The ignition system consists of a key fob with Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) and a START/STOP push button ignition system. The RKE system uses a receiver module in the vehicle that wire-
lessly links with the key fob. NOTE:
The key fob may not be found if it is located next to a mobile phone, laptop or other electronic device; these devices may block the key fobs wireless signal. This system allows you to lock or unlock the doors and liftgate, activate the Panic Alarm, optional power liftgate, left power sliding door, and right power sliding door from distances up to approximately 66 ft (20 m) using a key fob. When any button on the key fob is pushed, or when any signal is being transferred between the key fob and the vehicle, an LED light on the key fob will flash as an indicator. The key fob does not need to be pointed at the vehicle to activate the system. NOTE:
The emergency key allows for entry into the vehicle should the battery in the vehicle or the key fob become depleted. The emergency key is also for locking/unlocking the glove compart-
ment. You can keep the emergency key with you when valet parking. NOTE:
In case the ignition switch does not change with the push of a button, the key fob may have a low or fully depleted battery. A low key fob battery can be verified by referring to the instrument cluster, which will display directions to follow. A low key fob battery condition may be indi-
cated by a message in the instrument cluster display, or by the LED light on the key fob. If the LED key fob light no longer illuminates from key fob button pushes, then the key fob battery requires replacement. The key fob LED light brightness is designed for indoor light viewing, so the LED light may not be visible in direct sunlight. In a situation where the battery is low or fully depleted, a back up method can be used to operate the ignition switch. Put the nose side of the key fob (side opposite of the Emergency Key) against the START/STOP ignition button and push to operate the ignition switch.

The system does not need to be armed or activated. Operation is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked. The system uses a key fob, keyless push button ignition and a Radio Frequency (RF) receiver to prevent unauthorized vehicle operation. There-
fore, only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate the vehicle. The system cannot reprogram a key fob obtained from another vehicle. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 21 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 21 All of the key fobs provided with your new vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle electronics. When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer System serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an authorized dealer. Key Programming General Information After placing the ignition switch in the ON/RUN position, the vehicle security light will turn on for three seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains on after the bulb check, it indicates that there is a problem with the electronics. In addition, if the light begins to flash after the bulb check, it indicates that someone attempted to start the engine with an invalid key fob. In the event that a valid key fob is used to start the engine but there is an issue with the vehicle electronics, the engine will start and shut off after two seconds. If the vehicle security light turns on during normal vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than 10 seconds), it indicates that there is a fault in the electronics. Should this occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by an authorized dealer. CAUTION!
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not compatible with some aftermarket remote starting systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting problems and loss of security protection. Key fob programming is performed at an autho-
rized dealer. Replacement Keys 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. CAUTION!
Always remove the key fobs from the vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended. NOTE:
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. 2 The following regulatory statement applies to all Radio Frequency (RF) devices equipped in this vehicle:

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM IF EQUIPPED The vehicle security alarm monitors the vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and the ignition switch for unauthorized operation. When the alarm is activated, the interior switches for door locks, power sliding doors and power liftgate are disabled. The vehicle security alarm provides both audible and visible signals. If something triggers the alarm, the vehicle secu-
rity alarm will provide the following audible and visible signals: the horn will pulse, the park lamps and/or turn signals will flash, and the vehicle security light in the instrument cluster will flash. To Arm The System Follow these steps to arm the vehicle security alarm:
1. Make sure the vehicles ignition is placed in the OFF position. Refer to "Starting The Engine" in "Starting And Operating" for further information.

The driver's door key cylinder and the liftgate button on the key fob cannot arm or disarm the vehicle security alarm. The vehicle security alarm remains armed during power liftgate entry. Pushing the lift-
gate button will not disarm the vehicle secu-
rity alarm. If someone enters the vehicle through the liftgate and opens any door, the alarm will sound. When the vehicle security alarm is armed, the interior power door lock switches will not unlock the doors. The vehicle security alarm is designed to protect your vehicle. However, you can create condi-
tions where the system will give you a false alarm. If one of the previously described arming sequences has occurred, the vehicle security alarm will arm regardless of whether you are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicle and open a door, the alarm will sound. If this occurs, disarm the vehicle security alarm. If the vehicle security alarm is armed and the battery becomes disconnected, the vehicle security alarm will remain armed when the battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm the vehicle security alarm. Rearming Of The System If something triggers the alarm, and no action is taken to disarm it, the vehicle security alarm will turn the horn off after 29 seconds, 5 seconds between cycles, up to 8 cycles if the trigger remains active and then the vehicle security alarm will rearm itself.

cants in Technical Specifications for proper coolant selection. Use of the air Recirculation mode during Winter months is not recom-
mended, because it may cause window fogging. Vacation/Storage Before you store your vehicle, or keep it out of service (i.e., vacation) for two weeks or more, run the air conditioning system at idle for about five minutes, in fresh air with the blower setting on high. This will ensure adequate system lubri-
cation to minimize the possibility of compressor damage when the system is started again. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 93 Window Fogging Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in mild, rainy, and/or humid weather. To clear the windows, select Defrost or Mix mode and increase the front blower speed. Do not use the Recirculation mode without A/C (air condi-
tioning) for long periods, as fogging may occur. CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause damage to the heating elements:
Use care when washing the inside of the rear window. Do not use abrasive window cleaners on the interior surface of the window. Use a soft cloth and a mild washing solution, wiping parallel to the heating elements. Labels can be peeled off after soaking with warm water. Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments, or abrasive window cleaners on the interior surface of the window. Keep all objects a safe distance from the window. Outside Air Intake Make sure the air intake, located directly in front of the windshield, is free of obstructions such as leaves. Leaves collected in the air intake may reduce airflow, and if they enter the plenum, they could plug the water drains. In Winter months, make sure the air intake is clear of ice, slush, and snow. A/C Air Filter The Climate Control system filters out dust and pollen from the air. Refer to an authorized dealer for filter replacement instructions.

toring of the electrical system and status of the vehicle battery. In cases when the IBS detects charging system failure, or the 12 volt vehicle battery conditions are deteriorating, electrical load reduction actions will take place to extend the driving time and distance of the vehicle. This is done by reducing power to or turning off non-essential 12 volt electrical loads. Load reduction will be functional when the vehicle propulsion system is active. The vehicle may not be running depending on the HV battery SOC or temperature. It will display a message if there is a risk of battery depletion to the point where the vehicle may stall due to lack of electrical supply, or will not restart after the current drive cycle. When 12 volt load reduction is activated, the message Battery Saver On or Battery Saver Mode will appear in the instrument cluster display. These messages indicate the vehicle battery has a low state of charge and continues to lose electrical charge at a rate that the charging system cannot sustain. NOTE:
The charging system is independent from load reduction. The charging system performs a diagnostic on the charging system continuously. If the Battery Charge Warning Light is on it may indicate a problem with the charging system. Refer to Battery Charge Warning Light in this chapter for further information.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Warning Light The warning light switches on and a message is displayed to indicate that the tire pressure is lower than the recommended value and/or that slow pressure loss is occurring. In these cases, optimal tire duration and fuel consumption may not be guaranteed. Should one or more tires be in the condition mentioned above, the display will show the indi-
cations corresponding to each tire. CAUTION!
Do not continue driving with one or more flat tires as handling may be compromised. Stop the vehicle, avoiding sharp braking and steering. If a tire puncture occurs, repair immediately using the dedicated tire repair kit and contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible. 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 pres-
sure 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 pres-
sure. 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 vehicles handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the drivers responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pres-
sure telltale. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 147 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 approxi-
mately one minute and then remain continu-
ously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups 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. 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. Using aftermarket tire sealants may cause the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor to become inoperable. After using an aftermarket tire sealant it is recommended that you take your vehicle to an authorized dealer to have your sensor function checked. GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 147 CAUTION!

If the OBD II system should be determined not ready for the I/M test, your vehicle may fail the test. Your vehicle has a simple ignition actuated test, which you can use prior to going to the test station. To check if your vehicle's OBD II system is ready, you must do the following:
1. Cycle the ignition switch to the ON position, but do not crank or start the engine. NOTE:
If you crank or start the engine, you will have to start this test over. 2. As soon as you cycle the ignition switch to the ON position, you will see the Malfunc-
tion Indicator Light (MIL) symbol come on as part of a normal bulb check. 3. Approximately 15 seconds later, one of two things will happen:
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 151 The MIL will flash for about 10 seconds and then return to being fully illuminated until you turn OFF the ignition or start the engine. This means that your vehicle's OBD II system is not ready and you should not proceed to the I/M station. The MIL will not flash at all and will remain fully illuminated until you place the ignition in the off position or start the engine. This means that your vehicle's OBD II system is ready and you can proceed to the I/M station. 3 If your OBD II system is not ready, you should see an authorized dealer or repair facility. If your vehicle was recently serviced or had a battery failure or replacement, you may need to do nothing more than drive your vehicle as you normally would in order for your OBD II system to update. A recheck with the above test routine may then indicate that the system is now ready. Regardless of whether your vehicle's OBD II system is ready or not, if the MIL is illuminated during normal vehicle operation you should have your vehicle serviced before going to the I/M station. The I/M station can fail your vehicle because the MIL is on with the engine running. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 152 152 SAFETY FEATURES Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) provides increased vehicle stability and brake perfor-
mance under most braking conditions. The system automatically prevents wheel lock, and enhances vehicle control during braking. The ABS performs a self-check cycle to ensure that the ABS is working properly each time the vehicle is started and driven. During this self-check, you may hear a slight clicking sound as well as some related motor noises. ABS is activated during braking when the system detects one or more wheels begin to lock. Road conditions such as ice, snow, gravel, bumps, railroad tracks, loose debris, or panic stops may increase the likelihood of ABS activa-
tion(s). SAFETY You also may experience the following when ABS activates:
The ABS motor noise (it may continue to run for a short time after the stop) The clicking sound of solenoid valves Brake pedal pulsations A slight drop of the brake pedal at the end of the stop NOTE:
These are all normal characteristics of ABS. WARNING!
The ABS contains sophisticated electronic equipment that may be susceptible to inter-
ference caused by improperly installed or high output radio transmitting equipment. This interference can cause possible loss of anti-lock braking capability. Installation of such equipment should be performed by qualified professionals.
(Continued) WARNING! (Continued) Pumping of the Anti-Lock Brakes will diminish their effectiveness and may lead to a collision. Pumping makes the stopping distance longer. Just press firmly on your brake pedal when you need to slow down or stop. The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase braking or steering efficiency beyond that afforded by the condition of the vehicle brakes and tires or the traction afforded. The ABS cannot prevent collisions, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, following another vehicle too closely, or hydroplaning. The capabilities of an ABS equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner that could jeopardize the users safety or the safety of others. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 153 ABS is designed to function with the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) tires. Modifica-
tion may result in degraded ABS performance. Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light The yellow Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light will turn on when the ignition is turned to the ON/RUN mode and may stay on for as long as four seconds. If the Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light remains on or comes on while driving, it indicates that the anti-lock portion of the brake system is not functioning and that service is required. However, the conventional brake system will continue to operate normally if the Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light is on. If the Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light is on, the brake system should be serviced as soon as possible to restore the benefits of anti-lock brakes. If the Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light does not come on when the ignition is turned to the ON/RUN mode, have the light repaired as soon as possible. Electronic Brake Control (EBC) System Your vehicle is equipped with an advanced Elec-
tronic Brake Control (EBC) system. This system includes Electronic Brake Force Distribution
(EBD), Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), Brake Assist System (BAS), Hill Start Assist (HSA), Traction Control System (TCS), Electronic Stability Control (ESC), and Electronic Roll Miti-
gation (ERM). These systems work together to enhance both vehicle stability and control in various driving conditions. Your vehicle may also be equipped with Ready Alert Braking (RAB), Rain Brake Support (RBS), Trailer Sway Control (TSC), and Dynamic Steering Torque (DST). Brake Assist System (BAS) The Brake Assist System (BAS) is designed to optimize the vehicles braking capability during emergency braking maneuvers. The system detects an emergency braking situation by sensing the rate and amount of brake applica-
tion and then applies optimum pressure to the brakes. This can help reduce braking distances. The BAS complements the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS). Applying the brakes very quickly results in the best BAS assistance. To receive the benefit of the system, you must apply continuous braking pressure during the stop-
ping sequence, (do not pump the brakes). Do not reduce brake pedal pressure unless braking is no longer desired. Once the brake pedal is released, the BAS is deactivated. SAFETY 153 WARNING!
The Brake Assist System (BAS) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. BAS cannot prevent collisions, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning. The capabilities of a BAS-equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner, which could jeopardize the user's safety or the safety of others. 4 Brake System Warning Light The red Brake System Warning Light will turn on when the ignition is turned to the ON/RUN mode and may stay on for as long as four seconds. If the Brake System Warning Light remains on or comes on while driving, it indicates that the brake system is not functioning properly and that immediate service is required. If the Brake System Warning Light does not come on when the ignition is turned to the ON/RUN mode, have the light repaired as soon as possible. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 154 154 SAFETY Dynamic Steering Torque (DST) Dynamic Steering Torque (DST) is a feature of the ESC and Electric Power Steering (EPS) modules that provides torque at the steering wheel for certain driving conditions in which the ESC module is detecting vehicle instability. The torque that the steering wheel receives is only meant to help the driver realize optimal steering behavior in order to reach/maintain vehicle stability. The only notification the driver receives that the feature is active, is the torque applied to the steering wheel. NOTE:
The DST feature is only meant to help the driver realize the correct course of action through small torques on the steering wheel, which means the effectiveness of the DST feature is highly dependent on the drivers sensitivity and overall reaction to the applied torque. It is very important to realize that this feature will not steer the vehicle, meaning the driver is still responsible for steering the vehicle. Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD) The Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD) function manages the distribution of the braking torque between the front and rear axles by limiting braking pressure to the rear axle. This is done to prevent overslip of the rear wheels to avoid vehicle instability, and to prevent the rear axle from entering the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) before the front axle. Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM) Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM) anticipates the potential for wheel lift by monitoring the drivers steering wheel input and the speed of the vehicle. When ERM determines that the rate of change of the steering wheel angle and vehicles speed are sufficient to potentially cause wheel lift, it then applies the appropriate brake and may also reduce engine power to lessen the chance that wheel lift will occur. ERM can only reduce the chance of wheel lift occur-
ring during severe or evasive driving maneu-
vers; it cannot prevent wheel lift due to other factors, such as road conditions, leaving the roadway, striking objects or other vehicles. WARNING!
Many factors, such as vehicle loading, road conditions and driving conditions, influence the chance that wheel lift or rollover may occur. ERM cannot prevent all wheel lift or roll overs, especially those that involve leaving the roadway or striking objects or other vehicles. The capabilities of an ERM-equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner which could jeopardize the user's safety or the safety of others. Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Electronic Stability Control (ESC) enhances directional control and stability of the vehicle under various driving conditions. ESC corrects for oversteering or understeering of the vehicle by applying the brake of the appropriate wheel(s) to assist in counteracting the oversteer or understeer condition. Engine power may also be reduced to help the vehicle maintain the desired path. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 155 WARNING!
WARNING! (Continued) SAFETY 155 Vehicle modifications, or failure to properly maintain your vehicle, may change the handling characteristics of your vehicle, and may negatively affect the performance of the ESC system. Changes to the steering system, suspension, braking system, tire type and size or wheel size may adversely affect ESC performance. Improperly inflated and unevenly worn tires may also degrade ESC performance. Any vehicle modification or poor vehicle maintenance that reduces the effectiveness of the ESC system can increase the risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death. 4 ESC uses sensors in the vehicle to determine the vehicle path intended by the driver and compares it to the actual path of the vehicle. When the actual path does not match the intended path, ESC applies the brake of the appropriate wheel to assist in counteracting the oversteer or understeer condition. Oversteer when the vehicle is turning more than appropriate for the steering wheel posi-
tion. Understeer when the vehicle is turning less than appropriate for the steering wheel posi-
tion. The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light located in the instrument cluster will start to flash as soon as the ESC system becomes active. The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indi-
cator Light also flashes when the TCS is active. If the ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator 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. Electronic Stability Control (ESC) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. ESC cannot prevent accidents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning. ESC also cannot prevent accidents resulting from loss of vehicle control due to inappropriate driver input for the conditions. Only a safe, atten-
tive, and skillful driver can prevent acci-
dents. The capabilities of an ESC equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reck-
less or dangerous manner which could jeopardize the users safety or the safety of others.
(Continued) 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 156 156 SAFETY ESC Operating Modes NOTE:
Depending upon model and mode of operation, the ESC system may have multiple operating modes. ESC On This is the normal operating mode for the ESC. Whenever the vehicle is started, the ESC system will be in this mode. This mode should be used for most driving conditions. Alternate ESC modes should only be used for specific reasons as noted in the following paragraphs. Partial Off The Partial Off mode is intended for times when a more spirited driving experience is desired. This mode may modify TCS and ESC thresholds for activation, which allows for more wheel spin than normally allowed. This mode may be useful if the vehicle becomes stuck. To enter the Partial Off mode, momentarily push the ESC OFF button and the ESC OFF Indicator Light will illuminate. To turn the ESC on again, momentarily push the ESC OFF button and the ESC OFF Indicator Light will turn off. NOTE:
When driving with snow chains, or when starting off in deep snow, sand, or gravel, it may be desirable to allow more wheel spin. This can be accomplished by momentarily pushing the ESC OFF button to enter partial mode Partial Off mode. Once the situation requiring Partial Off mode is overcome, turn ESC back on by momentarily pushing the ESC OFF button. This may be done while the vehicle is in motion. WARNING!
When in Partial Off mode, the TCS func-
tionality of ESC, (except for the limited slip feature described in the TCS section), has been disabled and the ESC Off Indicator Light will be illuminated. When in Partial Off mode, the engine power reduction feature of TCS is disabled, and the enhanced vehicle stability offered by the ESC system is reduced. Trailer Sway control (TSC) is disabled when the ESC system is in the Partial Off mode. ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light And ESC OFF Indicator Light The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indi-
cator Light in the instrument cluster will come on when the ignition is turned to the ON mode. It should go out with the engine running. If the ESC Activa-
tion/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), see an authorized dealer as soon as possible to have the problem diagnosed and corrected. The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light (located in the instrument cluster) starts to flash as soon as the tires lose traction and the ESC system becomes active. The ESC Acti-
vation/Malfunction Indicator Light also flashes when TCS is active. If the ESC Activation/
Malfunction Indicator 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. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 157 NOTE:
The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light and the ESC OFF Indicator Light come on momentarily each time the ignition is turned ON. Each time the ignition is turned ON, the ESC system will be on even if it was turned off previously. The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking sounds when it is active. This is normal; the sounds will stop when ESC becomes inactive following the maneuver that caused the ESC activation. The ESC OFF Indicator Light indi-
cates the customer has elected to have the Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) in a reduced mode. Hill Start Assist (HSA) Hill Start Assist (HSA) is designed to mitigate roll back from a complete stop while on an incline. If the driver releases the brake while stopped on an incline, HSA will continue to hold the brake pressure for a short period. If the driver does not apply the throttle before this time expires, the system will release brake pressure and the vehicle will roll down the hill as normal. The following conditions must be met in order for HSA to activate:
The feature must be enabled. The vehicle must be stopped. The park brake must be off. The driver door must be closed. The vehicle must be on a sufficient grade. The gear selection must match vehicle uphill direction (i.e., vehicle facing uphill is in forward gear; vehicle backing uphill is in REVERSE (R) gear). SAFETY 157 HSA will work in REVERSE gear and all forward gears. The system will not activate if the trans-
mission is in PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N). For vehi-
cles equipped with a manual transmission, if the clutch is pressed, HSA will remain active. 4 WARNING!
There may be situations where the Hill Start Assist (HSA) will not activate and slight rolling may occur, such as on minor hills or with a loaded vehicle, or while pulling a trailer. HSA is not a substitute for active driving involvement. It is always the drivers responsibility to be attentive to distance to other vehicles, people, and objects, and most importantly brake operation to ensure safe operation of the vehicle under all road conditions. Your complete 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. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 158 158 SAFETY Towing With HSA HSA will also provide assistance to mitigate roll back while towing a trailer. WARNING!
If you use a trailer brake controller with your trailer, the trailer brakes may be activated and deactivated with the brake switch. If so, there may not be enough brake pres-
sure to hold both the vehicle and the trailer on a hill when the brake pedal is released. In order to avoid rolling down an incline while resuming acceleration, manually activate the trailer brake or apply more vehicle brake pressure prior to releasing the brake pedal. HSA is not a parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully when exiting your vehicle. Also, be certain to place the trans-
mission in PARK. Failure to follow these warnings can result in a collision or serious personal injury. Disabling And Enabling HSA This feature can be turned on or turned off. To change the current setting, proceed as follows:
If disabling HSA using Uconnect Settings, refer to Uconnect Settings in Multimedia for further information. Rain Brake Support (RBS) Rain Brake Support (RBS) may improve braking performance in wet conditions. It will periodi-
cally apply a small amount of brake pressure to remove any water buildup on the front brake rotors. It functions when the windshield wipers are in LO or HI speed. When RBS is active, there is no notification to the driver and no driver interaction is required. Ready Alert Braking (RAB) Ready Alert Braking (RAB) may reduce the time required to reach full braking during emergency braking situations. It anticipates when an emer-
gency braking situation may occur by moni-
toring how fast the throttle is released by the driver. The Electronic Brake Control (EBC) system will prepare the brake system for a panic stop. Traction Control System (TCS) The Traction Control System (TCS) monitors the amount of wheel spin of each of the driven wheels. If wheel spin is detected, the TCS may apply brake pressure to the spinning wheel(s) and/or reduce vehicle power to provide enhanced acceleration and stability. A feature of the TCS, Brake Limited Differential (BLD), functions similar to a limited slip differential and controls the wheel spin across a driven axle. If one wheel on a driven axle is spinning faster than the other, the system will apply the brake of the spinning wheel. This will allow more vehicle torque to be applied to the wheel that is not spinning. BLD may remain enabled even if TCS and the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) are in a reduced mode. Trailer Sway Control (TSC) Trailer Sway Control (TSC) uses sensors in the vehicle to recognize an excessively swaying trailer and will take the appropriate actions to attempt to stop the sway. TSC will become active automatically once an excessively swaying trailer is recognized. Note that TSC cannot stop all trailers from swaying. Always use caution when towing a trailer and follow the trailer tongue weight recommendations. Refer to Trailer Towing in Starting And Operating 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 159 for further information. When TSC is func-
tioning, the ESC Activation/Malfunction Indi-
cator Light will flash, the engine power may be reduced and you may feel the brakes being applied to individual wheels to attempt to stop the trailer from swaying. TSC is disabled when the ESC system is in the Partial Off mode. WARNING!
If TSC activates while driving, slow the vehicle down, stop at the nearest safe location, and adjust the trailer load to eliminate trailer sway. AUXILIARY DRIVING SYSTEMS Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) If Equipped The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system uses two radar-based sensors, located inside the rear bumper fascia, to detect highway licens-
able vehicles (automobiles, trucks, motorcy-
cles, etc.) that enter the blind spot zones from the rear/front/side of the vehicle. SAFETY 159 NOTE:
The BSM system DOES NOT alert the driver about rapidly approaching vehicles that are outside the detection zones. The BSM system detection zone DOES NOT change if your vehicle is towing a trailer. Therefore, visually verify the adjacent lane is clear for both your vehicle and trailer before making a lane change. If the trailer or other object (i.e., bicycle, sports equipment) extends beyond the side of your vehicle, this may result in false detections. The BSM warning light may even remain illuminated the entire time the vehicle is in a forward gear. The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system may experience drop outs (blinking on and off) of the side mirror Warning Indicator lamps when a motorcycle or any small object remains at the side of the vehicle for extended periods of time (more than a couple of seconds). 4 Rear Detection Zones When the vehicle is started, the BSM warning light will momentarily illuminate in both outside rear view mirrors to let the driver know that the system is operational. The BSM system sensors operate when the vehicle is in any forward gear or REVERSE (R) and enters stand-by mode when the vehicle is in PARK (P). The BSM detection zone covers approximately one lane width on both sides of the vehicle 12 ft
(3.7 m). The zone length starts at the outside rear view mirror and extends approximately 10 ft (3 m) beyond the rear bumper of the vehicle. The BSM system monitors the detec-
tion zones on both sides of the vehicle when the vehicle speed reaches approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h) or higher and will alert the driver of vehicles in these areas. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 160 160 SAFETY The area on the rear fascia where the radar sensors are located must remain free of snow, ice, and dirt/road contamination so that the BSM system can function properly. Do not block the area of the rear fascia where the radar sensors are located with foreign objects
(bumper stickers, bicycle racks, etc.). If the blockage message is still present after cycling the ignition and driving in traffic, check again for a blockage. The BSM system notifies the driver of objects in the detection zones by illuminating the BSM warning light located in the outside mirrors in addition to sounding an audible (chime) alert and reducing the radio volume. Refer to Modes Of Operation in this section for further information. Entering From The Side Vehicles that move into your adjacent lanes from either side of the vehicle. Side Monitoring Sensor Location If the system detects degraded performance due to contamination or foreign objects, a message will warn you of a blocked sensor and the warning indicators in side view mirrors will be on. The warning indicators will remain illumi-
nated until blockage clearing conditions are met. First clear the fascia area around the sensors of the blockage. After removing the blockage, cycle the ignition from on to off and then back on again to reset the system. Warning Light Location The BSM system monitors the detection zone from three different entry points (side, rear, front) while driving to see if an alert is neces-
sary. The BSM system will issue an alert during these types of zone entries. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 161 Entering From The Rear Vehicles that come up from behind your vehicle on either side and enter the rear detection zone with a relative speed of less than 30 mph
(48 km/h). Overtaking Traffic If you pass another vehicle slowly with a relative speed less than 15 mph (24 km/h) and the vehicle remains in the blind spot for approxi-
mately 1.5 seconds, the warning light will be illuminated. If the difference in speed between the two vehicles is greater than 15 mph
(24 km/h), the warning light will not illuminate. Rear Monitoring Overtaking/Approaching SAFETY 161 Overtaking/Passing 4 The BSM system is designed not to issue an alert on stationary objects such as guardrails, posts, walls, foliage, berms, snow banks, car washes etc. However, occasionally the system may alert on such objects. This is normal opera-
tion and your vehicle does not require service. Stationary Objects 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 162 162 SAFETY The BSM system will not alert you of objects that are traveling in the opposite direction of the vehicle in adjacent lanes. Rear Cross Path (RCP) The Rear Cross Path (RCP) feature is intended to aid the driver when backing out of parking spaces where their vision of oncoming vehicles may be blocked. Proceed slowly and cautiously out of the parking space until the rear end of the vehicle is exposed. The RCP system will then have a clear view of the cross traffic and if an oncoming vehicle is detected, alert the driver. Opposing Traffic WARNING!
The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only an aid to help detect objects in the blind spot zones. The BSM system is not designed to detect pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals. Even if your vehicle is equipped with the BSM system, always check your vehicles mirrors, glance over your shoulder, and use your turn signal before changing lanes. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death. RCP Detection Zones RCP monitors the rear detection zones on both sides of the vehicle, for objects that are moving toward the side of the vehicle with a minimum speed of approximately 3 mph (5 km/h), to objects moving a maximum of approximately 20 mph (32 km/h), such as in parking lot situa-
tions. NOTE:
In a parking lot situation, oncoming vehicles can be obscured by vehicles parked on either side. If the sensors are blocked by other structures or vehicles, the system will not be able to alert the driver. Additionally, if the host vehicle is obscured by a flat object on one side the system can false alert on vehicles approaching from the opposite direction. When RCP is on and the vehicle is in REVERSE (R), the driver is alerted using both the visual and audible alarms, including reducing the radio volume. WARNING!
Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP) is not a back up aid system. It is intended to be used to help a driver detect an oncoming vehicle in a parking lot situation. Drivers must be careful when backing up, even when using RCP. Always check carefully behind your vehicle, look behind you, and be sure to check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots before backing up. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 163 Modes Of Operation Three selectable modes of operation are avail-
able in the Uconnect System. Refer to Uconnect Settings in Multimedia for further information. Blind Spot Alert Lights Only Default Setting When operating in Blind Spot Alert mode, the BSM system will provide a visual alert in the appropriate side view mirror based on a detected object. However, when the system is operating in Rear Cross Path (RCP) mode, the system will respond with both visual and audible alerts when a detected object is present. Whenever an audible alert is requested, the radio is muted. Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime When operating in Blind Spot Alert Lights/
Chime mode, the BSM system will provide a visual alert in the appropriate side view mirror based on a detected object. If the turn signal is then activated, and it corresponds to an alert present on that side of the vehicle, an audible chime will also be sounded. Whenever a turn signal and detected object are present on the same side at the same time, both the visual and audible alerts will be issued. In addition to the audible alert the radio (if on) will also be muted. NOTE:
Whenever an audible alert is requested by the BSM system, the radio is also muted. When the system is in RCP, the system shall respond with both visual and audible alerts when a detected object is present. Whenever an audible alert is requested, the radio is also muted. Turn/hazard signal status is ignored;
the RCP state always requests the chime. Blind Spot Alert Off When the BSM system is turned off there will be no visual or audible alerts from either the BSM or RCP systems. NOTE:
The BSM system will store the current oper-
ating mode when the vehicle is shut off. Each time the vehicle is started the previously stored mode will be recalled and used. The BSM system can work in conjunction with the Keysense function of the vehicle (if equipped). Refer to KeySense Cluster Messages" in Getting To Know Your Instru-
ment Panel for further information. 1. 2. SAFETY 163 General Information The following regulatory statement applies to all Radio Frequency (RF) devices equipped in this vehicle:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interfer-
4 ence, and 2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Le prsent appareil est conforme aux CNR d`Innovation, Science and Economic Develop-
ment applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorise aux deux conditions suivantes:
l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouil-
lage, et l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radiolectrique subi, mme si le brouillage est susceptible d'en comprom-
ettre le fonctionnement. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 164 164 SAFETY La operacin de este equipo est sujeta a las siguientes dos condiciones:
1. es posible que este equipo o dispositivo no cause interferencia perjudicial y 2. este equipo o dispositivo debe aceptar cual-
quier interferencia, incluyendo la que pueda causar su operacin no deseada. NOTE:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compli-
ance could void the users authority to operate the equipment. Forward Collision Warning (FCW) With Mitigation If Equipped The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system with Mitigation provides the driver with audible warnings, visual warnings (within the instru-
ment cluster display), and may apply a brake jerk to warn the driver when it detects a poten-
tial frontal collision. The warnings and limited braking are intended to provide the driver with enough time to react, avoid or mitigate the potential collision. NOTE:
FCW monitors the information from the forward looking sensors as well as the Electronic Brake Controller (EBC), to calculate the probability of a forward collision. When the system determines that a forward collision is probable, the driver will be provided with audible and visual warn-
ings and may provide a brake jerk warning. If the driver does not take action based upon these progressive warnings, then the system will provide a limited level of active braking to help slow the vehicle and mitigate the potential forward collision. If the driver reacts to the warn-
ings by braking and the system determines that the driver intends to avoid the collision by braking but has not applied sufficient brake force, the system will compensate and provide additional brake force as required. If a FCW with Mitigation event begins at a speed below 26 mph (42 km/h), the system may provide the maximum braking possible to miti-
gate the potential forward collision. If the Forward Collision Warning with Mitigation event stops the vehicle completely, the system will hold the vehicle at standstill for two seconds and then release the brakes. FCW Message When the system determines a collision with the vehicle in front of you is no longer probable, the warning message will be deactivated. NOTE:
The minimum speed for FCW activation is 1 mph (2 km/h). The FCW alerts may be triggered on objects other than vehicles such as guard rails or sign posts based on the course prediction. This is expected and is a part of normal FCW activation and functionality. It is unsafe to test the FCW system. To prevent such misuse of the system, after four Active Braking events within a key cycle, the Active Braking portion of FCW will be deacti-
vated until the next key cycle. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 165 The FCW system is intended for on-road use only. If the vehicle is taken off-road, the FCW system should be deactivated to prevent unnecessary warnings to the surroundings. NOTE:
WARNING!
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not intended to avoid a collision on its own, nor can FCW detect every type of potential collision. 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. Turning FCW On Or Off The Forward Collision menu setting is located in the Uconnect settings. NOTE:
The default status of FCW is on, this allows the system to warn you of a possible collision with the vehicle in front of you. Changing the FCW status to off deactivates the system, so no warning or active braking will be available in case of a possible collision. The FCW system state is kept in memory from one key cycle to the next. If the system is turned off, it will remain off when the vehicle is restarted. FCW can work in conjunction with the KeySense function of the vehicle (if equipped). Refer to KeySense Cluster Messages" in Getting To Know Your Instru-
ment Panel for further information. FCW Braking Status And Sensitivity The FCW Sensitivity and Active Braking status are programmable through the Uconnect System. Refer to Uconnect Settings in Multimedia for further information. The default sensitivity of FCW is the Medium setting and the system status is Warning &
Braking. This allows the system to warn the driver of a possible collision with the vehicle in front using audible/visual warnings and it applies autonomous braking. Changing the FCW status to Far setting allows the system to warn the driver of a possible collision with the vehicle in front using audible/visual warning when the latter is at a farther distance SAFETY 165 than "Medium" setting. This provides the most reaction time to avoid a possible collision. Changing the FCW status to the Near setting, allows the system to warn the driver of a possible collision with the vehicle in front when the distance between the vehicle in the front is much closer. This setting provides less reaction time than the Far and Medium settings, which allows for a more dynamic driving experi-
ence. 4 NOTE:
Changing the FCW status to Only Warning prevents the system from providing limited active braking, or additional brake support if the driver is not braking adequately in the event of a potential frontal collision, but maintains the audible and visual warnings. Changing the FCW status to Off prevents the system from providing autonomous braking, or additional brake support if the driver is not braking adequately in the event of a potential frontal collision. The system will retain the last setting selected by the driver after ignition shut down. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 166 166 SAFETY FCW may not react to irrelevant objects such as overhead objects, ground reflections, objects not in the path of the vehicle, stationary objects that are far away, oncoming traffic, or leading vehicles with the same or higher rate of speed. FCW will be disabled like ACC, with the unavailable screens. FCW Limited Warning If the instrument cluster displays ACC/FCW Limited Functionality or ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front Windshield momen-
tarily, there may be a condition that limits FCW functionality. Although the vehicle is still driv-
able under normal conditions, the active braking may not be fully available. Once the condition that limited the system performance is no longer present, the system will return to its full performance state. If the problem persists, see an authorized dealer. Service FCW Warning If the system turns off, and the instrument cluster displays:

