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
specifications and/or make additions to or improvements to its products without imposing
any obligation upon itself to install them on products previously manufactured.
The User Guide has been prepared to help you quickly become acquainted with the
important features of your vehicle. It contains most everything 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.

wireless features, try disconnecting your aftermarket devices to see if the situation
improves. If your symptoms persist, please see an authorized dealer.

12
GETTING STARTED
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.
• 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 airbag 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) —

AIRBAGS
• This vehicle has Advanced Front Airbags for both the driver and right front passenger
as a supplement to the seat belt restraint system. The Advanced Front Airbags will not
deploy in every type of collision.
• Advanced Front Airbags are designed to provide additional protection by
supplementing the seat belts in certain frontal collisions depending on the severity and
type of collision. Advanced Front Airbags are not expected to reduce the risk of injury
in rear, side, or rollover collisions.
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable Curtains to protect
the driver, front and rear passengers sitting next to a window.
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Airbags to provide
enhanced protection to help protect an occupant during a side impact.
13
GETTING STARTED
• If the Airbag 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).
WARNING!
• Relying on the airbags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision.
The airbags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions,
the airbags won't deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you
have airbags.
• Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced Front
Airbag deployment could cause serious injury, including death. Airbags need
room to inflate. Sit back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the steering
wheel or instrument panel.
• Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable Curtains and Supplemental Seat-Mounted
Side Airbags 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 Airbag Inflatable Curtain and/or
Seat-Mounted Side Airbag during deployment could cause you to be severely
injured or killed.
• Do not drive your vehicle after the airbags have deployed. If you are involved in
another collision, the airbags 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
anchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren.
• All three rear 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.
• Never install LATCH-compatible child seats such that two seats share a common lower
anchorage.
14
GETTING STARTED
• 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, pushing
aside the seat cover material. The rear seat lower anchorages are round bars, located
at the rear of the seat cushion where it meets the seatback. The rear seat lower
anchors can be readily identified by the symbol located on the seatback directly
above the anchorages and are just visible when you lean into the rear seat to install
the child restraint.
• 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 all three straps as you push the
child restraint rearward and downward
into the seat.
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.
15
GETTING STARTED
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 airbag. An airbag deployment could cause infants in this
position to be severely injured or killed.
FRONT SEATS
Power Seats
• The recline switch, located on the
outboard side of the seat, controls
seatback adjustment.
• The power seat switch controls
forward/back, up/down and tilt
adjustment.
Power Lumbar
• Push the switch forward to increase the
lumbar support. Push the switch
rearward to decrease the lumbar
support.

• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information.
26
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.
• May not detect a vehicle ahead when strong light (for example, sunrise or
sunset) is directly shining on the front of the vehicle.
• 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.
27
ELECTRONIC RANGE SELECTION (ERS)
• Electronic Range Select (ERS) allows you
to limit the highest available
transmission gear, and can be activated
during any driving condition. When
towing a trailer or operating the vehicle
in off-road conditions, using ERS shift
control will help you maximize both
performance and engine braking.
• To switch from DRIVE mode to ERS mode, tap the shift lever to the left (-) once. The
instrument cluster will display the current gear (the transmission may downshift), and
the transmission will not upshift beyond that gear. Tapping the shift lever to the left (-)
or right (+) will decrease or increase the top available gear. To disable ERS, simply
hold the shift lever to the right (+) until “D” is again displayed in the instrument cluster.
• Switching between ERS and DRIVE mode can be done at any vehicle speed.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

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
Monitoring 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 illuminates, 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.
63
• 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.
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.
• We recommend you drive to the nearest service center and have the 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.
64
- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation/Malfunction
Indicator Light
• If the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” comes on continuously with the
engine running, a malfunction has been detected in the ESC system. If this light
remains on after several ignition cycles, and the vehicle has been driven several miles
(kilometers) at speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), we recommend you drive to
the nearest service center and have the vehicle serviced immediately.
• The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” starts to flash as soon as the tires
lose traction and the ESC system becomes active. If the light begins to flash during
acceleration, ease up on the accelerator and apply as little throttle as possible. Be sure
to adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road conditions. The light also
flashes when TCS is active. To improve the vehicle's traction when starting off in deep
snow, sand or gravel, it may be desirable to switch the ESC system to Partial Off
mode by momentarily pressing the ESC Off switch located below the climate
controls, on the switch panel.
- Charging System Light

• This light shows the status of the electrical charging system. If the charging system light
remains on, it means that the vehicle is experiencing a problem with the charging
system.
• We recommend you do not continue driving if the charging system light is on. Have
the vehicle serviced immediately.
- Oil Pressure Warning Light

• This light indicates low engine oil pressure. If the light turns on while driving, stop the
vehicle and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A chime will sound for four
minutes when this light turns on.
• We recommend you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have the
vehicle serviced immediately.
- Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light

• This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS).
• If the light is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, we
recommend you drive to the nearest service center and have the vehicle serviced
immediately.
- Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light

• This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system.
• If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the engine is running. Cycle the
ignition key when the vehicle has completely stopped and the shift lever is placed in
the PARK position; the light should turn off.
• If the light remains lit with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable;
however, see an authorized service center immediately. If the light is flashing when the
engine is running, immediate service is required and you may experience reduced
performance, an elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may require
towing.
65
- Airbag Warning Light
• If the light is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, have the
vehicle serviced by an authorized service center immediately.
Fuel Cap/Loose Gas Cap Message

