KEYS
Key Fob
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. The ignition
system consists of a key fob with Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) and a START/STOP push button ignition system.
The Remote Keyless Entry system consists of a key fob and
Keyless Enter-N-Go feature.
NOTE:The key fob may not be found if it is located next to
a mobile phone, laptop or other electronic device; these
devices may block the key fob’s wireless signal.
The key fob allows you to lock or unlock all doors, tailgate,
and the RamBox (if equipped) as well as activate the Panic
Alarm from distances up to approximately 66 ft (20 m)
using a handheld key fob. The key fob does not need to be
pointed at the vehicle to activate the system.
NOTE:
• In the ON/RUN position, all key fob buttons will work
until the vehicle reaches 3 mph (5 km/h).
• The key fob should not be placed next to the wireless
charging pad (if equipped). 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. In this instance, the instrument cluster will display
directions to follow.

In case the ignition switch does not change with the push
of a button, the key fob may have a low or dead battery. In
this situation, a back up method can be used to operate the
ignition switch. Put the nose side (side opposite of the
emergency key) of the key fob against the ENGINE
START/STOP button and push to operate the ignition
switch.
NOTE:The key fob may not be able to be detected by the
vehicle keyless-go system if it is located next to a mobile
phone, laptop or other electronic device; these devices may
block the key fob’s wireless signal and prevent the
keyless-go system from starting the vehicle. NOTE:
Refer to Starting The Engine, inStarting And
Operating for further information.

Power Door Locks — If Equipped
The power door lock switches are on each front door trim
panel. Use these switches to lock or unlock the doors.
NOTE:The key fob may not be able to be detected by the
vehicle Keyless Enter-N-Go system if it is located next to a
mobile phone, laptop or other electronic device; these
devices may block the key fob’s wireless signal and prevent
the Keyless Enter-N-Go system from starting the vehicle.
If you push the power door lock switch while the key fob
is located inside the vehicle, and any front door is open, the power locks will not operate. This prevents you from
accidentally locking your key fob in the vehicle. Removing
the key fob or closing the door will allow the locks to
operate. A chime will sound if the key fob is in the ignition
switch and a door is open, as a reminder to remove the key
fob.
Power Side Steps — If Equipped
The Power Side Steps will extend a step for easier entry
and exit of the vehicle.
When configured for “Auto” mode, the Power Side Steps
will deploy when either the driver ’s or passenger ’s side
door is opened, or when the deploy setting is activated
through the touchscreen. When configured for “Store”
mode, the steps will stay in their position but can also be
deployed manually through the radio.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 5 mph (8 km/h), or if the
retract setting is selected in the touchscreen, the steps will
retract.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for addi-
tional information.

Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry
The Passive Entry system is an enhancement to the vehi-
cle’s Remote Keyless Entry system and a feature of Keyless
Enter-N-Go. This feature allows you to lock and unlock the
vehicle’s door(s) without having to push the key fob lock
or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
•Passive Entry may be programmed ON/OFF. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further infor-
mation.
• If wearing gloves on your hands, 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 re-lock and
if equipped will arm the security alarm.
• The vehicles security alarm can be armed/disarmed by
pushing the passive entry key fob lock/unlock buttons
(if equipped). •
The key fob may not be able to be detected by the vehicle
passive entry system if it is located next to a mobile phone,
laptop or other electronic device; these devices may block
the key fob’s wireless signal and prevent the passive entry
handle from locking/unlocking the vehicle.
To Unlock From The Driver’s Side:
With a valid Passive Entry key fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the
driver door handle, grab the front driver door handle to
unlock the driver’s door automatically. The interior door
panel lock knob will raise when the door is unlocked.

WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•Only devices designed for use in this type of outlet
should be inserted into any 12 Volt outlet.
• Do not touch with wet hands.
• Close the lid when not in use and while driving the
vehicle.
• If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric
shock and failure.
CAUTION!
• Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power
from the vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e.,
cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long
enough, the vehicle’s battery will discharge suffi-
ciently to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
(Continued)
CAUTION! (Continued)
•Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.), will discharge the
battery even more quickly. Only use these intermit-
tently and with greater caution.
• After the use of high power draw accessories, or long
periods of the vehicle not being started (with acces-
sories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
sufficient length of time to allow the generator to
recharge the vehicle’s battery.

Power Inverter — If Equipped
If equipped, a 115 Volt (400 Watts Maximum) inverter may
be located inside the center console towards the right hand
side, just under the Wireless Charging Pad (if equipped).
This inverter can power cellular phones, electronics and
other low power devices requiring power up to 400 Watts.
Certain high-end video game consoles exceed this power
limit, as will most power tools.
There is also a second 115 Volt (400 Watts Maximum)
power inverter located on the rear of the center console.
This inverter can power cellular phones, electronics andother low power devices requiring power up to 400 Watts.
Certain high-end video game consoles exceed this power
limit, as will most power tools.
All power inverters are designed with built-in overload
protection. If the power rating of 400 Watts is exceeded, the
power inverter shuts down. Once the electrical device has
been removed from the outlet the inverter should reset.
NOTE:
400 Watts is the maximum for the inverter, not
each outlet. If three outlets are in use, 400 Watts is shared
amongst the devices plugged in.

Wireless Charging Pad — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with a 15W 3A Qi wireless
charging pad located inside of the center console just below
the CD player. This charging pad is designed to wirelessly
charge your Qi enabled mobile phone. Qi is a standard that
uses magnetic induction to transfer power to your mobile
device.Your mobile phone must be designed for Qi wireless
charging. If the phone is not equipped with Qi wireless
charging functionality, an aftermarket sleeve or a special-
ized back plate can be purchased from your mobile phone
provider or an local electronics retailer. Please see your
phone’s owner ’s manual for further information.
The wireless charging pad is equipped with an anti-slip
mat, an adjustable cradle to hold your mobile phone in
place and an LED indicator light.
CAUTION!
The key fob should not be placed on the charging pad
or within 15 cm (150 mm) of it. Doing so can cause
excessive heat buildup and damage to the fob. Placing
the fob in close proximity of the charging pad blocks
the fob from being detected by the vehicle and pre-
vents the vehicle from starting.
NOTE: Visit UconnectPhone.com for supported mobile
phones and compatible aftermarket sleeves.
