In this situation, a back up method can be used
to operate the ignition switch. Put the nose side
of the key fob against the START/STOP ignition
button, and push to operate the ignition switch.
Backup Starting Method
NOTE:
Improper  disposal  of  key  fob  batteries  may
be harmful to the environment. Please see an
authorized dealer for proper battery disposal.
To Unlock The Doors And Swing Gate
Push  and  release  the  key  fob  unlock button
once to unlock the driver's door only, or twice
to unlock all the doors and swing gate. When
the key fob unlock button is pushed, the Illu -
minated  Entry  will  initiate,  and  the  turn
signal lights will flash twice.
To Lock The Doors And Swing Gate
Push and release the lock button on the key
fob  to  lock  all  doors.  The  turn  signals  will
flash,  and  the  horn  will  chirp  once  to
acknowledge the lock signal.
Request For Additional Key Fobs  
NOTE:
Only  key  fobs  that  are  programmed  to  the
vehicle  electronics can  be  used to start  and
operate  the  vehicle.  Once  a  key  fob  is
programmed  to  a  vehicle,  it  cannot  be
programmed to any other vehicle.
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at
an  authorized  dealer.  This  procedure
consists  of  programming  a  blank  key  fob  to
the  vehicle  electronics.  A  blank  key  fob  is
one that has never been programmed. NOTE:
When  having  the  Sentry  Key  Immobilizer
System  serviced,  bring  all  vehicle  keys
with you to an authorized dealer.
Keys  must  be  ordered  to  the  correct  key
cut to match the vehicle locks.
IGNITION SWITCH  
Keyless Enter-N-Go — Ignition
This feature allows the  driver  to  operate  the
ignition switch with  the push of a  button as
long  as  the  key  fob  is  in  the  passenger
compartment.
The Keyless Push Button Ignition has several
operating  modes  that  are  labeled  and  will
illuminate  when  in  position.  These  modes
are OFF, ACC, RUN, and START.
NOTE:
In  case  the  ignition  switch  does  not  change
with  the  push  of  a  button,  the  key  fob  may
have a low or depleted battery. In this situa
-
tion,  a  back  up  method  can  be  used  to
operate the ignition switch. Put the nose side
of the key fob (side with the mechanical key)
against the START/STOP ignition button and
push to operate the ignition switch.
 WARNING!
Always  remove  the  key  fobs  from  the
vehicle  and  lock  all  doors  when  leaving
the vehicle unattended.
Always remember to place the ignition in
the OFF mode.

The temperature can be displayed in U.S.
or  Metric  units  by  selecting  the  U.S./
Metric  customer-programmable  feature.
Refer  to  the  “Uconnect  Settings”  in
“Multimedia”  in  the  Owner’s  Manual  for
further information.
To provide you with maximum comfort in the
Automatic  mode  during  cold  start-ups,  the
blower  fan  will  remain  on  low  until  the
engine warms up. The blower will increase in
speed and transition into Auto mode.
Manual Operation Override
This  system  offers  a  full  complement  of
manual override features. The AUTO symbol
in  the  front  ATC  display  will  be  turned  off
when the system is being used in the manual
mode.
Operating Tips 
Summer Operation
The  engine  cooling  system  must  be
protected  with  a  high-quality  antifreeze
coolant  to  provide  proper  corrosion  protec -
tion  and  to  protect  against  engine  over -
heating.  OAT  coolant  (conforming  to
MS.90032) is recommended.
Winter Operation
To  ensure  the  best  possible  heater  and
defroster performance, make sure the engine
cooling  system  is  functioning  properly  and
the  proper  amount,  type,  and  concentration
of coolant is used. Use of the Air Recircula -
tion  mode  during  Winter  months  is  not
recommended, because it may cause window
fogging.
Vacation/Storage  
Before you store your vehicle,  or keep  it  out
of  service  (i.e.,  vacation)  for  two  weeks  or
more, run the air conditioning system at idle
for  about  five  minutes,  in  fresh  air  with  the
blower  setting  on  high.  This  will  ensure
adequate system lubrication to minimize the
possibility  of  compressor  damage  when  the
system is started again.
Window Fogging 
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in
mild,  rainy,  and/or  humid  weather.  To  clear
the windows, select Defrost or Mix mode and
increase the front  blower  speed.  Do  not  use
the Recirculation mode without A/C for long
periods, as fogging may occur.
Outside Air Intake
Make  sure the  air  intake, located  directly in
front  of  the  windshield,  is  free  of  obstruc -
tions, such as leaves. Leaves collected in the
air  intake  may  reduce  airflow,  and  if  they
enter the plenum, they could plug the water
drains. In Winter  months, make sure the air
intake is clear of ice, slush, and snow.
 CAUTION!
Failure to  follow  these cautions  can  cause
damage to the heating elements:
Use care when washing the inside of the
rear window. Do not use abrasive window
cleaners  on  the  interior  surface  of  the
window.  Use  a  soft  cloth  and  a  mild
washing  solution,  wiping  parallel  to  the
heating elements. Labels  can be peeled
off after soaking with warm water.
Do not use scrapers, sharp  instruments,
or abrasive window cleaners on the inte-
rior surface of the window.
Keep all objects a safe distance from the
window.

