The driver’s primary responsibility is the safe operation of the vehicle. Driving while distracted can
result in loss of vehicle control, resulting in a collision and personal injury. Chrysler Group LLC
strongly recommends that the driver use extreme caution when using any device or feature that may
take their attention off the road. Use of any electrical devices such as cell phones, computers,
portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices by the driver while the vehicle is moving is
dangerous and could lead to a serious collision. Texting while driving is also dangerous and should
never be done while the vehicle is moving. If you find yourself unable to devote your full attention to
vehicle operation, pull off the road to a safe location and stop your vehicle. Some States or Provinces
prohibit the use of cellular telephones or texting while driving. It is always the driver’s responsibility
to comply with all local laws.

INTRODUCTION/WELCOME

WELCOME FROM CHRYSLER GROUP LLC


Congratulations on selecting your new Chrysler Group LLC vehicle. Be assured that it
represents precision workmanship, distinctive styling, and high quality - all essentials that
are traditional to our vehicles.
Your new Chrysler Group LLC vehicle has characteristics to enhance the driver's control
under some driving conditions. These are to assist the driver and are never a substitute for
attentive driving. They can never take the driver's place. Always drive carefully.
Your new vehicle has many features for the comfort and convenience of you and your
passengers. Some of these should not be used when driving because they take your eyes
from the road or your attention from driving. Never text while driving or take your eyes more
than momentarily off the road.
This guide illustrates and describes the operation of features and equipment that are either
standard or optional on this vehicle. This guide may also include a description of features
and equipment that are no longer available or were not ordered on this vehicle. Please
disregard any features and equipment described in this guide that are not available on this
vehicle. Chrysler Group LLC reserves the right to make changes in design and specifica-
tions and/or make additions to or improvements to its products without imposing any
obligation upon itself to install them on products previously manufactured.
This User Guide has been prepared to help you quickly become acquainted with the
important features of your vehicle. It contains most things you will need to operate and
maintain the vehicle, including emergency information.
The DVD includes a computer application containing detailed owner's information which
can be viewed on a personal computer or MAC computer. The multimedia DVD also includes
videos which can be played on any standard DVD player (including the Media Center
Touch-Screen Radios). Additional DVD operational information is located on the back of the
DVD sleeve.
For complete owner information, refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD in the owner’s
kit provided at the time of new vehicle purchase. For your convenience, the information
contained on the DVD may also be printed and saved for future reference.
Chrysler Group LLC is committed to protecting our environment and natural resources. By
converting from paper to electronic delivery for the majority of the user information for your
vehicle, together we greatly reduce the demand for tree-based products and lessen the
stress on our environment.

or damage.
• When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key fob from the ignition 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 unattended is dangerous for a number of reasons.
A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should be warned not
to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the shift lever.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, and do not leave a vehicle equipped

and can cause you or others to be severely injured or killed when inhaled.
• Keep Key Fob transmitters away from children. Operation of the Remote Start System,
windows, door locks or other controls could cause you and others to be severely injured
or killed.

THEFT ALARM
To Arm
• Keyless Enter-N-Go™ button installed: Press the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ Start/Stop but-
ton until the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) indicates that the vehicle
ignition is “OFF”. Press the power door lock switch while the door is open, press the Key
Fob LOCK button, or with one of the Key Fobs located outside the vehicle and within 5 ft
(1.5 m) of the driver's and passenger front door handles, press the Keyless Enter-N-Go™
LOCK button located on the door handle.
• Keyless Enter-N-Go™ button not installed: Turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” position.
Press the power door lock switch while the door is open, press the Key Fob LOCK button,
or with one of the Key Fobs located outside the vehicle and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver's
and passenger front door handles, press the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ LOCK button located
on the door handle.
NOTE:
After pressing the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ LOCK button, you must wait two seconds before
you can lock or unlock the vehicle via the door handle.
To Disarm
• Keyless Enter-N-Go™ button installed: Press the Key Fob UNLOCK button or with one of
the Key Fobs located outside the vehicle and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver's and
passenger front door handles, grab the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ door handle and enter the
vehicle, then press the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ Start/Stop button (requires at least one valid
Key Fob in the vehicle).

