RUN. The fourth position is START, during
start RUN will illuminate. It also contains the
key fob and an emergency key, which stores

gency key with you when valet parking.
To remove the emergency key, slide the me-
chanical latch on the backside of the key fob

the security system. • You can insert the double-sided emergency
key into the door lock cylinder with either
side up.
The Remote Keyless Entry system allows you
to lock or unlock all doors, and the tailgate as
well as activate the Panic Alarm from dis-

fob does not need to be pointed at the vehicle
to activate the system. Push and release the
lock button on the key fob to lock all doors,
and the tailgate. The turn signal lights will
flash and the horn will chirp to acknowledge
the signal.
NOTE:
Inserting the key fob with integrated key into
the ignition switch disables the system from
responding to any button pushes from that
key fob. Driving at speeds 5 mph (8 km/h)
and above disables the system from respond-
ing to all key fob buttons for all key fobs.

PARKSENSE FRONT AND REAR PARK
ASSIST — IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Park Assist system provides
visual and audible indications of the distance
between the rear and/or front fascia and a
detected obstacle when backing up or mov-
ing forward, e.g. during a parking maneuver.
Refer to “ParkSense System Usage
Precautions” in the Owner’s Manual at
www.mopar.com/en-us/care/
owners-manual.html (U.S. Residents) or
www.owners.mopar.ca (Canadian Residents)
for limitations of this system and recommen-
dations.
ParkSense will retain the last system state
(enabled or disabled) from the last ignition
cycle when the ignition is changed to the
ON/RUN position.
ParkSense can be active only when the gear
selector is in REVERSE or DRIVE. If
ParkSense is enabled at one of these gear
selector positions, the system will remain
active until the vehicle speed is increased to
approximately 7 mph (11 km/h) or above. A
warning will appear in the instrument clusterdisplay indicating the vehicle is above
ParkSense operating speed. The system will
become active again if the vehicle speed is
decreased to speeds less than approximately
6 mph (9 km/h).