The TPMS Warning Light will illuminate in the instrument cluster and a chime will sound when tire pressure is low in one or more of the four active road tires. In addition, the instrument cluster will display a graphic showing the pres-
sure values of each tire with the low tire pres-
sure values in a different color, or the Uconnect radio will display a TPMS message, when this occurs you must increase the tire pressure to the recommended cold placard pressure in order for the TPMS Warning Light to turn off. The tire pressure will vary with temperature by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12F
(6.5C). This means that when the outside temperature decreases, the tire pressure will decrease. Tire pressure should always be set based on cold inflation tire pressure. This is defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after a three hour period. The cold tire inflation pressure must not exceed the maximum inflation pres-
sure molded into the tire sidewall. Refer to Tires in Servicing and Maintenance for infor-
mation on how to properly inflate the vehicles tires. The tire pressure will also increase as the vehicle is driven. This is normal and there should be no adjustment for this increased pressure. The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire pres-
sure if the tire pressure falls below the low-pres-
sure warning limit for any reason, including low temperature effects and natural pressure loss through the tire. The TPMS will continue to warn the driver of low tire pressure as long as the condition exists, and will not turn off until the tire pressure is at or above the recommended cold placard pres-
sure. Once the low tire pressure warning (TPMS Warning Light) illuminates, you must increase the tire pressure to the recommended cold placard pressure in order for the TPMS Warning Light to turn off. The system will automatically update and the TPMS Warning Light will turn off once the system receives the updated tire pressures. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this information. SAFETY 167 For example, your vehicle may have a recom-
mended cold (parked for more than three hours) placard pressure of 33 psi (227 kPa). If the ambient temperature is 68F (20C) and the measured tire pressure is 28 psi (193 kPa), a temperature drop to 20F (-7C) will decrease the tire pressure to approximately 24 psi (165 kPa). This tire pressure is low enough to turn ON the TPMS Warning Light. Driving the vehicle may cause the tire pressure to rise to approximately 28 psi (193 kPa), but the TPMS Warning Light will still be on. In this situation, the TPMS Warning Light will turn off only after the tires are inflated to the vehicles recommended cold placard pressure value. NOTE:
When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may need to be increased up to an additional 4 psi
(28 kPa) above the recommended cold placard pressure in order to turn the TPMS Warning Light off. 4 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 168 168 SAFETY CAUTION!
NOTE:
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. The TPM sensor is not designed for use on aftermarket wheels and may contribute to a poor overall system performance or sensor damage. Customers are encouraged to use OEM wheels to assure proper TPM feature operation. Using aftermarket tire sealants may cause the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) sensor to become inoperable. After using an aftermarket tire sealant it is recommended that you take your vehicle to an authorized dealer to have your sensor function checked. After inspecting or adjusting the tire pres-
sure always reinstall the valve stem cap. This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage the TPMS sensor. The TPMS is not intended to replace normal tire care and maintenance, or to provide warning of a tire failure or condition. The TPMS should not be used as a tire pres-
sure gauge while adjusting your tire pressure. Driving on a significantly underinflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Underinflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicles handling and stopping ability. The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the drivers responsi-
bility to maintain correct tire pressure using an accurate tire pressure gauge, even if underinflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS Warning Light. Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire pressure, and the TPMS will monitor the actual tire pressure in the tire. Light Premium System The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) uses wireless technology with wheel rim mounted electronic sensors to monitor tire pressure levels. Sensors, mounted to each wheel as part of the valve stem, transmit tire pressure readings to the receiver module. NOTE:
It is particularly important for you to check the tire pressure in all of the tires on your vehicle monthly and to maintain the proper pressure. The TPMS consists of the following compo-
nents:
Receiver module Four Tire Pressure Monitoring sensors Various Tire Pressure Monitoring System messages, which display in the instrument cluster Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 169 Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warnings The TPMS Warning Light will illumi-
nate in the instrument cluster and a chime will sound when tire pressure is low in one or more of the four active road tires. In addition, the instrument cluster will display an "Inflate to XX" message and a graphic showing the pressure values of each tire with the low tire pressure values in a different color. Tire Pressure Monitoring System Should this occur, you should stop as soon as possible and inflate the tires with low pressure
(those in a different color in the instrument cluster graphic) to the vehicles recommended cold placard pressure value as shown in the
"Inflate to XX" message. Once the system receives the updated tire pressures, the system will automatically update, the pressure values in the graphic display in the instrument cluster will return to their original color, and the TPMS Warning Light will turn off. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this information. Service TPMS Warning When a system fault is detected, the Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS) Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid. The system fault will also sound a chime. In addition, the instrument cluster will display a "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM"
message for a minimum of five seconds and then display dashes (--) in place of the pressure value to indicate which sensor is not being received. If the ignition is cycled, this sequence will repeat, providing the system fault still exists. If the system fault no longer exists, the TPMS Warning Light will no longer flash, and the SERVICE TPM SYSTEM message will no longer display, and a pressure value will display in place of the dashes. A system fault can occur due to any of the following:
SAFETY 169 Jamming due to electronic devices or driving next to facilities emitting the same radio frequencies as the TPMS sensors Installing some form of aftermarket window tinting that affects radio wave signals Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings Using tire chains on the vehicle Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS sensors Vehicles With Compact Spare If Equipped 1. The compact spare tire does not have a tire pressure monitoring sensor. Therefore, the TPMS will not monitor the pressure in the compact spare tire. 2. If you install the compact spare tire in place of a road tire that has a pressure below the low-pressure warning limit, upon the next ignition cycle, the TPMS Warning Light will remain on and a chime will sound. In addi-
tion, the graphic in the instrument cluster will still display a different color pressure value. 4 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 170 170 SAFETY 3. After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h), the TPMS Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid. In addition, the instrument cluster will display a SERVICE TPM SYSTEM message for five seconds and then display dashes (--) in place of the pressure value. 4. For each subsequent ignition cycle, a chime will sound, the TPMS Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid, and the instrument cluster will display a SERVICE TPM SYSTEM message for five seconds and then display dashes (- -) in place of the pressure value. 5. Once you repair or replace the original road tire and reinstall it on the vehicle in place of the compact spare, the TPMS will update automatically. In addition, the TPMS Warning Light will turn off and the graphic in the instrument cluster will display a new pressure value instead of dashes (--), as long as no tire pressure is below the low-pressure warning limit in any of the four active road tires. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this information. TPMS Deactivation If Equipped The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) can be deactivated if replacing all four wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with wheel and tire assemblies that do not have TPMS Sensors, such as when installing winter wheel and tire assemblies on your vehicle. To deactivate the TPMS, first, replace all four wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires not equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring
(TPM) sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS will chime, the TPMS Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on. The instrument cluster will display the SERVICE TPM SYSTEM message and then display dashes (--) in place of the pressure values. Beginning with the next ignition cycle, the TPMS will no longer chime or display the SERVICE TPM SYSTEM message in the instrument cluster but dashes (--) will remain in place of the pressure values. To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires equipped with TPM sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km/h). The TPMS will chime, the TPMS Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then turn off. The instrument cluster will display the SERVICE TPM SYSTEM message and then display pressure values in place of the dashes. On the next ignition cycle the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message will no longer be displayed as long as no system fault exists.

1. Children 12 years old and under should always ride buckled up in the rear seat of a vehicle with a rear seat. 2. A child who is not big enough to wear the vehicle seat belt properly (Refer to Child Restraints in this section for further infor-
mation) must be secured in the appropriate child restraint or belt-positioning booster seat in a rear seating position. 4 3. If a child from 2 to 12 years old (not in a rear-facing child restraint) must ride in the front passenger seat, move the seat as far back as possible and use the proper child restraint (Refer to Child Restraints in this section for further information). 4. Never allow children to slide the shoulder belt behind them or under their arm. 5. You should read the instructions provided with your child restraint to make sure that you are using it properly. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 172 172 SAFETY 6. All occupants should always wear their lap and shoulder belts properly. 7. The driver and front passenger seats should be moved back as far as practical to allow the front air bags room to inflate. 8. Do not lean against the door or window. If your vehicle has side air bags, and deploy-
ment occurs, the side air bags will inflate forcefully into the space between occupants and the door and occupants could be injured. 9. If the air bag system in this vehicle needs to be modified to accommodate a disabled person, refer to the Customer Assistance section for customer service contact infor-
mation. WARNING!
Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an air bag. A deploying passenger front air bag can cause death or serious injury to a child 12 years or younger, including a child in a rear-facing child restraint.
(Continued) WARNING! (Continued) Never install a rear-facing child restraint in the front seat of a vehicle. Only use a rear-facing child restraint in the rear seat. If the vehicle does not have a rear seat, do not transport a rear-facing child restraint in that vehicle. Seat Belt Systems Buckle up even though you are an excellent driver, even on short trips. Someone on the road may be a poor driver and could cause a collision that includes you. This can happen far away from home or on your own street. Research has shown that seat belts save lives, and they can reduce the seriousness of injuries in a collision. Some of the worst injuries happen when people are thrown from the vehicle. Seat belts reduce the possibility of ejection and the risk of injury caused by striking the inside of the vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle should be belted at all times. Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder System
(BeltAlert) Driver and Passenger BeltAlert (if equipped) BeltAlert is a feature intended to remind the driver and outboard front seat passenger (if equipped with outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert) to buckle their seat belts. The BeltAlert feature is active whenever the ignition switch is in the START or ON/RUN position. Initial Indication If the driver is unbuckled when the ignition switch is first in the START or ON/RUN position, a chime will signal for a few seconds. If the driver or outboard front seat passenger (if equipped with outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert) is unbuckled when the ignition switch is first in the START or ON/RUN position the Seat Belt Reminder Light will turn on and remain on until both outboard front seat belts are buckled. The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when an outboard front passenger seat is unoccupied. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 173 BeltAlert Warning Sequence The BeltAlert warning sequence is activated when the vehicle is moving above a specified vehicle speed range and the driver or outboard front seat passenger is unbuckled (if equipped with outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert)
(the outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when the outboard front passenger seat is unoccupied). The BeltAlert warning sequence starts by blinking the Seat Belt Reminder Light and sounding an intermittent chime. Once the BeltAlert warning sequence has completed, the Seat Belt Reminder Light will remain on until the seat belts are buckled. The BeltAlert warning sequence may repeat based on vehicle speed until the driver and occupied outboard front seat passenger seat belts are buckled. The driver should instruct all occupants to buckle their seat belts. Change of Status If the driver or outboard front seat passenger (if equipped with outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert) unbuckles their seat belt while the vehicle is traveling, the BeltAlert warning sequence will begin until the seat belts are buckled again. The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when the outboard front passenger seat is unoccupied. BeltAlert may be triggered when an animal or other items are placed on the outboard front passenger seat or when the seat is folded flat (if equipped). It is recom-
mended that pets be restrained in the rear seat
(if equipped) in pet harnesses or pet carriers that are secured by seat belts, and cargo is properly stowed. BeltAlert can be activated or deactivated by an authorized dealer. FCA US LLC does not recom-
mend deactivating BeltAlert. NOTE:
If BeltAlert has been deactivated and the driver or outboard front seat passenger (if equipped with outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert) is unbuckled the Seat Belt Reminder Light will turn on and remain on until the driver and outboard front seat passenger seat belts are buckled. Lap/Shoulder Belts All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped with lap/shoulder belts. The seat belt webbing retractor will lock only during very sudden stops or collisions. This feature allows the shoulder part of the seat belt SAFETY 173 to move freely with you under normal condi-
tions. However, in a collision the seat belt will lock and reduce your risk of striking the inside of the vehicle or being thrown out of the vehicle. 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 wont deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt even though you have air bags. 4 In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not properly buckled up. You can strike the inte-
rior 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. It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed. Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts.
(Continued) 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 174 174 SAFETY Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly. Occupants, including the driver, should always wear their seat belts whether or not an air bag is also provided at their seating position to minimize the risk of severe injury or death in the event of a crash. Wearing your seat belt incorrectly could make your injuries in a collision much worse. You might suffer internal injuries, or you could even slide out of the seat belt. Follow these instructions to wear your seat belt safely and to keep your passengers safe, too. Two people should never be belted into a single seat belt. People belted together can crash into one another in a collision, hurting one another badly. Never use a lap/
shoulder belt or a lap belt for more than one person, no matter what their size. WARNING! (Continued) WARNING!
WARNING! (Continued) A lap belt worn too high can increase the A seat belt that is worn under your arm is risk of injury in a collision. The seat belt forces wont be at the strong hip and pelvic bones, but across your abdomen. Always wear the lap part of your seat belt as low as possible and keep it snug. A twisted seat belt may not protect you properly. In a collision, it could even cut into you. Be sure the seat belt is flat against your body, without twists. If you cant straighten a seat belt in your vehicle, take it to an authorized dealer immediately and have it fixed. A seat belt that is buckled into the wrong buckle will not protect you properly. The lap portion could ride too high on your body, possibly causing internal injuries. Always buckle your seat belt into the buckle nearest you. A seat belt that is too loose will not protect you properly. In a sudden stop, you could move too far forward, increasing the possi-
bility of injury. Wear your seat belt snugly.
(Continued) dangerous. Your body could strike the inside surfaces of the vehicle in a collision, increasing head and neck injury. A seat belt worn under the arm can cause internal inju-
ries. Ribs arent as strong as shoulder bones. Wear the seat belt over your shoulder so that your strongest bones will take the force in a collision. 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 frayed or torn seat belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection. Inspect the seat belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immedi-
ately. Do not disassemble or modify the seat belt system. Seat belt assemblies must be replaced after a collision. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 175 SAFETY 175 Lap/Shoulder Belt Operating Instructions 3. When the seat belt is long enough to fit, insert the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a click. 1. Enter the vehicle and close the door. Sit back and adjust the seat. 2. The seat belt latch plate is above the back of the front seat, and next to your arm in the rear seat (for vehicles equipped with a rear seat). Grasp the latch plate and pull out the seat belt. Slide the latch plate up the webbing as far as necessary to allow the seat belt to go around your lap. Inserting Latch Plate Into Buckle 4. Position the lap belt so that it is snug and lies low across your hips, below your abdomen. To remove slack in the lap belt portion, pull up 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 seat belt reduces the risk of sliding under the seat belt in a collision. Positioning The Lap Belt 4 5. Position the shoulder belt across the shoulder and chest with minimal, if any slack so that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck. The retractor will with-
draw any slack in the shoulder belt. 6. To release the seat belt, push the red button on the buckle. The seat belt will automati-
cally retract to its stowed position. If neces-
sary, slide the latch plate down the webbing to allow the seat belt to retract fully. Pulling Out The Latch Plate 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 176 176 SAFETY Lap/Shoulder Belt Untwisting Procedure Use the following procedure to untwist a twisted lap/shoulder belt. 1. Position the latch plate as close as possible to the anchor point. 2. At about 6 to 12 inches (15 to 30 cm) above the latch plate, grasp and twist the seat belt webbing 180 degrees to create a fold that begins immediately above the latch plate. 3. Slide the latch plate upward over the folded webbing. The folded webbing must enter the slot at the top of the latch plate. 4. Continue to slide the latch plate up until it clears the folded webbing and the seat belt is no longer twisted. Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt Anchorage In the front and second row outboard seats the shoulder belt can be adjusted upward or down-
ward to position the seat belt away from your neck. Push or squeeze the anchorage button to release the anchorage, and move it up or down to the position that serves you best. verify the shoulder belt anchorage is latched, pull downward on the shoulder belt anchorage until it is locked into position. WARNING!
Wearing your seat belt incorrectly could make your injuries in a collision much worse. You might suffer internal injuries, or you could even slide out of the seat belt. Follow these instructions to wear your seat belt safely and to keep your passengers safe, too. Position the shoulder belt across the shoulder and chest with minimal, if any slack so that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck. The retractor will with-
draw any slack in the shoulder belt. Misadjustment of the seat belt could reduce the effectiveness of the safety belt in a crash. Always make all seat belt height adjust-
ments when the vehicle is stationary. Adjustable Anchorage As a guide, if you are shorter than average, you will prefer the shoulder belt anchorage in a lower posi-
tion, and if you are taller than average, you will prefer the shoulder belt anchorage in a higher posi-
tion. After you release the anchorage button, try to move it up or down to make sure that it is locked in position. NOTE:
The adjustable upper shoulder belt anchorage is equipped with an Easy Up feature. This feature allows the shoulder belt anchorage to be adjusted in the upward position without pushing or squeezing the release button.

