HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Essential Information
Consult the Table of Contents to determine
which section contains the information you
desire.
Since the specification of your vehicle de-
pends on the items of equipment ordered,
certain descriptions and illustrations may dif-
fer from your vehicle's equipment.
The detailed index at the back of this Owner's
Manual contains a complete listing of all sub-
jects.
Symbols
Some vehicle components have colored la-
bels whose symbols indicate precautions to
be observed when using this component.
Refer to “Warning Lights and Messages” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for
further information on the symbols used in
your vehicle.
ROLLOVER WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehicles. This
vehicle has a higher ground clearance and a
higher center of gravity than many passenger
vehicles. It is capable of performing better in
a wide variety of off-road applications. Driven
in an unsafe manner, all vehicles can go out
of control. Because of the higher center of
gravity, if this vehicle is out of control it may
roll over when some other vehicles may not.
Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneu-
vers, or other unsafe driving actions that can
cause loss of vehicle control. Failure to oper-
ate this vehicle safely may result in a colli-
sion, rollover of the vehicle, and severe or
fatal injury. Drive carefully.
Failure to use the driver and passenger seat
belts provided is a major cause of severe or
fatal injury. In a rollover crash, an unbelted
person is significantly more likely to die than a
person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle up.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
This User Guide contains WARNINGS against
operating procedures that could result in a
collision, bodily injury and/or death. It also
contains CAUTIONS against procedures that
could result in damage to your vehicle. If you
do not read this entire guide, you may miss
important information. Observe all Warnings
and Cautions.

KEYS
Key Fob
WARNING!
Push the Mechanical Key Release Button
only with the key fob facing away from your
body, especially your eyes and objects that
may be damaged, such as clothing.
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system.
The ignition system consists of a key fob with
Keyless Go and a START/STOP push button
ignition system. The Remote Keyless Entry
system consists of a key fob with a mechani-
cal key and Keyless Enter-N-Go feature if
equipped.
NOTE:
The key fob may not be detected by the
vehicle if it is located next to a mobile phone,
laptop or other electronic device; these de-
vices may block the key fob’s wireless signal.
CAUTION!
The electrical components inside of the
key fob may be damaged if the key fob is
subjected to strong electrical shocks. In
order to ensure complete efficiency of the
CAUTION!
electronic devices inside of the key fob,
avoid exposing the key fob to direct sun-
light.
The key fob allows you to lock or unlock the
doors and swing gate from distances up to
approximately 66 ft (20 m) by pressing the
appropriate button on the fob. The key fob
does not need to be pointed at the vehicle to
activate the system.
NOTE:
With the ignition in ON/RUN position and
with the vehicle doors open, the lock button
will be disabled, and only the unlock button
will be enabled. All RKE commands will be
disabled once the vehicle begins moving at
3.1 mph (5 km/h) or above.
Backup Mode Starting
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 direc-
tions to follow.
Key Fob

2 — Unlock Button
3 — Lock Button
4 — Remote Start
13
NOTE:
A low key fob battery condition may be indi-
cated 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 this situation, a back up method can be
used to operate the ignition switch. Put the
nose side of the key fob against the ENGINE
START/STOP button, and push to operate the
ignition switch.
NOTE:
Improper disposal of key fob batteries may be
harmful to the environment. Please see an
authorized dealer for proper battery disposal.
To Unlock The Doors And Swing Gate
Push and release the key fob unlock button
once to unlock the driver's door only, or twice
to unlock all the doors and swing gate. When
the key fob unlock button is pushed, the
Illuminated Entry will initiate, and the turn
signal lights will flash twice.
To Lock The Doors And Swing Gate
Push and release the lock button on the key
fob to lock all doors. The turn signals will
flash, and the horn will chirp once to ac-
knowledge the lock signal.
Request For Additional Key Fobs
NOTE:
Only key fobs that are programmed to the
vehicle electronics can be used to start and
operate the vehicle. Once a key fob is pro-
grammed to a vehicle, it cannot be pro-
grammed to any other vehicle.
WARNING!
• Always remove the key fobs from the
vehicle and lock all doors when leaving
the vehicle unattended.
• Always remember to place the ignition in
the OFF mode.
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at
an authorized dealer. This procedure consists
of programming a blank key fob to the vehicle
electronics. A blank key fob is one that has
never been programmed.
NOTE:
• When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer
System serviced, bring all vehicle keys with
you to an authorized dealer.
• Keys must be ordered to the correct key cut
to match the vehicle locks.

IGNITION SWITCH
Keyless Enter-N-Go — Ignition
This feature allows the driver to operate the
ignition switch with the push of a button as
long as the key fob is in the passenger com-
partment.
The Keyless Push Button Ignition has several
operating modes that are labeled and will
illuminate when in position. These modes are
OFF, ACC, RUN, and START.
NOTE:
In case the ignition switch does not change
with the push of a button, the key fob may
have a low or dead battery. In this situation, 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 ENGINE START/STOP button and
push to operate the ignition switch.
The push button ignition can be placed in the
following modes:
OFF
• The engine is stopped.
• Some electrical devices (e.g. Central lock-
ing, alarm, etc.) are available.
ACC
• Engine is not started.
• Some electrical devices are available.
RUN
• Driving position.
• All electrical devices are available.
START
• The engine will start.
WARNING!
• When exiting the vehicle, always remove
the key fob from the vehicle and lock
your vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle,
or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
• Allowing children to be in a vehicle un-
attended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seri-
ously or fatally injured. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to
children, and do not leave the ignition of
a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-
N-Go in the ON/RUN mode. A child
could operate power windows, other con-
trols, or move the vehicle.

