GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
KEYS
KEY FOB
Your vehicle is equipped with a key fob which
supports Passive Entry, Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE), Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ (if equipped), and
Remote Start (if equipped). The key fob allows you
to lock or unlock all doors, as well as activate the
Panic Alarm 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 used by pushing
the mechanical key release button.
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 performance.
If your vehicle is equipped with a Wireless
Charging Pad, the key fob may not be detected
if it is placed within 6 inches (15 cm) of the pad
Úpage 47.
With the ignition in the ON position and the
vehicle moving at 2 mph (4 km/h), all RKE
commands are disabled.

Figure 1 - Keyless Ignition Key Fob Figure 2 - Keyless Ignition 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 display, which will
display directions to follow

chime. An exterior audible and visual alert will also
be activated to warn the driver. The vehicle’s horn will rapidly chirp three times
along with a single flash of the vehicle’s exterior
lights.
NOTE:
The doors have to be open and then closed in
order for the vehicle to check for the presence of
a key fob; the Key Left Vehicle feature will not
activate until all of the doors are closed.
These alerts will not be activated in situations
where the vehicle’s engine is left running with
the key fob inside.
Replacing The Battery In The Key Fob
The 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.

Perchlorate Material — special handling may apply.
See

tion lamps) for whichever time duration is set
between 0, 30, 60 or 90 seconds. Passive Entry

Lumbar Support — If Equipped
This feature allows you to increase or decrease the
amount of lumbar support. The lumbar control
knob is located on the rear upper outboard side of
the driver's seatback. Rotate the control forward to
increase and rearward to decrease the desired
amount of lumbar support.
Suspension Seat — If Equipped
The seat is equipped with a mechanical spring
system and hydraulic shock absorber to ensure
maximum comfort and safety. The system of
springs also effectively absorbs impact from
uneven road surfaces. Damper Weight Adjustment
Use the weight adjustment knob, located on the
inboard side of the seat, to set the required setting
based on body weight, with settings between 88 lb
(40 kg) and 286 lb (130 kg).

Weight Adjustment Knob
Swivel Seat — If Equipped
The swivel seat lever is located at the lower front
inboard side of the seat. The seat may be turned

instrument cluster display.
If the driver or the passenger seats are not locked
in the facing forward position before the first
vehicle movement, shifting out of park is not
allowed until the seats are both locked in the
facing forward position. When the seats are not in
the right position and the first vehicle movement
after ignition START is attempted, a chime and a
message will appear in the instrument cluster
display. Rotate and lock the swivel seats in the
correct position before trying again.
Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that
the shoulder belt is no longer resting against
your chest. In a collision, you could slide under
the seat belt and be seriously or even fatally
injured. Use the recliner only when the vehicle
is parked.

If the driver or the passenger seats are not locked
in the facing forward position during movement
of the vehicle, a message will appear in the
instrument cluster display and an intermittent
chime will sound until key-off or until the swivel
seats are locked in the facing forward position.
Stop and move the swivel seats in the correct
position before proceeding.
If a fault is present in the system and it is not
possible to check the correct position of the swivel
seats, a message and the generic warning light
appears in the instrument cluster display to inform
about the failure. In these conditions, check the
status of the swivel seats and do not drive the
vehicle until the swivel seats are locked in the
facing forward position.
HEATED SEATS — IF EQUIPPED

used as a document support surface. To use the
fold-down tray, grab the pull tab and lower the tray.

Lowering The Fold-Down Tray

WARNING!
Persons who are unable to feel pain to the
skin because of advanced age, chronic illness,
diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication,
alcohol use, exhaustion or other physical
condition must exercise care when using the
seat heater. It may cause burns even at low
temperatures, especially if used for long
periods of time.
Do not place anything on the seat or seatback
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 over -
heated could cause serious burns due to the
increased surface temperature of the seat.
WARNING!

AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM HEADLAMP
C
ONTROL — IF EQUIPPED
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
system provides increased forward lighting at night
by automating high beam control through the use
of a digital camera mounted on the windshield.
This camera detects vehicle specific light and
automatically switches from high beams to low
beams until the approaching vehicle is out of view.
NOTE:
The multifunction lever must be in the high
beam position in order for the Automatic High
Beam Headlamp Control to activate.
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
can be turned on or off through Uconnect
Settings Ú page 120.
Broken, muddy, or obstructed headlights and
taillights of vehicles in the field of view will
cause headlights to remain on longer (closer to
the vehicle). Also, dirt, film, and other obstruc -
tions on the windshield or camera lens will
cause the system to function improperly.
When set to AUTO, the system automatically
turns the headlights on or off based on ambient
light levels.
FLASH-TO-PASS
You can signal another vehicle with your headlights
by lightly pulling the multifunction lever toward you.
This will cause the high beam headlights to turn on,
and remain on, until the lever is released.
AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS — IF EQUIPPED
To turn on the automatic headlights, turn the end
of the multifunction lever to the AUTO position. To
turn off the automatic headlights, turn the end of
the multifunction lever back to the O (off) position.
PARKING LIGHTS

These lights can be turned on, with the ignition in the

When this feature is selected, the driver can
choose to have the headlights remain on for a
preset period of time after the engine is turned off.
Activation
To activate the delay feature, place the ignition in
the OFF position while the headlights are still on.
Then, rotate the multifunction lever to the O (off)
position within two minutes. The delay interval
begins when the headlight switch is turned from
O (off) to the low beam position. If the headlight
switch is in AUTO position and headlights were on
before the ignition is OFF, the delay interval begins
automatically.
Deactivation
The feature is disabled by turning on the
headlights, the parking lights or by placing the
ignition in the RUN position. If you shut off the
lights before the ignition is turned on, they will turn
off in the normal manner.
Headlights with ignition in the OFF position.
With the ignition in the OFF position, the headlights
can be switched on for a maximum time of
8 minutes. To turn on the headlights with the
ignition in the OFF position, turn the end of the
multifunction lever to the headlight position.