Seat Belts And Pregnant Women SAFETY 179 When reattaching the mini-latch plate and mini-buckle, ensure the seat belt webbing is not twisted. If the webbing is twisted, follow the preceding procedure to detach the mini-latch plate and mini-buckle, untwist the webbing, and reattach the mini-latch plate and mini-buckle. Seat Belt Extender If a seat belt is not long enough to fit properly, even when the webbing is fully extended and the adjustable upper shoulder belt anchorage
(if equipped) is in its lowest position, an autho-
rized dealer can provide you with a Seat Belt Extender. The Seat Belt Extender should be used only if the existing seat belt is not long enough. When the Seat Belt Extender is not required for a different occupant, it must be removed. ONLY use a Seat Belt Extender if it is physi-
cally required in order to properly fit the original seat belt system. DO NOT USE the Seat Belt Extender if, when worn, the distance between the front edge of the Seat Belt Extender buckle and the center of the occupants body is LESS than 6 inches. Using a Seat Belt Extender when not needed can increase the risk of serious injury or death in a collision. Only use the Seat Belt Extender when the lap belt is not long enough and only use in the recom-
mended seating positions. Remove and store the Seat Belt Extender when not needed. 4 Seat Belts And Pregnant Women Seat belts must be worn by all occupants including pregnant women: the risk of injury in the event of an accident is reduced for the mother and the unborn child if they are wearing a seat belt. Position the lap belt snug and low below the abdomen and across the strong bones of the hips. Place the shoulder belt across the chest and away from the neck. Never place the shoulder belt behind the back or under the arm. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 180 180 SAFETY Seat Belt Pretensioner The front outboard seat belt system is equipped with pretensioning devices that are designed to remove slack from the seat belt in the event of a collision. These devices may improve the performance of the seat belt by removing slack from the seat belt early in a collision. Preten-
sioners work for all size occupants, including those in child restraints. NOTE:
These devices are not a substitute for proper seat belt placement by the occupant. The seat belt still must be worn snugly and positioned properly. The pretensioners are triggered by the Occu-
pant Restraint Controller (ORC). Like the air bags, the pretensioners are single use items. A deployed pretensioner or a deployed air bag must be replaced immediately. Energy Management Feature The front outboard seat belt system is equipped with an Energy Management feature that may help further reduce the risk of injury in the event of a collision. The seat belt system has a retractor assembly that is designed to release webbing in a controlled manner. Switchable Automatic Locking Retractors
(ALR) If applicable, refer to the Hybrid Supplement for additional information. The seat belts in the passenger seating posi-
tions are equipped with a Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) which is used to secure a child restraint system. For additional informa-
tion, refer to Installing Child Restraints Using The Vehicle Seat Belt under the Child Restraints section of this manual. The figure below illustrates the locking feature for each seating position. 7 Passenger Stow n Go Seating Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) Locations ALR Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor 7 Passenger Bench Seat Automatic Locking Retractor 8 Passenger Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
(ALR) Locations Locations ALR Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor ALR Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 181 If the passenger seating position is equipped with an ALR and is being used for normal usage, only pull the seat belt webbing out far enough to comfortably wrap around the occupants mid-section so as to not activate the ALR. If the ALR is activated, you will hear a clicking sound as the seat belt retracts. Allow the webbing to retract completely in this case and then care-
fully pull out only the amount of webbing neces-
sary to comfortably wrap around the occupants mid-section. Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a "click."
In Automatic Locking Mode, the shoulder belt is automatically pre-locked. The seat belt will still retract to remove any slack in the shoulder belt. Use the Automatic Locking Mode anytime a child restraint is installed in a seating position that has a seat belt with this feature. Children 12 years old and under should always be prop-
erly restrained in the rear seat of a vehicle with a rear seat. WARNING!
Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an air bag. A deploying passenger front air bag can cause death or serious injury to a child 12 years or younger, including a child in a rear-facing child restraint. Never install a rear-facing child restraint in the front seat of a vehicle. Only use a rear-facing child restraint in the rear seat. If the vehicle does not have a rear seat, do not transport a rear-facing child restraint in that vehicle. How To Engage The Automatic Locking Mode belt. 2. Grasp the shoulder portion and pull down-
ward until the entire seat belt is extracted. 3. Allow the seat belt to retract. As the seat belt retracts, you will hear a clicking sound. This indicates the seat belt is now in the Automatic Locking Mode. SAFETY 181 How To Disengage The Automatic Locking Mode Unbuckle the combination lap/shoulder belt and allow it to retract completely to disengage the Automatic Locking Mode and activate the vehicle sensitive (emergency) locking mode. WARNING!
The seat belt assembly must be replaced if the switchable Automatic Locking Retractor
(ALR) feature or any other seat belt function is not working properly when checked according to the procedures in the Service Manual. 4 Failure to replace the seat belt assembly could increase the risk of injury in colli-
sions. restrain occupants who are wearing the seat belt or children who are using booster seats. The locked mode is only used to install rear-facing or forward-facing child restraints that have a harness for restraining the child. 1. Buckle the combination lap and shoulder Do not use the Automatic Locking Mode to 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 182 182 SAFETY Seat Belt Park Stitch If Equipped The rear outboard seat belts may be equipped with a park stitch to raise the latch plate for easier access to occupants. If the park stitch interferes with the tight installation of a child restraint, slide the latch plate over the stitching to shorten the lap portion of the belt and install the car seat normally. When the car seat is removed from the vehicle, slide the latch plate above the park stitch to enable occupants to latch the seatbelt securely. Third Row Stow Clip - If Equipped Your vehicle may be equipped with a stow clip on the lower trim behind the third row. This clip is used to hold the seat belt out of the path of the power folding third row seat. Only place the seat belt webbing in this clip while folding and opening the seat. Do not leave the webbing behind the clip when using the belt to restrain an occupant. Seat Belt Park Stitch Location Third Row Stow Clip WARNING!
Do not place the seat belt webbing behind the third row stow clip when using the seat belt to restrain an occupant. The seat belt will not be positioned properly on the occupant and they could be more seriously injured in an accident as a result. Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS) Some of the safety features described in this section may be standard equipment on some models, or may be optional equipment on others. If you are not sure, ask an authorized dealer. The air bag system must be ready to protect you in a collision. The Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC) monitors the internal circuits and inter-
connecting wiring associated with the electrical Air Bag System Components. Your vehicle may be equipped with the following Air Bag System Components:
Air Bag System Components Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) Air Bag Warning Light Steering Wheel and Column Instrument Panel Knee Impact Bolsters Driver and Front Passenger Air Bags Seat Belt Buckle Switch Supplemental Side Air Bags 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 183 Supplemental Knee Air Bags Front and Side Impact Sensors Seat Belt Pretensioners Seat Track Position Sensors Occupant Classification System Air Bag Warning Light The Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC) monitors the readiness of the electronic parts of the air bag system whenever the ignition switch is in the START or ON/RUN position. If the ignition switch is in the OFF position or in the ACC position, the air bag system is not on and the air bags will not inflate. The ORC contains a backup power supply system that may deploy the air bag system even if the battery loses power or it becomes discon-
nected prior to deployment. The ORC turns on the Air Bag Warning Light in the instrument panel for approximately four to eight seconds for a self-check when the ignition switch is first in the ON/RUN position. After the self-check, the Air Bag Warning Light will turn off. If the ORC detects a malfunction in any part of the system, it turns on the Air Bag Warning Light, either momentarily or continuously. A single chime will sound to alert you if the light comes on again after initial startup. The ORC also includes diagnostics that will illu-
minate the instrument panel Air Bag Warning Light if a malfunction is detected that could affect the air bag system. The diagnostics also record the nature of the malfunction. While the air bag system is designed to be maintenance free, if any of the following occurs, have an authorized dealer service the air bag system immediately. The Air Bag Warning Light does not come on during the four to eight seconds when the ignition switch is first in the ON/RUN position. the four to eight-second interval. The Air Bag Warning Light comes on intermit-
tently or remains on while driving. NOTE:
If the speedometer, tachometer, or any engine related gauges are not working, the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) may also be disabled. In SAFETY 183 this condition the air bags may not be ready to inflate for your protection. Have an authorized dealer service the air bag system immediately. WARNING!
Ignoring the Air Bag Warning Light in your instrument panel could mean you wont have the air bag system to protect you in a collision. If the light does not come on as a bulb check when the ignition is first turned on, stays on after you start the vehicle, or if it comes on as you drive, have an authorized dealer service the air bag system immediately. 4 If a fault with the Air Bag Warning Light is detected, which could affect the Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS), the Redundant Air Bag Warning Light will illuminate on the instrument panel. The Redundant Air Bag Warning Light will stay on until the fault is cleared. In addition, a single chime will sound to alert you that the Redun-
dant Air Bag Warning Light has come on and a The Air Bag Warning Light remains on after Redundant Air Bag Warning Light 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 184 184 SAFETY fault has been detected. If the Redundant Air Bag Warning Light comes on intermittently or remains on while driving have an authorized dealer service the vehicle immediately. For additional information regarding the Redun-
dant Air Bag Warning Light refer to Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel section of this manual. Front Air Bags This vehicle has front air bags and lap/shoulder belts for both the driver and front passenger. The front air bags are a supplement to the seat belt restraint systems. The driver front air bag is mounted in the center of the steering wheel. The passenger front air bag is mounted in the instrument panel, above the glove compart-
ment. The words SRS AIRBAG or AIRBAG are embossed on the air bag covers. WARNING! (Continued) Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an air bag. A deploying passenger front air bag can cause death or serious injury to a child 12 years or younger, including a child in a rear-facing child restraint. Never install a rear-facing child restraint in the front seat of a vehicle. Only use a rear-facing child restraint in the rear seat. If the vehicle does not have a rear seat, do not transport a rear-facing child restraint in that vehicle. Driver And Passenger Front Air Bag Features The Advanced Front Air Bag system has multistage driver and front passenger air bags. This system provides output appropriate to the severity and type of collision as determined by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC), which may receive information from the front impact sensors (if equipped) or other system components. The first stage inflator is triggered immediately during an impact that requires air bag deploy-
ment. A low energy output is used in less severe Front Air Bag/Knee Bolster Locations 1 Driver And Passenger Front Air Bags 2 Passenger Knee Impact Bolster/Supplemen-
tal Passenger Knee Air Bag 3 Driver Knee Impact Bolster/Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag WARNING!
Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during 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.
(Continued) 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 185 collisions. A higher energy output is used for more severe collisions. This vehicle may be equipped with a driver and/
or front passenger seat belt buckle switch that detects whether the driver or front passenger seat belt is buckled. The seat belt buckle switch may adjust the inflation rate of the Advanced Front Air Bags. This vehicle may be equipped with driver and/or front passenger seat track position sensors that may adjust the inflation rate of the Advanced Front Air Bags based upon seat position. This vehicle is equipped with a right front passenger Occupant Classification System
(OCS) that is designed to provide Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag output appropriate to the occupants seated weight input, as deter-
mined by the OCS. WARNING!
No objects should be placed over or near the air bag on the instrument panel or steering wheel because any such objects could cause harm if the vehicle is in a colli-
sion severe enough to cause the air bag to inflate.
(Continued) WARNING! (Continued) Do not put anything on or around the air bag covers or attempt to open them manu-
ally. You may damage the air bags and you could be injured because the air bags may no longer be functional. The protective covers for the air bag cushions are designed to open only when the air bags are inflating. 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, air bags wont deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you have air bags. Front Air Bag Operation Front Air Bags are designed to provide addi-
tional protection by supplementing the seat belts. Front air bags are not expected to reduce the risk of injury in rear, side, or rollover colli-
sions. The front air bags will not deploy in all frontal collisions, including some that may produce substantial vehicle damage for example, some pole collisions, truck under-
rides, and angle offset collisions. SAFETY 185 On the other hand, depending on the type and location of impact, front air bags may deploy in crashes with little vehicle front-end damage but that produce a severe initial deceleration. Because air bag sensors measure vehicle deceleration over time, vehicle speed and damage by themselves are not good indicators of whether or not an air bag should have deployed. Seat belts are necessary for your protection in all collisions, and also are needed to help keep you in position, away from an inflating air bag. When the ORC detects a collision requiring the front air bags, it signals the inflator units. A large quantity of non-toxic gas is generated to inflate the front air bags. The steering wheel hub trim cover and the upper passenger side of the instrument panel separate and fold out of the way as the air bags inflate to their full size. The front air bags fully inflate in less time than it takes to blink your eyes. The front air bags then quickly deflate while helping to restrain the driver and front passenger. 4 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 186 186 SAFETY Occupant Classification System (OCS) Front Passenger Seat The Occupant Classification System (OCS) is part of a Federally regulated safety system for this vehicle. It is designed to provide Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag output appropriate to the occupants seated weight, as determined by the OCS. The Occupant Classification System (OCS) consists of the following:
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) Occupant Classification Module (OCM) and Sensor located in the front passenger seat OCM communicates this information to the ORC. The ORC may reduce the inflation rate of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag deploy-
ment based on occupant classification. In order for the OCS to operate as designed, it is important for the front passenger to be seated properly and properly wearing the seat belt. The OCS will NOT prevent deployment of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. The OCS may reduce the inflation rate of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag if the OCS estimates that:
The front passenger seat is unoccupied or has very light objects on it; or Air Bag Warning Light The front passenger seat is occupied by a Occupant Classification Module (OCM) and Sensor The Occupant Classification Module (OCM) is located underneath the front passenger seat. The Sensor is located beneath the passenger seat cushion foam. Any weight on the seat will be sensed by the Sensor. The OCM uses input from the Sensor to determine the front passengers most probable classification. The small passenger, including a child; or Unoccupied seat The front passenger seat is occupied by a rear-facing child restraint; or The front passenger is not properly seated or his or her weight is taken off of the seat for a period of time. Front Passenger Seat Occupant Status Rear-facing child restraint Child, including a child in a forward-facing child restraint or booster seat*
Properly seated adult Full-power Front Passenger Air Bag Output Reduced-power deployment Reduced-power deployment OR Full-power deployment deployment OR reduced-power deployment Reduced-power deployment
* It is possible for a child to be classified as an adult, allowing a full-power Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag deployment. Never allow children to ride in the front passenger seat and never install a child restraint system, including a rear-facing child restraint, in the front passenger seat. Never install a rear-facing child restraint in comfortably on or near the floor 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 187 WARNING!
Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an air bag. A deploying passenger front air bag can cause death or serious injury to a child 12 years or younger, including a child in a rear-facing child restraint. the front seat of a vehicle. Only use a rear-facing child restraint in the rear seat. If the vehicle does not have a rear seat, do not transport a rear-facing child restraint in that vehicle. Children 12 years or younger should always ride buckled up in the rear seat of a vehicle with a rear seat. The OCS determines the front passengers most probable classification. The OCS estimates the seated weight on the front passenger seat and where that weight is located. The OCS commu-
nicates the classification status to the ORC. The ORC uses the classification to determine whether the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag inflation rate should be adjusted. In order for the OCS to operate as designed, it is important for the front passenger to be seated properly and properly wearing the seat belt. Properly seated passengers are:
Sitting upright Facing forward Sitting in the center of the seat with their feet Sitting with their back against the seatback and the seatback in an upright position Seated Properly SAFETY 187 Lighter Weight Passengers (Including Small Adults) When a lighter weight passenger, including a small adult, occupies the front passenger seat, the OCS may reduce the inflation rate of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. This does not mean that the OCS is working improperly. Do not decrease OR increase the front passengers seated weight on the front passenger seat The front passengers seated weight must be prop-
erly positioned on the front passenger seat. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death. The OCS determines the most probable classification of the occupant that it detects. The OCS will detect the front passengers decreased or increased seated weight, which may result in an adjusted inflation rate of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag in a collision. This does not mean that the OCS is working improperly. Decreasing the front passengers seated weight on the front passenger seat may result in a reduced-power deployment of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. Increasing the front passengers seated weight on the front passenger seat may result in a full-power deploy-
ment of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. 4 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 188 188 SAFETY Examples of improper front passenger seating include:
The front passengers weight is transferred to another part of the vehicle (like the door, arm rest or instrument panel). The front passenger leans forward, sideways, or turns to face the rear of the vehicle. The front passengers seatback is not in the full upright position. The front passenger carries or holds an object while seated (e.g., backpack, box, etc.). Objects are lodged under the front passenger seat. Objects are lodged between the front passenger seat and center console. Accessories that may change the seated weight on the front passenger seat are attached to the front passenger seat. Anything that may decrease or increase the front passengers seated weight. The OCS determines the front passengers most probable classification. If an occupant in the front passenger seat is seated improperly, the occupant may provide an output signal to the OCS that is different from the occupants prop-
erly seated weight input, for example:
Not Seated Properly Not Seated Properly Not Seated Properly Not Seated Properly 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 189 WARNING!
WARNING! (Continued) If a child restraint system, child, small teen-
ager or adult in the front passenger seat is seated improperly, the occupant may provide an output signal to the OCS that is different from the occupants properly seated weight input. This may result in serious injury or death in a collision. Always wear your seat belt and sit properly, with the seatback in an upright position, your back against the seatback, sitting upright, facing forward, in the center of the seat, with your feet comfortably on or near the floor. Do not carry or hold any objects (e.g., back-
packs, boxes, etc.) while seated in the front passenger seat. Holding an object may provide an output signal to the OCS that is different than the occupants properly seated weight input, which may result in serious injury or death in a collision.
(Continued) Placing an object on the floor under the front passenger seat may prevent the OCS from working properly, which may result in serious injury or death in a collision. Do not place any objects on the floor under the front passenger seat. The Air Bag Warning Light in the instrument panel will turn on whenever the OCS is unable to classify the front passenger seat status. A malfunction in the OCS may affect the operation of the air bag system. If the Air Bag Warning Light does not come on, or stays on after you start the vehicle, or it comes on as you drive, take the vehicle to an authorized dealer for service immediately. The passenger seat assembly contains critical OCS components that may affect the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag inflation. In order for the OCS to properly classify the seated weight of a front seat passenger, the OCS components must function as designed. Do not make any modifications to the front passenger seat components, assembly, or to the seat cover. If the seat, trim cover, or cushion needs service SAFETY 189 for any reason, take the vehicle to an authorized dealer. Only FCA US LLC approved seat accesso-
ries may be used. The following requirements must be strictly followed:
Do not modify the front passenger seat assembly or components in any way. Do not use prior or future model year seat covers or cushions not designated by FCA US LLC for the specific model being repaired. Always use the correct seat cover and cushion specified for the vehicle. 4 Do not replace the seat cover or cushion with an aftermarket seat cover or cushion. Do not add a secondary seat cover or mat. At no time should any Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) component or SRS related component or fastener be modified or replaced with any part except those which are approved by FCA US LLC. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 190 190 SAFETY Unapproved modifications or service proce-
dures to the passenger seat assembly, its related components, seat cover or cushion may inadvertently change the air bag deployment in case of a frontal collision. This could result in death or serious injury to the front passenger if the vehicle is involved in a collision. A modified vehicle may not comply with required Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) and/or Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS). If it is necessary to modify the air bag system for persons with disabilities, contact an authorized dealer. Knee Impact Bolsters The Knee Impact Bolsters help protect the knees of the driver and front passenger, and position the front occupants for improved inter-
action with the front air bags. WARNING!
WARNING!
AIRBAG or AIRBAG on a label or on the seat trim on the outboard side of the seats. The SABs may help to reduce the risk of occu-
pant injury during certain side impacts, in addi-
tion to the injury reduction potential provided by the seat belts and body structure. Do not drill, cut, or tamper with the knee impact bolsters in any way. Do not mount any accessories to the knee impact bolsters such as alarm lights, stereos, citizen band radios, etc. Supplemental Driver And Front Passenger Knee Air Bags This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag mounted in the instrument panel below the steering column and a Supple-
mental Passenger Knee Air Bag mounted in the instrument panel below the glove compartment. The Supplemental Knee Air Bags provide enhanced protection during a frontal impact by working together with the seat belts, preten-
sioners, and front air bags. Supplemental Side Air Bags Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SABs) This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SABs). Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags
(SABs) are located in the outboard side of the front seats. The SABs are marked with SRS Front Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bag When the SAB deploys, it opens the seam on the outboard side of the seatbacks trim cover. The inflating SAB deploys through the seat seam into the space between the occupant and the door. The SAB moves at a very high speed and with such a high force that it could injure occupants if they are not seated properly, or if items are positioned in the area where the SAB inflates. Children are at an even greater risk of injury from a deploying air bag. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 191 WARNING!
Do not use accessory seat covers or place objects between you and the Side Air Bags;
the performance could be adversely affected and/or objects could be pushed into you, causing serious injury. Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains
(SABICs) This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains (SABICs). Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains
(SABICs) are located above the side windows. The trim covering the SABICs is labeled SRS AIRBAG or AIRBAG. SABICs may help reduce the risk of head and other injuries to front and rear seat outboard occupants in certain side impacts, in addition to the injury reduction potential provided by the seat belts and body structure. The SABIC deploys downward, covering the side windows. An inflating SABIC pushes the outside edge of the headliner out of the way and covers the window. The SABICs inflate with enough force to injure occupants if they are not belted and seated properly, or if items are positioned in the area where the SABICs inflate. Children are at an even greater risk of injury from a deploying air bag. The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or complete ejection of vehicle occupants through side windows in certain side impact events. WARNING!
Do not mount equipment, or stack luggage or other cargo up high enough to block the deployment of the SABICs. The trim covering above the side windows where the SABIC and its deployment path are located should remain free from any obstructions. SAFETY 191 WARNING! (Continued) In order for the SABICs to work as intended, do not install any accessory items in your vehicle which could alter the roof. Do not add an aftermarket sunroof to your vehicle. Do not add roof racks that require perma-
nent attachments (bolts or screws) for installation on the vehicle roof. Do not drill into the roof of the vehicle for any reason. 4 Side Impacts The Side Air Bags are designed to activate in certain side impacts. The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) determines whether the deployment of the Side Air Bags in a particular impact event is appropriate, based on the severity and type of collision. The side impact sensors aid the ORC in determining the appro-
priate response to impact events. The system is calibrated to deploy the Side Air Bags on the impact side of the vehicle during impacts that require Side Air Bag occupant protection. In side Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtain (SABIC)
(Continued) Label Location 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 192 192 SAFETY impacts, the Side Air Bags deploy inde-
pendently; a left side impact deploys the left Side Air Bags only and a right-side impact deploys the right Side Air Bags only. Vehicle damage by itself is not a good indicator of whether or not Side Air Bags should have deployed. The Side Air Bags will not deploy in all side colli-
sions, including some collisions at certain angles, or some side collisions that do not impact the area of the passenger compartment. The Side Air Bags may deploy during angled or offset frontal collisions where the front air bags deploy. Side Air Bags are a supplement to the seat belt restraint system. Side Air Bags deploy in less time than it takes to blink your eyes. WARNING!
WARNING!
Occupants, including children, who are up against or very close to Side Air Bags can be seriously injured or killed. Occupants, including children, should never lean on or sleep against the door, side windows, or area where the side air bags inflate, even if they are in an infant or child restraint. Seat belts (and child restraints where appropriate) are necessary for your protec-
tion in all collisions. They also help keep you in position, away from an inflating Side Air Bag. To get the best protection from the Side Air Bags, occupants must wear their seat belts properly and sit upright with their backs against the seats. Children must be properly restrained in a child restraint or booster seat that is appropriate for the size of the child. 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 Side Air Bags during deployment could cause you to be severely injured or killed. Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The Side Air Bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions, Side Air Bags wont deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt even though you have Side Air Bags. NOTE:
Air bag covers may not be obvious in the interior trim, but they will open during air bag deploy-
ment. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 193 Rollover Events Side Air Bags and seat belt pretensioners are designed to activate in certain rollover events. The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) deter-
mines whether deployment in a particular roll-
over event is appropriate, based on the severity and type of collision. Vehicle damage by itself is not a good indicator of whether or not Side Air Bags and seat belt pretensioners should have deployed. The Side Air Bags and seat belt pretensioners will not deploy in all rollover events. The rollover sensing system determines if a rollover event may be in progress and whether deployment is appropriate. In the event the vehicle experi-
ences a rollover or near rollover event, and deployment is appropriate, the rollover sensing system will deploy the side air bags and seat belt pretensioners on both sides of the vehicle. The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or complete ejection of vehicle occupants through side windows in certain rollover or side impact events. Air Bag System Components NOTE:
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) moni-
tors the internal circuits and interconnecting wiring associated with electrical Air Bag System Components listed below:

diately after deployment. NOTE:
Front and/or side air bags will not deploy in all collisions. This does not mean something is wrong with the air bag system. If you do have a collision which deploys the air bags, any or all of the following may occur:
The air bag material may sometimes cause abrasions and/or skin reddening to the occu-
pants as the air bags deploy and unfold. The abrasions are similar to friction rope burns or those you might get sliding along a carpet or gymnasium floor. They are not caused by contact with chemicals. They are not perma-
nent and normally heal quickly. However, if you havent healed significantly within a few days, or if you have any blistering, see your doctor immediately. As the air bags deflate, you may see some smoke-like particles. The particles are a normal by-product of the process that gener-
ates the non-toxic gas used for air bag infla-
tion. These airborne particles may irritate the skin, eyes, nose, or throat. If you have skin or 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 194 WARNING!
Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has equipped) power 194 SAFETY eye irritation, rinse the area with cool water. For nose or throat irritation, move to fresh air. If the irritation continues, see your doctor. If these particles settle on your clothing, follow the garment manufacturers instructions for cleaning. Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed. If you are involved in another colli-
sion, the air bags will not be in place to protect you. Deployed air bags and seat belt pretensioners cannot protect you in another collision. Have the air bags, seat belt pretensioners, and the seat belt retractor assemblies replaced by an authorized dealer immediately. Also, have the Occupant Restraint Controller System serviced as well. NOTE:
Air bag covers may not be obvious in the inte-
rior trim, but they will open during air bag deployment. After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer immediately. Enhanced Accident Response System In the event of an impact, if the communication network remains intact, and the power remains intact, depending on the nature of the event, the ORC will determine whether to have the Enhanced Accident Response System perform the following functions:
Cut off fuel to the engine (if equipped) Cut off battery power to the:
Engine Electric Motor (if equipped) Electric power steering Brake booster Electric park brake Cut off battery power to the electric motor (if Automatic transmission gear selector Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power or for 15 minutes from the intervention of the Enhanced Accident Response System. Unlock the power door locks Your vehicle may also be designed to perform any of these other functions in response to the Enhanced Accident Response System:
Turn off the Fuel Filter Heater, Turn off the HVAC Blower Motor, Close the HVAC Circula-
tion Door Horn Front wiper Headlamp washer pump NOTE:
After an accident, remember to cycle the ignition to the STOP (OFF/LOCK) position and remove the key from the ignition switch to avoid draining the battery. Carefully check the vehicle for fuel leaks in the engine compartment and on the ground near the engine compartment and fuel tank before resetting the system and starting the engine. If there are no fuel leaks or damage to the vehicle electrical devices (e.g. headlights) after an acci-
dent, reset the system by following the procedure described below. If you have any doubt, contact an authorized dealer. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 195 Enhanced Accident Response System Reset Procedure If applicable, refer to the Hybrid Supplement for additional information. In order to reset the Enhanced Accident Response System functions after an event, the ignition switch must be changed from ignition START or ON/RUN to ignition OFF. Carefully check the vehicle for fuel leaks in the engine compartment and on the ground near the engine compartment and fuel tank before reset-
ting the system and starting the engine. Maintaining Your Air Bag System WARNING!
Modifications to any part of the air bag system could cause it to fail when you need it. You could be injured if the air bag system is not there to protect you. Do not modify the components or wiring, including adding any kind of badges or stickers to the steering wheel hub trim cover or the upper passenger side of the instrument panel. Do not modify the front bumper, vehicle body structure, or add aftermarket side steps or running boards.
(Continued) WARNING! (Continued) It is dangerous to try to repair any part of the air bag system yourself. Be sure to tell anyone who works on your vehicle that it has an air bag system. Do not attempt to modify any part of your air bag system. The air bag may inflate acciden-
tally or may not function properly if modifica-
tions are made. Take your vehicle to an authorized dealer for any air bag system service. If your seat, including your trim cover and cushion, needs to be serviced in any way
(including removal or loosening/tightening of seat attachment bolts), take the vehicle to an authorized dealer. Only manufacturer approved seat accessories may be used. If it is necessary to modify the air bag system for persons with disabilities, contact an autho-
rized dealer. 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 vehicles systems SAFETY 195 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, 4 How fast the vehicle was traveling. These data can help provide a better under-
standing 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. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 196 196 SAFETY To read data recorded by an EDR, special equip-
ment 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. Child Restraints Everyone in your vehicle needs to be buckled up at all times, including babies and children. Every state in the United States, and every Canadian province, requires that small children ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it. Children 12 years or younger should ride prop-
erly 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. WARNING!
In a collision, an unrestrained child 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 badly injured or killed. Any child riding in your vehicle should be in a proper restraint for the childs size. There are different sizes and types of restraints for children from newborn size to the child almost large enough for an adult safety belt. Always check the child seat Owners Manual to make sure you have the correct seat for your child. Carefully read and follow all the instruc-
tions and warnings in the child restraint Owners Manual and on all the labels attached to the child restraint. Before buying any restraint system, make sure that it has a label certifying that it meets all applicable Safety Standards. You should also make sure that you can install it in the vehicle where you will use it. NOTE:

Two types of child restraints can be used rear-facing: infant carriers and convertible child seats. The infant carrier is only used rear-facing in the vehicle. It is recommended for children from birth until they reach the weight or height limit of the infant carrier. Convertible child seats can be used either rear-facing or forward-facing in the vehicle. Convertible child seats often have a higher weight limit in the rear-facing direction than infant carriers do, so they can be used rear-facing by children who have outgrown their infant carrier but are still less than at least two years old. Children should remain rear-facing until they reach the highest weight or height allowed by their convertible child seat. WARNING!
WARNING!
Do not install a rear-facing car seat using a rear support leg in this vehicle. The floor of this vehicle is not designed to manage the crash forces of this type of car seat. In a crash, the support leg may not function as it was designed by the car seat manufacturer, and your child may be more severely injured as a result. Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an air bag. A deploying passenger front air bag can cause death or serious injury to a child 12 years or younger, including a child in a rear-facing child restraint. Never install a rear-facing child restraint in the front seat of a vehicle. Only use a rear-facing child restraint in the rear seat. If the vehicle does not have a rear seat, do not transport a rear-facing child restraint in that vehicle. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 199 Older Children And Child Restraints Children who are two years old or who have outgrown their rear-facing convertible child seat can ride forward-facing in the vehicle. Forward-facing child seats and convertible child seats used in the forward-facing direction are for children who are over two years old or who have outgrown the rear-facing weight or height limit of their rear-facing convertible child seat. Children should remain in a forward-facing child seat with a harness for as long as possible, up to the highest weight or height allowed by the child seat. All children whose weight or height is above the forward-facing limit for the child seat should use a belt-positioning booster seat until the vehicles seat belts fit properly. If the child cannot sit with knees bent over the vehicles seat cushion while the childs back is against the seatback, they should use a belt-positioning booster seat. The child and belt-positioning booster seat are held in the vehicle by the seat belt. WARNING!
Improper installation can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. It could come loose in a collision. The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the child restraint manufacturers directions exactly when installing an infant or child restraint. After a child restraint is installed in the vehicle, do not move the vehicle seat forward or rearward because it can loosen the child restraint attachments. Remove the child restraint before adjusting the vehicle seat position. When the vehicle seat has been adjusted, reinstall the child restraint. When your child restraint is not in use, secure it in the vehicle with the seat belt or LATCH anchorages, or remove it from the vehicle. Do not leave it loose in the vehicle. In a sudden stop or accident, it could strike the occupants or seatbacks and cause serious personal injury. SAFETY 199 Children Too Large For Booster Seats Children who are large enough to wear the shoulder belt comfortably, and whose legs are long enough to bend over the front of the seat when their back is against the seatback, should use the seat belt in a rear seat. Use this simple 5-step test to decide whether the child can use the vehicles seat belt alone:
1. Can the child sit all the way back against the back of the vehicle seat?
4 2. Do the childs knees bend comfortably over the front of the vehicle seat while the child is still sitting all the way back?
3. Does the shoulder belt cross the childs shoulder between the neck and arm?
4. Is the lap part of the belt as low as possible, touching the childs thighs and not the stomach?
5. Can the child stay seated like this for the whole trip?
If the answer to any of these questions was no, then the child still needs to use a booster seat in this vehicle. If the child is using the lap/
shoulder belt, check seat belt fit periodically 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 200 200 SAFETY and make sure the seat belt buckle is latched. A childs squirming or slouching can move the belt out of position. If the shoulder belt contacts the face or neck, move the child closer to the center of the vehicle, or use a booster seat to position the seat belt on the child correctly. WARNING!
Never allow a child to put the shoulder belt under an arm or behind their back. In a crash, the shoulder belt will not protect a child properly, which may result in serious injury or death. A child must always wear both the lap and shoulder portions of the seat belt correctly.

(LATCH) Restraint System LATCH Positions For Installing Child Restraints In This Vehicle If applicable, refer to the Hybrid Supplement for additional information. SAFETY 201 LATCH Label Your vehicle is equipped with the child restraint anchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren. The LATCH system has three vehicle anchor points for installing LATCH-equipped child seats. There are two lower anchorages located at the back of the seat cushion where it meets the seatback and one top tether anchorage located behind the seating position. These anchorages are used to install LATCH-equipped child seats without using the vehicles seat belts. Some seating positions may have a top tether anchorage but no lower anchorages. In these seating positions, the seat belt must be used with the top tether anchorage to install the child restraint. Please see the following table for more information. 7 Passenger Stow n Go Seating LATCH Positions Lower Anchorage Symbol 2 anchorages per 4 seating position Top Tether Anchorage Symbol 7 Passenger Bench Seat LATCH Positions Lower Anchorage Symbol 2 anchorages per seating position Top Tether Anchorage Symbol 8 Passenger LATCH Positions Lower Anchorage Symbol 2 anchorages per seating position Top Tether Anchorage Symbol 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 202 202 SAFETY Frequently Asked Questions About Installing Child Restraints With LATCH What is the weight limit (childs weight + weight of the child restraint) for using the LATCH anchorage system to attach the child restraint?
65 lbs (29.5 kg) Can the LATCH anchorages and the seat belt be used together to attach a rear-facing or forward-facing child restraint?
Can two child restraints be attached using a common lower LATCH anchorage?
Can the rear-facing child restraint touch the back of the front passenger seat?
No No Yes Use the LATCH anchorage system until the combined weight of the child and the child restraint is 65 lbs (29.5 kg). Use the seat belt and tether anchor instead of the LATCH system once the combined weight is more than 65 lbs (29.5 kg). Do not use the seat belt when you use the LATCH anchorage system to attach a rear-facing or forward-facing child restraint. Booster seats may be attached to the LATCH anchorages if allowed by the booster seat manufacturer. See your booster seat owners manual for more information. Never share a LATCH anchorage with two or more child restraints. If the center position does not have dedicated LATCH lower anchorages, use the seat belt to install a child seat in the center position next to a child seat using the LATCH anchorages in an outboard position. The child seat may touch the back of the front passenger seat if the child restraint manufacturer also allows contact. See your child restraint owners manual for more information. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 203 Can the rear head restraints be removed?
Yes Frequently Asked Questions About Installing Child Restraints With LATCH NOTE:
If the folding, non-adjustable head restraint interferes with the installation of the child restraint, the head restraint may be folded and the child seat installed in front of it. WARNING!
Always make sure the head restraint is in its upright position when the seat is to be used by an occupant who is not in a child restraint. Sitting in a seat with the head restraint in its lowered position could result in serious injury or death in a collision. SAFETY 203 The 2nd row head restraints on bench and the center head restraint in the 8 passenger vehicle can be removed if they interfere with the installation of the child restraint. 2nd row Stow 'n Go head restraints are not removable. The 3rd row center head restraint is removable in all vehicles, but the 3rd row outboard head restraints are not removable. Refer to Head Restraints in Getting To Know Your Vehicle for further information. 4 Car Seat With Head Restraint Folded 1 Folded Headrest 2 Child Restraint 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 204 204 SAFETY Locating The LATCH Anchorages If applicable, refer to the Hybrid Supplement for additional information. The lower anchorages are round bars that are found at the rear of the seat cushion where it meets the seatback, below the anchorage symbols on the seatback. They are just visible when you lean into the rear seat to install the child restraint. You will easily feel them if you run your finger along the gap between the seatback and seat cushion. Locating The Upper Tether Anchorages If applicable, refer to the Hybrid Supplement for additional information. There are tether strap anchorages located behind all second row seating positions. The third row has a tether anchor on the 40% seat for the right outboard position and in the center of the 60%

Forward-facing child restraints and some rear-facing child restraints will also be equipped with a tether strap. The tether strap will have a hook at the end to attach to the top tether anchorage and a way to tighten the strap after it is attached to the anchorage. Center Seat LATCH This vehicle has 4 lower LATCH anchorages in the third row, rear seat. Anchorages A and B are used for the right outboard position behind the front passenger (1). Anchorages C and D are used for the center seating position (2). The left outboard position (3) does not have lower anchorages. Do not install a child restraint using anchorages B and C. This is not a LATCH position in your vehicle. SAFETY 205 If a child restraint installed in the center position blocks the seat belt webbing or buckle for the outboard position, do not use that outboard position. If a child seat in the center position blocks the outboard LATCH anchors or seat belt, do not install a child seat in that outboard position. WARNING!
Use anchorages C and D to install a 4 LATCH-compatible child restraint in the center seating position (2). Do not install a LATCH-compatible child restraint using anchorages B and C. This is not a LATCH-compatible position in your vehicle. Never use the same lower anchorage to attach more than one child restraint. Please refer to "To Install A LATCH-Compat-
ible Child Restraint" for typical installation instructions. Always follow the directions of the child restraint manufacturer when installing your child restraint. Not all child restraint systems will be installed as described here. Tether Strap Anchorages
(Third Row 60/40 Anchorage Shown) LATCH-compatible child restraint systems will be equipped with a rigid bar or a flexible strap on each side. Each will have a hook or connector to attach to the lower anchorage and a way to tighten the connection to the Center Seat LATCH Positions 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 206 206 SAFETY To Install A LATCH-Compatible Child Restraint If the selected seating position has a Switch-
able Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) seat belt, stow the seat belt, following the instruc-
tions below. See the section Installing Child Restraints Using the Vehicle Seat Belt to check what type of seat belt each seating position has. 1. Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap of the child seat so that you can more easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle anchorages. 2. Place the child seat between the lower anchorages for that seating position. For some second row seats, you may need to recline the seat and/or raise the head restraint (if adjustable) to get a better fit. If the rear seat can be moved forward and rearward in the vehicle, you may wish to move it to its rear-most position to make room for the child seat. You may also move the front seat forward to allow more room for the child seat. 3. Attach the lower hooks or connectors of the child restraint to the lower anchorages in the selected seating position. 4. If the child restraint has a tether strap, connect it to the top tether anchorage. See the section Installing Child Restraints Using the Top Tether Anchorage for directions to attach a tether anchor. 5. Tighten all of the straps as you push the child restraint rearward and downward into the seat. Remove slack in the straps according to the child restraint manufacturers instructions. 6. Test that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling back and forth on the child seat at the belt path. It should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm) in any direction. How To Stow An Unused Switchable-ALR
(ALR) Seat Belt:
When using the LATCH attaching system to install a child restraint, stow all ALR seat belts that are not being used by other occupants or being used to secure child restraints. An unused belt could injure a child if they play with it and accidentally lock the seat belt retractor. Before installing a child restraint using the LATCH system, buckle the seat belt behind the child restraint and out of the childs reach. If the buckled seat belt interferes with the child restraint installation, instead of buckling it behind the child restraint, route the seat belt through the child restraint belt path and then buckle it. Do not lock the seat belt. Remind all children in the vehicle that the seat belts are not toys and that they should not play with them. WARNING!
Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages can lead to failure of the restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the child restraint manufacturers directions exactly when installing an infant or child restraint. Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly-fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses, or for attaching other items or equipment to the vehicle. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 207 Installing Child Restraints Using The Vehicle Seat Belt Child restraint systems are designed to be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt. WARNING!
Improper installation or failure to properly secure a child restraint can lead to failure of the restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the child restraint manufacturers directions exactly when installing an infant or child restraint. The seat belts in the passenger seating posi-
tions are equipped with a Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) that is designed to keep the lap portion of the seat belt tight around the child restraint so that it is not necessary to use a locking clip. The ALR retractor can be switched into a locked mode by pulling all of the webbing out of the retractor and then letting the webbing retract back into the retractor. If it is locked, the ALR will make a clicking noise while the webbing is pulled back into the retractor. Refer to the Automatic Locking Mode descrip-
tion in Switchable Automatic Locking Retrac-
tors (ALR) under Occupant Restraint Systems for additional information on ALR. Lap/Shoulder Belt Systems For Installing Child Restraints In This Vehicle If applicable, refer to the Hybrid Supplement for additional information. 7 Passenger Bench Seat Automatic Locking Retractor

