GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
In this section, you will find important informa-
tion 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
trunk operation. The key fob allows you to lock
or unlock the doors and trunk lid. 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 perfor -
mance.
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 direc -
tions to follow
Ú
page 273.
To Lock/Unlock The Doors And Trunk
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 trunk lid. To lock all the doors and the
trunk lid, push the lock button once. If the
trunk lid is open when the lock button is
pushed, the trunk lid will lock when it is closed. 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.
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 trunk lid is open, the
doors will lock. The doors will unlock again
automatically if the key 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 cour -
tesy 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.
Trunk Lid Opening
Rapidly push the trunk lid key fob button twice
to open the trunk lid. The turn signals will flash
to indicate that the trunk lid has been opened.
21_GA_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 16

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/hazard -
ouswaste/perchlorate
for further informa -
tion.
Do not touch the battery terminals that are
on the back housing or the printed circuit
board. To replace the battery, proceed as follows:

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 re-purposed and repro-
grammed 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 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
Ú
page 273.
NOTE:
When having the Engine Immobilizer
system serviced, bring all vehicle keys with
you to an authorized dealer.
For Quadrifoglio models, if you need a
replacement key fob, contact an authorized
dealer.
ENGINE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM
The Engine Immobilizer system prevents unau-
thorized vehicle operation by disabling the
engine. The system does not need to be armed
or activated. Operation is automatic, regard -
less 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 oper -
ation. 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 273.
CAUTION!
The battery replacement operation must be
done with care, in order not to damage the
electronic key.
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 mode.
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.

(Continued)
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 the 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 situa -
tion, a back up 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 86.
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
Ú
page 273.
WARNING!
When exiting the vehicle, always make
sure the ignition is in the OFF mode,
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 unat -
tended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seri -
ously or fatally injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the gear selector.

REMOTE START — IF EQUIPPED
This system uses the key fob to start
the engine conveniently from
outside the vehicle while still main-
taining security.
NOTE:
Obstructions between the vehicle and key fob
may reduce this range
Ú
page 273.
How To Use Remote Start
Push the Remote Start button on the key fob
twice within five seconds. The vehicle doors
will lock, the turn signals will flash twice, and
the horn will chirp twice. Pushing the Remote
Start button a third time shuts the engine off.

for 15 minutes.
Remote Start can only be used twice.
If an engine fault is present or fuel level is
low, the vehicle will start and then shut
down in 10 seconds.
The park lamps will turn on and remain on
during Remote Start mode.
For security, power window operation is
disabled when the vehicle is in the Remote
Start mode.
The ignition must be placed in the ACC posi -
tion before the Remote Start sequence can
be repeated for a third cycle.
