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 268.
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 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 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 268.
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.
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.

NOTE:
If the indicator light stays on constantly,
programming is complete and the garage
door/device should activate when the
HomeLink® button is pressed.
To program the two remaining HomeLink®
buttons, repeat each step for each
remaining button. DO NOT erase the chan-
nels.
If you unplugged the garage door opener/
device for programming, plug it back in at this
time.
Reprogramming A Single HomeLink® Button
(Canadian/Gate Operator)
To reprogram a channel that has been previ -
ously trained, follow these steps:
1. Place the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
2. Press and hold the desired HomeLink® button until the indicator light begins to
flash after 20 seconds. Do not release the
button.
3. Without releasing the button, proceed with “Canadian/Gate Operator Programming”
step 2 and follow all remaining steps.
EXTERIOR LIGHTS
Headlight Switch
The headlight switch is located on the left side
of the instrument panel, next to the steering wheel. The headlight switch controls the oper
-
ation of the headlights, parking lights, instru -
ment panel lights, instrument panel light
dimming, interior lights and rear fog lights.
In addition, there are buttons for the Park -
Sense system and Engine Stop/Start
Ú
page 86.
Headlight Switch
The instrument panel and the various controls
on the dashboard will be illuminated when the
exterior lights are turned on.
To turn on the headlights, rotate the headlight
switch clockwise. When the headlight switch is
on, the parking lights, taillights, license plate
light and instrument panel lights are also turned on. To turn off the headlights, rotate
the headlight switch back to the O (off) posi

tion.
Daytime Running Lights (DRLs)
The Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) (low inten -
sity) come on automatically whenever the igni -
tion is placed in the ON/RUN position, and the
headlight switch is turned to the position,
and the dusk sensor detects sufficient
external light.
On some vehicles, the Daytime Running Lights
may deactivate, or reduce intensity, on one
side of the vehicle (when a turn signal is acti -
vated on that side), or on both sides of the
vehicle (when the hazard warning lights are
activated).
If equipped, the DRLs can be activated/deac -
tivated from the radio system, by selecting the
following functions in sequence on the main
MENU:
1. “Settings.”
2. “Lights.”
3. “Daytime Running Lights.”

Parking Lights
To turn on the parking lights and instrument
panel lights, rotate the headlight switch clock-
wise to the position. All of the parking lights
will turn on for eight minutes, and opening the
door activates an audible warning.
To leave only the lights on one side (right/left)
illuminated, move the multifunction lever
(located on the left side of the steering wheel)
to the side that you want to remain on. With
the parking lights on, the indicator light on
the instrument panel will illuminate.
To turn off the parking lights, rotate the head -
light switch back to the O (off) position.
Headlight Off Delay
To assist when exiting the vehicle, the “Head -
light Off Delay” feature will leave the head -
lights on for up to 90 seconds. This delay is
initiated when the ignition is placed in the OFF
position while the headlight switch is on, and
then the headlight switch is cycled off. Head -
light delay can be canceled by either turning
on the headlights or side lights, or by placing
the ignition in the ON position.
The function can be activated from the radio
system by selecting the following functions in
sequence on the main menu:
1. “Settings.”
2. “Lights.”
3. “Headlight Off Delay.”
Rear Fog Lights
The rear fog light switch is located within the
headlight switch.
Push the button, located in the center of
the headlight switch, to turn the rear fog lights
on/off.
The rear fog lights turn on only when the head -
lights or parking lights are also turned on. The
lights can be turned off by pushing the
button again or by turning the headlight switch
to the O (off) position.
When the engine is stopped with the rear fog
lights on, they will be off the next time the
engine is started.
Adaptive Headlight System (AFS) — If
Equipped
This is a system combined with Xenon head -
lights (Bi-Xenon 35 W headlamp, if equipped)
which directs the headlights horizontally, and
continuously and automatically adapts them
to the driving conditions around bends or
when cornering.
The system directs the headlights to light up
the road in the best way, taking into account
the speed of the vehicle and the bend or
corner angle, as well as the speed at which the
steering wheel is turned.
The adaptive lights are automatically activated
when the vehicle is started.
Turn Signals
Move the multifunction lever up or down to
activate the turn signals. The arrows on each
side of the instrument cluster flash to show
proper operation.
The or turn signal will blink on the instru -
ment panel.
Lane Change Assist
Lightly push the lever up or down once, without
moving beyond the detent, and the turn signal
will flash five times then automatically turn off.
To turn off the flashing before the end of the
cycle, move the lever in the opposite direction
until the first click (about half way).
INTERIOR LIGHTS
Courtesy lights are turned on when the front
doors are opened or when the dimmer control
is rotated to its farthest upward position. The
glove compartment light turns on automati -
cally when the glove compartment is opened
and turn off when it is closed. The door cour -
tesy lights illuminate when one of the front
doors is opened, and turn off when it is closed.
The liftgate courtesy lights turn on automati -
cally when the liftgate is opened and turn off
when it is closed. All of these lights turn on and
off regardless of the ignition status.

