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 workuntil the vehicle reaches 3 mph (5 km/h).
• The key fob should not be placed next to the wireless charging pad (if equipped). Key Fob

lower remotely:
• The vehicle must not already be in Entry/Exit (Park) ride
height.
• The vehicle battery must be fully charged.
• All doors must be closed.

Vehicle lowering can be cancelled at anytime. When vehicle
lowering is canceled, the vehicle will raise up to the next
defined level and lock out the remote lowering feature until
the ignition has been cycled ON/OFF.
To cancel vehicle lowering, push the key fob air suspension
lowering button one time during the lowering process.
When vehicle lowering is canceled, the horn will chirp two
times and the turn signal lamps will flash four times. Once

nect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further information.

tivity can be affected, resulting in a slower response time.

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

condition will still support the Passive Entry system func -tionality. When the key fob battery is low, the instrument
cluster will display a message indicating that the key fob
battery is low. Refer to “Keys” in “Getting To Know Your
Vehicle” for further information.
The vehicle doors can also be locked by using the key fob
lock button or the lock button located on the vehicle’s inte -
rior door panel.
