14 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
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 elec-
tronic device; these devices may block the
key fob’s wireless signal.
If your vehicle is equipped with a Wireless
Charging Pad, the key fob may not be found if
it is placed within 15 cm (150 mm) of the
pad. Refer to “Wireless Charging Pad — If
Equipped” in this chapter for further informa-
tion.
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 2 mph
(4 km/h).
The key fob should not be placed next to the
wireless charging pad (if equipped).
Key Fob
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. A low key fob battery
can be verified by referring to the instrument
cluster, which will display directions to follow.
NOTE:
A low key fob battery condition may be indicated
by a message in the instrument cluster display,
or by the LED light on the key fob. If the LED key
fob light no longer illuminates from key fob
button pushes, then the key fob battery requires
replacement.
In a situation where the battery is low or fully
depleted, a back up method can be used to
operate the ignition switch. Put the nose side of
the key fob (side opposite of the emergency key)
against the START/STOP ignition button and
push to operate the ignition switch.
To Unlock The Doors And Tailgate
Push and release the unlock button on the key
fob once to unlock the driver’s door. Push the
unlock button twice within five seconds to
unlock all doors, the tailgate and the RamBox (if
equipped). The turn sig
nal lights will flash to acknowledge the unlock
signal. The illuminated entry system will also
turn on.
NOTE:
The instrument cluster display or Uconnect
Settings are setup for driver door first, other-
wise this will unlock all doors.