Child restraint systems are designed to be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt. WARNING!
Improper installation or failure to properly secure a child restraint can lead to failure of the restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the child restraint manufacturers directions exactly when installing an infant or child restraint. 1. Place the child seat in the center of the seating position. For some second row seats, you may need to recline the seat and/or raise the head restraint (if adjust-
able) to get a better fit. If the rear seat can be moved forward and rearward in the vehicle, you may wish to move it to its rear-most position to make room for the child seat. You may also move the front seat forward to allow more room for the child seat. 4 SAFETY 209 2. Pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to pass it through the belt path of the child restraint. Do not twist the belt webbing in the belt path. 3. Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a click. 4. Pull on the webbing to make the lap portion tight against the child seat. 5. To lock the seat belt, pull down on the shoulder part of the belt until you have pulled all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor. Then, allow the webbing to retract back into the retractor. As the webbing retracts, you will hear a clicking sound. This means the seat belt is now in the Automatic Locking mode. 6. Try to pull the webbing out of the retractor. If it is locked, you should not be able to pull out any webbing. If the retractor is not locked, repeat step 5. 7. Finally, pull up on any excess webbing to tighten the lap portion around the child restraint while you push the child restraint rearward and downward into the vehicle seat. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 210 210 SAFETY 8. If the child restraint has a top tether strap and the seating position has a top tether anchorage, connect the tether strap to the anchorage and tighten the tether strap. See the section Installing Child Restraints Using the Top Tether Anchorage for direc-
tions to attach a tether anchor. 9. Test that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling back and forth on the child seat at the belt path. It should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm) in any direc-
tion. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary. Seat Belt Park Stitch If Equipped The rear outboard seat belts may be equipped with a park stitch to raise the latch plate for easier access to occupants. If the park stitch interferes with the tight installation of a child restraint, slide the latch plate over the stitching to shorten the lap portion of the belt and install the car seat following the steps above. When the car seat is removed from the vehicle, slide the latch plate above the park stitch to enable occupants to latch the seatbelt securely. If the park stitch interferes with the lock-off features of the child restraint, do not use the lock-off feature. Instead, switch the seat belt to the locking mode, as described in the steps above or move the car seat to a different seating position. Seat Belt Park Stitch Seat Belt Park Stitch Location 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 211 Installing Child Restraints Using the Top Tether Anchorage If applicable, refer to the Hybrid Supplement for additional information. WARNING!
Do not attach a tether strap for a rear-facing car seat to any location in front of the car seat, including the seat frame or a tether anchorage. Only attach the tether strap of a rear-facing car seat to the tether anchorage that is approved for that seating position, located behind the top of the vehicle seat. See the section Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren (LATCH) Restraint System for the location of approved tether anchorages in your vehicle. 1. Look behind the seating position where you plan to install the child restraint to find the tether anchorage. You may need to move the seat forward to provide better access to the tether anchorage. If there is no top tether anchorage for that seating position, move the child restraint to another position in the vehicle if one is available. Top Tether Anchorage Locations 2nd Row 8 Passenger SAFETY 211 Top Tether Anchorage Locations 3rd Row 4 2. Route the tether strap to provide the most direct path for the strap between the anchor and the child seat. If your vehicle is equipped with adjustable rear head restraints, raise the head restraint, and where possible, route the tether strap under the head restraint and between the two posts. If not possible, lower the head restraint and pass the tether strap around the outboard side of the head restraint. 3. Attach the tether strap hook of the child restraint to the top tether anchorage as shown in the diagram. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 212 212 SAFETY 4. Remove slack in the tether strap according to the child restraint manufacturers instructions. WARNING!
An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchorage position directly behind the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap. If your vehicle is equipped with a split rear seat, make sure the tether strap does not slip into the opening between the seat-
backs as you remove slack in the strap. Third Row Tether Attachment The tether anchorage found on the back of the 60% seat in the third row may be used by either the left outboard or the center seating position. Only tether one child restraint to the tether anchorage at a time. To connect the tether strap hook to the tether anchorage for either seating position on the 60% third row seat:
1. Route the tether strap to provide the most direct path for the strap between the anchor and the child seat. If the car seat is in the center, raise the center head restraint and route the tether strap around the inboard (left) side of the head restraint support posts, as shown in the diagram. 3. Attach the tether strap hook of the child restraint to the top tether anchorage as shown in the diagram. 4. Remove slack in the tether strap according to the child restraint manufacturers instructions. Outboard Tether Attachments 3rd Row Rear Seat Tether Strap Attachment (Second Row 7 Passenger Stow n Go Anchorage Shown) 2. Center Tether Attachment 3rd Row 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 213 WARNING!
Do not connect the tether strap for more than one child restraint to the tether anchorage on the 60% seat in the third row. This anchorage is intended for one child restraint at a time. Transporting Pets Air Bags deploying in the front seat could harm your pet. An unrestrained pet will be thrown about and possibly injured, or injure a passenger during panic braking or in a collision. Pets should be restrained in the rear seat (if equipped) in pet harnesses or pet carriers that are secured by seat belts. SAFETY TIPS Transporting Passengers NEVER TRANSPORT PASSENGERS IN THE CARGO AREA. WARNING!
Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up may cause serious injury or death. It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed. Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts. Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly. Exhaust Gas SAFETY 213 WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and odorless. Breathing it can make you unconscious and can eventually poison you. To avoid breathing (CO), follow these safety tips:
Do not run the engine in a closed garage or in confined areas any longer than needed to move your vehicle in or out of the area. 4 If you are required to drive with the trunk/
liftgate/rear doors open, make sure that all windows are closed and the climate control BLOWER switch is set at high speed. DO NOT use the recirculation mode. If it is necessary to sit in a parked vehicle with the engine running, adjust your heating or cooling controls to force outside air into the vehicle. Set the blower at high speed. The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle body is a properly main-
tained engine exhaust system. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 214 214 SAFETY Whenever a change is noticed in the sound of the exhaust system, when exhaust fumes can be detected inside the vehicle, or when the underside or rear of the vehicle is damaged, have a competent mechanic inspect the complete exhaust system and adjacent body areas for broken, damaged, deteriorated, or mispositioned parts. Open seams or loose connections could permit exhaust fumes to seep into the passenger compartment. In addi-
tion, inspect the exhaust system each time the vehicle is raised for lubrication or oil change. Replace as required. Safety Checks You Should Make Inside The Vehicle Seat Belts Inspect the seat belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, and loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the system. Front seat belt assemblies must be replaced after a collision. Rear seat belt assemblies must be replaced after a collision if they have been damaged (i.e., bent retractor, torn webbing, etc.). If there is any question regarding seat belt or retractor condition, replace the seat belt. Air Bag Warning Light The Air Bag warning light will turn on for four to eight seconds as a bulb check when the igni-
tion switch is first turned to ON/RUN. If the light is either not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, have the system inspected at an authorized dealer as soon as possible. After the bulb check, this light will illu-
minate with a single chime when a fault with the Air Bag System has been detected. It will stay on until the fault is removed. If the light comes on intermittently or remains on while driving, have an authorized dealer service the vehicle imme-
diately. Refer to Occupant Restraint Systems in Safety for further information. Defroster Check operation by selecting the defrost mode and place the blower control on high speed. You should be able to feel the air directed against the windshield. See an authorized dealer for service if your defroster is inoperable. Floor Mat Safety Information Always use floor mats designed to fit your vehicle. Only use a floor mat that does not inter-
fere with the operation of the accelerator, brake or clutch pedals. Only use a floor mat that is securely attached using the floor mat fasteners so it cannot slip out of position and interfere with the accelerator, brake or clutch pedals or impair safe operation of your vehicle in other ways. WARNING!
An improperly attached, damaged, folded, or stacked floor mat, or damaged floor mat fasteners may cause your floor mat to interfere with the accelerator, brake, or clutch pedals and cause a loss of vehicle control. To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:
ALWAYS securely attach your floor mat using the floor mat fasteners. DO NOT install your floor mat upside down or turn your floor mat over. Lightly pull to confirm mat is secured using the floor mat fasteners on a regular basis.
(Continued) 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 215 WARNING! (Continued) WARNING! (Continued) ALWAYS REMOVE THE EXISTING FLOOR MAT FROM THE VEHICLE installing any other floor mat. NEVER install or stack an additional floor mat on top of an existing floor mat. before ONLY install floor mats designed to fit your vehicle. NEVER install a floor mat that cannot be properly attached and secured to your vehicle. If a floor mat needs to be replaced, only use a FCA approved floor mat for the specific make, model, and year of your vehicle. ONLY use the drivers side floor mat on the drivers side floor area. To check for inter-
ference, with the vehicle properly parked with the engine off, fully depress the accel-
erator, the brake, and the clutch pedal (if present) to check for interference. If your floor mat interferes with the operation of any pedal, or is not secure to the floor, remove the floor mat from the vehicle and place the floor mat in your trunk. ONLY use the passengers side floor mat on the passengers side floor area.
(Continued) ALWAYS make sure objects cannot fall or slide into the drivers side floor area when the vehicle is moving. Objects can become trapped under accelerator, brake, or clutch pedals and could cause a loss of vehicle control. NEVER place any objects under the floor mat (e.g., towels, keys, etc.). These objects could change the position of the floor mat and may cause interference with the accel-
erator, brake, or clutch pedals. If the vehicle carpet has been removed and re-installed, always properly attach carpet to the floor and check the floor mat fasteners are secure to the vehicle carpet. Fully depress each pedal to check for inter-
ference with the accelerator, brake, or clutch pedals then re-install the floor mats. It is recommended to only use mild soap and water to clean your floor mats. After cleaning, always check your floor mat has been properly installed and is secured to your vehicle using the floor mat fasteners by lightly pulling mat. SAFETY 215 Periodic Safety Checks You Should Make Outside The Vehicle Tires Examine tires for excessive tread wear and uneven wear patterns. Check for stones, nails, glass, or other objects lodged in the tread or sidewall. Inspect the tread for cuts and cracks. Inspect sidewalls for cuts, cracks, and bulges. Check the wheel nuts for tightness. Check the tires (including spare) for proper cold inflation pressure. 4 Lights Have someone observe the operation of brake lights and exterior lights while you work the controls. Check turn signal and high beam indi-
cator lights on the instrument panel. Door Latches Check for proper closing, latching, and locking. Fluid Leaks Check area under the vehicle after overnight parking for fuel, coolant, oil, or other fluid leaks. Also, if gasoline fumes are detected or if fuel, or brake fluid leaks are suspected, the cause should be located and corrected immediately. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 216 216 STARTING AND OPERATING STARTING THE ENGINE Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust both inside and outside mirrors, and fasten your seat belts. WARNING!
When exiting the vehicle, always remove the key fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle. Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to be in a vehicle unat-
tended 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 transmission gear selector.
(Continued) WARNING! (Continued) Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil-
dren, and do not leave the ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle. Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up may cause serious injury or death. Start the engine with the gear selector in the NEUTRAL (N) or PARK (P) position. Apply the brake before shifting to any driving range. Normal Starting NOTE:
Normal starting of either a cold or a warm engine is obtained without pumping or pressing the accelerator pedal. To Turn On The Engine Using ENGINE START/
STOP Button 1. The transmission must be in PARK or NEUTRAL. 2. Press and hold the brake pedal while pushing the ENGINE START/STOP button once. 3. The system takes over and attempts to start the vehicle. If the vehicle fails to start, the starter will disengage automatically after 10 seconds. 4. If you wish to stop the cranking of the engine prior to the engine starting, push the button again. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 217 ENGINE START/STOP Button Functions With Drivers Foot OFF The Brake Pedal (In PARK Or NEUTRAL Position) The ENGINE START/STOP button operates similar to an ignition switch. It has three posi-
tions; OFF, ACC, and RUN. To change the igni-
tion positions without starting the vehicle and to use the accessories follow these steps:
Starting with the ignition in the OFF position, Push the ENGINE START/STOP button once to place the ignition to the ACC position
(instrument cluster will display ACC), Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a second time to place the ignition to the RUN position (instrument cluster will display ON/RUN), Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a third time to return the ignition to the OFF position
(instrument cluster will display OFF). NOTE:

If pressure is detected on both pedals simultaneously, a warning message will display in the instrument cluster. Refer to Instrument Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for further infor-
mation. AutoPark AutoPark is a supplemental feature to assist in placing the vehicle in PARK should the situa-
tions on the following pages occur. It is a back up system and should not be relied upon as the primary method by which the driver shifts the vehicle into PARK. The conditions under which AutoPark will engage are outlined on the following pages. STARTING AND OPERATING 217 WARNING!
Driver inattention could lead to failure to place the vehicle in PARK. ALWAYS DO A VISUAL CHECK that your vehicle is in PARK by verifying that a solid (not blinking) P is indicated in the instrument cluster display and near the gear selector. If the "P" indicator is blinking, your vehicle is not in PARK. As an added precau-
tion, always apply the parking brake when exiting the vehicle. AutoPark is a supplemental feature. It is not designed to replace the need to shift your vehicle into PARK. It is a back up system and should not be relied upon as the primary method by which the driver shifts the vehicle into PARK. 5 ALWAYS DO A VISUAL CHECK that your vehicle is in PARK by looking for the P in the Instru-
ment Cluster Display and on the shifter. As an added precaution, always apply the parking brake. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 218 218 STARTING AND OPERATING If the vehicle is not in PARK and the driver attempts to turn off the engine, if certain condi-
tions are met, the vehicle will AutoPark, auto-
matically shifting the vehicles transmission to the PARK position. The rotary shifter will auto-
matically reset itself to the PARK position. The vehicles ignition will then move to the OFF posi-
tion (Engine off). When AutoPark is activated the instrument cluster will display the message AutoPark Engaged AutoPark will engage when all of these condi-
tions are met:
Vehicle is equipped with a rotary selector Vehicle is not in PARK Vehicle speed is 1.2 mph (1.9 km/h) or less If the vehicle is not in PARK and the driver exits the vehicle with the engine running, if certain conditions are met, the vehicle will AutoPark, automatically shifting the vehicles transmis-
sion to the PARK position. The Electric Park Brake SAFE HOLD feature will also activate in some conditions. Please reference SAFE HOLD pages for additional information regarding this function. CAUTION!
Engine will remain running. AutoPark will engage when all of these condi-
tions are met:
Vehicle is equipped with a rotary selector Driver has pushed the ENGINE START/STOP Vehicle is not in PARK BUTTON Vehicle speed is 1.2 mph (1.9 km/h) or less Drivers door is ajar Drivers seat belt is unbuckled Brake pedal is not depressed The MESSAGE AutoPark Engaged will display in the instrument cluster. AutoPark In Stop/Start Autostop Mode AutoPark will engage when all of these condi-
tions are met:
Vehicle is equipped with a rotary shifter Vehicle is not in PARK Vehicle speed is 1.2 mph (1.9 km/h) or less Drivers door is ajar Drivers seat belt is unbuckled or Brake Pedal is not depressed The MESSAGE AutoPark Engaged will display in the instrument cluster. WARNING!
Never use the PARK position as a substi-
tute for the parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully when exiting the vehicle to guard against vehicle movement and possible injury or damage. Your vehicle could move and injure you and others if it is not in PARK. Check by trying to move the transmission gear selector out of PARK with the brake pedal released. Make sure the transmission is in PARK before exiting the vehicle.
(Continued) 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 219 WARNING! (Continued) WARNING! (Continued) WARNING! (Continued) The transmission may not engage PARK if the vehicle is moving. Always bring the vehicle to a complete stop before shifting to PARK, and verify that the transmission gear position indicator solidly indicates PARK (P) without blinking. Ensure that the vehicle is completely stopped, and the PARK position is properly indicated, before exiting the vehicle. It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle could accel-
erate quickly forward or in reverse. You could lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or something. Only shift into gear when the engine is idling normally and your foot is firmly pressing the brake pedal.
(Continued) Unintended movement of a vehicle could injure those in or near the vehicle. As with all vehicles, you should never exit a vehicle while the engine is running. Before exiting a vehicle, always come to a complete stop, then apply the parking brake, shift the transmission into PARK, and turn the igni-
tion OFF. When the ignition is in the OFF mode, the transmission is locked in PARK, securing the vehicle against unwanted movement. When exiting the vehicle, always make sure the ignition is in the OFF mode, remove the key fob from the vehicle, and lock the vehicle. Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to be in a vehicle unat-
tended 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 transmission gear selector.
(Continued) STARTING AND OPERATING 219 Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle (or in a location accessible to chil-
dren), and do not leave the ignition in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle. CAUTION!
Damage to the transmission may occur if the following precautions are not observed:
5 Shift into or out of PARK or REVERSE only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. Do not shift between PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, or DRIVE when the engine is above idle speed. Before shifting into any gear, make sure your foot is firmly pressing the brake pedal. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 220 220 STARTING AND OPERATING To Turn On The Engine Using ENGINE START/
STOP Button 1. The transmission must be in PARK or NEUTRAL. 2. Press and hold the brake pedal while pushing the ENGINE START/STOP button once. To release the parking brake manually, the igni-
tion switch must be in the ON/RUN position. Press on the brake pedal, then push the park brake switch momentarily. If the driver shifts into PARK while moving, the vehicle may Park. PARK will engage ONLY when vehicle speed is 1.2 mph (1.9 km/h) or less. The MESSAGE Vehicle Speed is Too High to Shift to P will display in the Instrument Cluster Display if vehicle speed is above 1.2 mph
(1.9 km/h). The gear position indicator will blink continuously until the selector is returned to the proper position, or the requested shift can be completed. WARNING!
If vehicle speed is not below 1.2 mph
(1.9 km/h) when the driver shifts into PARK, the transmission will default to NEUTRAL until the vehicle speed drops below 1.2 mph
(1.9 km/h) and the above condition are met, enabling AutoPark. A vehicle left in the NEUTRAL position can roll. As an added precaution, always apply the parking brake when exiting the vehicle. Cold Weather Operation (Below 22F Or 30C) To ensure reliable starting at these tempera-
tures, use of an externally powered electric engine block heater (available from your autho-
rized dealer) is recommended. After Starting Warming Up The Engine The idle speed is controlled automatically and it will decrease as the engine warms up. If Engine Fails To Start WARNING!
Never pour fuel or other flammable liquid into the throttle body air inlet opening in an attempt to start the vehicle. This could result in flash fire causing serious personal injury. Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to get it started. Vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission cannot be started this way. Unburned fuel could enter the catalytic converter and once the engine has started, ignite and damage the converter and vehicle. If the vehicle has a discharged battery, booster cables may be used to obtain a start from a booster battery or the battery in another vehicle. This type of start can be dangerous if done improperly. Refer to Jump Starting Procedure in In Case Of Emergency for further information. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 221 To Turn Off The Engine Using ENGINE START/STOP Button 1. Place the gear selector in PARK, then push and release the ENGINE START/STOP button. 2. The ignition switch will return to the OFF position. 3. If the gear selector is not in PARK, the ENGINE START/STOP button must be held for two seconds or three short pushes in a row with the vehicle speed above 5 mph (8 km/h) before the engine will shut off. The ignition switch position will remain in the ACC position until the gear selector is in PARK and the button is pushed twice to the OFF position. If the gear selector is not in PARK and the ENGINE START/STOP button is pushed once, the instru-
ment cluster will display a Vehicle Not In Park message and the engine will remain running. Never leave a vehicle out of the PARK position, or it could roll. NOTE:
If the ignition switch is left in the ACC or RUN
(engine not running) position and the transmis-
sion is in PARK, the system will automatically time out after 30 minutes of inactivity and the ignition will switch to the OFF position. ENGINE BLOCK HEATER IF EQUIPPED The engine block heater warms the engine and permits quicker starts in cold weather. Connect the cord to a 110-115 Volt AC electrical outlet with a grounded, three-wire extension cord. For ambient temperatures below 0F (-18C), the engine block heater is recommended. For ambient temperatures below -20F (-29C), the engine block heater is required. The engine block heater cord is routed under the hood, behind to the passengers side head-
lamp. Follow the steps below to properly use the engine block heater:
1. Locate the engine block heater cord
(behind the passengers side headlamp). 2. Undo the hook-and-loop strap that secures the heater cord in place. 3. Pull the cord to the front of the vehicle and plug it into a grounded, three-wire extension cord. STARTING AND OPERATING 221 4. After the vehicle is running, reattach the cord to the hook-and-loop strap and prop-
erly stow away behind the passengers side headlamp. NOTE:
The engine block heater cord is a factory installed option. If your vehicle is not equipped, heater cords are available from your authorized Mopar dealer. The engine block heater will require 110 Volts AC and 6.5 Amps to activate the heater element. 5 The engine block heater must be plugged in at least one hour to have an adequate warming effect on the engine. WARNING!
Remember to disconnect the engine block heater cord before driving. Damage to the 110-115 Volt electrical cord could cause electrocution. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 222 222 STARTING AND OPERATING 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 contributes to a good break-in. Wide-open throttle accelera-
tion 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 Dealer Service in Servicing And Maintenance. CAUTION!
Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may result. NOTE:
A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of opera-
tion. This should be considered a normal part of the break-in and not interpreted as a problem. PARK BRAKE Electric Park Brake (EPB) Your vehicle is equipped with an Electric Park Brake System (EPB) that offers simple opera-
tion, and some additional features that make the park brake more convenient and useful. The park brake is primarily intended to prevent the vehicle from rolling while parked. Before leaving the vehicle, make sure that the park brake is applied. Also, be certain to leave the transmission in PARK. You can engage the park brake in two ways;
Manually, by applying the park brake switch. Automatically, by enabling the Auto Park Brake feature in the customer programmable features section of the Uconnect Settings. The park brake switch is located in the inte-
grated center stack. Electric Park Brake Switch To apply the park brake manually, push the switch momentarily. You may hear a slight whir-
ring sound from the back of the vehicle while the park brake engages. Once the park brake is fully engaged, the BRAKE warning lamp in the instrument cluster and an indicator on the switch will illuminate. If your foot is on the brake pedal while you apply the park brake, you may notice a small amount of brake pedal move-
ment. The park brake can be applied even when the ignition switch is OFF, however, it can only be released when the ignition switch in the ACC or ON/RUN position. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 223 NOTE:
The EPB fault lamp will illuminate if the EPB switch is held for longer than 180 seconds. The light will extinguish upon releasing the switch. If the Auto Park Brake feature is enabled, the parking brake will automatically engage when-
ever the transmission is placed into PARK. Once the park brake is engaged, the BRAKE warning lamp in the instrument cluster and the LED indi-
cator on the switch will illuminate. If your foot is on the brake pedal, you may notice a small amount of brake pedal movement while the parking brake is engaging. The park brake will release automatically when the ignition is cycled to the ON/RUN position, the transmission is in DRIVE or REVERSE, and the driver seat belt is buckled and an attempt is made to drive the vehicle away by pressing the accelerator pedal. To release the parking brake manually, the igni-
tion switch must be in the ON/RUN position. Press on the brake pedal, then push the park brake switch momentarily. You may hear a slight whirring sound from the back of the vehicle while the parking brake disengages. You may also notice a small amount of movement in the brake pedal. Once the park brake is fully disengaged, the BRAKE warning lamp in the instrument cluster and the LED indicator on the switch will extinguish. NOTE:
When parking on a hill, it is important to turn the front wheels toward the curb on a downhill grade and away from the curb on an uphill grade. Apply the park brake before placing the gear selector in PARK, otherwise the load on the transmission locking mechanism may make it difficult to move the gear selector out of PARK. The park brake should always be applied when-
ever the driver is not in the vehicle. WARNING!
Never use the PARK position as a substi-
tute for the parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement and possible injury or damage. When exiting the vehicle, always make sure the ignition is in the OFF mode, remove the key fob from the vehicle, and lock your vehicle.
(Continued) STARTING AND OPERATING 223 WARNING! (Continued) Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing chil-
dren 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 transmis-
sion gear selector. Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, (or in a location accessible to chil-
dren), and do not leave the ignition in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle. 5 Be sure the parking brake is fully disen-
gaged before driving; failure to do so can lead to brake failure and a collision. Always fully apply the parking brake when leaving your vehicle, or it may roll and cause damage or injury. Also be certain to leave the transmission in PARK. Failure to do so may allow the vehicle to roll and cause damage or injury.
(Continued) 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 224 224 STARTING AND OPERATING WARNING! (Continued) Driving the vehicle with the parking brake engaged, or repeated use of the parking brake to slow the vehicle may cause serious damage to the brake system. CAUTION!
If the Brake System Warning Light remains on with the parking brake released, a brake system malfunction is indicated. Have the brake system serviced by an authorized dealer immediately. If exceptional circumstances should make it necessary to engage the park brake while the vehicle is in motion, push on the electric park brake switch for as long as engagement is desired. The BRAKE warning lamp will illumi-
nate, and a continuous chime will sound. The rear stop lamps will also be illuminated auto-
matically while the vehicle remains in motion. To disengage the park brake while the vehicle is in motion, release the switch. If the vehicle is brought to a complete stop using the park brake, when the vehicle reaches approximately 3 mph (4.8 km/h), the park brake will remain engaged. In the unlikely event of a malfunction of the Electric Park Brake system, a yellow EPB fault lamp will illuminate. This may be accompanied by the BRAKE warning lamp flashing. In this case, urgent service of the electric park brake system is required. Do not rely on the park brake to hold the vehicle stationary. SafeHold can be temporarily bypassed by pushing the Electric Park Brake Switch while the driver door is open and brake pedal is pressed. Once manually bypassed, SafeHold will be enabled again once the vehicle reaches 12 mph (20 km/h) or the ignition is cycled to the OFF position and back to ON again. Auto Park Brake The Electric Park Brake can be programmed to be applied automatically whenever the vehicle is at a standstill and the automatic transmission is placed in PARK. Auto Park Brake is enabled and disabled by customer selection through the Customer Programmable Features section of the Uconnect Settings. SafeHold SafeHold is a safety feature of the Electric Park Brake System that will engage the park brake automatically if the vehicle is left unsecured. If the automatic transmission is not in PARK, the seat belt is unbuckled, the driver door is open, the vehicle is at a standstill, and there is no attempt to depress the brake pedal or acceler-
ator pedal, the park brake will automatically engage to prevent the vehicle from rolling. Brake Service Mode We recommend having your brakes serviced by an authorized dealer. You should only make repairs for which you have the knowledge and the right equipment. You should only enter Brake Service Mode during brake service. When servicing your rear brakes, it may be necessary for you or your technician to push the rear piston into the rear caliper bore. With the Electric Park Brake system, this can only be done after retracting the Electric Park Brake actuator. Fortunately, actuator retraction can be done easily by entering the Brake Service through the Uconnect Settings in your vehicle. This menu based system will guide you through the steps necessary to retract the EPB actuator in order to perform rear brake service. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 225 Brake Service Mode has requirements that must be met in order to be activated:
The vehicle must be at a standstill. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WARNING!
The park brake must be unapplied. Never use the PARK position as a substi-
The transmission must be in PARK or NEUTRAL. While in service mode, the Electric Park Brake fault lamp will flash continuously while the igni-
tion switch is ON. When brake service work is complete, the following steps must be followed to reset the parking brake system to normal operation:
Ensure the vehicle is at a standstill. Press the brake pedal with moderate force. Apply the Electric Park Brake Switch. WARNING!
You can be badly injured working on or around a motor vehicle. Do only that service work for which you have the knowledge and the right equipment. If you have any doubt about your ability to perform a service job, take your vehicle to a competent mechanic. tute for the parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully when exiting the vehicle to guard against vehicle movement and possible injury or damage. Your vehicle could move and injure you and others if it is not in PARK. Check by trying to move the transmission gear selector out of PARK with the brake pedal released. Make sure the transmission is in PARK before exiting the vehicle. The transmission may not engage PARK if the vehicle is moving. Always bring the vehicle to a complete stop before shifting to PARK, and verify that the transmission gear position indicator solidly indicates PARK (P) without blinking. Ensure that the vehicle is completely stopped, and the PARK position is properly indicated, before exiting the vehicle.

When exiting the vehicle, always make sure the ignition is in the OFF mode, remove the key fob from the vehicle, and lock the vehicle. Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to be in a vehicle unat-
tended 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 transmission gear selector. Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle (or in a location accessible to chil-
dren), and do not leave the ignition in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle. Damage to the transmission may occur if the following precautions are not observed:
Shift into or out of PARK or REVERSE only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. Do not shift between PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, or DRIVE when the engine is above idle speed. Before shifting into any gear, make sure your foot is firmly pressing the brake pedal. NOTE:
You must press and hold the brake pedal while shifting out of PARK. This vehicle is equipped with an Ignition Park Interlock which requires the transmission to be in PARK before the ignition can be turned to the OFF mode. This helps the driver avoid inadver-
tently leaving the vehicle without placing the transmission in PARK. This system also locks the transmission in PARK whenever the ignition is in the OFF mode. NOTE:
The transmission is NOT locked in PARK when the ignition is in the ACC mode (even though the engine will be off). Ensure that the transmission is in PARK, and the ignition is OFF (not in ACC mode) before exiting the vehicle. Brake/Transmission Shift Interlock System This vehicle is equipped with a Brake Transmis-
sion Shift Interlock system (BTSI) that holds the transmission gear selector in PARK unless the brakes are applied. To shift the transmission out of PARK, the engine must be running and the brake pedal must be pressed. The brake pedal must also be pressed to shift from NEUTRAL into DRIVE or REVERSE when the vehicle is stopped or moving at low speeds. The transmission is controlled using a rotary electronic gear selector located on the center console. The transmission gear selector has PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE, and LOW shift positions. Using the LOW position manually downshifts the transmission to a lower gear based on vehicle speed. The transmission gear range (PRNDL) is displayed both above the gear selector and in the instrument cluster. To select a gear range, simply rotate the gear selector. Ignition Park Interlock Nine-Speed Automatic Transmission 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 227 Push down on the gear selector and then rotate it, to access the L position. You must also press the brake pedal to shift the transmission out of PARK (or NEUTRAL, when stopped or moving at low speeds). To shift past multiple gear ranges at once (such as PARK to DRIVE), simply rotate the gear selector to the appropriate detent. Select the DRIVE range for normal driving. NOTE:
In the event of a mismatch between the gear selector position and the actual transmission gear (for example, driver selects PARK while driving), the position indicator will blink continu-
ously until the selector is returned to the proper position, or the requested shift can be completed. The electronically-controlled transmission adapts its shift schedule based on driver inputs, along with environmental and road conditions. The transmission electronics are self-calibrating; therefore, the first few shifts on a new vehicle may be somewhat abrupt. This is a normal condition, and precision shifts will develop within a few hundred miles
(kilometers). The nine-speed transmission has been devel-
oped to meet the needs of current and future FWD/AWD vehicles. Software and calibration is refined to optimize the customers driving expe-
rience and fuel economy. By design, some vehicle and driveline combinations utilize 9th gear only in very specific driving situations and conditions. Only shift from DRIVE to PARK or REVERSE when the accelerator pedal is released and the vehicle is stopped. Be sure to keep your foot on the brake pedal when shifting between these gears. Transmission Gear Selector STARTING AND OPERATING 227 Gear Ranges Do not depress the accelerator pedal when shifting from PARK or NEUTRAL into another gear range. NOTE:
After selecting any gear range, wait a moment to allow the selected gear to engage before accelerating. This is especially important when the engine is cold. PARK (P) This range supplements the parking brake by locking the transmission. The engine can be started in this range. Never attempt to use PARK while the vehicle is in motion. Apply the parking brake when exiting the vehicle in this range. When parking on a level surface, you may shift the transmission into PARK first, and then apply the parking brake. When parking on a hill, apply the parking brake before shifting the transmission to PARK. As an added precaution, turn the front wheels toward the curb on a downhill grade and away from the curb on an uphill grade. 5 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 228 228 STARTING AND OPERATING When exiting the vehicle, always:
Apply the parking brake. Shift the transmission into PARK. Turn the ignition OFF. Remove the key fob from the vehicle. WARNING!