SEAT BELT
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
• Position the lap belt across your thighs, below your abdomen. To remove slack in the lap
portion, pull up a bit on the shoulder belt. To loosen the lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch
plate and pull on the lap belt. A snug belt reduces the risk of sliding under the belt in a
collision.
• Position the shoulder belt on your chest so that it is comfortable and not resting on your
neck. The retractor will withdraw any slack in the belt.
• A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during a collision. You
are more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not wear your shoulder belt. The lap
and shoulder belt are meant to be used together.

16
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine
GETTING STARTED
• A belt that is too loose will not protect you properly. In a sudden stop you could move too
far forward, increasing the possibility of injury. Wear your seat belt snugly.
• A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection. Inspect
the belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts. Damaged parts must
be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the system. Seat belt assemblies
must be replaced after a collision if they have been damaged (bent retractor, torn
webbing, etc.).
• The seat belts for both front seating positions are equipped with pretensioning devices
that are designed to remove slack from the seat belt in the event of a collision.
• A deployed pretensioner or a deployed air bag must be replaced immediately.

WARNING!
In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not
buckled up properly. You can strike the interior of your vehicle or other passengers, or you
can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others in your vehicle are
buckled up properly.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) — AIR BAGS


• This vehicle has Advanced Front Air Bags for both the driver and right front passenger as
a supplement to the seat belt restraint system. The Advanced Front Air Bags will not
deploy in every type of collision.
• Advanced Front Air Bags are designed to provide additional protection by supplementing
the seat belts in certain frontal collisions depending on several factors, including the
severity and type of collision. Advanced Front Air Bags are not expected to reduce the risk
of injury in rear, side, or rollover collisions.
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains to protect the
driver, front and rear passengers sitting next to a window.
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags to provide
enhanced protection to help protect an occupant during a side impact.
• If the Air Bag Warning Light is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while
driving, have the vehicle serviced by an authorized service center immediately.
• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details regarding the Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS).

GETTING STARTED

WARNING!
• Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The air
bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions, the air bags
won't deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you have air bags.
• Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced Front Air
Bag deployment could cause serious injury, including death. Air bags need room to
inflate. Sit back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the steering wheel or
instrument panel.
• Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains and Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side
Air Bags need room to inflate. Do not lean against the door or window. Sit upright in
the center of the seat.
• Being too close to the Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtain and/or Seat-
Mounted Side Air Bag during deployment could cause you to be severely injured or
killed.
• Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed. If you are involved in
another collision, the air bags will not be in place to protect you.
• After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer immediately.

CHILD RESTRAINTS
• Children 12 years and under should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, if available.
According to crash statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seats
rather than in the front.
• Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small children
ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it.
Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System
• Your vehicle's second row passenger seats are equipped with the child restraint anchor-
age system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for CHildren.
• Second and third row seating positions have lower anchorages that are capable of
accommodating LATCH-compatible child seats having flexible, webbing-mounted lower
attachments.
• Child seats with fixed lower attachments must be installed in the outboard positions only.
• The vehicle's seat belt must be used for the center position.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine
GETTING STARTED
• Never install LATCH-compatible child seats such that two seats share a common lower
anchorage.
• Loosen the child seat adjusters on the
lower straps and tether straps so that you
can attach the hook or connector to the
lower tether anchorages more easily.
• Attach the lower hooks or connectors over
the top of the anchorage bars. The rear
seat lower anchorages are round bars, lo-
cated at the rear of the seat cushion where
it meets the seatback.

• The tether strap should be attached to the tether anchor on the rear of the seatback
(behind the gap panel) using the most direct path. DO NOT USE the cargo tie down loops
located on the load floor.
• Tighten both straps as you push the child
restraint rearward and downward into the
seat.

GETTING STARTED
Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
• To install a child restraint, first pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to
route it through the belt path of the child restraint and slide the seat belt latch plate into
the buckle.
• Next, extract all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor and then allow the belt to retract
into the retractor. Finally, pull on any excess webbing to tighten the lap portion around the
child restraint. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally,
and pull it tight if necessary.
• Once you have completed securing the child restraint with the seat belt, secure the top
tether strap. The tether strap should be attached to the tether anchor on the rear of the
seatback (behind the gap panel) using the most direct path. DO NOT USE the cargo tie
down loops located on the load floor.

