KEYS
Key Fob
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. The ignition
system consists of a key fob with Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) and a START/STOP push button ignition system. The
Remote Keyless Entry system consists of a key fob and
Keyless Enter-N-Go feature.
NOTE:
• The key fob may not be found if it is located next to amobile phone, laptop or other electronic device; these
devices may block the key fob’s wireless signal.
• If your vehicle is equipped with a Wireless Charging Pad, the key fob may not be found if it is placed within 15 cm
(150 mm) of the pad. Refer to “Wireless Charging Pad—If
Equipped” in this chapter for further information.
The key fob allows you to lock or unlock all doors, tailgate,
and the RamBox (if equipped) as well as activate the Panic
Alarm from distances up to approximately 66 ft (20 m) using
a handheld key fob. The key fob does not need to be pointed
at the vehicle to activate the system. NOTE:
• In the ON/RUN position, all key fob buttons will work
until the vehicle reaches 2 mph (4 km/h).
• The key fob should not be placed next to the wireless charging pad (if equipped).

The engine only runs in the ON/RUN ignition position or
from a remote start request.
In case the ignition switch does not change with the push of
a button, the key fob may have a low or dead battery. In this
situation, a back up method can be used to operate the igni-
tion switch. Put the nose side (side opposite of the emer -
gency key) of the key fob against the START/STOP ignition
button and push to operate the ignition switch. Back Up Starting Method
NOTE:
The key fob may not be able to be detected by the vehicle
keyless-go 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 prevent the Keyless
Enter-N-Go system from starting the vehicle.
NOTE:
Refer to "Starting The Engine" in "Starting And Operating"
for further information.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in a
location accessible to children, and do not leave the
ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go in the ON/RUN mode. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle.
• Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up may cause
serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation for thieves. Always
remove key fob from the vehicle and lock all doors when
leaving the vehicle unattended.
WARNING! (Continued)

Power Door Locks — If Equipped
The power door lock switches are on each front door trim
panel. Use these switches to lock or unlock the doors.
NOTE:
The key fob may not be able to be detected by the vehicle
Keyless Enter-N-Go 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 prevent the Keyless
Enter-N-Go system from starting the vehicle.Power Door Lock Switches
If you push the power door lock switch while the key fob is
located inside the vehicle, and any front door is open, the
power locks will not operate. This prevents you from acci -
dentally locking your key fob in the vehicle. Removing the
key fob or closing the door will allow the locks to operate. A
chime will sound if the key fob is in the ignition switch and
a door is open, as a reminder to remove the key fob.
• 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 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 of a vehicle equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child
could operate power windows, other controls, or move
the vehicle.

Power Side Steps — If Equipped
The Power Side Steps will extend a step for easier entry and
exit of the vehicle.
When configured for “Auto” mode, the Power Side Steps
will deploy when any of the doors are opened, or when the
deploy setting is activated through the touchscreen. When
configured for “Store” mode, the steps will stay in their posi-
tion but can also be deployed manually through the radio.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 5 mph (8 km/h), or if the retract
setting is selected in the touchscreen, the steps will retract.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for additional
information.
Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry
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:
• Passive Entry may be programmed on/off. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further informa -
tion.
• 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 prevent the passive entry
handle from locking/unlocking the vehicle.

When the vehicle is turned off, be sure to unplug any equip-
ment as to not drain the battery of the vehicle. All accessories
connected to the outlet(s) should be removed or turned off
when the vehicle is not in use to protect the battery against
discharge.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
• Only devices designed for use in this type of outlet should be inserted into any 12 Volt outlet.
• Do not touch with wet hands.
• Close the lid when not in use and while driving the vehicle.
• If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric shock and failure.
CAUTION!
• Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power from the vehicle's battery, even when not in use (i.e.,
cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long
enough, the vehicle's battery will discharge sufficiently
to degrade battery life and/or prevent the engine from
starting.
• Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.), will discharge the battery
even more quickly. Only use these intermittently and
with greater caution.
• After the use of high power draw accessories, or long periods of the vehicle not being started (with accesso -
ries still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a suffi -
cient length of time to allow the generator to recharge
the vehicle's battery.

Power Inverter — If Equipped
If equipped, a 115 Volt (400 Watts Maximum) inverter may
be located inside the center console towards the right hand
side, just under the Wireless Charging Pad (if equipped).
This inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and
other low power devices requiring power up to 400 Watts.
Certain high-end video game consoles exceed this power
limit, as will most power tools.Center Console Power Inverter Outlet There is also a second 115 Volt (400 Watts Maximum) power
inverter located on the rear of the center console. This
inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and other low
power devices requiring power up to 400 Watts. Certain
high-end video game consoles exceed this power limit, as
will most power tools.
All power inverters are designed with built-in overload
protection. If the power rating of 400 Watts is exceeded, the
power inverter shuts down. Once the electrical device has
been removed from the outlet the inverter should reset.