dren), and do not leave the ignition in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle. CAUTION!
Before moving the transmission gear selector out of PARK, you must start the engine, and also press the brake pedal. Otherwise, damage to the gear selector could result.
(Continued) DO NOT race the engine when shifting from PARK or NEUTRAL into another gear range, as this can damage the drivetrain. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 229 The following indicators should be used to ensure that you have properly engaged the transmission into the PARK position:
Look at the transmission gear position display and verify that it indicates the PARK position (P), and is not blinking. With brake pedal released, verify that the gear selector will not move out of PARK. REVERSE (R) This range is for moving the vehicle backward. Shift into REVERSE only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. NEUTRAL (N) Use this range when the vehicle is standing for prolonged periods with the engine running. The engine may be started in this range. Apply the park brake and shift the transmission into PARK if you must exit the vehicle. WARNING!
Do not coast in NEUTRAL and never turn off the ignition to coast down a hill. These are unsafe practices that limit your response to changing traffic or road conditions. You might lose control of the vehicle and have a collision. CAUTION!
Towing the vehicle, coasting, or driving for any other reason with the transmission in NEUTRAL can cause severe transmission damage. Refer to Recreational Towing in Starting And Operating and Towing A Disabled Vehicle in In Case Of Emergency for further information. DRIVE (D) This range should be used for most city and highway driving. It provides the smoothest upshifts and downshifts, and the best fuel economy. The transmission automatically upshifts through all forward gears. The DRIVE position provides optimum driving characteris-
tics under all normal operating conditions. If the transmission temperature exceeds normal operating limits, the transmission controller may modify the transmission shift schedule, reduce engine torque, and/or expand the range of torque converter clutch engage-
ment. This is done to prevent transmission damage due to overheating. STARTING AND OPERATING 229 If the transmission becomes extremely hot, the Transmission Temperature Warning Light will illuminate, a warning message will appear in the instrument cluster, and the transmission may operate differently until the transmission cools down. During cold temperatures, transmission opera-
tion may be modified depending on engine and transmission temperature as well as vehicle speed. This feature improves warm up time of the engine and transmission to achieve maximum efficiency. Engagement of the torque converter clutch, and shifts into 8th or 9th gear, are inhibited until the transmission fluid is warm refer to the Note under Torque Converter Clutch in this section. Normal opera-
tion will resume once the transmission temperature has risen to a suitable level. LOW (L) Use this range for engine braking when descending very steep grades. In this range, the transmission will downshift for increased engine braking. To access the LOW position, push down on the gear selector and rotate it fully clockwise. 5 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 230 230 STARTING AND OPERATING Transmission Limp Home Mode Transmission function is monitored electronically for abnormal conditions. If a condition is detected that could result in transmission damage, Transmission Limp Home Mode is activated. In this mode, the transmission may operate only in a fixed gear, or may remain in NEUTRAL. The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) may be illuminated. Limp Home Mode may allow the vehicle to be driven to an authorized dealer for service without damaging the transmission. In the event of a momentary problem, the trans-
mission can be reset to regain all forward gears by performing the following steps:
1. Stop the vehicle. 2. Shift the transmission into PARK, if possible. If not, shift the transmission to NEUTRAL. 3. Push and hold the ignition switch until the engine turns OFF. 4. Wait approximately 30 seconds. 5. Restart the engine. 6. Shift into the desired gear range. If the problem is no longer detected, the trans-
mission will return to normal operation. NOTE:
Even if the transmission can be reset, we recommend that you visit an authorized dealer at your earliest possible convenience. An autho-
rized dealer has diagnostic equipment to assess the condition of your transmission. If the transmission cannot be reset, authorized dealer service is required. Torque Converter Clutch A feature designed to improve fuel economy has been included in the automatic transmis-
sion on your vehicle. A clutch within the torque converter engages automatically at calibrated speeds. This may result in a slightly different feeling or response during normal operation in the upper gears. When the vehicle speed drops or during some accelerations, the clutch auto-
matically disengages. NOTE:
The torque converter clutch will not engage until the engine and/or transmission is warm
(usually after 1 to 3 miles [2 to 5 km] of driving). Because the engine speed is higher when the torque converter clutch is not engaged, it may seem as if the transmission is not shifting prop-
erly when the vehicle is cold. This is normal. The torque converter clutch will function normally once the powertrain is sufficiently warm. ACTIVE NOISE CANCELLATION Your vehicle is equipped with an Active Noise Cancellation System. This system is designed to address exhaust and engine noise. The system relies on four microphones embedded in the headliner, which monitor exhaust and engine noise, and assists an onboard frequency gener-
ator, which creates counteracting sound waves in the audio systems speakers. This helps keep the vehicle quiet at idle and during drive. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 231 POWER STEERING The electric power steering system will give you good vehicle response and increased ease of maneuverability in tight spaces. The system will vary its assist to provide light efforts while parking and good feel while driving. If the elec-
tric steering system experiences a fault that reduces assist or prevents the vehicle from providing assist, you will still have the ability to steer the vehicle manually. WARNING!
Continued operation with reduced assist could pose a safety risk to yourself and others. Service should be obtained as soon as possible. NOTE:
If the Steering icon is displayed and the POWER STEERING SYSTEM OVER TEMP message is displayed on the instrument cluster screen, they indicate that extreme steering maneuvers may have occurred which caused an over temperature condition in the power steering system. Once driving conditions are safe, pull over and let the vehicle idle for a few moments until the icon and message turn off. Refer to Instrument Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for further information. If the SERVICE POWER STEERING"
OR "POWER STEERING ASSIST OFF -
SERVICE SYSTEM message and a steering wheel icon are displayed on the instrument cluster screen, it indicates that the vehicle needs to be taken to the dealer for service. It is likely the vehicle has lost power steering assistance. Refer to Warning Lights And Messages in Getting To Know Your Instru-
ment Panel for further information. Even if the power steering assistance is no longer operational, it is still possible to steer the vehicle. Under these conditions there will be a substantial increase in steering effort, especially at low speeds and during parking maneuvers. The power steering system is fully electric; it requires no power steering fluid. If the condition persists, see an authorized dealer for service. STARTING AND OPERATING 231 STOP/START SYSTEM IF EQUIPPED The Stop/Start function is developed to reduce fuel consumption. The system will stop the engine automatically during a vehicle stop if the required conditions are met. Releasing the brake pedal, pressing the accelerator pedal or shifting out of DRIVE (D) will automatically re-start the engine. This vehicle has been upgraded with a heavy duty starter, enhanced battery, and other upgraded engine parts to handle the additional engine starts. 5 Auto Stop/Start The Stop/Start feature is enabled after every normal customer engine start. At that time, the system will go into STOP/START READY and if all other conditions are met, can go into a STOP/START AUTOSTOP ACTIVE. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 232 be viewed in the instrument cluster display Stop/
Start screen. In the following situations the engine will not stop:
If Stop/Start is manually disabled by the Stop/Start OFF button. Hood is open. pressure. The transmission is not in a forward gear. 232 STARTING AND OPERATING To Activate Auto STOP/START, The Following Must Occur:

Refer to Instrument Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for further information. Drivers seat belt is not buckled. Drivers door is not closed. The vehicle must be completely stopped. Battery temperature is too warm or cold. The shifter must be in a forward gear and the brake pedal depressed. The engine will shut down, the tachometer will move to the zero position and the Stop/Start telltale will illuminate indicating you are in Autostop. Customer settings will be maintained throughout the Auto Stop/Start process. Possible Reasons The Engine Does Not Autostop Prior to engine shut down, the system will check many safety and comfort conditions for Stop/Start and ensure they are fulfilled. Detailed information about the operation of the Stop/Start system may Battery charge is low. During this time a message will display "Stop/Start Not Ready Battery Charging". The vehicle is on a steep grade. Cabin heating or cooling is in process and an acceptable cabin temperature has not been achieved. HVAC is set to full defrost mode at a high blower speed. HVAC set to MAX A/C. Engine has not reached normal operating temperature. Brake pedal is not pressed with sufficient Other Factors Which Can Inhibit Autostop Include:
Accelerator pedal input. Engine temp too high. 5 mph threshold not achieved from previous AUTOSTOP. Steering angle beyond threshold. ACC is on and speed is set. It may be possible for the vehicle to be driven several times without the Stop/Start system going into a Stop/Start READY state under more extreme conditions of the items listed above. To Start The Engine While In Auto Stop/Start To Manually Turn Off The Stop/Start System 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 233 While in a forward gear, the engine will start when the brake pedal is released or the throttle pedal is depressed. The transmission will auto-
matically re-engage upon engine restart. Conditions That Will Cause The Engine To Start Automatically While In Auto Stop/Start:
The transmission selector is moved out of DRIVE. To maintain cabin temperature comfort. HVAC is set to full defrost mode. HVAC system temperature or fan speed is manually adjusted. Battery voltage drops too low. During this time a message will display "Stop/Start Not Ready Battery Charging". Low brake vacuum (e.g. after several brake pedal applications). Stop/Start OFF switch is pushed. A Stop/Start system error occurs. STARTING AND OPERATING 233 Automatic Shutdown This vehicle is equipped with an automatic shut-
down feature. If the vehicle is left in READY mode (vehicle running) with the gear selector in PARK for one hour after the driver exits, this feature will automatically turn the vehicle off. Notifications have been added into this feature to raise awareness of the timed event:
In the interior of the vehicle, the instrument cluster will display Ready To Drive, and will be accompanied by three audible chimes while exiting. These interior warnings will occur regardless of whether the key fob remains in the vehicle or is removed. For the exterior of the vehicle, the horn will sound three times if the fob is removed from the vehicle and the vehicle is in the READY mode. Please consider this feature when intentionally running the vehicle for extended periods of time over one hour. To restart the vehicle, follow the normal vehicle starting process. NOTE:
If the vehicle is left in the ACC or RUN (engine not running) position and the transmission is in PARK, the system will automatically time out 5 Stop/Start OFF Button 1. Push the Stop/Start OFF switch (located on the instrument panel). The light on the switch will illuminate. 2. The STOP/START OFF message will appear in the instrument cluster display. Refer to Instrument Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for further information. 3.

To Manually Turn On The Stop/Start System After turning off the Stop/Start system, push the Stop/Start OFF switch again (located on the instrument panel). The light on the switch will turn off. System Malfunction If there is a malfunction in the Stop/Start system, the system will not shut down the engine. A SERVICE STOP/START SYSTEM message will appear in the instrument cluster display and the Stop/Start telltale will remain yellow. Refer to Instrument Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for further information. If the SERVICE STOP/START SYSTEM message appears in the instrument cluster display, have the system checked by your authorized dealer. SPEED CONTROL IF EQUIPPED When engaged, the Speed Control takes over accelerator operations at speeds greater than 25 mph (40 km/h). The Speed Control buttons are located on the right side of the steering wheel. Speed Control Buttons 1 On/Off 2 SET (+)/Accel 3 RES/Resume 4 SET (-)/Decel 5 CANC/Cancel NOTE:
In order to ensure proper operation, the Speed Control System has been designed to shut down if multiple Speed Control functions are operated at the same time. If this occurs, the Speed Control System can be reactivated by pushing the Speed Control on/off button and resetting the desired vehicle set speed. WARNING!
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 and have an accident. Do not use Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 235 To Activate Push the on/off button to activate the Speed Control. The cruise indicator light in the instru-
ment cluster display will illuminate. To turn the system off, push the on/off button a second time. The cruise indicator light will turn off. The system should be turned off when not in use. WARNING!
Leaving the 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 an accident. Always leave the system off when you are not using it. To Set A Desired Speed Turn the Speed Control on. NOTE:
The vehicle should be traveling at a steady speed and on level ground before pushing the SET (+) or SET (-) button. When the vehicle has reached the desired speed, push the SET (+) or SET (-) button and release. Release the accelerator and the vehicle will operate at the selected speed. Metric Speed (km/h) Pushing the SET (+) button once will result in a 1 km/h increase in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the button results in an increase of 1 km/h. STARTING AND OPERATING 235 To Vary The Speed Setting To Increase Speed When the Speed Control is set, you can increase speed by pushing the SET (+) button. The drivers preferred units can be selected through the instrument panel settings. Refer to Instrument Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for more information. The speed increment shown is dependent on the chosen speed unit of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h):
U.S. Speed (mph) Pushing the SET (+) button once will result in a 1 mph increase in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the button results in an increase of 1 mph. If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to increase until the button is released, then the new set speed will be established. 5 If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to increase until the button is released, then the new set speed will be established. To Decrease Speed When the Speed Control is set, you can decrease speed by pushing the SET (-) button. The drivers preferred units can be selected through the instrument panel settings. Refer to Instrument Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for more information. The speed increment shown is dependent on the chosen speed unit of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h):
U.S. Speed (mph) Pushing the SET (-) button once will result in a 1 mph decrease in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the button results in a decrease of 1 mph. If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to decrease until the button is released, then the new set speed will be established. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 236 236 STARTING AND OPERATING Metric Speed (km/h) Pushing the SET (-) button once will result in a 1 km/h decrease in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the button results in a decrease of 1 km/h. If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to decrease until the button is released, then the new set speed will be established. To Accelerate For Passing Press the accelerator as you would normally. When the pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the set speed. To Resume Speed To resume a previously set speed, push the RES button and release. Resume can be used at any speed above 20 mph (32 km/h). To Deactivate A soft tap on the brake pedal, pushing the CANC
(cancel) button, or normal brake pressure while slowing the vehicle will deactivate the Speed Control without erasing the set speed from memory. Pushing the on/off button or placing the ignition in the OFF position erases the set speed from memory. ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) IF EQUIPPED Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) increases the driving convenience provided by cruise control while traveling on highways and major road-
ways. However, it is not a safety system and not designed to prevent collisions. Speed Control function performs differently. Please refer to the proper section within this chapter. ACC will allow you to keep cruise control engaged in light to moderate traffic conditions without the constant need to reset your cruise control. ACC utilizes a radar sensor and a forward facing camera designed to detect a vehicle directly ahead of you. NOTE:
If the sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead of you, ACC will maintain a fixed set speed. If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC will apply limited braking or accelerate
(not to exceed the original set speed) auto-
matically to maintain a preset following distance, while matching the speed of the vehicle ahead. The Cruise Control system has two control modes:
Adaptive Cruise Control mode for main-
taining an appropriate distance between vehicles. Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control mode for cruising at a constant preset speed. For additional information, refer to Normal
(Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode in this section. NOTE:
Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control will not react to preceding vehicles. Always be aware of the mode selected. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 237 You can change the mode by using the Cruise Control buttons. The two control modes func-
tion differently. Always confirm which mode is selected. WARNING!
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a conve-
nience system. It is not a substitute for active driving involvement. It is always the drivers responsibility to be attentive of road, traffic, and weather conditions, vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle ahead; and, most importantly, brake operation to ensure safe operation of the vehicle under all road condi-
tions. Your complete attention is always required while driving to maintain safe control of your vehicle. Failure to follow these warn-
ings can result in a collision and death or serious personal injury.
(Continued) STARTING AND OPERATING 237 WARNING! (Continued) WARNING! (Continued) The ACC system:
You should switch off the ACC system:

Leaving the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) 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 system off when you are not using it. To Set A Desired ACC Speed To Cancel When the vehicle reaches the speed desired, push the SET (+) button or the SET (-) button and release. The instrument cluster display will show the set speed. If the system is set when the vehicle speed is below 20 mph (32 km/h), the set speed shall be defaulted to 20 mph (32 km/h). If the The following conditions cancel the system:
The brake pedal is applied. The CANC (cancel) button is pushed. An Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) event occurs. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 240 240 STARTING AND OPERATING NOTE:
To Vary The Speed Setting If your vehicle stays at standstill for longer than two seconds, then the driver will either have to push the RES (resume) button, or apply the accelerator pedal to reengage the ACC to the existing set speed. ACC cannot be resumed if there is a stationary vehicle in-front of your vehicle in close proximity. WARNING!
The Resume function should only be used if traffic and road conditions permit. Resuming a set speed that is too high or too low for prevailing traffic and road conditions could cause the vehicle to accelerate or decelerate too sharply for safe operation. Failure to follow these warnings can result in a collision and death or serious personal injury. To Increase Speed While ACC is set, you can increase the set speed by pushing the SET (+) button. The driver's preferred units can be selected through the instrument cluster. Refer to Instru-
ment Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for more information. The speed increment shown is dependent on the chosen speed unit of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h):
U.S. Speed (mph) Pushing the SET (+) button once will result in a 1 mph increase in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the button results in an increase of 1 mph. If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to increase in 5 mph increments until the button is released. The increase in set speed is reflected in the instrument cluster display. Metric Speed (km/h) Pushing the SET (+) button once will result in a 1 km/h increase in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the button results in an increase of 1 km/h. If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to increase in 10 km/h increments until the button is released. The increase in set speed is reflected in the instrument cluster display. To Decrease Speed While ACC is set, the set speed can be decreased by pushing the SET (-) button. The driver's preferred units can be selected through the instrument cluster. Refer to Instru-
ment Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for more information. The speed decrement shown is dependent on the chosen speed unit of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h):
U.S. Speed (mph) Pushing the SET (-) button once will result in a 1 mph decrease in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the button results in a decrease of 1 mph. If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to decrease in 5 mph decrements until the button is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected in the instrument cluster display. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 241 Metric Speed (km/h) Pushing the SET (-) button once will result in a 1 km/h decrease in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the button results in a decrease of 1 km/h. If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to decrease in 10 km/h decrements until the button is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected in the instrument cluster display. NOTE:
When you override and push the SET (+) button or SET (-) buttons, the new set speed will be the current speed of the vehicle. When you use the SET (-) button to decel-
erate, if the powertrain braking power does not slow the vehicle sufficiently to reach the set speed, the brake system will automati-
cally slow the vehicle. The ACC system decelerates the vehicle to a full stop when following a target vehicle. If an ACC host vehicle follows a target vehicle to a standstill, after two seconds the driver will either have to push the RES (resume) button, or apply the accelerator pedal to reengage the ACC to the existing set speed. The ACC system maintains set speed when driving up hill and down hill. However, a slight speed change on moderate hills is normal. In addition, downshifting may occur while climbing uphill or descending downhill. This is normal operation and necessary to main-
tain set speed. When driving up hill and down hill, the ACC system will cancel if the braking temperature exceeds normal range (over-
heated). Setting The Following Distance In ACC The specified following distance for ACC can be set by varying the distance setting between four bars (longest), three bars (long), two bars
(medium) and one bar (short). Using this distance setting and the vehicle speed, ACC calculates and sets the distance to the vehicle ahead. This distance setting displays in the instrument cluster display. STARTING AND OPERATING 241 Distance Setting 4 Bars (Longest) 5 Distance Setting 3 Bars (Long) 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 242 242 STARTING AND OPERATING Distance Setting 2 Bars (Medium) NOTE:
The brake lights will illuminate whenever the ACC system applies the brakes. A Proximity Warning will alert the driver if ACC predicts that its maximum braking level is not sufficient to maintain the set distance. If this occurs, a visual alert BRAKE will flash in the instrument cluster display and a chime will sound while ACC continues to apply its maximum braking capacity. To decrease the distance setting, push the Distance Setting Decrease button and release. Each time the button is pushed, the distance setting decreases by one bar (shorter). If there is no vehicle ahead, the vehicle will maintain the set speed. If a slower moving vehicle is detected in the same lane, the instru-
ment cluster displays the Sensed Vehicle Indi-
cator icon, and the system adjusts vehicle speed automatically to maintain the distance setting, regardless of the set speed. The vehicle will then maintain the set distance until:
The vehicle ahead accelerates to a speed above the set speed. The vehicle ahead moves out of your lane or view of the sensor. The distance setting is changed. Distance Setting 1 Bar (Short) The system disengages. (Refer to the infor-
To increase the distance setting, push the Distance Setting Increase button and release. Each time the button is pushed, the distance setting increases by one bar (longer). mation on ACC Activation). The maximum braking applied by ACC is limited;
however, the driver can always apply the brakes manually, if necessary. Brake Alert NOTE:
The BRAKE! Screen in the instrument cluster display is a warning for the driver to take action and does not necessarily mean that the Forward Collision Warning system is applying the brakes autonomously. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 243 Overtake Aid When driving with ACC engaged and following a vehicle, the system will provide an additional acceleration up to the ACC set speed to assist in passing the vehicle. This additional acceleration is triggered when the driver utilizes the left turn signal and will only be active when passing on the left hand side. ACC Operation At Stop If the ACC system brings your vehicle to a stand-
still while following a target vehicle, and the target vehicle starts moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, your vehicle will resume motion without the need for any driver action. If the target vehicle does not start moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a stand-
still, the driver will either have to push the RES
(resume) button, or apply the accelerator pedal to reengage the ACC. The vehicle will accelerate to the existing set speed. NOTE:
After the ACC system holds your vehicle at a standstill for approximately three consecutive minutes, the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system will be cancelled. While the ACC system is holding your vehicle at a standstill, if the driver seatbelt is unbuckled or the driver door is opened, the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system will be cancelled. WARNING!
When the ACC system is resumed, the driver must ensure that there are no pedestrians, vehicles or objects in the path of the vehicle. Failure to follow these warnings can result in a collision and death or serious personal injury. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Menu The instrument cluster displays the current ACC system settings. The instrument cluster display is located in the center of the instrument cluster. The information it displays depends on ACC system status. Push the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) on/off button (located on the steering wheel) until one of the following displays in the instrument cluster display:
STARTING AND OPERATING 243 Adaptive Cruise Control Off When ACC is deactivated, the display will read Adaptive Cruise Control Off. Adaptive Cruise Control Ready When ACC is activated but the vehicle speed setting has not been selected, the display will read Adaptive Cruise Control Ready. Push the SET (+) or the SET (-) button (located on the steering wheel) and the following will display in the instrument cluster display:
ACC SET When ACC is set, the set speed will display in the instrument cluster. The ACC screen may display once again if any ACC activity occurs, which may include any of the following:
System Cancel 5 Driver Override System Off ACC Proximity Warning ACC Unavailable Warning The instrument cluster display will return to the last display selected after five seconds of no ACC display activity 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 244 244 STARTING AND OPERATING Display Warnings And Maintenance Wipe Front Radar Sensor In Front Of Vehicle Warning The ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor warning will display and also a chime will indicate when conditions temporarily limit system performance. This most often occurs at times of poor visibility, such as in snow or heavy rain. The ACC system may also become temporarily blinded due to obstructions, such as mud, dirt or ice. In these cases, the instrument cluster display will show ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor and the system will deactivate. The ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor message can sometimes be displayed while driving in highly reflective areas (i.e. tunnels with reflective tiles, or ice and snow). The ACC system will recover after the vehicle has left these areas. Under rare conditions, when the radar is not tracking any vehicles or objects in its path this warning may temporarily occur. NOTE:
If the ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor warning is active Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control is still available. For additional information refer to Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode in this section. If weather conditions are not a factor, the driver should examine the sensor. It may require cleaning or removal of an obstruction. The sensor is located in the center of the vehicle behind the lower grille. To keep the ACC System operating properly, it is important to note the following maintenance items:
Always keep the sensor clean. Carefully wipe the sensor lens with a soft cloth. Be cautious not to damage the sensor lens. Do not remove any screws from the sensor. Doing so could cause an ACC system malfunction or failure and require a sensor realignment. If the sensor or front end of the vehicle is damaged due to a collision, see an autho-
rized dealer for service. Do not attach or install any accessories near the sensor, including transparent material or aftermarket grilles. Doing so could cause an ACC system failure or malfunction. When the condition that deactivated the system is no longer present, the system will return to the Adaptive Cruise Control Off state and will resume function by simply reactivating it. NOTE:
If the ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor message occurs frequently (e.g. more than once on every trip) without any snow, rain, mud, or other obstruction, have the radar sensor realigned at an authorized dealer. Clean Front Windshield Warning The ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front Windshield warning will display and also a chime will indicate when conditions tempo-
rarily limit system performance. This most often occurs at times of poor visibility, such as in snow or heavy rain and fog. The ACC system may also become temporarily blinded due to obstructions, such as mud, dirt, or ice on wind-
shield, driving directly into the sun and fog on the inside of glass. In these cases, the instru-
ment cluster display will show ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front Windshield and the system will have degraded perfor-
mance. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 245 The ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front Windshield message can sometimes be displayed while driving in adverse weather conditions. The ACC/FCW system will recover after the vehicle has left these areas. Under rare conditions, when the camera is not tracking any vehicles or objects in its path this warning may temporarily occur. If weather conditions are not a factor, the driver should examine the windshield and the camera located on the back side of the inside rear view mirror. They may require cleaning or removal of an obstruction. When the condition that created limited func-
tionality is no longer present, the system will return to full functionality. NOTE:
If the ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front Windshield message occurs frequently
(e.g. more than once on every trip) without any snow, rain, mud, or other obstruction, have the windshield and forward facing camera inspected at an authorized dealer. Service ACC/FCW Warning If the system turns off, and the instrument cluster displays ACC/FCW Unavailable Service Required or Cruise/FCW Unavailable Service Required, there may be an internal system fault or a temporary malfunction that limits ACC functionality. Although the vehicle is still driv-
able under normal conditions, ACC will be temporarily unavailable. If this occurs, try acti-
vating ACC again later, following an ignition cycle. If the problem persists, see an authorized dealer. Precautions While Driving With ACC In certain driving situations, ACC may have detection issues. In these cases, ACC may brake late or unexpectedly. The driver needs to stay alert and may need to intervene. Towing A Trailer Towing a trailer is not advised when using ACC. STARTING AND OPERATING 245 Offset Driving ACC may not detect a vehicle in the same lane that is offset from your direct line of travel, or a vehicle merging in from a side lane. There may not be sufficient distance to the vehicle ahead. The offset vehicle may move in and out of the line of travel, which can cause your vehicle to brake or accelerate unexpectedly. 5 Offset Driving Condition Example 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 246 246 STARTING AND OPERATING Turns And Bends When driving on a curve with ACC engaged, the system may decrease the vehicle speed and acceleration for stability reasons, with no target vehicle detected. Once the vehicle is out of the curve the system will resume your original Set Speed. This is a part of normal ACC system func-
tionality. NOTE:
On tight turns ACC performance may be limited. Using ACC On Hills When driving on hills, ACC may not detect a vehicle in your lane. Depending on the speed, vehicle load, traffic conditions, and the steep-
ness of the hills, ACC performance may be limited. Lane Changing ACC may not detect a vehicle until it is completely in the lane in which you are trav-
eling. In the illustration shown, ACC has not yet detected the vehicle changing lanes and it may not detect the vehicle until it's too late for the ACC system to take action. ACC may not detect a vehicle until it is completely in the lane. There may not be sufficient distance to the lane-changing vehicle. Always be attentive and ready to apply the brakes if necessary. ACC Hill Example Turn Or Bend Example Lane Changing Example 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 247 Narrow Vehicles Some narrow vehicles traveling near the outer edges of the lane or edging into the lane are not detected until they have moved fully into the lane. There may not be sufficient distance to the vehicle ahead. Stationary Objects And Vehicles ACC does not react to stationary objects and stationary vehicles. For example, ACC will not react in situations where the vehicle you are following exits your lane and the vehicle ahead is stopped in your lane. Always be attentive and ready to apply the brakes if necessary.

Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode In addition to Adaptive Cruise Control mode, a Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control mode is available for cruising at fixed speeds. The Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control mode is designed to maintain a set cruising speed without requiring the driver to operate the accel-
erator. Cruise Control can only be operated if the vehicle speed is above 20 mph (32 km/h). To change between the different control modes, push the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) on/off button which turns the ACC and the Normal
(Fixed Speed) Cruise Control off. Pushing the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control on/off button will result in turning on (changing to) the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control mode. WARNING!
In the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control mode, the system will not react to vehicles ahead. In addition, the proximity warning does not activate and no alarm will sound even if you are too close to the vehicle ahead since neither the presence of the vehicle ahead nor the vehicle-to-vehicle distance is detected. Be sure to maintain a safe distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead. Always be aware which mode is selected. To Set A Desired Speed Turn the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control on. When the vehicle has reached the desired speed, push the SET (+) or SET (-) button and release. Release the accelerator and the vehicle will operate at the selected speed. Once a speed has been set a message CRUISE CONTROL SET TO MPH (km/h) will appear indicating what speed was set. This light will turn on when the system is turned on via the on/off control. It turns green when the cruise control is set. To Vary The Speed Setting To Increase Speed When the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control is set, you can increase speed by pushing the SET (+) button. The drivers preferred units can be selected through the instrument cluster. Refer to Instru-
ment Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for more information. The speed increment shown is dependent on the speed of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h) units:
U.S. Speed (mph) Pushing the SET (+) button once will result in a 1 mph increase in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the button results in an increase of 1 mph. If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to increase in 5 mph increments until the button is released. The increase in set speed is reflected in the instrument cluster display. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 249 Metric Speed (km/h) Pushing the SET (+) button once will result in a 1 km/h increase in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the button results in an increase of 1 km/h. If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to decrease in 5 mph decrements until the button is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected in the instrument cluster display. If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to increase in 10 km/h increments until the button is released. The increase in set speed is reflected in the instrument cluster display. Metric Speed (km/h) Pushing the SET (-) button once will result in a 1 km/h decrease in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the button results in a decrease of 1 km/h. To Decrease Speed When the Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control is set, you can decrease speed by pushing the SET (-) button. The drivers preferred units can be selected through the instrument cluster. Refer to Instru-
ment Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for more information. The speed decrement shown is dependent on the speed of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h) units:
U.S. Speed (mph) Pushing the SET (-) button once will result in a 1 mph decrease in set speed. Each subse-
quent tap of the button results in a decrease of 1 mph. If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to decrease in 10 km/h decrements until the button is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected in the instrument cluster display. To Cancel The following conditions will cancel the Normal

The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) on/off button is pushed. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 250 250 STARTING AND OPERATING PARKSENSE REAR PARK ASSIST IF EQUIPPED The ParkSense Rear Park Assist system provides visual and audible indications of the distance between the rear fascia and a detected obstacle when backing up (e.g. during a parking maneuver). If your vehicle is equipped with an Automatic Transmission, the vehicle brakes may be automatically applied and released when performing a reverse parking maneuver if the system detects a possible colli-
sion with an obstacle. NOTE:
The driver can override the automatic braking function by pressing the gas pedal, turning ParkSense off via ParkSense switch, or changing the gear while the automatic brakes are being applied. Automatic brakes will not be available if ESC is not available. Automatic brakes will not be available if there is a faulted condition detected with the Park-
Sense Park Assist system or the Braking System Module. The automatic braking function may not provide enough vehicle deceleration to avoid colliding with a detected obstacle depending on vehicle speed, road conditions, and brake capability. The automatic braking function may not be applied fast enough for moving obstacles that approach the rear of the vehicle from the left and/or right sides. The automatic braking function can be enabled/disabled from the Customer-Programmable Features section of the Uconnect System. ParkSense will retain its last known configu-
ration state for the automatic braking func-
tion through ignition cycles. The automatic braking function is intended to assist the driver in avoiding possible collisions with detected obstacles when backing up in REVERSE gear. NOTE:
The driver is always responsible for controlling the vehicle. The system is provided to assist the driver and not to substitute the driver. The driver must stay in full control of the vehicle's acceleration and braking and is responsible for the vehicle's movements. Refer to ParkSense System Usage Precau-
tions for limitations of this system and recom-
mendations. ParkSense will retain the last system state
(enabled or disabled) from the last ignition cycle when the ignition is changed to the ON/RUN position. ParkSense can be active only when the gear selector is in REVERSE. If ParkSense is enabled at this gear selector position, the system will remain active until the vehicle speed is increased to approximately 7 mph (11 km/h) or above. When in REVERSE and above the system's operating speed, a warning will appear within the instrument cluster display indicating the vehicle speed is too fast. The system will become active again if the vehicle speed is decreased to speeds less than approximately 6 mph (9 km/h). 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 251 ParkSense Sensors ParkSense Visual Alert The four ParkSense sensors, located in the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area behind the vehicle that is within the sensors field of view. The sensors can detect obstacles from approxi-
mately 12 inches (30 cm) up to 79 inches (200 cm) from the rear fascia/bumper in the hori-
zontal direction, depending on the location, type and orientation of the obstacle. The ParkSense Warning screen will only be displayed if Sound and Display is selected from the Customer - Programmable Features section of the Uconnect System. Refer to "Uconnect Settings in Multimedia for further information. The ParkSense Warning screen is located within the instrument cluster display. It provides visual warnings to indicate the distance between the rear fascia/bumper and the detected obstacle. Refer to Instrument Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for further information. ParkSense Display When the vehicle is in REVERSE and an obstacle has been detected, the warning display will turn on indicating the system status, and remain on until the vehicle is moved out of REVERSE. The system will indicate a detected obstacle by showing a single arc in one or more regions based on the obstacles distance and location relative to the vehicle. Rear Sensor Locations STARTING AND OPERATING 251 If an obstacle is detected in the center rear region, the display will show a single solid arc in the center rear region and will produce a one-half second tone. As the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the display will show the single arc moving closer to the vehicle and the sound tone will change from slow, to fast, to continuous. If an obstacle is detected in the left and/or right rear region, the display will show a single flashing arc in the left and/or right rear region and will produce a fast sound tone. As the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the display will show the single arc moving closer to the vehicle and the tone will change from fast to continuous. 5 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 252 252 STARTING AND OPERATING Single 1/2 Second Tone/Solid Arc Slow Tone/Solid Arc Fast Tone/Flashing Arc Slow Tone/Solid Arc Fast Tone/Flashing Arc Continuous Tone/Flashing Arc 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 253 STARTING AND OPERATING 253 The vehicle is close to the obstacle when the warning display shows one flashing arc and sounds a continuous tone.

