The driver’s primary responsibility is the safe operation of the vehicle. Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control, resulting in 
an accident and personal injury. FCA US LLC strongly recommends that the driver use extreme caution when using any device or feature that 
may take their attention off the road. Use of any electrical devices, such as cellular telephones, computers, portable radios, vehicle navigation 
or other devices, by the driver while the vehicle is moving is dangerous and could lead to a serious accident. Texting while driving is also 
dangerous and should never be done while the vehicle is moving. If you find yourself unable to devote your full attention to vehicle operation, 
pull off the road to a safe location and stop your vehicle. Some states or provinces prohibit the use of cellular telephones or texting while 
driving. It is always the driver’s responsibility to comply with all local laws.

KeySense Features — If Equipped
This feature provides the vehicle owner with the 
ability to customize vehicle settings that can be 
applied to determine the driving experience for 
other drivers of the vehicle. The vehicle settings 
are protected by a unique 4-digit PIN, which the 
vehicle owner creates when accessing the specific 
settings for the first time.
KeySense also has additional features that are 
always enabled when the specific key is in use that 
cannot be set by the vehicle owner. While this 
specific key fob is in use, the vehicle will respond 
accordingly to the customized vehicle settings and 
mandatory features. This includes enhanced 
driving assistance features, increased driver 
alerts, and the locking of certain optional features. 
These settings can be selected within the 
Uconnect system  Úpage 188.
KeySense Key Fob
 KeySense Unique Splash Screen
At vehicle start-up, the KeySense splash screen 
should inform the driver that the vehicle will be 
functioning in KeySense mode when the KeySense 
key is in use.
Start Up Display Features
Unique splash screen graphic
Telltale   illuminated
After unique splash screen, and after stored 
messages are cycled, then start-up KeySense 
messages (Range & Max Speed) are displayed
The following features are always enabled when 
this key is in use:
Entertainment audio muted if front occupied 
seat belts are not fastened
Consistent seat belt unfastened chime
Maximum radio volume limited to 15 out of 39
Daytime Running Lights
Headlights On With Wipers
Rain Sensing Wipers
Automatic High Beams
SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key 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 cannot reprogram a key fob obtained from 
another vehicle.
After placing the ignition 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 attempted to start the engine with 
an invalid key fob. In the event that a valid key fob 
is used to start the engine but there is an issue 
with the vehicle electronics, the engine will start 
and shut off after two seconds.

If set by the customer in the Uconnect Settings, 
unlocking with Passive Entry will initiate illumi -
nated approach (low beams, license plate light, 
parking lights) for the time 0, 30, 60 or 
90 seconds. Passive Entry also initiates 
two flashes of the turn signals.
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 will arm the Vehicle 
Security system (if equipped).
The sliding side doors can be unlocked from the 
outside using the hands-free or Passive Entry 
system.
To Unlock From The Driver Or Passenger Side:
With a valid key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the door 
handle, grab the handle to unlock the vehicle. 
Grabbing the driver’s door handle will unlock the 
driver’s side doors (driver/sliding door) 
automatically. Grabbing the front passenger door 
handle to unlock all four doors and the liftgate 
automatically. The interior door panel lock knob 
will rotate when the door is unlocked.
 Grab The Door Handle To Unlock
NOTE:
Either the driver door only or all doors will unlock 
when you grab hold of the front driver’s door 
handle, depending on the selected setting in the 
Uconnect system  Ú
page 188.
All doors will unlock when the front passenger 
door handle is grabbed regardless of the 
driver’s door unlock preference setting.
Frequency Operated Button Integrated Key 
(FOBIK-Safe)
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally 
locking a key fob inside your vehicle, the Passive 
Entry system is equipped with an automatic door 
unlock feature. There are three situations that trigger a 
FOBIK-Safe search in any Passive Entry vehicle:
A lock request is made by a valid key fob while a 
door is open.
A lock request is made by the Passive Entry door 
handle while a door is open.
A lock request is made by the door panel switch 
while the door is open.
When any of these situations occur, after all open 
doors are shut, the FOBIK-Safe search will be 
executed. If it detects a key fob inside the car, and 
it does not detect any key fob outside the car, then 
the car will unlock and alert the customer.
NOTE:The vehicle will only unlock the doors when a valid 
Passive Entry key fob is detected inside the 
vehicle, and no valid key fob is detected outside 
the vehicle. The vehicle will not unlock the doors 
when any of the following conditions are met: 
The doors are manually locked using the door 
lock knobs.
Three attempts are made to lock the doors 
using the door panel switch and then the doors 
are closed.
There is a valid Passive Entry key fob outside the 
vehicle and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of either Passive 
Entry door handle.

(Continued)
NOTE:
To help control wind noise, stow the crossbars in 
the side rails when they are not in use.
If any metallic object is placed over the satellite 
radio antenna (if equipped), you may experience 
interruption of satellite radio reception.
WARNING!
Cargo must be securely tied down before driving 
your vehicle. Improperly secured loads can fly off 
the vehicle, particularly at high speeds, resulting 
in personal injury or property damage. Follow 
the roof rack cautions when carrying cargo on 
your roof rack.
CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the roof of your vehicle, 
DO NOT carry any loads on the roof rack 
without the crossbars deployed. The load 
should be secured and placed on top of the 
crossbars, not directly on the roof. If it is 
necessary to place the load on the roof, place 
a blanket or other protective layer between 
the load and the roof surface.
To avoid damage to the roof rack and vehicle, 
do not exceed the maximum roof rack load 
capacity of 150 lb (68 kg). Always distribute 
heavy loads as evenly as possible and secure 
the load appropriately.
Load should always be secured to cross bars 
first, with tie down loops used as additional 
securing points if needed. Tie loops are 
intended as supplementary tie down points 
only. Do not use ratcheting mechanisms with 
the tie loops. Check the straps and thumb 
wheels frequently to be sure that the load 
remains securely attached.
Long loads that extend over the windshield, 
such as wood panels or surfboards, or loads 
with large frontal area should be secured to 
both the front and rear of the vehicle.
Travel at reduced speeds and turn corners 
carefully when carrying large or heavy loads 
on the roof rack. Wind forces, due to natural 
causes or nearby truck traffic, can add sudden 
upward lift to a load. This is especially true on 
large flat loads and may result in damage to 
the cargo or your vehicle.
CAUTION!
