The three positions are OFF, ACC, and ON/
RUN. The fourth position is START, during
start RUN will illuminate. It also contains the
key fob and an emergency key, which stores
in the rear of the key fob.
The emergency key allows for entry into the

the key fob go dead. You can keep the emer-
gency key with you when valet parking.
To remove the emergency key, slide the me-
chanical latch on the backside of the key fob
sideways with your thumb and then pull the
key out with your other hand.

The Remote Keyless Entry system allows you
to lock or unlock all doors, and the tailgate as
well as activate the Panic Alarm from dis-
tances up to approximately 66 ft (20 m)
using a key fob with integrated key. The key
fob does not need to be pointed at the vehicle
to activate the system. Push and release the
lock button on the key fob to lock all doors,
and the tailgate. The turn signal lights will
flash and the horn will chirp to acknowledge
the signal.
NOTE:
Inserting the key fob with integrated key into
the ignition switch disables the system from
responding to any button pushes from that
key fob. Driving at speeds 5 mph (8 km/h)
and above disables the system from respond-
ing to all key fob buttons for all key fobs.

The Passive Entry system is an enhancement
to the vehicle’s Remote Keyless Entry system
and a feature of Keyless Enter-N-Go. This
feature allows you to lock and unlock the
vehicle’s door(s) without having to push the
key fob lock or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
•
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia”
in the Owner’s Manual at
www.mopar.com/
en-us/care/owners-manual.html (U.S.
Residents) or www.owners.mopar.ca
(Canadian Residents) for further information.
• If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it has been raining/snowing on the Passive Entry
door handle, the unlock sensitivity can be
affected, resulting in a slower response
time. • If the vehicle is unlocked by Passive Entry
and no door is opened within 60 seconds,
the vehicle will re-lock and if equipped will
arm the security alarm.
• The vehicles security alarm can be armed/ disarmed by pushing the passive entry key
fob lock/unlock buttons (if equipped).
• The key fob may not be able to be detected by the vehicle passive entry system if it is
located next to a mobile phone, laptop or
other electronic device; these devices may
block the key fob's wireless signal and pre-
vent the passive entry handle from locking/
unlocking the vehicle.
To Unlock From The Driver's Side:
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the driver door handle, grab the
front driver door handle to unlock the driver's
door automatically. The interior door panel
lock knob will raise when the door is un-
locked. NOTE:
If “Unlock All Doors 1st Press” is pro-
grammed, all doors will unlock when you grab
hold of the front driver’s door handle. To
select between “Unlock Driver Door 1st
Press” and “Unlock All Doors 1st Press,”

To Unlock From The Passenger Side:
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the passenger door handle, grab
the front passenger door handle to unlock all
doors automatically. The interior door panel
lock knob will raise when the door is un-
locked.
NOTE:
All doors will unlock when the front passen-
ger door handle is grabbed regardless of the
driver’s door unlock preference setting (“Un-
lock Driver Door 1st Press” or “Unlock All
Doors 1st Press”).
Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry
Key Fob In Vehicle:
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally
locking a Passive Entry key fob inside your
vehicle, the Passive Entry system is equipped
with an automatic door unlock feature which
will function if the ignition switch is in the
OFF position.
If one of the vehicle doors is open and the
door panel switch is used to lock the vehicle,
once all open doors have been closed the
vehicle checks the inside and outside of thevehicle for any valid Passive Entry key fobs. If
one of the vehicle's Passive Entry key fobs is
detected inside the vehicle, and no other
valid Passive Entry key fobs are detected
outside the vehicle, the Passive Entry System
automatically unlocks all vehicle doors and
chirps the horn three times (on the third
attempt ALL doors will lock and the Passive
Entry key fob can be locked in the vehicle).
To Lock The Vehicle’s Doors:
With one of the vehicle’s Passive Entry key
fobs within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver or
passenger front door handles, push the door
handle lock button to lock all doors.
Do NOT grab the door handle when pushing
the door handle lock button. This could un-
lock the door(s).
NOTE:
• After pushing the door handle lock button,
you must wait two seconds before you can
lock or unlock the doors, using either Pas-
sive Entry door handle. This is done to allow
you to check if the vehicle is locked by
pulling the door handle, without the vehicle
reacting and unlocking.
• The Passive Entry system will not operate if the key fob battery is dead.
