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), Remote
Start (if equipped), and Panic button operation.
The key fob allows you to lock or unlock the doors
and liftgate 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 emergency key, which is
stored in the rear of the key fob.
NOTE:
The key fob’s wireless signal may be blocked if the
key f ob
is located next to a mobile phone, laptop,
or other electronic device. This may result in poor
performance.
Keyless Ignition Key Fob

NOTE:
In case the ignition switch does not change with
the p u
sh 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 349.
To Unlock/Lock The Doors And Liftgate
Push and release the unlock button on the key fob
once to unlock the driver’s door, or twice within five
seconds to unlock all the doors and the liftgate. To
lock all the doors and the liftgate, push the lock
button once.
When the doors are unlocked, the turn signals will
flash

and the illuminated entry system will be
activated. When the doors are locked, the turn
signals will flash and the horn will chirp.
All doors can be programmed to unlock on the first
push of
the unlock button within Uconnect Settings
Ú page 133.

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 www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/
perchlorate for further information.
Do not touch the battery terminals that are on
the back housing or the printed circuit board.

1. Remove the emergency key (2) by sliding the emerge
ncy key release (1) on the back of the
key fob and pulling the emergency key out
with your other hand.

REMOTE START FRONT DEFROST
A
CTIVATION — IF EQUIPPED
When Remote Start is active, and the outside
ambient temperature is 40°F (4.4°C) or below, the
system will automatically activate front defrost for
15 minutes or less. The time is dependent on the
ambie n

t temperature. Once the timer expires, the
system will automatically adjust the settings
depending on ambient conditions. See “Remote
Start Comfort Systems — If Equipped” in the next
section for detailed operation.
REMOTE START COMFORT SYSTEMS —
I
F EQUIPPED
When Remote Start is activated, the front and rear
defrost will automatically turn on in cold weather.

WARNING!

Do not start or run an engine in a closed garage
or confined area. Exhaust gas contains Carbon
Monoxide (CO) which is odorless and colorless.
Carbon Monoxide is 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.

AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM HEADLAMP
C
ONTROL — IF EQUIPPED
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
system provides increased forward lighting at night
by automatically controlling the high beams
through the use of a camera mounted on the
inside rearview mirror. 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 to activate the Automatic
High Beams.
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
can be turned on or off using the Uconnect
system
Ú page 133.
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
c ause

the system to function improperly.
When set to AUTO, the system automatically turns
the he
adlights 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.

off, move the headlight switch out of the AUTO
position.
NOTE:
The ignition must be in the ON/RUN or START
positi on
before the headlights will come on in the
automatic mode.
Dusk Sensor
There is an infrared LED sensor that works with the
rain sensor, located on the windshield. It detects
changes in light intensity outside the vehicle,
based on the sensitivity of light set by using the
menu on the display or on the Uconnect system.
The higher the sensitivity, the lesser the amount of
exter n

al light required for controlling the lighting.
To turn the dusk sensor on, rotate the headlight
switch
to the AUTO position. To turn it off, rotate the
headlight switch to a position other than AUTO.
NOTE:
The dusk sensor can only be activated with the