When the ParkSense switch is pushed to disable the system, the instrument cluster will display the PARKSENSE OFF message for approximately five seconds. Refer to Instrument Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for further information. When the gear selector is moved to REVERSE and the system is disabled, the instrument cluster display will show the PARK-
SENSE OFF message for as long as the vehicle is in REVERSE. The ParkSense switch LED will be on when Park-
Sense is disabled or requires service. The Park-
Sense switch LED will be off when the system is enabled. If the ParkSense switch is pushed, and requires service, the ParkSense switch LED will blink momentarily, and then the LED will be on. NOTE:
When KeySense feature is present, the ParkSense System will reject customer input to turn the system off via the hard switch. The instrument cluster display will show "KeySense in Use Selected Feature Cannot be Disabled" message. Service The ParkSense Rear Park Assist System During vehicle start up, when the ParkSense Rear Park Assist System has detected a faulted condition, the instrument cluster will actuate a single chime, once per ignition cycle, and it will display the PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE REAR SENSORS or the PARKSENSE UNAVAIL-
ABLE SERVICE REQUIRED message. Refer to Instrument Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel for further infor-
mation. When the gear selector is moved to REVERSE and the system has detected a faulted condition, the instrument cluster display will show the "PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE REAR SENSORS" or "PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE REQUIRED" message for five seconds while the vehicle is in REVERSE. Under this condition, ParkSense will not operate and PARKSENSE OFF message will be displayed. If PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE REAR SENSORS appears in the instrument cluster display, make sure the outer surface and the underside of the rear fascia/bumper is clean and clear of snow, ice, mud, dirt, or other obstruction and then cycle the ignition. If the message continues to appear, see an autho-
rized dealer. If PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE REQUIRED appears in the instrument cluster display, see an authorized dealer. Cleaning The ParkSense System Clean the ParkSense sensors with water, car wash soap, and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or hard cloths. Do not scratch or poke the sensors. Otherwise, you could damage the sensors. ParkSense System Usage Precautions NOTE:
Ensure that the rear bumper is free of snow, ice, mud, dirt, and debris to keep the Park-
Sense system operating properly. Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations could affect the performance of ParkSense. When you turn ParkSense off, the instrument cluster will display PARKSENSE OFF. Furthermore, once you turn ParkSense off, it remains off until you turn it on again, even if you cycle the ignition. When you move the gear selector to the REVERSE position and ParkSense is turned off, the instrument cluster display will show PARKSENSE OFF message for as long as the vehicle is in REVERSE. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 255 WARNING!
CAUTION!
Drivers must be careful when backing up ParkSense is only a parking aid and it is STARTING AND OPERATING 255 unable to recognize every obstacle, including small obstacles. Parking curbs might be temporarily detected or not detected at all. Obstacles located above or below the sensors will not be detected when they are in close proximity. The vehicle must be driven slowly when using ParkSense in order to be able to stop in time when an obstacle is detected. It is recommended that the driver looks over his/her shoulder when using ParkSense. 5 ParkSense, when on, will reduce the volume of the radio when it is sounding a tone. Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly, taking care not to scratch or damage them. The sensors must not be covered with ice, snow, slush, mud, dirt, or debris. Failure to do so can result in the system not working prop-
erly. The ParkSense system might not detect an obstacle behind the fascia/bumper, or it could provide a false indication that an obstacle is behind the fascia/bumper. ParkSense should be disabled when the lift-
gate is in the open position. Use the ParkSense switch to turn the Park-
Sense system off if objects such as bicycle carriers, trailer hitches, etc. are placed within 12 inches (30 cm) from the rear fascia/
bumper. Failure to do so can result in the system misinterpreting a close object as a sensor problem, causing the PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE REQUIRED message to be displayed in the instrument cluster display. even when using ParkSense. Always check carefully behind your vehicle, look behind you, and be sure to check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots before backing up. You are responsible for safety and must continue to pay attention to your surroundings. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death. Before using ParkSense, it is strongly recommended that the ball mount and hitch ball assembly is disconnected from the vehicle when the vehicle is not used for towing. Failure to do so can result in injury or damage to vehicles or obstacles because the hitch ball will be much closer to the obstacle than the rear fascia when the loudspeaker sounds the continuous tone. Also, the sensors could detect the ball mount and hitch ball assembly, depending on its size and shape, giving a false indica-
tion that an obstacle is behind the vehicle. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 256 256 STARTING AND OPERATING PARKSENSE FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST IF EQUIPPED The ParkSense Park Assist system provides visual and audible indications of the distance between the rear and/or front fascia and a detected obstacle when backing up or moving forward (e.g. during a parking maneuver). If your vehicle is equipped with an Automatic Trans-
mission, the vehicle brakes may be automati-
cally applied and released when performing a reverse parking maneuver if the system detects a possible collision with an obstacle. NOTE:
The driver can override the automatic braking function by pressing the gas pedal, turning ParkSense off via ParkSense switch, or changing the gear while the automatic brakes are being applied.

The sensors must not be covered with ice, snow, slush, mud, dirt or debris. Failure to do so can result in the system not working prop-
erly. The ParkSense system might not detect an obstacle behind or in front of the appro-
priate fascia/bumper, or it could provide a false indication that an obstacle is behind or in front of the appropriate fascia/bumper. Use the ParkSense switch to turn the Park-
Sense system off if objects such as bicycle carriers, trailer hitches, etc. are placed within 12 inches (30 cm) from the rear fascia/
bumper. Failure to do so can result in the system misinterpreting a close object as a sensor problem, causing the PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE REQUIRED message to be displayed in the instrument cluster. ParkSense should be disabled when the lift-
gate is in the open position. There may be a delay in the object detection rate if the object is moving. This may cause the automatic braking application to be delayed. STARTING AND OPERATING 263 WARNING!

tion that an obstacle is behind the vehicle. 5 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 264 264 STARTING AND OPERATING CAUTION!
ParkSense is only a parking aid and it is unable to recognize every obstacle, including small obstacles. Parking curbs might be temporarily detected or not detected at all. Obstacles located above or below the sensors will not be detected when they are in close proximity. The vehicle must be driven slowly when using ParkSense in order to be able to stop in time when an obstacle is detected. It is recommended that the driver looks over his/her shoulder when using ParkSense. PARKSENSE ACTIVE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM IF EQUIPPED The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is intended to assist the driver during parallel and perpendicular parking maneuvers by identifying a proper parking space, providing audible/
visual instructions, and controlling the steering wheel. The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is defined as semi-automatic since the driver maintains control of the accelerator, gear selector and brakes. Depending on the driver's parking maneuver selection, the ParkSense Active Park Assist system is capable of maneu-
vering a vehicle into a parallel or a perpendic-
ular parking space on either side (i.e., driver side or passenger side). NOTE:
The driver is always responsible for controlling the vehicle, responsible for any surrounding objects, and must intervene as required. The system is provided to assist the driver and not to substitute the driver. During a semi-automatic maneuver, if the driver touches the steering wheel after being instructed to remove their hands from the steering wheel, the system will cancel, and the driver will be required to manually complete the parking maneuver. The system may not work in all conditions
(e.g. environmental conditions such as heavy rain, snow, etc., or if searching for a parking space that has surfaces that will absorb the ultrasonic sensor waves). New vehicles from the dealership must have at least 30 miles (48 km) accumulated before the ParkSense Active Park Assist system is fully calibrated and performs accu-
rately. This is due to the systems dynamic vehicle calibration to improve the perfor-
mance of the feature. The system will also continuously perform the dynamic vehicle calibration to account for differences such as over or under inflated tires and new tires. Enabling And Disabling The ParkSense Active Park Assist System The ParkSense Active Park Assist system can be enabled and disabled with the ParkSense Active Park Assist switch, located on the switch panel below the Uconnect display. To enable the ParkSense Active Park Assist system, push the ParkSense Active Park Assist switch once (LED turns on). To disable the ParkSense Active Park Assist system, push the ParkSense Active Park Assist switch again (LED turns off). 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 265 STARTING AND OPERATING 265 The ParkSense Active Park Assist system will turn off automatically for any of the following conditions:

When searching for a parking space, use the turn signal indicator to select which side of the vehicle you want to perform the parking maneuver. The ParkSense Active Park Assist system will automatically search for a parking space on the passenger's side of the vehicle if the turn signal is not activated. The driver needs to make sure that the selected parking space for the maneuver remains free and clear of any obstructions
(e.g. pedestrians, bicycles, etc.). 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 266 266 STARTING AND OPERATING The driver is responsible to ensure that the selected parking space is suitable for the maneuver and free/clear of anything that may be overhanging or protruding into the parking space (e.g., ladders, tailgates, etc. from surrounding objects/vehicles). When seeking for a parking space, the driver should drive as parallel or perpendicular
(depending on the type of maneuver) to other vehicles as possible. The feature will only indicate the last detected parking space (example: if passing multiple available parking spaces, the system will only indicate the last detected parking space for the maneuver). Active ParkSense Searching When an available parking space has been found, and the vehicle is not in position, you will be instructed to move forward to position the vehicle for a parallel parking sequence.

(180 km/h). It uses a forward looking camera to detect lane markings and measure vehicle posi-
tion within the lane boundaries. When both lane markings are detected and the driver unintentionally drifts out of the lane (no turn signal applied), the LaneSense system provides a haptic warning in the form of torque applied to the steering wheel to prompt the driver to remain within the lane boundaries. The LaneSense system will also provide a visual warning through the instrument cluster display to prompt the driver to remain within the lane boundaries. The driver may manually override the haptic warning by applying torque into the steering wheel at any time. When only a single lane marking is detected and the driver unintentionally drifts across that lane marking (no turn signal applied), the Lane-
Sense system provides a visual warning through the instrument cluster display to prompt the driver to remain within the lane. When only a single lane marking is detected, a haptic (torque) warning will not be provided. NOTE:
When operating conditions have been met, the LaneSense system will monitor if the drivers hands are on the steering wheel and provide an audible and visual warning to the driver when the drivers hands are not detected on the steering wheel. The system will cancel if the driver does not return their hands to the wheel. STARTING AND OPERATING 275 Turning LaneSense On Or Off The LaneSense button is located on the switch panel below the Uconnect display.

This label contains the month and year of manu-
facture, Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) front and rear, and Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). A Month-Day-Hour (MDH) number is included on this label and indicates the Month, Day and Hour of manufacture. The bar code that appears on the bottom of the label is your VIN. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) The GVWR is the total permissible weight of your vehicle including driver, passengers, vehicle, options and cargo. The label also specifies maximum capacities of front and rear axle systems (GAWR). Total load must be limited so GVWR and front and rear GAWR are not exceeded. Payload The payload of a vehicle is defined as the allow-
able load weight a truck can carry, including the weight of the driver, all passengers, options and cargo. Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) The GAWR is the maximum permissible load on the front and rear axles. The load must be distributed in the cargo area so that the GAWR of each axle is not exceeded. Each axle GAWR is determined by the compo-
nents in the system with the lowest load carrying capacity (axle, springs, tires or wheels). Heavier axles or suspension components some-
times specified by purchasers for increased durability does not necessarily increase the vehicle's GVWR. Tire Size The tire size on the Vehicle Certification Label represents the actual tire size on your vehicle. Replacement tires must be equal to the load capacity of this tire size. STARTING AND OPERATING 283 Rim Size This is the rim size that is appropriate for the tire size listed. Inflation Pressure This is the cold tire inflation pressure for your vehicle for all loading conditions up to full GAWR. Curb Weight The curb weight of a vehicle is defined as the total weight of the vehicle with all fluids, including vehicle fuel, at full capacity condi-
tions, and with no occupants or cargo loaded into the vehicle. The front and rear curb weight values are determined by weighing your vehicle on a commercial scale before any occupants or cargo are added. 5 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 284 284 STARTING AND OPERATING Loading The actual total weight and the weight of the front and rear of your vehicle at the ground can best be determined by weighing it when it is loaded and ready for operation. The entire vehicle should first be weighed on a commercial scale to ensure that the GVWR has not been exceeded. The weight on the front and rear of the vehicle should then be determined separately to be sure that the load is properly distributed over the front and rear axle. Weighing the vehicle may show that the GAWR of either the front or rear axles has been exceeded but the total load is within the speci-
fied GVWR. If so, weight must be shifted from front to rear or rear to front as appropriate until the specified weight limitations are met. Store the heavier items down low and be sure that the weight is distributed equally. Stow all loose items securely before driving. Improper weight distributions can have an adverse effect on the way your vehicle steers and handles and the way the brakes operate. CAUTION!
Do not load your vehicle any heavier than the GVWR or the maximum front and rear GAWR. If you do, parts on your vehicle can break, or it can change the way your vehicle handles. This could cause you to lose control. Also overloading can shorten the life of your vehicle. TRAILER TOWING In this section you will find safety tips and infor-
mation on limits to the type of towing you can reasonably do with your vehicle. Before towing a trailer, carefully review this information to tow your load as efficiently and safely as possible. To maintain the New Vehicle Limited Warranty coverage, follow the requirements and recom-
mendations in this manual concerning vehicles used for trailer towing. Common Towing Definitions The following trailer towing related definitions will assist you in understanding the following information:
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) The Gross vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) is the total allowable weight of your vehicle. This includes driver, passengers, cargo and tongue weight. The total load must be limited so that you do not exceed the GVWR. Refer to Vehicle Loading/Vehicle Certification Label in this chapter for further information. Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) The Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) is the weight of the trailer plus the weight of all cargo, consum-
ables and equipment (permanent or temporary) loaded in or on the trailer in its "loaded and ready for operation" condition. The recommended way to measure GTW is to put your fully loaded trailer on a vehicle scale. The entire weight of the trailer must be supported by the scale. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 285 Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) The Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) is the maximum capacity of the front and rear axles. Distribute the load over the front and rear axles evenly. Make sure that you do not exceed either front or rear GAWR. Refer to Vehicle Loading/
Vehicle Certification Label in this chapter for further information. WARNING!
It is important that you do not exceed the maximum front or rear GAWR. A dangerous driving condition can result if either rating is exceeded. You could lose control of the vehicle and have a collision. Tongue Weight (TW) The tongue weight is the downward force exerted on the hitch ball by the trailer. You must consider this as part of the load on your vehicle. Trailer Frontal Area The frontal area is the maximum height multi-
plied by the maximum width of the front of a trailer. Trailer Sway Control The Trailer Sway Control can be a mechanical telescoping link that can be installed between the hitch receiver and the trailer tongue that typi-
cally provides adjustable friction associated with the telescoping motion to dampen any unwanted trailer swaying motions while traveling. If equipped, the electronic Trailer Sway Control
(TSC) recognizes a swaying trailer and automat-
ically applies individual wheel brakes and/or reduces engine power to attempt to eliminate the trailer sway. Weight-Carrying Hitch A weight-carrying hitch supports the trailer tongue weight, just as if it were luggage located at a hitch ball or some other connecting point of the vehicle. These kinds of hitches are the most popular on the market today and they are commonly used to tow small and medium sized trailers. Weight-Distributing Hitch A weight-distributing system works by applying leverage through spring (load) bars. They are typically used for heavier loads to distribute trailer tongue weight to the tow vehicle's front axle and the trailer axle(s). When used in accor-
dance with the manufacturer's directions, it STARTING AND OPERATING 285 provides for a more level ride, offering more consistent steering and brake control thereby enhancing towing safety. The addition of a fric-
tion/hydraulic sway control also dampens sway caused by traffic and crosswinds and contrib-
utes positively to tow vehicle and trailer stability. Trailer sway control and a weight distributing (load equalizing) hitch are recom-
mended for heavier Tongue Weights (TW) and may be required depending on vehicle and trailer configuration/loading to comply with Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) requirements. WARNING!
An improperly adjusted Weight Distributing Hitch system may reduce handling, stability, braking performance, and could result in a collision. Weight Distributing Systems may not be compatible with Surge Brake Couplers. Consult with your hitch and trailer manufac-
turer or a reputable Recreational Vehicle dealer for additional information. 5 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 286 286 STARTING AND OPERATING Trailer Hitch Classification The following chart provides the industry standard for the maximum trailer weight a given trailer hitch class can tow and should be used to assist you in selecting the correct trailer hitch for your intended towing condition.

The trailer tongue weight must be considered as part of the combined weight of occupants and cargo, and should never exceed the weight referenced on the Tire and Loading Information placard. Refer to Tires in Servicing And Main-
tenance for further information. Vehicle Loading Chart Follow these steps to determine the total weight the vehicle can carry. 1. Determine the cargo capacity of your vehicle. Load Capacity = GVWR Curb (weight of vehicle full fluids NO Occupants). 2. Determine occupant count. For calculation purposes, average weight of an occupant is 150 lb (68 kg). STARTING AND OPERATING 287 EXAMPLE:
GVWR = 6005 lbs (2723 kg) CURB = 4500 lbs (2041 kg) Load Capacity = GVWR CURB = 6005 lbs

STARTING AND OPERATING 289 WARNING!
Make certain that the load is secured in the trailer and will not shift during travel. When trailering cargo that is not fully secured, dynamic load shifts can occur that may be difficult for the driver to control. You could lose control of your vehicle and have a collision. When hauling cargo or towing a trailer, do not overload your vehicle or trailer. Over-
loading can cause a loss of control, poor performance or damage to brakes, axle, engine, transmission, steering, suspension, chassis structure or tires. 5 Safety chains must always be used between your vehicle and trailer. Always connect the chains to the hook retainers of the vehicle hitch. Cross the chains under the trailer tongue and allow enough slack for turning corners.
(Continued) Towing Requirements To promote proper break-in of your new vehicle drivetrain components, the following guidelines are recommended. CAUTION!
Do not tow a trailer at all during the first 500 miles (805 km) the new vehicle is driven. The engine, axle or other parts could be damaged. Then, during the first 500 miles (805 km) that a trailer is towed, do not drive over 50 mph (80 km/h) and do not make starts at full throttle. This helps the engine and other parts of the vehicle wear in at the heavier loads. Perform the maintenance listed in the Sched-
uled Servicing. Refer to Scheduled Servicing in Servicing And Maintenance for the proper maintenance intervals. When towing a trailer, never exceed the GAWR or GCWR ratings. Weight Distribution Consider the following items when computing the weight on the rear axle of the vehicle:
The tongue weight of the trailer. The weight of any other type of cargo or equipment put in or on your vehicle. The weight of the driver and all passengers. NOTE:
Remember that everything put into or on the trailer adds to the load on your vehicle. Also, additional factory-installed options or dealer-installed options must be considered as part of the total load on your vehicle. Refer to 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 290 290 STARTING AND OPERATING WARNING! (Continued) Towing Requirements Tires Do not attempt to tow a trailer while using a Towing Requirements Trailer Brakes Do not interconnect the hydraulic brake Vehicles with trailers should not be parked compact spare tire. on a grade. When parking, apply the parking brake on the tow vehicle. Put the tow vehicle transmission in PARK. For four-wheel drive vehicles, make sure the transfer case is not in NEUTRAL. Always, block or "chock" the trailer wheels. GCWR must not be exceeded. Total weight must be distributed between the tow vehicle and the trailer such that the following four ratings are not exceeded:
GVWR GTW GAWR Tongue weight rating for the trailer hitch utilized. Do not drive more than 50 mph (80 km/h) when towing while using a full size spare tire. Proper tire inflation pressures are essential to the safe and satisfactory operation of your vehicle. Refer to Tires in Servicing And Maintenance for proper tire inflation proce-
dures. Check the trailer tires for proper tire inflation pressures before trailer usage. Check for signs of tire wear or visible tire damage before towing a trailer. Refer to Tires in Servicing And Maintenance for the proper inspection procedure. When replacing tires, refer to Tires in Servicing And Maintenance for the proper tire replacement procedures. Replacing tires with a higher load carrying capacity will not increase the vehicle's GVWR and GAWR limits. system or vacuum system of your vehicle with that of the trailer. This could cause inad-
equate braking and possible personal injury. An electronically actuated trailer brake controller is required when towing a trailer with electronically actuated brakes. When towing a trailer equipped with a hydraulic surge actuated brake system, an electronic brake controller is not required. Trailer brakes are recommended for trailers over 1,000 lbs (453 kg) and required for trailers in excess of 2,000 lbs (907 kg). 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 291 WARNING!
Do not connect trailer brakes to your vehicle's hydraulic brake lines. It can over-
load your brake system and cause it to fail. You might not have brakes when you need them and could have an accident. Towing any trailer will increase your stop-
ping distance. When towing, you should allow for additional space between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you. Failure to do so could result in an accident. CAUTION!
If the trailer weighs more than 1,000 lbs
(453 kg) loaded, it should have its own brakes and they should be of adequate capacity. Failure to do this could lead to accelerated brake lining wear, higher brake pedal effort, and longer stopping distances. Towing Requirements Trailer Lights And Wiring Whenever you pull a trailer, regardless of the trailer size, stoplights and turn signals on the trailer are required for motoring safety. The Trailer Tow Package may include a four and seven-pin wiring harness. Use a factory approved trailer harness and connector. NOTE:
Do not cut or splice wiring into the vehicles wiring harness. The electrical connections are all complete to the vehicle but you must mate the harness to a trailer connector. Refer to the following illustra-
tions. STARTING AND OPERATING 291 NOTE:
Disconnect trailer wiring connector from the vehicle before launching a boat (or any other device plugged into vehicles electrical connect) into water. Be sure to reconnect once clear from water area. 5 Four-Pin Connector 1 Female Pins 2 Male Pin 3 Ground 4 Park 5 Left Stop/Turn 6 Right Stop/Turn 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 292 292 STARTING AND OPERATING Seven-Pin Connector 1 Battery 2 Backup Lamps 3 Right Stop/Turn 4 Electric Brakes 5 Ground 6 Left Stop/Turn 7 Running Lamps Towing Tips Before setting out on a trip, practice turning, stopping, and backing up the trailer in an area located away from heavy traffic. loads. Speed Control If Equipped Do not use on hilly terrain or with heavy Automatic Transmission Select the DRIVE range when towing. The trans-
mission controls include a drive strategy to avoid frequent shifting when towing. For increased engine braking on steep downhill grades, select the LOW range. When using the Speed Control, if you experi-
ence speed drops greater than 10 mph
(16 km/h), disengage until you can get back to cruising speed. Use Speed Control in flat terrain and with light loads to maximize fuel efficiency. Cooling System To reduce potential for engine and transmission overheating, take the following actions:
City Driving In city traffic while stopped, place the trans-
mission in NEUTRAL (N), but do not increase engine idle speed. Highway Driving Reduce speed. Temporarily turn off air conditioning. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 293 RECREATIONAL TOWING (BEHIND MOTORHOME, ETC.)

DRIVING TIPS Driving On Slippery Surfaces Information in this section will aid in safe controlled launches in adverse conditions. Acceleration Rapid acceleration on snow covered, wet, or other slippery surfaces may cause the driving wheels to pull erratically to the right or left. This phenomenon occurs when there is a difference in the surface traction under the front (driving) wheels. WARNING!
Rapid acceleration on slippery surfaces is dangerous. Unequal traction can cause sudden pulling of the front wheels. You could lose control of the vehicle and possibly have a collision. Accelerate slowly and carefully whenever there is likely to be poor traction
(ice, snow, wet, mud, loose sand, etc.). Traction When driving on wet or slushy roads, it is possible for a wedge of water to build up between the tire and road surface. This is hydro-
planing and may cause partial or complete loss of vehicle control and stopping ability. To reduce this possibility, the following precau-
tions should be observed:
Slow down during rainstorms or when the roads are slushy. Slow down if the road has standing water or puddles. Replace the tires when tread wear indicators first become visible. Keep tires properly inflated. Maintain sufficient distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you to avoid a collision in a sudden stop. Driving Through Water Driving through water more than a few inches/
centimeters deep will require extra caution to ensure safety and prevent damage to your vehicle. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 295 Flowing/Rising Water WARNING!
Do not drive on or across a road or path where water is flowing and/or rising (as in storm run-off). Flowing water can wear away the road or path's surface and cause your vehicle to sink into deeper water. Furthermore, flowing and/or rising water can carry your vehicle away swiftly. Failure to follow this warning may result in injuries that are serious or fatal to you, your passengers, and others around you. Shallow Standing Water Although your vehicle is capable of driving through shallow standing water, consider the following Warnings and Cautions before doing so. WARNING!
Driving through standing water limits your vehicles traction capabilities. Do not exceed 5 mph (8 km/h) when driving through standing water.
(Continued) WARNING! (Continued) CAUTION! (Continued) Driving through standing water limits your Do not exceed 5 mph (8 km/h) when STARTING AND OPERATING 295 vehicles braking capabilities, which increases stopping distances. Therefore, after driving through standing water, drive slowly and lightly press on the brake pedal several times to dry the brakes. Failure to follow these warnings may result in injuries that are serious or fatal to you, your passengers, and others around you. CAUTION!
Always check the depth of the standing water before driving through it. Never drive through standing water that is deeper than the bottom of the tire rims mounted on the vehicle. Determine the condition of the road or the path that is under water and if there are any obstacles in the way before driving through the standing water.
(Continued) driving through standing water. This will minimize wave effects. Driving through standing water may cause damage to your vehicles drivetrain compo-
nents. Always inspect your vehicles fluids
(i.e., engine oil, transmission, axle, etc.) for signs of contamination (i.e., fluid that is milky or foamy in appearance) after driving through standing water. Do not continue to operate the vehicle if any fluid appears contaminated, as this may result in further damage. Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Getting water inside your vehicles engine can cause it to lock up and stall out, and cause serious internal damage to the engine. Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. 5 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 296 296 IN CASE OF EMERGENCY HAZARD WARNING FLASHERS The Hazard Warning Flashers switch is located in the lower center area of the instrument panel.

If your vehicle is out of fuel and an auxiliary fuel can is needed, insert the funnel into the filler neck and proceed to fill the vehicle. If frequent jump starting is required to start your vehicle you should have the battery and charging system inspected at an authorized dealer. CAUTION!
Accessories plugged into the vehicle power outlets draw power from the vehicles battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular devices, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long enough without engine operation, the vehicles battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life and/or prevent the engine from starting. Emergency Fuel Fill Funnel For more information on the Cap-Less Fuel System refer to Refueling The Vehicle in Starting And Operating in this manual. IN CASE OF EMERGENCY 333 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 trans-
mission in NEUTRAL (N), 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. 6 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. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 334 334 IN CASE OF EMERGENCY WARNING!
MANUAL PARK RELEASE 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. CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If temperature gauge reads 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 the H, turn the engine off immediately, and call for service. WARNING!
You should be seated in the drivers seat with your foot firmly placed on the brake pedal to maintain control of the vehicle before activating the Manual Park Release. If possible, you should apply the parking brake. Activating the Manual Park Release will allow your vehicle to roll away if it is not secured or properly connected to a tow vehicle. Activating the Manual Park Release on an unsecured vehicle could lead to serious injury or death for those in or around the vehicle. To move the vehicle in cases where the trans-
mission will not shift out of PARK (P) (such as a depleted battery), a Manual Park Release is available. Manual Park Release Access Cover Follow These Steps To Activate The Manual Park Release:
1. Apply firm pressure to the brake pedal while seated in the drivers seat. 2. Apply the parking brake, if possible. 3. Using a small screwdriver or similar tool, remove the Manual Park Release access cover, which is to the lower left of the steering column. 4. The Manual Park Release access cover is connected to a red tether strap. Pull the tether strap out as far as it will go, then release it. The transmission should now be in NEUTRAL (N), allowing the vehicle to be moved. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 335 NOTE:
When the lever is locked in the released posi-
tion, the tether will remain outside of the trim panel and the access cover cannot be rein-
stalled. 5. Release the parking brake only when the vehicle is securely connected to a tow vehicle. To Reset The Manual Park Release:
1. Apply firm pressure to the brake pedal while seated in the drivers seat. 2. Pull the tether strap out again, then release it. 3. Allow the tether to retract with the lever back to its original position. 4. Verify that the transmission is in PARK (P). 5. Confirm that the tether has retracted fully and re-install the access cover. If the access cover cannot be re-installed, repeat steps 1 through 4. FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow, it can often be moved using a rocking motion. Turn the steering wheel right and left to clear the area around the front wheels. Then shift back and forth between DRIVE (D) and REVERSE (R) while gently pressing the accelerator. NOTE:
Shifts between DRIVE and REVERSE can only be achieved at wheel speeds of 5 mph (8 km/h) or less. Whenever the transmission remains in NEUTRAL (N) for more than two seconds, you must press the brake pedal to engage DRIVE or REVERSE. Use the least amount of accelerator pedal pres-
sure that will maintain the rocking motion without spinning the wheels or racing the engine. IN CASE OF EMERGENCY 335 NOTE:
Push the "ESC OFF" switch to place the Elec-
tronic Stability Control (ESC) system in "Partial Off" mode, before rocking the vehicle. Refer to Electronic Brake Control in Safety for further information. Once the vehicle has been freed, push the "ESC OFF" switch again to restore "ESC On" mode. WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces generated by excessive wheel speeds may cause damage, or even failure, of the axle and tires. A tire could explode and injure someone. Do not spin your vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) or for longer than 30 seconds continuously without stopping when you are stuck and do not let anyone near a spinning wheel, no matter what the speed. 6 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 336 336 IN CASE OF EMERGENCY CAUTION!
CAUTION! (Continued) Racing the engine or spinning the wheels may lead to transmission overheating and failure. Allow the engine to idle with the transmission in NEUTRAL for at least one minute after every five rocking-motion cycles. This will minimize overheating and reduce the risk of transmission failure during prolonged efforts to free a stuck vehicle.
(Continued) When rocking a stuck vehicle by shifting between DRIVE and REVERSE, do not spin the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/h), or drivetrain damage may result. Revving the engine or spinning the wheels too fast may lead to transmission over-
heating and failure. It can also damage the tires. Do not spin the wheels above 30 mph
(48 km/h) while in gear (no transmission shifting occurring). TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE This section describes procedures for towing a disabled vehicle using a commercial towing service. Towing Condition Flat Tow Wheel Lift Or Dolly Tow Flatbed Wheel OFF The Ground NONE Front Rear ALL ALL MODELS NOT ALLOWED OK NOT ALLOWED BEST METHOD 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 337 Proper towing or lifting equipment is required to prevent damage to your vehicle. Use only tow bars and other equipment designed for this purpose, following equipment manufacturers instructions. Use of safety chains is mandatory. Attach a tow bar or other towing device to main structural members of the vehicle, not to bumpers or associated brackets. State and local laws regarding vehicles under tow must be observed. NOTE:
You must ensure that the Auto Park Brake feature is disabled before towing this vehicle

The oil change indi-
cator 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 will influence when the Oil Change Required message is displayed. Severe Operating Conditions 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). Your authorized dealer will reset the oil change indicator message after completing the sched-
uled oil change. If a scheduled oil change is performed by someone other than your autho-
rized dealer, the message can be reset by refer-
ring to Instrument Cluster Display in Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel. NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km), 12 months or 350 hours of engine run time, whichever comes first. The 350 hours of engine run or idle time is generally only a concern for fleet customers. Severe Duty All Models Change Engine Oil at 4,000 miles (6,500 km) or 350 hours of engine run time if the vehicle is operated in a dusty and off road environment or is operated predominately at idle or only very low engine RPM. This type of vehicle use is considered Severe Duty. Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:

Heavy Duty Use Of The Vehicle 7 Change engine oil at 4,000 miles (6,500 km) or 350 hours of engine run time if the vehicle is operated in a dusty and off road environment or is operated predominately at idle or only very low engine RPM. This type of vehicle use is considered Severe Duty. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 344 344 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE ENGINE COMPARTMENT 3.6L Engine 1 Engine Coolant Pressure Cap 2 Engine Oil Fill 3 Brake Fluid Reservoir Cap 4 Engine Air Cleaner 5 Power Distribution Center (Fuses) 6 Battery 7 Engine Oil Dipstick 8 Windshield Washer Fill Checking Oil Level Adding Washer Fluid 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 345 To assure proper engine lubrication, the engine oil must be maintained at the correct level. Check the oil level at regular intervals, such as every fuel stop. The best time to check the engine oil level is about five minutes after a fully warmed engine is shut off. Checking the oil while the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accuracy of the oil level readings. Maintain the oil level between the MIN and MAX markings on the dipstick. Adding one quart or one liter of oil when the reading is at the MIN mark will result in a MAX reading on these engines. CAUTION!
Overfilling or underfilling will cause oil aera-
tion, or loss of oil pressure. This could damage your engine. Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may result. Windshield Washer Fluid Cap The fluid reservoir is located in the front of the engine compartment. Be sure to check the fluid level in the reservoir at regular intervals. Fill the reservoir with windshield washer solvent (not radiator antifreeze) and operate the system for a few seconds to flush out the residual washer fluid. When refilling the washer fluid reservoir, take some washer fluid, apply it to a cloth or towel, and wipe clean the wiper blades; this will help blade performance. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 345 To prevent freeze-up of your windshield washer system in cold weather, select a solution or mixture that meets or exceeds the temperature range of your climate. This rating information can be found on most washer fluid containers. WARNING!
Commercially available windshield washer solvents are flammable. They could ignite and burn you. Care must be exercised when filling or working around the washer solution. 7 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 346 346 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE Maintenance-Free Battery Your vehicle is equipped with a mainte-
nance-free battery. You will never have to add water, nor is periodic maintenance required. WARNING!
Battery fluid is a corrosive acid solution and can burn or even blind you. Do not allow battery fluid to contact your eyes, skin, or clothing. Do not lean over a battery when attaching clamps. If acid splashes in eyes or on skin, flush the area immediately with large amounts of water. Refer to Jump Starting Procedure in In Case Of Emer-
gency for further information. Keep flame or sparks away from the battery. Do not use a booster battery or any other booster source with an output greater than 12 Volts. Do not allow cable clamps to touch each other. Battery posts, terminals, and related acces-
sories contain lead and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling. Battery gas is flammable and explosive. Pressure Washing CAUTION!
It is essential when replacing the cables on the battery that the positive cable is attached to the positive post and the nega-
tive cable is attached to the negative post. Battery posts are marked positive (+) and negative (-) and are identified on the battery case. Cable clamps should be tight on the terminal posts and free of corrosion. If a fast charger is used while the battery is in the vehicle, disconnect both vehicle battery cables before connecting the charger to the battery. Do not use a fast charger to provide starting voltage. CAUTION!
Cleaning the engine compartment with a high pressure washer is not recommended. Precautions have been taken to safeguard all parts and connections however, the pressures generated by these machines is such that complete protection against water ingress cannot be guaranteed. DEALER SERVICE An authorized dealer has the qualified service personnel, special tools, and equipment to perform all service operations in an expert manner.