WARNING!
• In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projectile inside
the vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on your lap could become so
great that you could not hold the child, no matter how strong you are. The child and
others could be severely injured or killed. Any child riding in your vehicle should be in
a proper restraint for the child's size.
• Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages can lead to failure
of an infant or child restraint. The child could be severely injured or killed. Follow the
manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant or child restraint.
• An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and
possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly behind the child
seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap.
• Rearward-facing child seats must never be used in the front seat of a vehicle with a
front passenger air bag. An air bag deployment could cause severe injury or death to
infants in this position.

ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS


• A long break-in period is not required for the engine and drivetrain (transmission and axle)
in your vehicle.
• Drive moderately during the first 300 miles (500 km). After the initial 60 miles (100 km),
speeds up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or 90 km/h) are desirable.
• While cruising, brief full-throttle acceleration within the limits of local traffic laws contrib-
utes to a good break-in. Wide-open throttle acceleration in low gear can be detrimental and
should be avoided.
• The engine oil installed in the engine at the factory is a high-quality energy conserving
type lubricant. Oil changes should be consistent with anticipated climate conditions
under which vehicle operations will occur. For the recommended viscosity and quality
grades, refer to “Maintaining Your Vehicle”.
NOTE:
A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of
operation. This should be considered a normal part of the break-in and not interpreted as an
indication of difficulty.

CAUTION!
Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may result.

Changing FCW Status
• The FCW feature has three settings and can be changed within the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC):
• Far
• Near
• Off

NOTE:
The FCW settings can only be changed when the vehicle is in PARK.
Far
• The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting.
• The far setting provides warnings for potential collisions more distant in front of the
vehicle, allowing the driver to have the most reaction time to avoid a collision.
• This setting is designed to provide early warnings per NHTSA (National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration) recommendations.
• More cautious drivers that do not mind frequent warnings may prefer this setting.

NOTE:
This setting gives you the most reaction time.
Near
• Changing the FCW status to the “Near” setting, allows the system to warn you of a
potential frontal collision when you are much closer.
• This setting provides less reaction time than the “Far” setting, which allows for a more
dynamic driving experience.
• More dynamic or aggressive drivers that want to avoid frequent warnings may prefer this
setting.
Off
• Changing the FCW status to “Off” prevents the system from warning you of a potential
frontal collision.

NOTE:
• If FCW is set to “Off”, “FCW OFF” will be displayed in the EVIC.
• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

WARNING!
• Leaving the Electronic or Adaptive Speed Control system on when not in use is
dangerous. You could accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster than you
want. You could lose control and have a collision. Always leave the Electronic or
Adaptive Speed Control system off when you are not using it.
• Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the system cannot maintain a
constant speed. Your vehicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you could lose
control. A collision could be the result. Do not use Electronic Speed Control in heavy
traffic or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery.
• Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a convenience system. It is not a substitute for
active driving involvement. Pay attention to road, traffic, and weather conditions,
vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle ahead, and brake operation to ensure safe
operation of the vehicle under all road conditions. Your attention is always required
while driving to maintain safe control of your vehicle. Failure to follow these warnings
can result in a collision or serious personal injury.
The ACC system:
• Does not react to pedestrians, oncoming vehicles, and stationary objects (i.e., a
stopped vehicle in a traffic jam or a disabled vehicle).
• Cannot take street, traffic, and weather conditions into account, and may be limited
upon adverse sight distance conditions.
• Does not predict the lane curvature or the movement of preceding vehicles and will
not compensate for such changes.
• Does not always fully recognize complex driving conditions, which can result in
wrong or missing distance warnings.
• Can only apply a maximum of 25% of the vehicle’s braking capability, and will not
bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
You should switch off the ACC system:
• When driving in fog, heavy rain, heavy snow, sleet, heavy traffic, and complex driving
situations (i.e., in highway construction zones).
• When entering a turn lane or highway off ramp; when driving on roads that are
winding, icy, snow-covered, slippery, or have steep uphill or downhill slopes; and
when towing a trailer.
• When circumstances do not allow safe driving at a constant speed.
• Failure to follow these warnings can result in a collision.
• Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not intended to avoid a collision on its own. The
driver has the responsibility to avoid a collision by controlling the vehicle via braking
and steering. Failure to follow this warning could lead to serious injury or death.

in the Accessory or Run position, for vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go).
Occupants, particularly unattended children, can become entrapped by the power
sunroof while operating the power sunroof switch. Such entrapment may result in
serious injury or death.
• In a collision, there is a greater risk of being thrown from a vehicle with an open
sunroof. You could also be severely injured or killed. Always fasten your seat belt
properly and make sure all passengers are properly secured.
• Do not allow small children to operate the sunroof. Never allow your fingers, other
body parts, or any object to project through the sunroof opening. Injury may result.