WARNING!
• Do not leave children or animals inside
parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior
heat build-up may cause serious injury
or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation for
thieves. Always remove key fob from the
vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the
vehicle unattended.
NOTE:
Refer to "Starting The Engine," in "Starting
And Operating" in the Owner’s Manual for
further information.
REMOTE STARTING

start the engine conveniently from
outside the vehicle while still main-
taining security. The system has a
range of 328 ft (100 m).
The Remote Starting System also activates the
Climate Control, vented seats (if equipped) in
temperatures above 80° F (26.7° C), and the
heated seats (if equipped), and heated steer-
ing wheel (if equipped) in temperatures below
40° F (4.4° C). Refer to “Heated Seats” in
“Getting To Know Your Vehicle” in the Owner’s
Manual for further information.
NOTE:
• The vehicle must be equipped with an
automatic transmission to be equipped
with Remote Start.
• Obstructions between the vehicle and key
fob may reduce this range.

twice within five seconds. Pushing the Re-
mote Start button a third time shuts the
engine off.
• To drive the vehicle, push unlock button,
and place the ignition in the ON/RUN po-
sition.
• With remote start, the engine will only run
for 15 minutes (timeout) unless the igni-
tion key is placed in the ON/RUN position.
• The vehicle must be started with the key
after two consecutive timeouts.
All of the following conditions must be met
before the engine will remote start:
• Gear Selector in PARK
• Doors closed
• Hood closed
• Swing Gate closed
• Hazard switch off
• Brake switch inactive (brake pedal not
pushed)
• Battery at an acceptable charge level

WARNING!
• Do not start or run an engine in a closed
garage or confined area. Exhaust gas
contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which
is odorless and colorless. Carbon Mon-
oxide is poisonous and can cause seri-
ous injury or death when inhaled.
• Keep key fobs away from children. Op-
eration of the Remote Start System,
windows, door locks or other controls
could cause serious injury or death.
To Enter Remote Start Mode
Push and release the Remote Start button on
the key fob twice within five seconds. The
vehicle doors will lock, the turn signals will
flash twice, and the horn will chirp twice.
Then the engine will start, and the vehicle
will remain in the Remote Start mode for a
15-minute cycle.
NOTE:
• If an engine fault is present or fuel level is
low, the vehicle will start and then shut
down in 10 seconds.
• The park lamps will turn on and remain on
during Remote Start mode.
• For security, power window operation is
disabled when the vehicle is in the Remote
Start mode.
• The engine can be started two consecutive
times (two 15-minute cycles) with the key
fob. However, the ignition must be placed
in the ON/RUN position before you can
repeat the start sequence for a third cycle.
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM —
IF EQUIPPED
The vehicle security alarm monitors the ve-
hicle doors for unauthorized entry and the
ignition switch for unauthorized operation.
When the alarm is activated, the interior
switches for door locks are disabled. The
vehicle security alarm provides both audible
and visible signals. If something triggers the
alarm, the vehicle security alarm will provide
the following audible and visible signals: the
horn will pulse, the park lamps and/or turn
signals will flash, and the vehicle security
light in the instrument cluster will flash.
To Arm The System
Follow these steps to arm the vehicle security
alarm:
1. Make sure the vehicle’s ignition is cycled
to the “OFF” position (refer to "Starting
The Engine" in "Starting And Operating"
for further information).
2. Perform one of the following methods to
lock the vehicle:
• Push lock on the interior power door
lock switch with the driver and/or pas-
senger door open.
• Push the lock button on the exterior
Passive Entry Door Handle with a valid
key fob available in the same exterior
zone (refer to "Keyless Enter-N-Go —
Passive Entry" in "Getting To Know Your
Vehicle" for further information).
• Push the lock button on the key fob.
3. If any doors are open, close them.

To Disarm The System
The vehicle security alarm can be disarmed
using any of the following methods:
• Push the unlock button on the key fob.
•
Grasp the Passive Entry Unlock Door Handle
(if equipped, refer to "Keyless Enter-N-Go —
Passive Entry" in "Getting To Know Your
Vehicle" for further information).
• Cycle the vehicle ignition system out of the
OFF position.
NOTE:
• The driver's door key cylinder cannot arm or
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
• When the vehicle security alarm is armed,
the interior power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.
The vehicle security alarm is designed to
protect your vehicle. However, you can create
conditions where the system will give you a
false alarm. If one of the previously described
arming sequences has occurred, the vehicle
security alarm will arm regardless of whether
you are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in
the vehicle and open a door, the alarm will
sound. If this occurs, disarm the vehicle
security alarm.
If the vehicle security alarm is armed and the
battery becomes disconnected, the vehicle
security alarm will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
DOORS
CAUTION!
Careless handling and storage of the re-
movable door panels may damage the
seals, causing water to leak into the vehi-
cle’s interior.
Keyless Enter-N-Go — Passive Entry
(If Equipped)
The Passive Entry system is a feature that
allows you to lock and unlock the vehicle’s
door(s) and swing gate without having to push
the key fob lock or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
•
Passive Entry may be programmed ON/OFF;
refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multime-
dia” in your Owner’s Manual for further infor-
mation.
• The key fob may not 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 inter-
fere with the key fob’s wireless signal and
prevent the passive entry system from
locking/unlocking the vehicle.
•
Passive Entry Unlock initiates illuminated
approach (Low Beams, License Plate Lamp,
Position Lamps) for whichever time duration
is set between 0, 30 (default), 60 or 90 sec-
onds. Passive Entry Unlock also initiates two
flashes of the turn signal lamps.
•
If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it has
been raining/snowing on the Passive Entry
door handle, the unlock sensitivity can be
affected, resulting in a slower response time.
• If the vehicle is unlocked by Passive Entry
and no door is opened within 60 seconds,
the vehicle will re-lock and if equipped will
arm the security alarm.
