Programming And Requesting Additional
Key Fobs
Programming the key fob may be performed by
an authorized dealer.

NOTE:

Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle,
it cannot be re-purposed and repro-
grammed to another vehicle.
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
Ú
page 268.
NOTE:

When having the Engine Immobilizer
system serviced, bring all vehicle keys with
you to an authorized dealer.
For Quadrifoglio models, if you need a
replacement key fob, contact an authorized
dealer.
ENGINE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM
The Engine Immobilizer system prevents unau-
thorized use of the vehicle by disabling engine
starting. The system does not need to be
enabled or activated. Operation is automatic,
regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or
unlocked.
The system uses a key fob, keyless push
button ignition and a Radio Frequency (RF)
receiver to prevent unauthorized vehicle oper
-
ation. Therefore, only key fobs that are
programmed to the vehicle can be used to
start and operate the vehicle. The system will
shut the engine off in two seconds if an invalid
key fob is used to start the engine.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON/RUN
position, the vehicle security light will turn on
for three seconds for a bulb check. If the light
remains on after the bulb check, it indicates
that there is a problem with the electronics. In
addition, if the light begins to flash after the
bulb check, it indicates that someone used an
invalid key fob to start the engine. Either of
these conditions will result in the engine being
shut off after two seconds. If the vehicle security light turns on during
normal vehicle operation (vehicle running for
longer than 10 seconds), it indicates that
there is a fault in the electronics. Should this
occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as
possible by an authorized dealer.
All of the key fobs provided with your new
vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle
electronics.

NOTE:

A key fob that has not been programmed is
also considered an invalid key
Ú

page 268.
IGNITION SWITCH
Keyless Push Button 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 START/STOP ignition button has several
operating modes. These modes are OFF, ACC,
and ON/RUN.
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.
CAUTION!
The Engine Immobilizer system is not
compatible with some aftermarket remote
starting systems. Use of these systems may
result in vehicle starting problems and loss
of security protection.
21_GU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 20

Keyless Ignition START/STOP Button
The push button ignition can be placed in the
following modes:
OFF
The engine is stopped
Steering is locked
Some electrical devices (e.g. central
locking, alarm, etc.) are still available
ACC
Engine is not started
Some electrical devices are available (e.g.
power windows)
ON/RUN
The engine will start (when foot is on the
brake pedal)
All the electrical devices are available (e.g.
climate controls, etc.)
If the ignition switch does not change the
mode by pushing the 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. Proceed as follows:
1. Lift the front armrest.
2. Lay the key fob on the indicated spot in the
bottom of the center console, positioning
the key fob as shown in the following
image, while pushing the START/STOP
ignition button to start the ignition.
Key Fob Placement Location

NOTE:

For more information on proper engine
starting procedures, see
Ú
page 86.
With the keyless ignition in the ACC position,
if 30 minutes pass with the gear selector in
PARK and the engine stopped, the keyless
ignition will automatically reset to the OFF
position.
When opening the driver's door with the
ignition in the ACC position (engine not
running), a chime will sound to remind you
to place the ignition in the OFF position. In addition to the chime, the message will
display “Ignition Or Accessory On” in the
cluster
Ú

page 268.
WARNING!
When exiting the vehicle, always make
sure the ignition is in the OFF mode,
remove the key fob from the vehicle, and
lock your vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unat -
tended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seri -
ously 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 chil -
dren, 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.

REMOTE START — IF EQUIPPED
This system uses the key fob to start
the engine conveniently from
outside the vehicle while still main-
taining security.

NOTE:

Obstructions between the vehicle and key fob
may reduce this range
Ú
page 268.
How To Use Remote Start
Push the Remote Start button on the key fob
twice within five seconds. The vehicle doors will lock, the turn signals will flash twice, and
the horn will chirp twice. Pushing the Remote
Start button a third time shuts the engine off.

NOTE:

With Remote Start, the engine will only run
for 15 minutes.
Remote Start can only be used twice.
If an engine fault is present or fuel level is
low, the vehicle will start and then shut
down in 10 seconds.
The park lamps will turn on and remain on
during Remote Start mode.
For security, power window operation is
disabled when the vehicle is in the Remote
Start mode.
The ignition must be placed in the ACC posi
-
tion before the Remote Start sequence can
be repeated for a third cycle.
All of the following conditions must be met
before the engine will Remote Start:
Gear selector in PARK
Doors closed
Hood closed
Liftgate closed
Hazard switch off
Brake switch inactive (brake pedal not
pushed)
Battery at an acceptable charge level
PANIC button not pushed
System not disabled from previous remote
start event
Vehicle Security system indicator flashing
Ignition in OFF position
Fuel level meets minimum requirement
Vehicle Security system is not signaling an
intrusion
Malfunction Indicator Light is not illumi -
nated
To Exit Remote Start Mode
To drive the vehicle after starting the Remote
Start system, either push and release the
unlock button on the key fob to unlock the
doors, or unlock the vehicle using Passive
Entry via the door handles, and disarm the
vehicle security system (if equipped). Then,
prior to the end of the 15 minute cycle, push
and release the START/STOP ignition button
while pressing the brake pedal.
The Remote Start system will turn the engine
off with another push and release of the
Remote Start button on the key fob, or if the
engine is allowed to run for the entire
15 minute cycle.
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!
Do not start or run an engine in a closed
garage or confined area. Exhaust gas
contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is
odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide
is poisonous and can cause serious injury
or death when inhaled.
Keep key fobs away from children. Opera -
tion of the Remote Start system, windows,
door locks or other controls could cause
serious injury or death.
