Key Fobs
Your vehicle uses either a wireless ignition
node system or keyless ignition system. The
ignition system consists of a key fob with a
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) and an ignition
switch. The keyless ignition system consists
of a key fob and Keyless Enter-N-Go button.
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.
The key fob operates the ignition switch.
Insert the square end of the key fob into the
ignition switch located on the instrument
panel and rotate to the desired position. It
also contains the key fob and an emergency
key, which stores in the rear of the key fob.
The emergency key allows for entry into the
vehicle should the battery in the vehicle or
the key fob go dead. You can keep the emer-
gency key with you when valet parking.
To remove the emergency key, slide the me-
chanical latch at the top of the key fob
sideways with your thumb and then pull the
key out with your other hand.
NOTE:
When using the emergency key to gain access
to your vehicle, be aware that the security
alarm may be triggered. Insert the key into
the ignition and place the ignition in the
ON/RUN mode to disarm the security system.
This Keyless Push Button Ignition key fob
allows the driver to operate the ignition
switch with the push of a button, as long as
the key fob is in the passenger compartment.
The Keyless Push Button Ignition has four
operating positions, three of which are la-
beled and will illuminate when in position.
The three positions are OFF, ACC, and ON/
RUN. The fourth position is START, during
start RUN will illuminate. It also contains the
key fob and an emergency key, which stores
in the rear of the key fob.
The emergency key allows for entry into the
vehicle should the battery in the vehicle or
the key fob go dead. You can keep the emer-
gency key with you when valet parking.
To remove the emergency key, slide the me-
chanical latch on the backside of the key fob
sideways with your thumb and then pull the
key out with your other hand.
NOTE:
• When using the emergency key to gain
access to your vehicle, be aware that the
security alarm may be triggered. Put the
nose side (side opposite of the emergency
key) of the key fob against the ENGINE
START/STOP button and push to disarm
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, tailgate, and the
RamBox (if equipped) as well as activate the
Panic Alarm from distances up to approxi-
mately 66 ft (20 m) using a key fob with