Description
The Automatic Dual Zone Climate Control
System adjusts the temperature and air distri-
bution independently between the driver and
passenger.
The system maintains the set temperature
inside the passenger compartment and
compensates for outside temperature change.
NOTE:
The reference temperature is 72°F (22°C) for
optimal comfort management.
The automatic setting will adjust the following
to maintain comfort within the passenger
compartment:
Air temperature from the driver/front
passenger side vents
Air distribution from the driver/front
passenger side vents
Fan speed (continuous variation of the air
flow)
Compressor variations (for cooling/dehu -
midifying the air)
Air recirculation
The Climate Control System can also be oper -
ated manually by using the buttons and knobs
on the faceplate.
Manual selections will override the automatic
settings, which are stored until the AUTO
button is pushed. If the system intervenes for
safety reasons, the automatic setting will take
control of the system.
The below operations will not deactivate the
automatic (AUTO) function:
Air Recirculation activation/deactivation
A/C activation/deactivation
SYNC function activation
Rear Window Defrost activation/deactiva -
tion
When in AUTO mode, the vehicle’s internal
temperature is controlled according to the set
temperature.
The following can be manually set or adjusted:
Driver/passenger air temperature
Blower speed (continuous variation)
Air distribution (seven positions for driver
and passenger)
A/C activation
Front Defroster
Air recirculation
Rear Defroster
System deactivation
A/C Compressor
Push the A/C button or the icon to activate or
deactivate the A/C compressor (indicator illu-
minated when activated). The A/C compressor
will remain off even after the engine has
stopped.
When the A/C compressor is turned off, the
system deactivates air recirculation to prevent
the windows from fogging up. If the climate
control system can maintain the temperature,
with the A/C turned off, the AUTO feature will
remain on and the AUTO button indicator light
will not switch off.
To restore automatic control of the A/C
compressor, push the A/C button or the icon or
the AUTO button. With the A/C compressor off,
the air speed can be set manually using the Air
Speed Adjustment Knob.
When the A/C compressor is on, and the
engine is running, air speed cannot be lower
than the minimum speed (only one indicator
light is lit).
CAUTION!
The system uses R1234yf refrigerant,
which does not pollute the environment in
the event of accidental leakage. Under no
circumstances, use R134a and R12 fluids,
which are incompatible with the
components of this system.

