Proceed in reverse order to reassemble the key
fob.
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.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.

NOTE:

When having the Engine 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.
For Quadrifoglio models, if you need a
replacement key fob, contact an authorized
dealer.
ENGINE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The Engine Immobilizer system prevents
unauthorized vehicle operation by disabling the
engine. The system does not need to be armed 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 operation.
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 239.
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
swallowed or placed inside any part of the
body, seek immediate medical attention.
Keep new and used batteries away from
children. If the battery compartment does
not close securely, stop using the product
and keep it away from children.
CAUTION!

The battery replacement operation must be done
with care, in order not to damage the key fob.

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.
CAUTION!
The Engine Immobilizer system is not
compatible with some aftermarket Remote
Start systems. Use of these systems may
result in vehicle starting problems and loss of
security protection.

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.START/STOP Ignition 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 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 situation, a backup
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 81.
With the keyless ignition in the ACC position, if
30 minutes pass with the gear selector in
PARK and the engine off, the 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.
WARNING!
When exiting the vehicle, always make sure
the ignition is in the OFF position, 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
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 keyless push
button ignition in the ON/RUN position. 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
buildup 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.

The ignition must be placed in the ACC position
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
Trunk closed
Hazard switch off
Brake switch inactive (brake pedal not

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

REMOTE START COMFORT SYSTEMS —
I
F EQUIPPED
When Remote Start is activated, the heated
steering wheel and front heated seat features will
automatically activate when ambient
temperature is less than 39°F (4°C). These
features will stay on through the duration of

poisonous and can cause serious injury or
death when inhaled.
Keep key fobs away from children. Operation
of the Remote Start system, windows, door
locks or other controls could cause serious
injury or death.

out, operating the interior handle will not open
the door. To open the door, the outside handle
must be used. The door central locking/unlocking
buttons are not deactivated when the
Child-Protection Door Lock system 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 trunk lid
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
Information and Entertainment System
Owner’s Manual Supplement for Passive Entry
settings.
The key fob may not 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 relock 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 trunk lid automatically.