If you have any doubt about your ability to perform a service job, take your vehicle to a competent mechanic. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 347 Engine Oil Change Engine Oil Refer to Scheduled Servicing in this section for the proper maintenance intervals. NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km), 12 months or 350 hours of engine run time, whichever comes first. The 350 hours of engine run or idle time is generally only a concern for fleet customers. Gasoline Engine Oil Selection For best performance and maximum protection under all types of operating conditions, the manufacturer only recommends engine oils that are API Certified and meet the require-
ments of FCA Material Standard MS-6395. American Petroleum Institute (API) Engine Oil Identification Symbol This symbol means that the oil has been certified by the American Petroleum Institute (API). The manufacturer only recommends API Certified engine oils. This symbol certifies 0W-20, 5W-20, 0W-30, 5W-30 and 10W-30 engine oils. CAUTION!
Do not use chemical flushes in your engine oil as the chemicals can damage your engine. Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Engine Oil Viscosity Mopar SAE 0W-20 engine oil approved to FCA Material Standard MS-6395 such as Pennzoil, Shell Helix or equivalent is recommended for all operating temperatures. This engine oil improves low temperature starting and vehicle fuel economy. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 347 The engine oil filler cap also shows the recom-
mended engine oil viscosity for your engine. For information on engine oil filler cap location, refer to the Engine Compartment illustration in this section. Lubricants which do not have both the engine oil certification mark and the correct SAE viscosity grade number should not be used. Synthetic Engine Oils You may use synthetic engine oils provided the recommended oil quality requirements are met, and the recommended maintenance intervals for oil and filter changes are followed. Synthetic engine oils which do not have both the engine oil certification mark and the correct SAE viscosity grade number should not be used. 7 Materials Added To Engine Oil The manufacturer strongly recommends against the addition of any additives (other than leak detection dyes) to the engine oil. Engine oil is an engineered product and its performance may be impaired by supplemental additives. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 348 348 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE Disposing Of Used Engine Oil And Oil Filters Care should be taken in disposing of used engine oil and oil filters from your vehicle. Used oil and oil filters, indiscriminately discarded, can present a problem to the environment. Contact an authorized dealer, service station or govern-
mental agency for advice on how and where used oil and oil filters can be safely discarded in your area. Engine Oil Filter The engine oil filter should be replaced with a new filter at every engine oil change. Engine Oil Filter Selection This manufacturer's engines have a full-flow type disposable oil filter. Use a filter of this type for replacement. The quality of replacement filters varies considerably. Only high quality filters should be used to ensure most efficient service. Mopar engine oil filters are high quality oil filters and are recommended. Engine Air Cleaner Filter Refer to the Maintenance Plan in this section for the proper maintenance intervals. NOTE:
Be sure to follow the Severe Duty Conditions maintenance interval if applicable. Engine Air Cleaner Filter Selection The quality of replacement engine air cleaner filters varies considerably. Only high quality filters should be used to ensure most efficient service. Mopar engine air cleaner filters are a high quality filter and are recommended. Accessory Drive Belt Inspection WARNING!
The air induction system (air cleaner, hoses, etc.) can provide a measure of protection in the case of engine backfire. Do not remove the air induction system (air cleaner, hoses, etc.) unless such removal is necessary for repair or maintenance. Make sure that no one is near the engine compartment before starting the vehicle with the air induction system (air cleaner, hoses, etc.) removed. Failure to do so can result in serious personal injury. WARNING!
Do not attempt to inspect an accessory drive belt with vehicle running. When working near the radiator cooling fan, disconnect the fan motor lead. The fan is temperature controlled and can start at any time regardless of ignition mode. You could be injured by the moving fan blades. You can be badly injured working on or around a motor vehicle. Only do service work for which you have the knowledge and the proper equipment. If you have any doubt about your ability to perform a service job, take your vehicle to a compe-
tent mechanic. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 349 When inspecting accessory drive belts, small cracks that run across the ribbed surface of a belt from rib to rib, are considered normal. These are not a reason to replace belt. However, cracks running along a rib (not across) are not normal. Any belt with cracks running along a rib must be replaced. Also, have the belt replaced if it has excessive wear, frayed cords, or severe glazing. Accessory Belt (Serpentine Belt) Conditions that would require replacement:
Rib chunking (one or more ribs has sepa-
rated from belt body) Rib or belt wear Longitudinal belt cracking (cracks between two ribs) Belt slips Belt broken Groove jumping" (belt does not maintain correct position on pulley) NOTE:
Identify and correct problem before new belt is installed Noise (objectionable squeal, squeak, or rumble is heard or felt while drive belt is in operation) Some conditions can be caused by a faulty component such as a belt pulley. Belt pulleys should be carefully inspected for damage and proper alignment. Belt replacement on some models requires the use of special tools, we recommend having your vehicle serviced at an authorized dealer. Air Conditioner Maintenance For best possible performance, your air condi-
tioner should be checked and serviced by an authorized dealer at the start of each warm season. This service should include cleaning of the condenser fins and a performance test. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 349 Drive belt tension should also be checked at this time. WARNING!
Use only refrigerants and compressor lubri-
cants approved by the manufacturer for your air conditioning system. Some unap-
proved refrigerants are flammable and can explode, injuring you. Other unapproved refrigerants or lubricants can cause the system to fail, requiring costly repairs. Refer to Warranty Information located online, for further warranty information. The air conditioning system contains refrig-
erant under high pressure. To avoid risk of personal injury or damage to the system, adding refrigerant or any repair requiring lines to be disconnected should be done by an experienced technician. 7 CAUTION!

Body Lubrication Locks and all body pivot points, including such items as seat tracks, door hinge pivot points and rollers, liftgate, tailgate, decklid, sliding doors and hood hinges, should be lubricated SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 351 periodically with a lithium based grease, such as Mopar Spray White Lube to ensure quiet, easy operation and to protect against rust and wear. Prior to the application of any lubricant, the parts concerned should be wiped clean to remove dust and grit; after lubricating, excess oil and grease should be removed. Particular attention should also be given to hood latching components to ensure proper function. When performing other underhood services, the hood latch release mechanism, and safety catch should be cleaned and lubricated. The external lock cylinders should be lubricated twice a year, preferably in the Autumn and Spring. Apply a small amount of a high quality lubricant, such as Mopar Lock Cylinder Lubri-
cant directly into the lock cylinder. Windshield Wiper Blades Clean the rubber edges of the wiper blades and the windshield periodically with a sponge or soft cloth and a mild nonabrasive cleaner. This will remove accumulations of salt or road film. Operation of the wipers on dry glass for long periods may cause deterioration of the wiper blades. Always use washer fluid when using the wipers to remove salt or dirt from a dry windshield. 7 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 352 352 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE Avoid using the wiper blades to remove frost or ice from the windshield. Keep the blade rubber out of contact with petroleum products such as engine oil, gasoline, etc. NOTE:
Life expectancy of wiper blades varies depending on geographical area and frequency of use. Poor performance of blades may be present with chattering, marks, water lines or wet spots. If any of these conditions are present, clean the wiper blades or replace as necessary. The wiper blades and wiper arms should be inspected periodically, not just when wiper performance problems are experienced. This inspection should include the following points:
Wear or uneven edges Foreign material Hardening or cracking Deformation or fatigue If a wiper blade or wiper arm is damaged, replace the affected wiper arm or blade with a new unit.

tained engine exhaust system. If you notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system; or if the exhaust fumes can be detected inside the vehicle; or when the under-
side or rear of the vehicle is damaged; have an authorized technician inspect the complete exhaust system and adjacent body areas for broken, damaged, deteriorated, or misposi-
tioned parts. Open seams or loose connections could permit exhaust fumes to seep into the passenger compartment. In addition, have the exhaust system inspected each time the vehicle is raised for lubrication or oil change. Replace as required. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 355 WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and odorless. Breathing it can make you unconscious and can eventually poison you. To avoid breathing CO, refer to Safety Tips in Safety for further information. A hot exhaust system can start a fire if you park over materials that can burn. Such materials might be grass or leaves coming into contact with your exhaust system. Do not park or operate your vehicle in areas where your exhaust system can contact anything that can burn. CAUTION!
The catalytic converter requires the use of unleaded fuel only. Leaded gasoline will destroy the effectiveness of the catalyst as an emissions control device and may seri-
ously reduce engine performance and cause serious damage to the engine.
(Continued) 7 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 356 356 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE CAUTION! (Continued) Damage to the catalytic converter can result if your vehicle is not kept in proper operating condition. In the event of engine malfunction, particularly involving engine misfire or other apparent loss of performance, have your vehicle serviced promptly. Continued opera-
tion of your vehicle with a severe malfunction could cause the converter to overheat, resulting in possible damage to the converter and vehicle. Under normal operating conditions, the cata-
lytic converter will not require maintenance. However, it is important to keep the engine properly tuned to ensure proper catalyst opera-
tion and prevent possible catalyst damage. NOTE:
Intentional tampering with emissions control systems can result in civil penalties being assessed against you. In unusual situations involving grossly malfunc-
tioning engine operation, a scorching odor may suggest severe and abnormal catalyst over-
heating. If this occurs, stop the vehicle, turn off the engine and allow it to cool. Service, including a tune-up to manufacturer's specifica-
tions, should be obtained immediately. To minimize the possibility of catalytic converter damage:
Do not interrupt the ignition when the trans-
mission is in gear and the vehicle is in motion. Do not try to start the vehicle by pushing or towing the vehicle. Do not idle the engine with any ignition components disconnected or removed, such as when diagnostic testing, or for prolonged periods during very rough idle or malfunc-
tioning operating conditions. Cooling System 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 open a cooling system pressure cap when the radiator or coolant bottle is hot.
(Continued) WARNING! (Continued) Keep hands, tools, clothing, and jewelry away from the radiator cooling fan when the hood is raised. The fan starts automati-
cally and may start at any time, whether the engine is running or not. When working near the radiator cooling fan, disconnect the fan motor lead or turn the ignition to the OFF mode. The fan is temperature controlled and can start at any time the ignition is in the ON mode. Engine Coolant Checks Check the engine coolant (antifreeze) protec-
tion every 12 months (before the onset of freezing weather, where applicable). If the engine coolant (antifreeze) is dirty, the system should be drained, flushed, and refilled with fresh OAT coolant (conforming to MS.90032) by an authorized dealer. Check the front of the A/C condenser for any accumulation of bugs, leaves, etc. If dirty, clean by gently spraying water from a garden hose vertically down the face of the condenser. Check the engine cooling system hoses for brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, and tight-
ness of the connection at the coolant recovery 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 357 bottle and radiator. Inspect the entire system for leaks. DO NOT REMOVE THE COOLANT PRESSURE CAP WHEN THE COOLING SYSTEM IS HOT. Cooling System Drain, Flush And Refill NOTE:
Some vehicles require special tools to add coolant properly. Failure to fill these systems properly could lead to severe internal engine damage. If any coolant is needed to be added to the system please contact an authorized dealer. If the engine coolant (antifreeze) is dirty or contains visible sediment, have an authorized dealer clean and flush with OAT coolant (anti-
freeze) (conforming to MS.90032). Refer to the Maintenance Plan in this section for the proper maintenance intervals. Selection Of Coolant Refer to Fluids And Lubricants in Technical Specifications for further information. NOTE:
(OAT) engine coolant (antifreeze), may result in engine damage and may decrease corro-
sion protection. Organic Additive Technology
(OAT) engine coolant is different and should not be mixed with Hybrid Organic Additive Technology (HOAT) engine coolant (anti-
freeze) or any globally compatible coolant
(antifreeze). If a non-OAT engine coolant
(antifreeze) is introduced into the cooling system in an emergency, the cooling system will need to be drained, flushed, and refilled with fresh OAT coolant (conforming to MS.90032), by an authorized dealer as soon as possible. Do not use water alone or alcohol-based engine coolant (antifreeze) products. Do not use additional rust inhibitors or antirust prod-
ucts, as they may not be compatible with the radiator engine coolant and may plug the radiator. This vehicle has not been designed for use with propylene glycol-based engine coolant
(antifreeze). Use of propylene glycolbased engine coolant (antifreeze) is not recom-
mended. Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze) other than specified Organic Additive Technology Some vehicles require special tools to add coolant properly. Failure to fill these systems SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 357 properly could lead to severe internal engine damage. If any coolant is needed to be added to the system please contact an authorized dealer. Adding Coolant Your vehicle has been built with an improved engine coolant (OAT coolant conforming to MS.90032) that allows extended maintenance intervals. This engine coolant (antifreeze) can be used up to ten years or 150,000 miles
(240,000 km) before replacement. To prevent reducing this extended maintenance period, it is important that you use the same engine coolant (OAT coolant conforming to MS.90032) throughout the life of your vehicle. Please review these recommendations for using Organic Additive Technology (OAT) engine coolant (antifreeze) that meets the require-
ments of FCA Material Standard MS.90032. When adding engine coolant (antifreeze):
We recommend using Mopar Antifreeze/
Coolant 10 Year/150,000 Mile (240,000 km) Formula OAT (Organic Additive Technology) that meets the requirements of FCA Material Standard MS.90032. Mix a minimum solution of 50% OAT engine coolant that meets the requirements of FCA 7 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 358 358 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE Material Standard MS.90032 and distilled water. Use higher concentrations (not to exceed 70%) if temperatures below 34F
(37C) are anticipated. Please contact an authorized dealer for assistance. Use only high purity water such as distilled or deionized water when mixing the water/
engine coolant (antifreeze) solution. The use of lower quality water will reduce the amount of corrosion protection in the engine cooling system. NOTE:
It is the owner's responsibility to maintain the proper level of protection against freezing according to the temperatures occurring in the area where the vehicle is operated. Some vehicles require special tools to add coolant properly. Failure to fill these systems properly could lead to severe internal engine damage. If any coolant is needed to be added to the system, please contact a local autho-
rized dealer. Mixing engine coolant (antifreeze) types is not recommended and can result in cooling system damage. If HOAT and OAT coolant are mixed in an emergency, have a authorized dealer drain, flush, and refill with OAT coolant
(conforming to MS.90032) as soon as possible. Cooling System Pressure Cap The cap must be fully tightened to prevent loss of engine coolant (antifreeze), and to ensure that engine coolant (antifreeze) will return to the radiator from the coolant expansion bottle/
recovery tank if so equipped. The cap should be inspected and cleaned if there is any accumulation of foreign material on the sealing surfaces. WARNING!
Do not open hot engine cooling system. Never add engine coolant (antifreeze) when the engine is overheated. Do not loosen or remove the cap to cool an overheated engine. Heat causes pressure to build up in the cooling system. To prevent scalding or injury, do not remove the pressure cap while the system is hot or under pressure. Do not use a pressure cap other than the one specified for your vehicle. Personal injury or engine damage may result. Disposal Of Used Coolant Used ethylene glycol-based coolant (antifreeze) is a regulated substance requiring proper disposal. Check with your local authorities to determine the disposal rules for your commu-
nity. To prevent ingestion by animals or chil-
dren, do not store ethylene glycol-based coolant in open containers or allow it to remain in puddles on the ground. If ingested by a child or pet, seek emergency assistance immediately. Clean up any ground spills immediately. Coolant Level The coolant expansion bottle provides a quick visual method for determining that the coolant level is adequate. With the engine off and cold, the level of the coolant (antifreeze) in the bottle should be between the MAX and MIN lines marked on the bottle. As long as the engine operating temperature is satisfactory, the coolant bottle need only be checked once a month. When additional coolant (antifreeze) is needed to maintain the proper level, it should be added to the coolant bottle. Do not overfill. See an authorized dealer for service. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 359 Points To Remember NOTE:
When the vehicle is stopped after a few miles/
kilometers of operation, you may observe vapor coming from the front of the engine compart-
ment. This is normally a result of moisture from rain, snow, or high humidity accumulating on the radiator and being vaporized when the ther-
mostat opens, allowing hot engine coolant (anti-
freeze) to enter the radiator. If an examination of your engine compartment shows no evidence of radiator or hose leaks, the vehicle may be safely driven. The vapor will soon dissipate. Do not overfill the coolant expansion bottle. Check the coolant freeze point in the radiator and in the coolant expansion bottle. If engine coolant (antifreeze) needs to be added, the contents of the coolant expansion bottle must also be protected against freezing. If frequent engine coolant (antifreeze) addi-
tions are required, the cooling system should be pressure tested for leaks. Maintain engine coolant (antifreeze) concen-
tration at a minimum of 50% OAT coolant
(conforming to MS.90032) and distilled water for proper corrosion protection of your engine which contains aluminum compo-
nents. Make sure that the coolant expansion bottle overflow hoses are not kinked or obstructed. Keep the front of the radiator clean. If your vehicle is equipped with air conditioning, keep the front of the condenser clean. Do not change the thermostat for Summer or Winter operation. If replacement is ever necessary, install ONLY the correct type ther-
mostat. Other designs may result in unsatis-
factory engine coolant (antifreeze) performance, poor gas mileage, and increased emissions. Brake System In order to ensure brake system performance, all brake system components should be inspected periodically. Refer to the Mainte-
SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 359 nance Plan in this section for the proper main-
tenance intervals. WARNING!
Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure and possibly a collision. Driving with your foot resting or riding on the brake pedal can result in abnormally high brake temperatures, excessive lining wear, and possible brake damage. You would not have your full braking capacity in an emergency. 7 Brake Master Cylinder The fluid in the master cylinder should be checked when performing under hood services or immediately if the Brake Warning Light is illuminated. Be sure to clean the top of the master cylinder area before removing the cap. If necessary, add fluid to bring the fluid level up to the require-
ments described on the brake fluid reservoir. With disc brakes, fluid level can be expected to fall as the brake pads wear. Brake fluid level should be checked when pads are replaced. However, low fluid level may be caused by a leak and a checkup may be needed. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 360 360 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE Use only manufacturer's recommended brake fluid. Refer to Fluids And Lubricants in Tech-
nical Specifications for further information. WARNING!
Use only manufacturer's recommended brake fluid. Refer to Fluids And Lubricants in Technical Specifications for further informa-
tion. Using the wrong type of brake fluid can severely damage your brake system and/or impair its performance. The proper type of brake fluid for your vehicle is also identified on the original factory installed hydraulic master cylinder reservoir. or moisture, use only new brake fluid or fluid that has been in a tightly closed container. Keep the master cylinder reser-
voir cap secured at all times. Brake fluid in a open container absorbs moisture from the air resulting in a lower boiling point. This may cause it to boil unexpectedly during hard or prolonged braking, resulting in sudden brake failure. This could result in a collision.
(Continued) WARNING! (Continued) Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can result in spilling brake fluid on hot engine parts, causing the brake fluid to catch fire. Brake fluid can also damage painted and vinyl surfaces, care should be taken to avoid its contact with these surfaces. Do not allow petroleum based fluid to contaminate the brake fluid. Brake seal components could be damaged, causing partial or complete brake failure. This could result in a collision. Selection Of Lubricant It is important to use the proper transmission fluid to ensure optimum transmission perfor-
mance and life. Use only the manufacturer's specified transmission fluid. Refer to Fluids And Lubricants in Technical Specifications for fluid specifications. It is important to main-
tain the transmission fluid at the correct level using the recommended fluid. To avoid contamination from foreign matter Automatic Transmission NOTE:
No chemical flushes should be used in any transmission; only the approved lubricant should be used. CAUTION!
Using a transmission fluid other than the manufacturers recommended fluid may cause deterioration in transmission shift quality and/or torque converter shudder. Refer to Fluids And Lubricants in Technical Specifications for fluid specifications. Special Additives The manufacturer strongly recommends against using any special additives in the trans-
mission. Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is an engineered product and its performance may be impaired by supplemental additives. Therefore, do not add any fluid additives to the transmission. Avoid using transmission sealers as they may adversely affect seals. CAUTION!
Do not use chemical flushes in your transmission as the chemicals can damage your transmission components. Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 361 Fluid Level Check The fluid level is preset at the factory and does not require adjustment under normal operating conditions. Routine fluid level checks are not required; therefore the transmission has no dipstick. An authorized dealer can check your transmission fluid level using special service tools. If you notice fluid leakage or transmission malfunction, visit an authorized dealer immedi-
ately to have the transmission fluid level checked. Operating the vehicle with an improper fluid level can cause severe transmis-
sion damage. CAUTION!
If a transmission fluid leak occurs, visit an authorized dealer immediately. Severe transmission damage may occur. An authorized dealer has the proper tools to adjust the fluid level accurately. Fluid And Filter Changes Under normal operating conditions, the fluid installed at the factory will provide satisfactory lubrication for the life of the vehicle. Routine fluid and filter changes are not required. However, change the fluid and filter if the fluid becomes contaminated (with water, etc.), or if the transmission is disassembled for any reason. RAISING THE VEHICLE In the case where it is necessary to raise the vehicle, go to an authorized dealer or service station.

