INTRODUCTION

Dear Customer, congratulations on selecting your new vehicle. Be assured that it represents precision workman- ship, distinctive styling, and high quality.

This is a specialized utility vehicle. It can go places and perform tasks that are not intended for conventional passenger vehicles. It handles and maneuvers differently from many passenger vehicles, both on-road and off-road, so take time to become familiar with your vehicle. If equipped, the two-wheel drive version of this vehicle is designed for on-road use only. It is not intended for off-road driving or use in other severe conditions suited for a four-wheel drive vehicle. Before you start to operate this vehicle, read the Owner’s Manual. Be sure you are familiar with all vehicle controls, particularly those used for braking, steering, trans- mission, and transfer case operation. Learn how your vehicle handles on different road surfaces. Your driving skills will improve with experience. When driving off-road, or oper- ating the vehicle, don’t overload the vehicle or expect the vehicle to overcome the natural laws of physics. Always observe federal, state, provincial and local laws wherever

you drive. As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate this vehicle correctly may result in loss of control or a collision. Refer to the “Driving Tips” in “Starting and Oper- ating” for further information.

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL

Essential Information

Consult the Table of Contents at the front of this Owner’s Manual to determine which section contains the information you desire.

Since the specification of your vehicle depends on the items of equipment ordered, certain descriptions and illustrations may differ from your vehicle's equipment.

The detailed index at the back of this Owner's Manual contains a complete listing of all subjects.

Symbols

Some vehicle components have colored labels 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 infor- mation 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 while some other vehicles may not.

Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneuvers, or other unsafe driving actions that can cause loss of vehicle control. Failure to operate this vehicle safely may result in a collision, rollover of the vehicle, and severe or fatal injury. Drive care- fully.

Rollover Warning Label

Failure to use the driver and passenger seat belts provided is a major cause of severe or fatal injury. In fact, the US govern- ment notes that the universal use of existing seat belts could cut the highway death toll by 10,000 or more each year and could reduce disabling injuries by two million annually. In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle up.

Key Fob

1 — Flip Key Release Button

2 — Unlock Button

3 — Lock Button

4 — Remote Start Button

5 — Panic Button

Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. The ignition system consists of a key fob with Keyless Enter-N-Go and a START/STOP Ignition Button. The Remote Keyless Entry

(RKE) system consists of a key fob with a mechanical key and Keyless Enter-N-Go feature.

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 devices may block the key fob’s wireless signal.

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.

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 electronic devices inside of the key fob, avoid exposing the key fob to direct sunlight.

The key fob allows you to lock or unlock the doors and tail- 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 2 mph (4 km/h) or above.

To Unlock The Doors And Tailgate

Push and release the key fob unlock button once to unlock the driver's door only, or twice to unlock all the doors and tailgate. This setting is adjustable through the Uconnect Settings. When the key fob unlock button is pushed, the Illu- minated Entry will initiate, and the turn signal lights will flash twice.

NOTE:

The mechanical flip key can be used to lock or unlock the door cylinders, tailgate, glove compartment, storage compartments (if equipped), and rear seatbacks.

To Lock The Doors And Tailgate

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 acknowledge the lock signal.

Pushing the lock button on the key fob while you are in the vehicle will activate the Vehicle Security Alarm system. Opening a door with the Vehicle Security Alarm system acti- vated will cause the alarm to sound. Push the unlock button to deactivate the Vehicle Security Alarm system.

Using The Panic Alarm

To turn the Panic Alarm feature on or off, push the panic button on thekey fob. Whenthe Panic Alarm is activated, the turn signals will flash, the horn will pulse on and off, and the interior lights will turn on.

20 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

The Panic Alarm will stay on for three minutes unless you turn it off by either pushing the panic button a second time or drive the vehicle at a speed of 2 mph (4 km/h) or greater.

NOTE:

The interior lights will turn off if you place the ignition in the ACC or ON/RUN position while the Panic Alarm is activated. However, the exterior lights and horn will remain on.

You may need to be less than 35 ft (11 m) from the vehicle when using the key fob to turn off the Panic Alarm due to the radio frequency noises emitted by the system.

Key Fob Battery Replacement

NOTE:

When a keyfob battery is low, a warning will be indicated on the vehicle’s instrument cluster, and the fob LED will no longer illuminate with a button push.

The recommended replacement battery is CR2450.

NOTE:

Perchlorate Material – special handling may apply. See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate for further information.

1.Remove the back cover of the key fob by inserting a flat-blade screw driver into the slot on the bottom of the fob. Apply light pressure until the cover unsnaps being careful not to damage theseal. Proceed counter-clockwise (in the order shown below) to loosen the remaining snaps until the battery cover can be removed.

Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be repurposed and reprogrammed to another vehicle.

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 programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be programmed 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.
