the doors and liftgate or activate the Panic Alarm from
distances up to approximately 66 ft (20 m). In some
conditions, this distance can be reduced or increased.
The key fob does not need to be pointed at the vehicle
to activate the system. The key fob also contains an
emergency key, which is stored inside the key fob.
NOTE:
● The key fob’s wireless signal may be blocked if
the key fob is located next to a metallic object,
mobile phone, laptop, wireless charging pad, or
other electronic device. This may result in poor
performance.
● If the key fob’s battery is near depletion, the key fob
performance can be reduced.

To Unlock/Lock The Doors And Liftgate
Push and release the unlock button on the key fob once

doors and the liftgate, push the lock button once.
When the doors are unlocked, the turn signals will
flash and the illuminated entry system will be activated.
When the doors are locked, the turn signals will flash
and the horn will chirp (if programmed in the Uconnect
system).
NOTE:
If the vehicle is unlocked by a key fob, and no door is
opened within 60 seconds, the vehicle will relock and if

All doors can be programmed to unlock on the first

Key Left Vehicle Feature — If Equipped
If a valid key fob is no longer detected inside the vehicle
while the vehicle’s ignition system is in the ON/RUN
position, the message “Key Fob Has Left The Vehicle”
will be shown in the instrument cluster display along
with an interior chime. An exterior audible and visual
alert will also be activated to warn the driver.
The vehicle’s horn will rapidly chirp three times along
with a single flash of the vehicle’s exterior lights.
NOTE:
● The doors have to be open and then closed in order
for the vehicle to detect a key fob; the Key Left
Vehicle feature will activate when the first door is
closed and no key fob is detected in the vehicle. If
the warning has been activated, and the other doors
are closed, no other warnings will be issued.
● These alerts will not be activated in situations where
either the vehicle’s engine is left running with the
key fob inside, or the key fob’s wireless signals are
blocked.
Replacing The Battery In The Key Fob
The recommended replacement battery is one CR2032
battery.
NOTE:
● Customers are recommended to use a battery
obtained from Mopar®. Aftermarket coin battery
dimensions may not meet the original OEM coin
battery dimensions.
● Perchlorate Material — special handling may apply.
See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate
for further information.
● Do not touch the battery terminals that are on the
back housing or the printed circuit board.
