VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
This Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the doors, liftgate, and ignition switch for unauthorized
operation.
When the alarm is activated, the interior switches for door locks are disabled. The Vehicle
Security Alarm provides both audio and visual signals repeatedly for three minutes. If the
disturbance is still present (driver's door, passenger door, other doors, ignition) after three
minutes, the parking lights and tail lights will flash for an additional 15 minutes.
To Arm:
• Lock the door using either the power door lock switch (one door must be open) or the LOCKbutton on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter (doors can be open or closed), and
close all doors.
NOTE:
The Vehicle Security Alarm will not arm if you lock the doors with the manual door lock rocker
button.
The Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster will flash for 16 seconds. This shows that the
Vehicle Security Alarm is arming. During this period, if a door is opened, the ignition is cycled to
ON/RUN, or the power door locks are unlocked in any manner, the Vehicle Security Alarm will
automatically disarm.
NOTE:
Once armed, the Vehicle Security Alarm disables the unlock switch on the driver door trim panel
and passenger door trim panel.
To Disarm The System:
• Push the Key Fob UNLOCK button or cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to protect your vehicle; however, you can create
conditions where the Vehicle Security Alarm will give you a false alarm. If one of the previously
described arming sequences has occurred, the Vehicle Security Alarm 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 Alarm.
If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed and the battery becomes disconnected the Vehicle
Security Alarm 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 Alarm.

Selling Your Vehicle
When you sell your vehicle, we recommend that you remove your Uconnect® Access Account
information from the vehicle. You can do this using the radio touchscreen in the vehicle or on the
Mopar Owner Connect website (moparownerconnect.com). Removing your account informa-
tion cancels your subscription and makes your vehicle factory-ready for a new owner/subscriber.
1. From your vehicle’s radio touchscreen, select “Uconnect® Store” from the Apps Menu.
2. Select “My Apps,” then “Settings.” Press “Remove Uconnect® Account.”
3. Enter your Uconnect® Security PIN, and select “Continue.”
For additional information on Uconnect®:
• U.S. residents - visit DriveUconnect.com or call 1-877-855-8400.
• Canadian Residents - visit DriveUconnect.ca or call, 1-800-465-2001 (English) or1-800-387-9983 (French).
Built-In Features (Uconnect® 8.4AN Only)
CAUTION!
• Ignoring the rearview mirror light could mean you may not have 9-1-1 Call service if needed. If the rearview mirror light is illuminated, have an authorized dealer service the
9-1-1 Call system immediately.
• The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) turns on the Air Bag Warning Light on the
instrument panel if a malfunction is detected in any part of the air bag system. If the Air
Bag Warning Light is illuminated, the air bag system may not be working properly and the
9-1-1 system may not be able to send a signal to a 9-1-1 operator. If the Air Bag Warning
Light is illuminated, have an authorized dealer service your vehicle immediately.
• If anyone in the vehicle could be in danger (e.g., fire or smoke is visible, dangerous road
conditions or location), do not wait for voice contact from a 9-1-1 operator. All occupants
should exit the vehicle immediately and move to a safe location.
• Do not add any aftermarket electrical equipment to the vehicle’s electrical system. This
may prevent your vehicle from sending a signal to initiate an emergency call. To avoid
interference that can cause the 9-1-1 Call system to fail, never add aftermarket equipment
(e.g., two-way mobile radio, CB radio, data recorder, etc.) to your vehicle’s electrical
system or modify the antennas on your vehicle. IF YOUR VEHICLE LOSES BATTERY
POWER FOR ANY REASON (INCLUDING DURING OR AFTER AN ACCI-
DENT), THE UCONNECT® FEATURES, APPS AND SERVICES, AMONG OTH-
ERS, WILL NOT OPERATE.

Before You Begin Programming HomeLink®
Ensure that your vehicle is parked outside of the garage before you begin programming.
For efficient programming and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal, it is recom-
mended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held transmitter of the device that is being
programmed to the HomeLink® system.
To erase the channels, place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position, then push and hold the
two outside HomeLink® buttons (I and III) for up to 20 seconds or until the red indicator flashes.
NOTE:
Erasing all channels should only be performed when programming HomeLink® for the first time.
Do not erase channels when programming additional buttons.
If you have any problems, or require assistance, please call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 or, on the
Internet at for information or assistance.
Programming A Rolling Code
NOTE:
For programming Garage Door Openers that were manufactured after 1995. These Garage
Door Openers can be identified by the “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button located where the hanging
antenna is attached to the Garage Door Opener. It is NOT the button that is normally used to
open and close the door. The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.
1. Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink® button youwish to program while keeping the HomeLink® indicator light in view.
3. Push and hold the HomeLink® button you want to program while you push and hold the hand-held transmitter button.
4.
Continue to hold both buttons and observe the indicator light. The HomeLink® indicator will flash
slowly and then rapidly after HomeLink® has received the frequency signal from the hand-held
transmitter. Release both buttons after the indicator light changes from slow to rapid.
5. At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the “LEARN” or “TRAINING” button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the garage
door opener motor. Firmly push and release the “LEARN” or “TRAINING” button.
NOTE:
You have 30 seconds in which to initiate the next step after the LEARN button has been pushed.
6. Return to the vehicle and push the programmed HomeLink® button twice (holding the button for two seconds each time). If the device is plugged in and activates, programming is
complete.

POWER OUTLET
There are two 12 Volt electrical power outlets on this vehicle
The front 12 Volt power outlet is located on the passenger side of the Center Console, and is
powered when the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN position. The outlet can operate a
conventional cigar lighter unit or power accessories designed for use with a standard power outlet
adapter.
The center console 12 Volt power outlet is pow-
ered directly from the battery (power available
at all times). Items plugged into this outlet may
discharge the battery and/or prevent the en-
gine from starting.
NOTE:
• Do not exceed the maximum power of160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the
160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating is ex-
ceeded, the fuse protecting the system will
need to be replaced.
• Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not insert any other object in
the power outlet as this will damage the
outlet and blow the fuse. Improper use of
the power outlet can cause damage not cov-
ered by your new vehicle warranty.