WIND BUFFETING
• Wind buffeting can be described as a helicopter-type percussion sound. If buffeting
occurs with the rear windows open, adjust the front and rear windows together.
• If buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening, or adjust any
window. This will minimize buffeting.

OFF-ROAD CAPABILITIES

ALL-WHEEL DRIVE OPERATION


Single-Speed Operating Instructions/Precautions
• This system contains a single-speed (HI range only) transfer case, which provides conve-
nient full-time all-wheel drive. No driver interaction is required. The Brake Traction Control
(BTC) System, which combines standard ABS and Traction Control, provides resistance to
any wheel that is slipping to allow additional torque transfer to wheels with traction.

NOTE:
This system is not appropriate for conditions where AWD LOW range is recommended. Refer
to “Off-Road Driving Tips” in “Starting and Operating” on the DVD for further information.

Electronically Shifted Transfer Case (Three-Position Switch)


• This is an electronic shift transfer case and
is operated by the AWD Control Switch
(Transfer Case Switch), which is located on
the center console.
• This electronically shifted transfer case
provides three mode positions:
• All-wheel drive automatic range (AWD
AUTO)
• All-wheel drive low range (LOW RANGE)
• Neutral (NEUTRAL)

• When additional traction is required, the LOW RANGE position can be used to lock the
front and rear driveshafts together forcing the front and rear wheels to rotate at the same
speed. The LOW RANGE position are designed for loose, slippery road surfaces only.
Driving in the LOW RANGE positions on dry hard surfaced roads may cause increased tire
wear and damage to the driveline components.
• When operating your vehicle in LOW RANGE, the engine speed is approximately three
times that of the AWD HI position at a given road speed. Take care not to overspeed the
engine and do not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h).

NOTE:
The “SERV AWD Warning Light” monitors the electronic shift all-wheel drive system. If this
light remains on after engine start up or illuminates during driving, it means that the
all-wheel drive system is not functioning properly and that service is required.

Shifting Procedures
AWD AUTO To LOW RANGE

NOTE:
When shifting into or out of LOW RANGE some gear noise may be heard. This noise is
normal and is not detrimental to the vehicle or occupants.
• Shifting can be performed with the vehicle rolling 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h) or completely
stopped. Use either of the following procedures:
Preferred Procedure
• With the engine running, slow the vehicle to 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h).
• Shift the transmission into NEUTRAL.
• While still rolling, rotate the transfer case control switch to the desired position.
• After the desired position indicator light is ON (not flashing), shift the transmission back
into gear.
Alternate Procedure
• Bring the vehicle to complete stop.
• With the ignition switch in the ON position and the engine either OFF or running, shift the
transmission into NEUTRAL.
• Rotate the transfer case control switch to the desired position.
• After the desired position indicator light is ON (not flashing), shift the transmission back
into gear.
NOTE:
• If Steps 1 or 2 of either the Preferred or Alternate Procedure are not satisfied prior to
attempting the shift or if they no longer are being met while the shift attempt is in
process, the desired position indicator light will flash continuously while the original
position indicator light is ON, until all requirements have been met.
• The ignition switch must be in the ON position for a shift to take place and for the position
indicator lights to be operable. If the ignition switch is not in the ON position, then the shift
will not take place and no position indicator lights will be on or flashing.

