GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
In this section, you will find important informa-
tion to help you become familiar with the
features needed to operate your vehicle, and
how they function.
KEYS
Key Fob
Your vehicle is equipped with a key fob which
supports Passive Entry, Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE), Remote Start (if equipped), and remote
liftgate operation. The key fob allows you to
lock or unlock the doors and liftgate. The key
fob does not need to be pointed at the vehicle
to activate the system. The key fob also
contains an emergency key, which is stored
inside the key fob.

NOTE:

The key fob’s wireless signal may be
blocked if the key fob is located next to a
mobile phone, laptop, or other electronic
device. This may result in poor perfor -
mance.
With ignition in the ON position and the
vehicle moving at 2 mph (4 km/h), all RKE commands are disabled. Key Fob
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
Ú
page 268.
To Lock/Unlock The Doors And Liftgate
Push and release the unlock button on the key
fob once to unlock the driver’s door or twice
within one second to unlock all doors and the
liftgate. To lock all the doors and the liftgate,
push the lock button once.
The current unlock setting can be changed
through the radio system menu, so that the
system unlocks:
All doors on the first push of the key fob
unlock button.
The driver door on the first push of the key
fob unlock button.
The liftgate "independently" or "with doors". When the doors are locked/unlocked, the turn
signals will flash and the illuminated entry
system will be activated.

NOTE:

If one or more doors are open when the lock
button is pushed, or the liftgate is open, the
doors will lock. The doors will unlock again
automatically if the key is left inside the
passenger compartment, otherwise the doors
will stay locked.
Flashing of the turn signals upon locking/
unlocking the doors, and activation of the
courtesy light upon unlocking the doors, can
be activated or deactivated through the radio
system. For further information, refer to the
Information and Entertainment System
Owner’s Manual Supplement.
Opening The Liftgate
Rapidly push the button on the key fob twice to
open the liftgate. The turn signals will flash to
indicate that the liftgate has been opened.
Replacing The Battery In The Key Fob
The recommended replacement battery is one
CR2032 battery.

NOTE:

Customers are recommended to use a
battery obtained from Mopar. Aftermarket
coin battery dimensions may not meet the
original OEM coin battery dimensions.

Locking The Doors With A Depleted Battery
Proceed as follows to lock the doors if the
vehicle battery is depleted:
1. With the doors unlocked insert the emer-
gency key from the key fob or a screwdriver
into the door lock manual release lock
cylinder.
Door Lock Manual Release Lock Cylinder
2. Turn the manual release lock cylinder clockwise for the right door locks or coun -
terclockwise for the left door locks.
3. Remove the key/screwdriver from the manual release lock.
Proceed in one of the following ways to realign
the door lock device (only when the battery
charge has been restored):
Push the lock button on the key fob
Push the unlock button on the door panel
Unlock the driver’s door lock with the emer -
gency key
Operate the internal door handle

NOTE:

For the rear doors, if the Child Safety Locks are
engaged, and the previously described locking
procedure is carried out, operating the internal
handle will not open the door. Instead, it will
only realign the lock release device. To open
the door, the outside handle must be used.
The door central locking/unlocking buttons
are not deactivated when the emergency lock
is engaged.
Passive Entry System
The Passive Entry system is an enhancement
to the vehicle’s key fob. This feature allows you
to lock and unlock the vehicle’s door(s) and
liftgate without having to push the key fob lock
or unlock buttons.

NOTE:

Passive Entry may be programmed on/off
through the radio screen. Refer to the Infor -
mation and Entertainment System Owner’s
Manual Supplement for Passive Entry
settings.
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 system from
locking/unlocking the vehicle.
If wearing gloves, 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 Vehicle Security system.
To Unlock From The Driver Or Passenger Side
With a valid Passive Entry key fob close to the
door handle, grab the handle to unlock the
vehicle. Grabbing the driver’s door handle will
unlock the driver door automatically. Grabbing
the passenger door handle will unlock all
doors and the liftgate automatically.

External Liftgate Release Button (Vehicles With Passive Entry)
Frequency Operated Button Integrated Key
(FOBIK-Safe)
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.
The vehicle will
not unlock the doors if an
unauthorized key fob has been detected close
to the outside of the vehicle.
If the Passive Entry function is disabled
through the radio screen, the protections to
avoid accidentally leaving the key fob inside
the vehicle are deactivated.

you must wait two seconds before you can
lock or unlock the doors, using either
Passive Entry door handle. This is done to
allow you to check if the vehicle is locked by
pulling the door handle without the vehicle
unlocking.
The Passive Entry system will not operate if
the key fob battery is depleted.
The vehicle doors and liftgate can also be
locked by pushing the lock button on the
key fob or on the interior door lock.

Do not place anything on the seat or seat -
back that insulates against heat, such as
a blanket or cushion. This may cause the
seat heater to overheat. Sitting in a seat
that has been overheated could cause
serious burns due to the increased
