KEYS
KEY FOB
Your vehicle uses a key start ignition system which
supports Remote Keyless Entry (RKE). The key fob
allows you to lock or unlock the doors 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. The key fob also contains
an integrated mechanical key, which can be
accessed by pushing the mechanical key release
button.
NOTE:The key fob may not be able to 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
Úpage 245.
Key Fob With Integrated Mechanical Key
To Lock/Unlock The Doors
Push and release the unlock button to unlock all
doors (on passenger vehicles and U.S. cargo
vehicles) or unlock the front two doors (Canada
cargo vehicles). To lock the doors, push and
release the lock button once. The doors can also
be locked and unlocked manually by using the
mechanical key.
When the doors are unlocked, the turn signals will
flash. When the doors are locked, the turn signals
will flash and the horn will chirp (if activated
through the Uconnect Settings Ú
page 79). If a
door is open when the lock button is pushed, the
turn signal lights will flash at an increased rate to
indicate that a door is still open.
Replacing The Battery In The Key Fob
The recommended replacement battery is
CR2032.

Key Fob Screw Location
3. Take out the battery case. Remove and
replace the battery observing its polarity.
4. Refit the battery case inside the key fob and turn the screw to lock it into place.
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 repurposed and reprogrammed 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 keys may be performed at an
authorized dealer. The VIN is required for
authorized dealer replacement of keys.
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.
WARNING!
The integrated key fob contains a coin cell
battery. Do not ingest the battery; there is a
chemical burn hazard. If the coin cell battery is
swallowed, it can cause severe internal burns
in just two hours and can lead to death.
If you think a battery may have been swal-
lowed or placed inside any part of the body,
seek immediate medical attention.
Keep new and used batteries away from chil -
dren. If the battery compartment does not
close securely, stop using the product and
keep it away from children.
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 position.

Overhead Console Storage
There is additional shelf storage above the front
sun visors.
Overhead Console Storage Location
USB CONTROL — IF EQUIPPED
The USB port is located on the instrument panel
below the Climate Controls. This feature allows an
external USB device to be plugged into the USB port.
Media Hub USB Port
NOTE:Charge unsupported devices with the Charge Only
USB ports. If an unsupported device is plugged into
a Media USB port, a message will display on the
touchscreen that the device is not supported by
the system.
POWER OUTLETS
Your vehicle is equipped with 12 Volt (15 Amp)
power outlets that can be used to power cellular
phones, small electronics and other low powered
electrical accessories. The power outlets are
labeled with either a “key” or a “battery” symbol to
indicate how the outlet is powered. Power outlets
labeled with a key symbol are powered when the
ignition is in the MAR (ACC/ON/RUN) position,
while the outlets labeled with a battery symbol are
connected directly to the battery and powered at
all times.
Driver And Front Passenger Power Outlets
The power outlets are located in between the
driver and front passenger seats.

Load Compartment Power Outlet
The Load Compartment Power Outlet is located on
the left side of the rear cargo compartment.
Depending on trim levels, the power outlet location
may vary.
Load Compartment Power Outlet Underhood Power Outlet Fuse Locations
CAUTION!
Do not connect devices with power higher than
180 Watts to the outlet. Using unsuitable
adapters may damage the outlet.
1 — #15 Fuse 15A Blue IP Power Outlet 12V (Key)
2 — #30 Fuse 15A Blue 2nd IP Power Outlet
12V (Battery)
3 — #85 Fuse 15A Blue Rear Power Outlet
12V (Key)
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.). Eventu
-
ally, if plugged in long enough, the vehicle's
battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the engine from
starting.
All accessories connected to the battery
powered outlets should be removed or turned
off when the vehicle is not in use. Leaving
devices connected overnight will drain the
vehicle’s battery.
Accessories that draw higher power (i.e.,
coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will
degrade 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 accessories still plugged in), the vehicle
must be driven a sufficient length of time to
allow the generator to recharge the vehicle's
battery.

can be minimized. If wind buffeting occurs, open
the front windows together to minimize the
buffeting.