WARNING!
• Always engage the parking brake when powering down the vehicle if the “SERV AWD
Warning Light” is illuminated. Not engaging the parking brake may allow the vehicle to
roll which may cause personal injury.
• You or others could be injured if you leave the vehicle unattended with the transfer case
in the NEUTRAL position without first fully engaging the parking brake. The transfer case
NEUTRAL position disengages both the front and rear driveshafts from the powertrain
and will allow the vehicle to move regardless of the transmission position. The parking
brake should always be applied when the driver is not in the vehicle.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WARNING LIGHTS


- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Light
• Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly, when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size
than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should
determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
• As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your
tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illu-
minates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the
proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat
and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
• IF THE LIGHT STARTS FLASHING INDICATING A LOW TIRE PRESSURE, ADJUST THE
AIR PRESSURE IN THE LOW TIRE TO THE AIR PRESSURE SHOWN ON THE VEHICLE
PLACARD OR TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE LABEL LOCATED ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR.
NOTE: AFTER INFLATION, THE VEHICLE MAY NEED TO BE DRIVEN FOR 20 MINUTES
BEFORE THE FLASHING LIGHT WILL TURN OFF.
• Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the
driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
• Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the
low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will
continue each time the vehicle is restarted as long as the malfunction exists.
• When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or
signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale
after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle, to ensure that the replacement
or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
NOTE:
Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per 12° F (7° C) of air temperature
change. Keep this in mind when checking tire pressure inside a garage, especially in the
Winter. Example: If garage temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the outside temperature is 32°F
(0°C), then the cold tire inflation pressure should be increased by 3 psi (21 kPa), which equals
1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (7°C) for this outside temperature condition.

CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle.
Undesirable system operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement
equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket wheels can cause
sensor damage. Do not use tire sealant from a can, or balance beads if your vehicle is
equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may result.

BRAKE - Brake Warning Light

• The Brake Warning light illuminates when there is either a system malfunction or the
parking brake is applied. If the light is on and the parking brake is not applied, it indicates
a possible brake hydraulic malfunction, brake booster problem or an Anti-Lock Brake
System problem.
• Please have your vehicle serviced immediately.

WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake system may
have failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have a collision. Have the
vehicle checked immediately.

- Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)


• Certain conditions, such as a loose or missing gas cap, poor fuel quality, etc., may
illuminate the MIL after engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on
through several typical driving cycles. In most situations, the vehicle will drive normally
and not require towing.
• If the MIL flashes when the engine is running, serious conditions may exist that could lead
to immediate loss of power or severe catalytic converter damage. We recommend you do
not operate the vehicle. Have the vehicle serviced immediately.

IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS


• In any of the following situations, you can reduce the potential for overheating by taking
the appropriate action.
• On the highways — slow down.
• In city traffic — while stopped, place the transmission in NEUTRAL, but do not increase
engine idle speed.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow down an impending overheat condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The A/C system adds heat to the engine
cooling system and turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
• You can also turn the temperature control to maximum heat, the mode control to floor
and the blower control to high. This allows the heater core to act as a supplement to the
radiator and aids in removing heat from the engine cooling system.

CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the temperature gauge
reads 240°F (116 °C) or greater pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range 200–230°F
(93–110°C). If the pointer remains at 240°F (116°C) or greater and you hear a chime, turn
the engine off immediately and call for service.

WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by hot engine coolant (antifreeze) or steam from your
radiator. If you see or hear steam coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until
the radiator has had time to cool. Never try to open a cooling system pressure cap when
the radiator or coolant bottle is hot.

• Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the vehicle close to moving traffic. Pull
far enough off the road to avoid the danger of being hit when operating the jack or
changing the wheel.
• Being under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the jack and
fall on you. You could be crushed. Never put any part of your body under a vehicle that
is on a jack. If you need to get under a raised vehicle, take it to a service center where
it can be raised on a lift.
• The jack is designed to be used as a tool for changing tires only. The jack should not
be used to lift the vehicle for service purposes. The vehicle should be jacked on a firm
level surface only. Avoid ice or slippery areas.
• Always park on a firm, level surface as far from the edge of the roadway as possible
before raising the vehicle.
• Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
• Block the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be raised.
• Set the parking brake firmly and set the automatic transmission in PARK.
• Never start or run the engine with the vehicle on a jack.
• Do not let anyone sit in the vehicle when it is on a jack.
• Do not get under the vehicle when it is on a jack.
• Only use the jack in the positions indicated and for lifting this vehicle during a tire
change.
• If working on or near a roadway, be extremely careful of motor traffic.
• To assure that spare tires, flat or inflated, are securely stowed, spares must be
stowed with the valve stem facing the ground. Carefully follow these tire changing
warnings to help prevent personal injury or damage to your vehicle:
• Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the vehicle less stable. It
could slip off the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the vehicle only enough
to remove the tire.
• To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not fully tighten the
wheel nuts until the vehicle has been lowered. Failure to follow this warning
may result in personal injury.
•Do not use power tools to winch the tire up or down. Impact-type tools may damage
the winch mechanism.
• A loose tire or jack, thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could endanger
the occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in
the places provided.
• To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not tighten the lug nuts
fully until the vehicle is lowered to the ground.