an  Auto-Down  feature.  Push  the  window
switch down, for a short period of time, and
release  and  the  window  will  go  down  auto
-
matically.

 WARNING!
Never leave children unattended in a vehicle,
and  do  not  let  children  play  with  power
windows. Do not leave the  key  fob  in or  near
the  vehicle,  or  in  a  location  accessible  to
children. Occupants, particularly unattended
children,  can  become  entrapped  by  the
windows  while  operating  the  power  window
switches.  Such  entrapment  may  result  in
serious injury or death.

Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) — If Equipped
The  Gear  Shift  Indicator  (GSI)  system  is
enabled  on  vehicles  when  automatic  trans-
mission  is  in  manual  shift  mode.  The  GSI
provides  the  driver  with  a  visual  indication
when the recommended gear shift point has
been  reached.  This  indication  notifies  the
driver that changing gears will allow a reduc -
tion in fuel consumption. When the up shift
indicator is shown on the instrument cluster
display,  the  GSI  is  advising  the  driver  to
engage  a  higher  gear.  When  the  down  shift
indicator is shown on the display, the GSI is
advising the driver to engage a lower gear.
The GSI remains illuminated until the driver
changes  gear,  or  the  driving  conditions
return to a situation where changing gears is
not required to improve fuel consumption.
Diesel Displays
When  the  appropriate  conditions  exist,  the
following messages display in the instrument
cluster display:

Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Messages 
This engine meets all required diesel engine
emissions standards. To achieve these emis -
sions  standards,  your  vehicle  is  equipped
with  a  state-of-the-art  engine  and  exhaust
system.  These  systems  are  seamlessly  inte -
grated into your vehicle and managed by the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The PCM
manages  engine  combustion  to  allow  the
exhaust  system’s  catalyst  to  trap  and  burn
Particulate  Matter  (PM)  pollutants,  with  no
input or interaction on your part.
 WARNING!
A hot exhaust system can start a fire if you
park  over  materials  that  can  burn.  Such
materials  might  be  grass  or  leaves  coming
into  contact  with  your  exhaust  system.  Do
not  park  or  operate  your  vehicle  in  areas
where  your  exhaust  system  can  contact
anything that can burn.
 CAUTION!
Always drive  at  a  speed appropriate  to the
traffic  conditions,  the  weather  and  traffic
regulations.  The  engine  may  be  switched
off even if the warning light is on: repeated
interruptions  of  the  regeneration  process
could  cause  an  early  deterioration  of
engine  oil.  For  this  reason  it  is  always
advisable  to  wait  for  the  symbol  to  go  off
before turning off the engine, following the
instructions  above.  Do  not  complete  the
DPF regeneration process when the vehicle
is stopped.
