Essential Information
Consult  the  Table  of  Contents  to  determine
which  section  contains  the  information  you
desire.
Since  the  specification  of  your  vehicle
depends on the items of equipment ordered,
certain  descriptions  and  illustrations  may
differ from your vehicle's equipment.
The  detailed  Index  at  the  back  of  this  User
Guide  contains  a  complete  listing  of  all
subjects.
Symbols
Some  vehicle  components  have  colored
labels whose symbols indicate precautions to
be  observed  when  using  this  component.
Refer  to  “Warning  Lights  and  Messages”  in
“Getting  To  Know  Your  Instrument  Panel”
for  further  information  on  the  symbols  used
in your vehicle.
ROLLOVER WARNING 
Utility  vehicles  have  a  significantly  higher
rollover  rate  than  other  types  of  vehicles.
This  vehicle  has  a  higher  ground  clearanceand  a  higher  center  of  gravity  than  many
passenger  vehicles.  It  is  capable  of
performing better in a wide variety of off-road
applications. Driven in an unsafe manner, all
vehicles can go out of control. Because of the
higher center of gravity, if this vehicle is out
of  control  it  may  roll  over  when  some  other
vehicles may not.
Do  not  attempt  sharp  turns,  abrupt  maneu
-
vers, or other unsafe driving actions that can
cause  loss  of  vehicle  control.  Failure  to
operate  this  vehicle  safely  may  result  in  a
collision,  rollover  of  the  vehicle,  and  severe
or fatal injury. Drive carefully.
Rollover Warning Label
Failure  to  use  the  driver  and  passenger  seat
belts  provided  is  a  major  cause  of  severe  or
fatal  injury.  In  a  rollover  crash,  an  unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a
person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle up.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS 
This User Guide contains 
WARNINGS against
operating  procedures  that  could  result  in  a
collision,  bodily  injury  and/or  death.  It  also
contains  CAUTIONS   against  procedures  that
could result in damage to your vehicle. If you

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
KEYS 
Key Fob
Key FobYour  vehicle  uses  a  keyless  ignition  system.
The ignition system consists of a key fob with
Keyless Go  and a START/STOP push button
ignition  system.  The  Remote  Keyless  Entry
(RKE)  system  consists  of  a  key  fob  with  a
mechanical  key  and  Keyless  Enter-N-Go
feature (if equipped).
NOTE:
The  key  fob  may  not  be  detected  by  the
vehicle if it is located next to a mobile phone,
laptop  or  other  electronic  device;  these
devices  may  block  the  key  fob’s  wireless
signal.
The key fob allows you to lock or unlock the
doors  and  swing  gate  from  distances  up  to
approximately  66 ft  (20 m).  The  key  fob
does not need to be pointed at the vehicle to
activate the system. NOTE:
With  the  ignition  in  the  ON/RUN  position
and  with  the  vehicle  doors  open,  the  lock
button will be disabled, and only the unlock
button  will  be  enabled.  All  RKE  commands
will  be  disabled  once  the  vehicle  begins
moving at 2 mph (4 km/h) or above.
Backup Mode Starting
In  case  the  ignition  switch  does  not  change
with  the  push  of  a  button,  the  key  fob  may
have a low or fully depleted battery. A low key
fob battery can be verified by referring to the
instrument cluster,  which will display direc
-
tions to follow.
NOTE:
A low key fob battery condition may be indi -
cated by a message in the instrument cluster
display, or by the LED light on the key fob. If
the  LED  key  fob  light  no  longer  illuminates
from key fob button pushes, then the key fob
battery requires replacement.
1 — Key Release Button
2 — Unlock Button
3 — Lock Button
4 — Remote Start
 WARNING!
Push  the  Mechanical  Key  Release  Button
only  with  the  key  fob  facing  away  from
your body, especially your eyes and objects
that may be damaged, such as clothing.
 CAUTION!
The  electrical  components  inside  of  the  key
fob  may  be  damaged  if  the  key  fob  is
subjected  to  strong  electrical  shocks.  In
order  to  ensure  complete  efficiency  of  the
electronic  devices  inside  of  the  key  fob,
avoid exposing the key fob to direct sunlight.

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.

NOTE:
The  driver's  door key cylinder  cannot  arm
or disarm the vehicle security alarm.
When the vehicle security alarm is armed,
the  interior  power  door  lock  switches  will
not unlock the doors.
The  vehicle  security  alarm  is  designed  to
protect your vehicle. However, you can create