BATTERY LOCATION
• The battery in your vehicle is located under the passenger's front seat. Remote battery
posts are located on the right side of the engine compartment for jump-starting.

JUMP-STARTING
• If your vehicle has a discharged battery it can be jump-started using a set of jumper
cables and a battery in another vehicle or by using a portable battery booster pack.
• Jump-starting can be dangerous if done improperly so please follow the procedures in
this section carefully.
NOTE:
When using a portable battery booster pack follow the manufacturer’s operating instruc-
tions and precautions.
Preparations for Jump-Start
• The battery in your vehicle is located un-
der the passengers front seat. There are
remote locations under the hood to assist
in jump starting.
• Set the parking brake, shift the automatic
transmission into PARK and turn the igni-
tion to OFF.
• Turn off the heater, radio, and all unneces-
sary electrical accessories.
• Remove the protective cover over the re-
mote positive (+) battery post. Pull upward
on the cover to remove it.

• If using another vehicle to jump-start the battery, park the vehicle within the jumper
cables reach, set the parking brake and make sure the ignition is OFF.

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
Jump-Starting Procedure
• Connect the positive (+) end of the jumper cable to the remote positive (+) post of the
discharged vehicle.
• Connect the opposite end of the positive (+) jumper cable to the positive (+) post of the
booster battery.
• Remove the protective cap from the negative jump post. Connect the negative end (-)of
the jumper cable to the negative (-) post of the booster battery.
• Connect the opposite end of the negative (-) jumper cable to the remote negative (-) post
of the vehicle with the discharged battery.
• Start the engine in the vehicle that has the booster battery, let the engine idle a few
minutes, and then start the engine in the vehicle with the discharged battery.
• Once the engine is started, remove the jumper cables in the reverse sequence:
• Disconnect the negative (-) jumper cable from the remote negative (-) post of the vehicle
with the discharged battery. Replace the protective cap.
• Disconnect the negative end (-) of the jumper cable from the negative (-) post of the
booster battery.
• Disconnect the opposite end of the positive (+) jumper cable from the positive (+)post of
the booster battery.
• Disconnect the positive (+) end of the jumper cable from the remote positive (+) post of
the discharged vehicle.
• Reinstall the protective cover over the remote positive (+) battery post of the discharged
vehicle.
• If frequent jump-starting is required to start your vehicle you should have the battery and
charging system inspected at your authorized dealer.

CAUTION!
• Do not use a portable battery booster pack or any other booster source with a system
voltage greater than 12 Volts or damage to the battery, starter motor, alternator or
electrical system may occur.
• Failure to follow these procedures could result in damage to the charging system of
the booster vehicle or the discharged vehicle.
• Accessories that can be plugged into the vehicle power outlets draw power from the
vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if
plugged in long enough, the vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the engine from starting.

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

WARNING!
• When temperatures are below the freezing point, electrolyte in a discharged battery
may freeze. Do not attempt jump-starting because the battery could rupture or
explode and cause personal injury. Battery temperature must be brought above the
freezing point before attempting a jump-start.
• Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan whenever the hood is raised. It can start
anytime the ignition switch is on. You can be injured by moving fan blades.
• Remove any metal jewelry, such as watch bands or bracelets, that might make an
inadvertent electrical contact. You could be severely injured.
• Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can burn your skin or eyes and generate hydrogen
gas which is flammable and explosive. Keep open flames or sparks away from the
battery.
• Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as this could establish a ground connection
and personal injury could result.
• Failure to follow this procedure could result in personal injury or property damage
due to battery explosion.
• Do not connect the cable to the negative post (-) of the discharged battery. The
resulting electrical spark could cause the battery to explode and could result in
personal injury.