Humidity Sensor
The Humidity Sensor helps prevent the
windows from fogging up. The AUTO function
(indicator illuminated) must be on for the
Humidity Sensor to function.
When outside temperature is low, the system
may turn the compressor on and turn air recir-
culation off for safer driving.
Stop/Start
The Stop/Start system shuts off the engine
when the vehicle speed is 0 mph (0 km/h), as
a fuel conservation measure.
In order to maintain comfort in the cabin, the
Stop/Start feature will not activate if any of the
following conditions exist:
The Climate Control system is in AUTO mode
(indicator illuminated), and the vehicle has
yet to reach the set temperature
The Climate Control system is in LO
maximum cooling
The Climate Control system is in HI
maximum heating
The Climate Control system is in the
MAX-DEF status
When the Stop/Start system is active, the
engine will restart if the inside temperature
changes significantly, or if the LO setting, or
MAX-DEF setting, is activated. With Stop/Start system on (engine is OFF), air
flow is reduced to keep the compartment
comfort conditions for longer.
Until the temperature drastically changes
within the cabin, the climate control system
will continue to maintain the temperature
while the engine is off. By deactivating the
Stop/Start system with the button (located
by the headlight switch), the climate control
system operates normally according to the
settings.
NOTE:
In harsh climate conditions, limit the use of
the Stop/Start system to prevent the
compressor from continuously switching on
and off. This will cause rapid misting of the
windows and the accumulation of humidity
in the passenger compartment.
When the Stop/Start system is on, the
climate control system will always take air in
from outside, reducing the probability of the
windows fogging up.
System Maintenance
In winter months, the Climate Control system
must be turned on at least once a month for
approximately 10 minutes.
Have the system inspected at an authorized
dealer before the summer.
INTERIOR STORAGE AND
EQUIPMENT
Glove Compartment
The glove compartment is located on the
passenger side of the instrument panel.
Opening The Glove Compartment
Pull the release handle to open the glove
compartment.
When the glove compartment is opened, a
light turns on to illuminate the inside of the
compartment.
NOTE:
If equipped with a lock, unlock the glove
compartment by placing the emergency key
in the lock on the handle.
Do not insert large objects that will prevent
the glove compartment from closing
completely.

Quadrifoglio Instrument Cluster
Instrument Cluster Descriptions
1. Tachometer•Indicates the engine speed in revolu-
tions per minute (RPM x 1000).
• Inside the tachometer there is a light
sensor capable of detecting ambient
light conditions and adjusting the oper-
ating mode (night/day) and the bright-
ness of the instrument panel and the
Information and Entertainment System display. 2. Engine Oil Temperature Gauge
•The digital bar indicator monitors the
temperature of the engine oil and starts
supplying indic ations when the fluid
temperature reaches approximately
122°F (
50°C).
• Under normal usage, the digital scale
should hover around the middle of the
scale according to the working condi-
tions.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous.
You or others could be badly burned by
steam or boiling coolant. It is
recommended to call an authorized dealer
for service if your vehicle overheats

also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle’s handling and
stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute
for proper tire maintenance, and it is the
driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire
pressure, even if under inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The
TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with
the low tire pressure telltale. When the system
detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then remain
continuously illuminated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups
as long as the malfunction exists. When the
malfunction indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to detect or signal low
tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions
may occur for a variety of reasons, including
the installation of replacement or alternate
tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning properly. Always check
the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing
one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alternate tires
and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to
function properly.
Rear Fog Lights
The indicator illuminates when the
rear fog light is activated.
Engine Check/Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)
In normal conditions, when the igni-
tion is cycled to ON, the indicator
light illuminates, but it should turn
off as soon as the engine is started.
The operation of the indicator light may be
checked by the traffic police using specific
devices. Comply with the laws and regulations
of the country where you are driving. Under these conditions, the vehicle can
continue traveling at moderate speed but
without demanding excessive effort from the
engine or high speed. Prolonged use of the
vehicle with the indicator light on constantly
may cause damage. Contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible.
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) System
This indicator light informs the driver
that the frontal collision alarm func
-
tion is not enabled.
Drive carefully and contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible.
Fuel Reserve/Limited Range
The indicator light (or the symbol in
the display) illuminates when about
2.4 gallons (9 liters) of fuel is left in
the tank.
WARNING!
The TPMS has been optimized for the
original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures and warning have been
established for the tire size equipped on
your vehicle. Undesirable system operation
or sensor damage may result when using
replacement equipment that is not of the
same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket
wheels can cause sensor damage. Using
aftermarket tire sealants may cause the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
sensor to become inoperable. After using
an aftermarket tire sealant it is
recommended that you take your vehicle to
an authorized dealership to have your
sensor function checked.
CAUTION!
If, turning the ignition device to ON, the
warning light does not turn on or if it
turns on steadily or flashing when traveling
(on some versions together with the
message on the display), contact an
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
