if you lock the doors
using the manual door lock plunger.