EMERGENCY TOW HOOKS


• If your vehicle is equipped with tow hooks, they are mounted in the front.
NOTE:
For off-road recovery, it is recommended to use both of the front tow hooks to minimize the
risk of damage to the vehicle.

CAUTION!
Tow hooks are for emergency use only, to rescue a vehicle stranded off-road. Do not use
tow hooks for tow truck hookup or highway towing. You could damage your vehicle. Tow
straps are recommended when towing the vehicle; chains may cause vehicle damage.

WARNING!
• Chains are not recommended for freeing a stuck vehicle. Chains may break, causing
serious injury or death.
• Stand clear of vehicles when pulling with tow hooks. Tow straps may become
disengaged, causing serious injury.

EVENT DATA RECORDER (EDR)


• This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data Recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR
is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment
or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems
performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety
systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is
designed to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
• These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE:
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are
recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g. name,
gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforce-
ment, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely
acquired during a crash investigation.
• To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle
or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties such as law
enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have
access to the vehicle or the EDR.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil change indicator system. The oil change
indicator system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for scheduled
maintenance.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change indicator message will illuminate.
This means that service is required for your vehicle. Operating conditions such as frequent
short-trips, trailer tow, extremely hot or cold ambient temperatures, and E85 fuel usage will
influence when the “Oil Change Required” message is displayed. Severe Operating Condi-
tions can cause the change oil message to illuminate as early as 3,500 miles (5,600 km)
since last reset. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible, within the next 500 miles
(805 km).

CAUTION!
• When installing the integrated power module cover, it is important to ensure the
cover is properly positioned and fully latched. Failure to do so may allow water to get
into the integrated power module, and possibly result in a electrical system failure.
• When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to use only a fuse having the correct
amperage rating. The use of a fuse with a rating other than indicated may result in a
dangerous electrical system overload. If a properly rated fuse continues to blow, it
indicates a problem in the circuit that must be corrected.

TIRE PRESSURES
• Check the inflation pressure of each tire, including the spare tire, at least monthly and
inflate to the recommended pressure for your vehicle.
• The tire pressures recommended for your vehicle are found on the “Tire and Loading
Information” label located on the driver’s side door opening.
NOTE:
Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for
more information regarding tire warnings
and instructions.

WARNING!
• Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect
vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recom-
mended load capacity for your vehicle. Never overload them.
• Improperly inflated tires are dangerous and can cause collisions. Under-inflation is
the leading cause of tire failure and may result in severe cracking, component
separation, or “blow out”. Over-inflation reduces a tire’s ability to cushion shock.
Objects on the road and chuck holes can cause damage that results in tire failure.
Unequal tire pressures can cause steering problems. You could lose control of your
vehicle. Over-inflated or under-inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail
suddenly, resulting in loss of vehicle control.

WHEEL AND WHEEL TRIM CARE


• All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome plated wheels, should be
cleaned regularly with a mild soap and water to prevent corrosion.
• To remove heavy soil and/or excessive brake dust, use MOPAR® Wheel Cleaner or
equivalent or select a non-abrasive, non-acidic cleaner.

CAUTION!
Do not use scouring pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, or metal polishes. Do not use oven
cleaner. These products may damage the wheel's protective finish. Avoid automatic car
washes that use acidic solutions or harsh brushes that may damage the wheel's protec-
tive finish. Only MOPAR® Wheel Cleaner or equivalent is recommended.

This guide has been prepared to help you get quickly acquainted with your new
Dodge and to provide a convenient reference source for common questions.
However, it is not a substitute for your Owner’s Manual.
For complete operational instructions, maintenance procedures and important
safety messages, please consult your Owner’s Manual, Navigation/Media

driving and alcohol


Drunken driving is one of the most frequent causes
of accidents. Your driving ability can be seriously impaired with
blood alcohol levels far below the legal minimum. If you are
drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver,
call a cab, a friend, or use public transportation.

WARNING!
Driving after drinking can lead to an accident. Your perceptions
are less sharp, your reflexes are slower, and your judgment is
impaired when you have been drinking. Never drink and then drive.