• If a “gas cap” message (shown as Check Gascap) appears, tighten the gas cap until a
“clicking” sound is heard.
• If the message continues to appear for more than three days after tightening the gas
cap, have the vehicle serviced by an authorized service center immediately.
Oil Change Indicator

Message
• If an “oil change” message (shown as Oil Change Required) appears and a single
chime sounds, it is time for your next required oil change.
Resetting The Light After Servicing
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position (do not start engine).
• Fully depress the accelerator pedal three times within 10 seconds.
• Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position.
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, shift transmission into 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 Fan 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.
• If the temperature reading does not return to normal, turn the engine off immediately.
• We recommend that you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have
the vehicle serviced immediately.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the temperature
gauge reads HOT (H), pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range. If the
pointer remains on HOT (H), and you hear continuous chimes, turn the engine off
immediately and call for service.
66
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.
JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING

Jack Location
• The scissor-type jack and tire changing tools are located in the rear cargo area,
below the load floor.
Spare Tire Stowage

• The spare tire is located under the load floor in the rear cargo area.
67
Preparations For Jacking
• Park on a firm, level surface. Avoid ice or slippery areas.
• Set the parking brake and shift the automatic transmission into PARK.
• Turn the ignition to LOCK and turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
• Block both the front and rear of the
wheel diagonally opposite of the jacking
position. For example, if changing the
right front tire, block the left rear wheel.
NOTE: Passengers should not remain in the
vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked.
Jacking And Tire Changing Instructions

• Remove the spare tire, jack and tools from their stored location.
• Loosen (but do not remove) the wheel lug nuts by turning them counterclockwise one
turn while the wheel is still on the ground.
• Assemble the jack and jacking tools. Connect the jack handle driver to the extension,
then to the lug wrench.
• Place the jack:
• For front wheels, place the jack and protective cap right under the triangle on the
body flange, just behind the front tire.
• For rear wheels, place the jack and
protective cap right under the triangle
on the rear tie-down bracket, just
forward of the rear tire.
68
• Turn the jack screw clockwise to firmly
engage the jack saddle with the lift
area of the sill flange.
• Raise the vehicle by turning the jack
screw clockwise. Raise the vehicle only
until the tire just clears the surface and
enough clearance is obtained to install
the spare tire.
• Remove the lug nuts, wheel cover (if
equipped) and wheel.
• Position the spare wheel/tire on the vehicle and install the lug nuts with the
cone-shaped end toward the wheel. Do NOT attempt to install a center cap or wheel
cover on the compact spare. Lightly tighten the lug nuts clockwise. To avoid the risk of
forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not tighten the nuts fully until the vehicle has been
lowered.
• Lower the vehicle by turning the jack screw counterclockwise, and remove the jack
and wheel blocks.
• Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while tightening for increased
leverage. Alternate nuts until each one has been tightened twice. The correct wheel
nut tightness is 110 ft lbs (150 N•m). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have
them checked with a torque wrench by your authorized dealer or at a service station.
• Secure the tire, jack, and tools in their proper locations.
NOTE: Tire should be stowed with the “beauty” side up. Storing the tire upside down
may result in scratching or damage to the wheel face.
WARNING!
• 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.
• Getting under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the
jack and fall on you. You could be crushed. Never get 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 use 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.
(Continued)
69
• If it is necessary to retrieve the spare tire from under the vehicle on the side of
the vehicle close to moving traffic, pull far enough off the road to avoid the
danger of being hit.
• Carefully follow these tire changing procedures to help prevent personal injury
or damage to your vehicle: Always park on a firm, level surface as far from the
edge of the roadway as possible before raising the vehicle.
• Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the vehicle less stable and
could cause it to slip off the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the vehicle
only enough to remove the tire.
• 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.
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
instructions and precautions.
Preparations for Jump-Start

• The battery in your vehicle is located
under 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 ignition to LOCK.
• Turn off the heater, radio, and all
unnecessary electrical accessories.
• Remove the protective cover over the
remote 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.
Jump-Starting Procedure
• Connect the positive (+) end of the jumper cable to the remote positive (+) post of the
discharged vehicle.
70
• Connect the opposite end of the positive (+) jumper cable to the positive (+) post of
the booster battery.
• 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.
• 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.
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 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.
(Continued)
71
• 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 and the rear.
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 and chains may
break, causing serious injury.
72
SHIFT LEVER OVERRIDE
• If a malfunction occurs and the shift
lever cannot be moved out of the PARK
position, you can use the following
procedure to temporarily move the shift
lever:
• To access the shift lever override,
remove the rubber cupholder liner to
the right of the shift lever.
• Firmly set the parking brake.
• Turn the ignition switch to the ACC or
ON position without starting the
engine.
• Press and maintain firm pressure on
the brake pedal.
• Using a screwdriver or similar tool, press and hold the override tab through the

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 enforcement, 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.
75
OPENING THE HOOD
• Pull the hood release lever located below
the steering wheel at the base of the

WARNING!
Be sure the hood is fully latched before driving your vehicle. If the hood is not fully
latched, it could open when the vehicle is in motion and block your vision. Failure
to follow this warning could result in serious injury or death.
FUEL DOOR RELEASE

• The fuel door release button is located
on the instrument panel below the
headlight switch.
• Push the button once and release to
open the fuel door.

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.
86
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
recommended 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 protective finish. Only MOPAR® Wheel Cleaner or equivalent is
recommended.

you should not attempt to service a headlamp bulb yourself. If a headlamp bulb fails, take
your vehicle to an authorized dealer for service.

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.
