VEHICLE CHANGES / ALTERATIONS
Accessories Purchased By The Owner
If you decide to install electrical accessories that require a permanent electrical supply (e.g. radio, satellite anti-theft system, etc.) or accessories that in any
case drain the electrical supply after purchasing the vehicle, contact an authorized dealer. Dealer personnel will check whether the vehicles's electrical
system is able to withstand the load required or whether it needs to be integrated with a more powerful battery.

NOTE:
Use caution when adding additional spoilers, alloy wheel rims, or non-standard wheel hubs: they could reduce the ventilation of the brakes and affect efficiency under
sharp and repeated braking, or on long descents. Make sure that nothing obstructs the pedal (mats, etc.).
FCA US LLC shall not be liable for damage caused by the installation of accessories either not supplied or recommended by FCA US LLC and/or not installed in
compliance with the provided instructions.

Installing Electrical/Electronic Devices

FCA US LLC authorizes the installation of transceivers provided that installation is carried out at a specialized center, in compliance with manufacturer's specifications.

NOTE:
Local authorities may not allow the vehicle on the road if devices that modify the features of the vehicle have been installed. This also may void the warranty
in relation to faults caused by the change either directly or indirectly related to it.
FCA US LLC shall not be liable for damage caused by the installation of accessories either not supplied or recommended by FCA US LLC and/or not installed
in compliance with the provided instructions.
Radio Transmitters And Mobile Phones

Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones, CB radios, amateur radio etc.) cannot be used inside the vehicle unless a separate antenna is mounted externally.

In this section, you will find important information
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 performance.
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 directions to follow

Ú
page 259.
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 automati
-
cally if the key fob 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.
Key Left Vehicle Feature — If Equipped
If a valid key fob is no longer detected inside
the vehicle while the vehicle’s ignition system is
in the ON/RUN or START position, the message
“Key Fob Has Left The Vehicle” will be shown in
the instrument cluster display along with an
interior 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.

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 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 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

Ú
page 259.

NOTE:
A key fob that has not been programmed is also
considered an invalid key.
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
starting systems. Use of these systems may
result in vehicle starting problems and loss of
security protection.

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.

VEHICLE SECURITY
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security system monitors the vehicle
doors, hood, liftgate, and the keyless push button
ignition for unauthorized operation. It also
monitors movement inside the passenger
compartment (volumetric protection — if
equipped), cutting of battery cables, and
unexpected lifting/tilting of the vehicle (anti-lift
protection — if equipped).
While the Vehicle Security system is armed,
interior switches for door locks are disabled.
If something triggers the alarm, the Vehicle
Security system will provide the following audible
and visible signals:
The horn will pulse
The turn signals will flash
The Vehicle Security Light in the instrument
cluster will flash

NOTE:
The Vehicle Security system is activated by the
Engine Immobilizer system, which is automati-
cally activated when you get out of the vehicle
with the key fob and lock the doors.

When the Vehicle Security system is armed,
the interior power door lock switches will not
unlock the doors.
The Vehicle Security system is designed to
protect your vehicle. However, you can create
conditions where the system will give you a false
alarm. If one of the previously described arming
sequences has occurred, the Vehicle Security
system will arm, regardless of whether you are in
the vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicle and
open a door, the alarm will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the Vehicle Security system.
If the Vehicle Security system is armed and the
battery becomes disconnected, the Vehicle
Security system will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the Vehicle Security system.