Cold tire inflation pressure is defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after sitting for a minimum of three hours. Inflation pressure is measured in units of PSI (pounds per square inch) or kPa (kilopascals). The maximum inflation pressure is the maximum permissible cold tire inflation pressure for this tire. The maximum inflation pressure is molded into the sidewall. Vehicle manufacturer's recommended cold tire inflation pressure as shown on the tire placard. A label permanently attached to the vehicle describing the vehicles loading capacity, the original equipment tire sizes and the recommended cold tire inflation pressures. 7 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 366 366 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE Tire Loading And Tire Pressure NOTE:
The proper cold tire inflation pressure is listed on the drivers side B-Pillar or the rear edge of the driver's side door. Check the inflation pressure of each tire, including the spare tire (if equipped), at least monthly and inflate to the recommended pres-
sure for your vehicle. Example Tire Placard Location (B-Pillar) Tire And Loading Information Placard Example Tire Placard Location (Door) Tire And Loading Information Placard This placard tells you important information about the:
1. Number of people that can be carried in the vehicle. 2. Total weight your vehicle can carry. 3. Tire size designed for your vehicle. 4. Cold tire inflation pressures for the front, rear, and spare tires. Loading The vehicle maximum load on the tire must not exceed the load carrying capacity of the tire on your vehicle. You will not exceed the tire's load carrying capacity if you adhere to the loading conditions, tire size, and cold tire inflation pres-
sures specified on the Tire and Loading Infor-
mation placard in Vehicle Loading in the Starting And Operating section of this manual. NOTE:
Under a maximum loaded vehicle condition, gross axle weight ratings (GAWRs) for the front and rear axles must not be exceeded. For further information on GAWRs, vehicle loading, and trailer towing, refer to Vehicle Loading in the Starting And Operating section of this manual. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 367 To determine the maximum loading conditions of your vehicle, locate the statement The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs on the Tire and Loading Information placard. The combined weight of occupants, cargo/luggage and trailer tongue weight (if applicable) should never exceed the weight referenced here. Steps For Determining Correct Load Limit
(1) Locate the statement The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs. on your vehicle's placard.
(2) Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your vehicle.
(3) Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
(4) The resulting figure equals the avail-
able amount of cargo and luggage load capacity. For example, if XXX amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400-750
(5x150) = 650 lbs.)
(5) Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4.
(6) If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual to determine how this reduces the avail-
able cargo and luggage load capacity of your vehicle. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 367 Metric Example For Load Limit For example, if XXX amount equals 635 kg and there will be five 68 kg passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 295 kg (635-340
(5x68) = 295 kg) as shown in step 4. NOTE:
If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. The following table shows examples on how to calculate total load, cargo/
luggage, and towing capacities of your vehicle with varying seating configurations and number and size of occupants. This table is for illustration purposes only and may not be accurate for the seating and load carry capacity of your vehicle. 7 For the following example, the combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed 865 lbs (392 kg). 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 368 368 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 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. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 369 Tires General Information Tire Pressure Proper tire inflation pressure is essential to the safe and satisfactory operation of your vehicle. Four primary areas are affected by improper tire pressure:
Safety Fuel Economy Tread Wear Safety Ride Comfort and Vehicle Stability WARNING!
Improperly inflated tires are dangerous and can cause collisions. Underinflation increases tire flexing and can result in overheating and tire failure. Overinflation reduces a tire's ability to cushion shock. Objects on the road and chuckholes can cause damage that result in tire failure. WARNING! (Continued) Overinflated or underinflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail suddenly, resulting in loss of vehicle control. Unequal tire pressures can cause steering problems. You could lose control of your vehicle. Unequal tire pressures from one side of the vehicle to the other can cause the vehicle to drift to the right or left. Always drive with each tire inflated to the recommended cold tire inflation pressure. Both underinflation and overinflation affect the stability of the vehicle and can produce a feeling of sluggish response or over responsiveness in the steering. NOTE:
Unequal tire pressures from side to side may cause erratic and unpredictable steering response. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 369 Fuel Economy Underinflated tires will increase tire rolling resistance resulting in higher fuel consumption. Tread Wear Improper cold tire inflation pressures can cause abnormal wear patterns and reduced tread life, resulting in the need for earlier tire replace-
ment. Ride Comfort And Vehicle Stability Proper tire inflation contributes to a comfort-
able ride. Overinflation produces a jarring and uncomfortable ride. Tire Inflation Pressures The proper cold tire inflation pressure is listed on the driver's side B-Pillar or rear edge of the driver's side door. At least once a month:
Check and adjust tire pressure with a good quality pocket-type pressure gauge. Do not make a visual judgement when determining proper inflation. Tires may look properly inflated even when they are under-inflated. Inspect tires for signs of tire wear or visible 7
(Continued) Unequal tire pressure from side to side may cause the vehicle to drift left or right. damage. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 370 370 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE CAUTION!
After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure, always reinstall the valve stem cap. This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage the valve stem. Inflation pressures specified on the placard are always cold tire inflation pressure. Cold tire inflation pressure is defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after sitting for a minimum of three hours. The cold tire inflation pressure must not exceed the maximum inflation pressure molded into the tire sidewall. Check tire pressures more often if subject to a wide range of outdoor temperatures, as tire pressures vary with temperature changes. Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi
(7 kPa) per 12F (7C) of air temperature change. Keep this in mind when checking tire pressure inside a garage, especially in the Winter. Example: If garage temperature = 68F (20C) and the outside temperature = 32F (0C) then the cold tire inflation pressure should be increased by 3 psi (21 kPa), which equals 1 psi
(7 kPa) for every 12F (7C) for this outside temperature condition. Tire pressure may increase from 2 to 6 psi
(13 to 40 kPa) during operation. DO NOT reduce this normal pressure build up or your tire pres-
sure will be too low. Tire Pressures For High Speed Operation The manufacturer advocates driving at safe speeds and within posted speed limits. Where speed limits or conditions are such that the vehicle can be driven at high speeds, main-
taining correct tire inflation pressure is very important. Increased tire pressure and reduced vehicle loading may be required for high-speed vehicle operation. Refer to an authorized tire dealer or original equipment vehicle dealer for recommended safe operating speeds, loading and cold tire inflation pressures. WARNING!
High speed driving with your vehicle under maximum load is dangerous. The added strain on your tires could cause them to fail. You could have a serious collision. Do not drive a vehicle loaded to the maximum capacity at continuous speeds above 75 mph (120 km/h). 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 371 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 371 Tire Spinning When stuck in mud, sand, snow, or ice condi-
tions, do not spin your vehicle's wheels above 30 mph (48 km/h) or for longer than 30 seconds continuously without stopping. Refer to Freeing A Stuck Vehicle in In Case Of Emergency for further information. WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces generated by excessive wheel speeds may cause tire damage or failure. A tire could explode and injure someone. Do not spin your vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) for more than 30 seconds continuously when you are stuck, and do not let anyone near a spinning wheel, no matter what the speed. 7 Radial Ply Tires WARNING!
Combining radial ply tires with other types of tires on your vehicle will cause your vehicle to handle poorly. The instability could cause a collision. Always use radial ply tires in sets of four. Never combine them with other types of tires. Tire Repair If your tire becomes damaged, it may be repaired if it meets the following criteria:
The tire has not been driven on when flat. The damage is only on the tread section of your tire (sidewall damage is not repairable). The puncture is no greater than a of an inch (6 mm). Consult an authorized tire dealer for tire repairs and additional information. Damaged Run Flat tires, or Run Flat tires that have experienced a loss of pressure should be replaced immediately with another Run Flat tire of identical size and service description (Load Index and Speed Symbol). Replace the tire pres-
sure sensor as well as it is not designed to be reused. Run Flat Tires If Equipped Run Flat tires allow you the capability to drive 50 miles (80 km) at 50 mph (80 km/h) after a rapid loss of inflation pressure. This rapid loss of inflation is referred to as the Run Flat mode. A Run Flat mode occurs when the tire inflation pressure is of/or below 14 psi (96 kPa). Once a Run Flat tire reaches the run flat mode it has limited driving capabilities and needs to be replaced immediately. A Run Flat tire is not repairable. When a run flat tire is changed after driving with underinflated tire condition, please replace the TPM sensor as it is not designed to be reused when driven under run flat mode 14 psi (96 kPa) condition. NOTE:
TPM Sensor must be replaced after driving the vehicle on a flat tire condition. It is not recommended driving a vehicle loaded at full capacity or to tow a trailer while a tire is in the run flat mode. See the tire pressure monitoring section for more information. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 372 372 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE Tread Wear Indicators Tread wear indicators are in the original equip-
ment tires to help you in determining when your tires should be replaced. Life Of Tire The service life of a tire is dependent upon varying factors including, but not limited to:
Driving style. Tire pressure - Improper cold tire inflation pressures can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the tire tread. These abnormal wear patterns will reduce tread life, resulting in the need for earlier tire replace-
ment. Distance driven. Performance tires, tires with a speed rating of V or higher, and Summer tires typically have a reduced tread life. Rotation of these tires per the vehicle scheduled maintenance is highly recommended. Tire Tread 1 Worn Tire 2 New Tire These indicators are molded into the bottom of the tread grooves. They will appear as bands when the tread depth becomes a 1/16 of an inch (1.6 mm). When the tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the tire should be replaced. Refer to Replacement Tires in this section for further information. WARNING!
Tires and the spare tire should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure. You could lose control and have a collision resulting in serious injury or death. NOTE:
Wheel Valve Stem must be replaced as well when installing new tires due to wear and tear in existing tires. Keep dismounted tires in a cool, dry place with as little exposure to light as possible. Protect tires from contact with oil, grease, and gasoline. Replacement Tires The tires on your new vehicle provide a balance of many characteristics. They should be inspected regularly for wear and correct cold tire inflation pressures. The manufacturer strongly recommends that you use tires equiva-
lent to the originals in size, quality and perfor-
mance when replacement is needed. Refer to the paragraph on Tread Wear Indicators in this section. Refer to the Tire and Loading Infor-
mation placard or the Vehicle Certification Label for the size designation of your tire. The Load Index and Speed Symbol for your tire will be found on the original equipment tire sidewall. See the Tire Sizing Chart example found in the Tire Safety Information section of this manual for more information relating to the Load Index and Speed Symbol of a tire. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 373 It is recommended to replace the two front tires or two rear tires as a pair. Replacing just one tire can seriously affect your vehicles handling. If you ever replace a wheel, make sure that the wheels specifications match those of the orig-
inal wheels. It is recommended you contact an authorized tire dealer or original equipment dealer with any questions you may have on tire specifications or capability. Failure to use equivalent replace-
ment tires may adversely affect the safety, handling, and ride of your vehicle. WARNING!
Do not use a tire, wheel size, load rating, or speed rating other than that specified for your vehicle. Some combinations of unap-
proved tires and wheels may change suspension dimensions and performance characteristics, resulting in changes to steering, handling, and braking of your vehicle. This can cause unpredictable handling and stress to steering and suspension components. You could lose control and have a collision resulting in serious injury or death. Use only the tire and wheel sizes with load ratings approved for your vehicle.
(Continued) WARNING! (Continued) Never use a tire with a smaller load index or capacity, other than what was originally equipped on your vehicle. Using a tire with a smaller load index could result in tire overloading and failure. You could lose control and have a collision. Failure to equip your vehicle with tires having adequate speed capability can result in sudden tire failure and loss of vehicle control. CAUTION!
Replacing original tires with tires of a different size may result in false speedometer and odometer readings. Tire Types SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 373 sidewall. Use all season tires only in sets of four;
failure to do so may adversely affect the safety and handling of your vehicle. Summer Or Three Season Tires If Equipped Summer tires provide traction in both wet and dry conditions, and are not intended to be driven in snow or on ice. If your vehicle is equipped with Summer tires, be aware these tires are not designed for Winter or cold driving conditions. Install Winter tires on your vehicle when ambient temperatures are less than 40F
(5C) or if roads are covered with ice or snow. For more information, contact an authorized dealer. Summer tires do not contain the all season designation or mountain/snowflake symbol on the tire sidewall. Use Summer tires only in sets of four; failure to do so may adversely affect the safety and handling of your vehicle. 7 All Season Tires If Equipped All Season tires provide traction for all seasons
(Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter). Traction levels may vary between different all season tires. All season tires can be identified by the M+S, M&S, M/S or MS designation on the tire WARNING!
Do not use Summer tires in snow/ice conditions. You could lose vehicle control, resulting in severe injury or death. Driving too fast for conditions also creates the possibility of loss of vehicle control. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 374 374 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE Snow Tires Some areas of the country require the use of snow tires during the Winter. Snow tires can be identified by a mountain/snowflake symbol on the tire sidewall. If you need snow tires, select tires equivalent in size and type to the orig-
inal equipment tires. Use snow tires only in sets of four; failure to do so may adversely affect the safety and handling of your vehicle. Snow tires generally have lower speed ratings than what was originally equipped with your vehicle and should not be operated at sustained speeds over 75 mph (120 km/h). For speeds above 75 mph (120 km/h) refer to orig-
inal equipment or an authorized tire dealer for recommended safe operating speeds, loading and cold tire inflation pressures. While studded tires improve performance on ice, skid and traction capability on wet or dry surfaces may be poorer than that of non-studded tires. Some states prohibit studded tires; therefore, local laws should be checked before using these tire types. Spare Tires If Equipped NOTE:
For vehicles equipped with Tire Service Kit instead of a spare tire, please refer to Tire Service Kit in In Case Of Emergency for further information. CAUTION!
Because of the reduced ground clearance, do not take your vehicle through an automatic car wash with a compact or limited use temporary spare installed. Damage to the vehicle may result. Refer to the Towing Requirements - Tires in Starting And Operating for restrictions when towing with a spare tire designated for tempo-
rary emergency use. Spare Tire Matching Original Equipped Tire And Wheel If Equipped Your vehicle may be equipped with a spare tire and wheel equivalent in look and function to the original equipment tire and wheel found on the front or rear axle of your vehicle. This spare tire may be used in the tire rotation for your vehicle. If your vehicle has this option, refer to an autho-
rized tire dealer for the recommended tire rota-
tion pattern. Compact Spare Tire If Equipped The compact spare is for temporary emergency use only. You can identify if your vehicle is equipped with a compact spare by looking at the spare tire description on the Tire and Loading Information Placard located on the drivers side door opening or on the sidewall of the tire. Compact spare tire descriptions begin with the letter T or S preceding the size designation. Example: T145/80D18 103M. T, S = Temporary Spare Tire Since this tire has limited tread life, the original equipment tire should be repaired (or replaced) and reinstalled on your vehicle at the first opportunity. Do not install a wheel cover or attempt to mount a conventional tire on the compact spare wheel, since the wheel is designed specifically for the compact spare tire. Do not install more than one compact spare tire and wheel on the vehicle at any given time. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 375 WARNING!
Compact and collapsible spares are for temporary emergency use only. With these spares, do not drive more than 50 mph
(80 km/h). Temporary use spares have limited tread life. When the tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the temporary use spare tire needs to be replaced. Be sure to follow the warnings, which apply to your spare. Failure to do so could result in spare tire failure and loss of vehicle control. Collapsible Spare Tire If Equipped The collapsible spare is for temporary emer-
gency use only. You can identify if your vehicle is equipped with a collapsible spare by looking at the spare tire description on the Tire and Loading Information Placard located on the drivers side door opening or on the sidewall of the tire. Collapsible spare tire description example:
165/80-17 101P. Since this tire has limited tread life, the original equipment tire should be repaired (or replaced) and reinstalled on your vehicle at the first opportunity. Inflate collapsible tire only after the wheel is properly installed to the vehicle. Inflate the collapsible tire using the electric air pump before lowering the vehicle. Do not install a wheel cover or attempt to mount a conventional tire on the collapsible spare wheel, since the wheel is designed specifically for the collapsible spare tire. WARNING!
Compact and Collapsible spares are for temporary emergency use only. With these spares, do not drive more than 50 mph
(80 km/h). Temporary use spares have limited tread life. When the tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the temporary use spare tire needs to be replaced. Be sure to follow the warnings, which apply to your spare. Failure to do so could result in spare tire failure and loss of vehicle control. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 375 Full Size Spare If Equipped The full size spare is for temporary emergency use only. This tire may look like the originally equipped tire on the front or rear axle of your vehicle, but it is not. This spare tire may have limited tread life. When the tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the temporary use full size spare tire needs to be replaced. Since it is not the same as your original equipment tire, replace (or repair) the original equipment tire and reinstall on the vehicle at the first opportunity. Limited Use Spare If Equipped The limited use spare tire is for temporary emergency use only. This tire is identified by a label located on the limited use spare wheel. This label contains the driving limitations for this spare. This tire may look like the original equipped tire on the front or rear axle of your vehicle, but it is not. Installation of this limited use spare tire affects vehicle handling. Since it is not the same as your original equipment tire, replace (or repair) the original equipment tire and reinstall on the vehicle at the first opportunity. 7 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 376 376 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE WARNING!
Limited use spares are for emergency use only. Installation of this limited use spare tire affects vehicle handling. With this tire, do not drive more than the speed listed on the limited use spare wheel. Keep inflated to the cold tire inflation pressures listed on your Tire and Loading Information Placard located on the drivers side B-Pillar or the rear edge of the drivers side door. Replace (or repair) the original equipment tire at the first opportunity and reinstall it on your vehicle. Failure to do so could result 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 using mild (neutral Ph) soap and water to maintain their luster and to prevent corro-
sion. Wash wheels with the same soap solution recommended for the body of the vehicle and remember to always wash when the surfaces are not hot to the touch. Your wheels are susceptible to deterioration caused by salt, sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, etc., and other road chemicals used to melt ice or control dust on dirt roads. Use a soft cloth or sponge and mild soap to wipe away promptly. Do not use harsh chemicals or a stiff brush. They can damage the wheels protective coating that helps keep them from corroding and tarnishing. CAUTION!
Avoid products or automatic car washes that use acidic solutions or strong alkaline additives or harsh brushes. Many aftermarket wheel cleaners and automatic car washes may damage the wheel's protective finish. Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Only car wash soap, Mopar Wheel Cleaner or equivalent is recommended. When cleaning extremely dirty wheels including excessive brake dust, care must be taken in the selection of tire and wheel cleaning chemicals and equipment to prevent damage to the wheels. Mopar Wheel Treatment or Mopar Chrome Cleaner or their equivalent is recom-
mended or select a non-abrasive, non-acidic cleaner for aluminum or chrome wheels. CAUTION!
Do not use scouring pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, metal polishes or oven cleaner. These products may damage the wheel's protective finish. Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Only car wash soap, Mopar Wheel Cleaner or equivalent is recommended. NOTE:
If you intend parking or storing your vehicle for an extended period after cleaning the wheels with wheel cleaner, drive your vehicle and apply the brakes to remove the water droplets from the brake components. This activity will remove the red rust on the brake rotors and prevent vehicle vibration when braking. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 377 Dark Vapor Chrome, Black Satin Chrome, or Low Gloss Clear Coat Wheels CAUTION!
If your vehicle is equipped with these specialty wheels, DO NOT USE wheel cleaners, abrasives, or polishing compounds. They will permanently damage this finish and such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. HAND WASH ONLY USING MILD SOAP AND WATER WITH A SOFT CLOTH. Used on a regular basis; this is all that is required to maintain this finish. Tire Chains (Traction Devices) Use of traction devices require sufficient tire-to-body clearance. Follow these recommen-
dations to guard against damage:
Traction device must be of proper size for the tire, as recommended by the traction device manufacturer. Install on front tires only. For a 235/65R17 or 235/60R18 tire, use of a snow traction device with a maximum projection of 9 mm beyond the tire profile is recommended. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 377 WARNING!
CAUTION! (Continued) Using tires of different size and type (M+S, Snow) between front and rear axles can cause unpredictable handling. You could lose control and have a collision. CAUTION!
To avoid damage to your vehicle or tires, observe the following precautions:
Because of restricted traction device clear-
ance between tires and other suspension components, it is important that only trac-
tion devices in good condition are used. Broken devices can cause serious damage. Stop the vehicle immediately if noise occurs that could indicate device breakage. Remove the damaged parts of the device before further use. Install device as tightly as possible and then retighten after driving about mile
(0.8 km). Do not exceed 30 mph (48 km/h).
(Continued) Drive cautiously and avoid severe turns and large bumps, especially with a loaded vehicle. Do not drive for a prolonged period on dry pavement. Observe the traction device manufacturers instructions on the method of installation, operating speed, and conditions for use. Always use the suggested operating speed of the device manufacturers if it is less than 30 mph (48 km/h). Do not use traction devices on a compact spare tire. Tire Rotation Recommendations 7 The tires on the front and rear of your vehicle operate at different loads and perform different steering, driving, and braking functions. For these reasons, they wear at unequal rates. These effects can be reduced by timely rotation of tires. The benefits of rotation are especially worthwhile with aggressive tread designs such as those on all season type tires. Rotation will increase tread life, help to maintain mud, snow 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 378 378 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE and wet traction levels, and contribute to a smooth, quiet ride. Refer to the Scheduled Servicing for the proper maintenance intervals. The reasons for any rapid or unusual wear should be corrected prior to rotation being performed. The suggested rotation method is the forward cross shown in the following diagram. This rotation pattern does not apply to some direc-
tional tires that must not be reversed. Tire Rotation (Forward Cross) DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION UNIFORM TIRE QUALITY GRADES The following tire grading categories were established by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The specific grade rating assigned by the tire's manufacturer in each category is shown on the sidewall of the tires on your vehicle. All passenger vehicle tires must conform to Federal safety requirements in addi-
tion to these grades. Treadwear The Treadwear grade is a comparative rating, based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one-half times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to varia-
tions in driving habits, service practices, and differences in road characteristics and climate. Traction Grades The Traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. These grades represent the tire's ability to stop on wet pavement, as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance. WARNING!
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead braking traction tests, and does not include acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction characteristics. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 379 Temperature Grades The Temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat, when tested under controlled conditions on a speci-
fied indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance, which all passenger vehicle tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A repre-
sent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel, than the minimum required by law. WARNING!
The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, under-inflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure. STORING THE VEHICLE If the vehicle should remain stationary for more than a month, observe the following precau-
tions:
Park your vehicle in a covered, dry and possibly airy location the windows open slightly. engaged. Disconnect the negative (-) terminal from the battery post and be sure that the battery is fully charged. During storage check battery charge quarterly. If you do not disconnect the battery from the electrical system, check the battery charge every 30 days. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 379 Clean and protect the painted parts by applying protective waxes. Clean and protect polished metal parts by applying protective waxes. Apply talcum powder to the front and rear wiper blades and leave raised from the glass. Cover the vehicle with an appropriate cover taking care not to damage the painted surface by dragging across dirty surfaces. Do not use plastic sheeting which will not allow the evaporation of moisture present on the surface of the vehicle. Inflate the tires at a pressure of +7.25 psi
(+0.5 bar) higher than recommended on the tire placard and check it periodically. 7 Whenever you leave the vehicle stationary for two weeks or more, idle the vehicle for approximately five minutes, with the air conditioning system on and high fan speed. This will ensure proper lubrication of the system, thus minimizing the possibility of damage to the compressor when the vehicle is put back into operation. Check that the Electric Park Brake is not Do not drain the vehicles cooling system. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 380 380 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE CAUTION!
Before removal of the positive and negative terminals to the battery, wait at least a minute with ignition switch in the OFF position and close the drivers door. When reconnecting the positive and negative terminals to the battery be sure the ignition switch is in the OFF position and the drivers door is closed. The following maintenance recommendations will enable you to obtain maximum benefit from the corrosion resistance built into your vehicle. What Causes Corrosion?
Corrosion is the result of deterioration or removal of paint and protective coatings from your vehicle. The most common causes are:
Road salt, dirt and moisture accumulation BODYWORK Protection From Atmospheric Agents Vehicle body care requirements vary according to geographic locations and usage. Chemicals that make roads passable in snow and ice and those that are sprayed on trees and road surfaces during other seasons are highly corro-
sive to the metal in your vehicle. Outside parking, which exposes your vehicle to airborne contaminants, road surfaces on which the vehicle is operated, extreme hot or cold weather and other extreme conditions will have an adverse effect on paint, metal trim, and under-
body protection. Stone and gravel impact Insects, tree sap and tar Salt in the air near seacoast localities Atmospheric fallout/industrial pollutants Body And Underbody Maintenance Cleaning Headlights Your vehicle is equipped with plastic headlights and fog lights that are lighter and less suscep-
tible to stone breakage than glass headlights. Plastic is not as scratch resistant as glass and therefore different lens cleaning procedures must be followed. To minimize the possibility of scratching the lenses and reducing light output, avoid wiping with a dry cloth. To remove road dirt, wash with a mild soap solution followed by rinsing. Do not use abrasive cleaning components, solvents, steel wool or other aggressive mate-
rial to clean the lenses. Preserving The Bodywork Washing Wash your vehicle regularly. Always wash your vehicle in the shade using Mopar Car Wash, or a mild car wash soap, and rinse the panels completely with clear water. If insects, tar, or other similar deposits have accumulated on your vehicle, use Mopar Super Kleen Bug and Tar Remover to remove. Use a high quality cleaner wax, such as Mopar Cleaner Wax to remove road film, stains and to protect your paint finish. Take care never to scratch the paint. Avoid using abrasive compounds and power buffing that may diminish the gloss or thin out the paint finish. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 381 CAUTION!
Do not use abrasive or strong cleaning materials such as steel wool or scouring powder that will scratch metal and painted surfaces. Use of power washers exceeding 1,200 psi
(8,274 kPa) can result in damage or removal of paint and decals. Special Care If you drive on salted or dusty roads or if you drive near the ocean, hose off the undercar-
riage at least once a month. It is important that the drain holes in the lower edges of the doors, rocker panels, and trunk be kept clear and open. If you detect any stone chips or scratches in the paint, touch them up immediately. The cost of such repairs is considered the respon-
sibility of the owner. If your vehicle is damaged due to a collision or similar cause that destroys the paint and protective coating, have your vehicle repaired as soon as possible. The cost of such repairs is considered the responsibility of the owner. If you carry special cargo such as chemicals, fertilizers, de-icer salt, etc., be sure that such materials are well packaged and sealed. If a lot of driving is done on gravel roads, consider mud or stone shields behind each wheel. Use Mopar Touch Up Paint on scratches as soon as possible. An authorized dealer has touch up paint to match the color of your vehicle. INTERIORS Seats And Fabric Parts Use Mopar Total Clean to clean fabric uphol-
stery and carpeting. WARNING!
Do not use volatile solvents for cleaning purposes. Many are potentially flammable, and if used in closed areas they may cause respiratory harm. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 381 Seat Belt Maintenance Do not bleach, dye or clean the belts with chem-
ical solvents or abrasive cleaners. This will weaken the fabric. Sun damage can also weaken the fabric. If the belts need cleaning, use a mild soap solu-
tion or lukewarm water. Do not remove the belts from the vehicle to wash them. Dry with a soft cloth. Replace the belts if they appear frayed or worn or if the buckles do not work properly. WARNING!
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 (i.e., bent retractor, torn webbing, etc.). 7 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 382 382 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE Plastic And Coated Parts Leather Parts Use Mopar Total Clean to clean vinyl upholstery. CAUTION!
Direct contact of air fresheners, insect repellents, suntan lotions, or hand sani-
tizers to the plastic, painted, or decorated surfaces of the interior may cause perma-
nent damage. Wipe away immediately. Damage caused by these type of products may not be covered by your New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Cleaning Plastic Instrument Cluster Lenses The lenses in front of the instruments in this vehicle are molded in clear plastic. When cleaning the lenses, care must be taken to avoid scratching the plastic. 1. Clean with a wet soft cloth. A mild soap solution may be used, but do not use high alcohol content or abrasive cleaners. If soap is used, wipe clean with a clean damp cloth. 2. Dry with a soft cloth. Mopar Total Clean is specifically recommended for leather upholstery. Your leather upholstery can be best preserved by regular cleaning with a damp soft cloth. Small particles of dirt can act as an abrasive and damage the leather upholstery and should be removed promptly with a damp cloth. Stub-
born soils can be removed easily with a soft cloth and Mopar Total Clean. Care should be taken to avoid soaking your leather upholstery with any liquid. Please do not use polishes, oils, cleaning fluids, solvents, detergents, or ammonia-based cleaners to clean your leather upholstery. Application of a leather conditioner is not required to maintain the original condi-
tion. NOTE:
If equipped with light colored leather, it tends to show any foreign material, dirt, and fabric dye transfer more so than darker colors. The leather is designed for easy cleaning, and FCA recom-
mends Mopar total care leather cleaner applied on a cloth to clean the leather seats as needed. CAUTION!
Do not use Alcohol and Alcohol-based and/or Ketone based cleaning products to clean leather seats, as damage to the seat may result. Glass Surfaces All glass surfaces should be cleaned on a regular basis with Mopar Glass Cleaner, or any commercial household-type glass cleaner. Never use an abrasive type cleaner. Use caution when cleaning the inside rear window equipped with electric defrosters or windows equipped with radio antennas. Do not use scrapers or other sharp instruments that may scratch the elements. When cleaning the rear view mirror, spray cleaner on the towel or cloth that you are using. Do not spray cleaner directly on the mirror. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 383 IDENTIFICATION DATA Vehicle Identification Number The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is on the left front corner of the instrument panel and is visible from outside of the vehicle through the windshield. Vehicle Identification Number NOTE:
It is illegal to remove or alter the VIN. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS 383 BRAKE SYSTEM Your vehicle is equipped with dual hydraulic brake systems. If either of the two hydraulic systems loses normal capability, the remaining system will still function. However, there will be some loss of overall braking effectiveness. You may notice increased pedal travel during appli-
cation, greater pedal force required to slow or stop, and potential activation of the Brake Warning Light. In the event power assist is lost for any reason
(i.e., repeated brake applications with the engine off) the brakes will still function. However, the effort required to brake the vehicle will be much greater than that required with the power system operating. WHEEL AND TIRE TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS Proper lug nut/bolt torque is very important to ensure that the wheel is properly mounted to the vehicle. Any time a wheel has been removed and reinstalled on the vehicle, the lug nuts/
bolts should be torqued using a properly cali-
brated torque wrench using a high quality six sided (hex) deep wall socket. Torque Specifications Lug Nut/Bolt Torque
**Lug Nut/
Bolt Size Lug Nut/Bolt Socket Size 100 Ft-Lbs
(135 Nm) M12 x 1.5 19 mm
**Use only authorized dealer recommended lug nuts/bolts and clean or remove any dirt or oil before tightening. Inspect the wheel mounting surface prior to mounting the tire and remove any corrosion or loose particles. 8 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 384 384 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Wheel Mounting Surface Tighten the lug nuts/bolts in a star pattern until each nut/bolt has been tightened twice. Ensure that the socket is fully engaged on the lug nut/
bolt (do not insert it halfway). FUEL REQUIREMENTS 3.6L Engine Torque Patterns After 25 miles (40 km) check the lug nut/bolt torque to be sure that all the lug nuts/bolts are properly seated against the wheel. WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not tighten the lug nuts/bolts fully until the vehicle has been lowered. Failure to follow this warning may result in personal injury. Do not use E-85 flex fuel or ethanol blends greater than 15% in this engine. These engines are designed to meet all emissions regulations and provide optimum fuel economy and perfor-
mance when using high quality unleaded Regular gasoline having a posted octane number of 87 as specified by the (R+M)/
2 method. The use of higher octane Premium gasoline is not required, as it will not provide any benefit over Regular gasoline in these engines. While operating on gasoline with an octane number of 87, hearing a light knocking sound from the engine is not a cause for concern. However, if the engine is heard making a heavy knocking sound, see your dealer immediately. Use of gasoline with an octane number lower than 87 can cause engine failure and may void or not be covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Poor quality gasoline can cause problems such as hard starting, stalling, and hesitations. If you experience these symptoms, try another brand of gasoline before considering service for the vehicle. Reformulated Gasoline Many areas of the country require the use of cleaner burning gasoline referred to as Refor-
mulated Gasoline. Reformulated gasoline contains oxygenates and are specifically blended to reduce vehicle emissions and improve air quality. The use of reformulated gasoline is recom-
mended. Properly blended reformulated gaso-
line will provide improved performance and durability of engine and fuel system compo-
nents. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 385 Materials Added To Fuel Gasoline/Oxygenate Blends Do Not Use E-85 In Non-Flex Fuel Vehicles Besides using unleaded gasoline with the proper octane rating, gasolines that contain detergents, corrosion and stability additives are recommended. Using gasolines that have these additives will help improve fuel economy, reduce emissions, and maintain vehicle perfor-
mance. Designated TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline contains a higher level of detergents to further aide in minimizing engine and fuel system deposits. When available, the usage of TOP TIER Detergent gasoline is recommended. Visit www.toptiergas.com for a list of TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline Retailers. Indiscriminate use of fuel system cleaning agents should be avoided. Many of these mate-
rials intended for gum and varnish removal may contain active solvents or similar ingredients. These can harm fuel system gasket and diaphragm materials. Some fuel suppliers blend unleaded gasoline with oxygenates such as ethanol. CAUTION!
DO NOT use E-85, gasoline containing methanol, or gasoline containing more than 15% ethanol (E-15). Use of these blends may result in starting and drivability problems, damage critical fuel system components, cause emissions to exceed the applicable standard, and/or cause the Malfunction Indicator Light to illuminate. Please observe pump labels as they should clearly communicate if a fuel contains greater than 15% ethanol (E-15). Problems that result from using gasoline containing more than 15% ethanol (E-15) or gasoline containing methanol are not the responsibility of the manufacturer and may void or not be covered under New Vehicle Limited Warranty. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS 385 Non-Flex Fuel Vehicles (FFV) are compatible with gasoline containing up to 15% ethanol
(E-15). Use of gasoline with higher ethanol content may void the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. If a Non-FFV vehicle is inadvertently fueled with E-85 fuel, the engine will have some or all of these symptoms:
Operate in a lean mode OBD II Malfunction Indicator Light on Poor engine performance Poor cold start and cold drivability Increased risk for fuel system component corrosion 8 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 386 386 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS CNG And LP Fuel System Modifications Fuel System Cautions Modifications that allow the engine to run on Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) or Liquid Propane (LP) may result in damage to the engine, emissions, and fuel system compo-
nents. Problems that result from running CNG or LP are not the responsibility of the manufac-
turer and may void or not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. MMT In Gasoline Methylcyclopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl
(MMT) is a manganese-containing metallic addi-
tive that is blended into some gasoline to increase octane. Gasoline blended with MMT provides no performance advantage beyond gasoline of the same octane number without MMT. Gasoline blended with MMT reduces spark plug life and reduces emissions system performance in some vehicles. The manufac-
turer recommends that gasoline without MMT be used in your vehicle. The MMT content of gasoline may not be indicated on the gasoline pump; therefore, you should ask your gasoline retailer whether the gasoline contains MMT. MMT is prohibited in Federal and California reformulated gasoline. CAUTION!
Follow these guidelines to maintain your vehicles performance:
The use of leaded gasoline is prohibited by Federal law. Using leaded gasoline can impair engine performance and damage the emissions control system. An out-of-tune engine or certain fuel or igni-
tion malfunctions can cause the catalytic converter to overheat. If you notice a pungent burning odor or some light smoke, your engine may be out of tune or malfunc-
tioning and may require immediate service. Contact an authorized dealer for service assistance. The use of fuel additives, which are now being sold as octane enhancers, is not recommended. Most of these products contain high concentrations of methanol. Fuel system damage or vehicle perfor-
mance problems resulting from the use of such fuels or additives is not the responsi-
bility of the manufacturer and may void or not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. NOTE:
Intentional tampering with the emissions control system can result in civil penalties being assessed against you. Carbon Monoxide Warnings WARNING!
Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases is deadly. Follow the precautions below to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning:
Do not inhale exhaust gases. They contain carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas, which can kill. Never run the engine in a closed area, such as a garage, and never sit in a parked vehicle with the engine running for an extended period. If the vehicle is stopped in an open area with the engine running for more than a short period, adjust the ventilation system to force fresh, outside air into the vehicle. Guard against carbon monoxide with proper maintenance. Have the exhaust system inspected every time the vehicle is raised. Have any abnormal conditions repaired promptly. Until repaired, drive with all side windows fully open. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 387 FLUID CAPACITIES Fuel (Approximate) 3.6L Engine Engine Oil With Filter 3.6L Engine (SAE 0W-20 , API Certified) Cooling System*

tronic device. Do not let young children use the system. Permanent hearing loss may occur if you play your music or the system at loud volumes. Exercise caution when setting the volume on the system. Keep drinks, rain and other sources of mois-
ture away from the system. Besides damage to the system, moisture can cause electric shocks as with any electronic device. NOTE:
Many features of this system are speed depen-
dent. For your own safety, it is not possible to use some of the touchscreen features while the vehicle is in motion. Exposure To Radio Frequency Radiation The internal wireless radio operates within guidelines found in radio frequency safety stan-
dards and recommendations, which reflect the consensus of the scientific community. The radio manufacturer believes the internal wire-
less radio is safe for use by consumers. The level of energy emitted is far less than the elec-
tromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices such as mobile phones. However, the use of wireless radios may be restricted in some situa-
tions or environments, such as aboard airplanes. If you are unsure of restrictions, you are encouraged to ask for authorization before turning on the wireless radio. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 433 Care And Maintenance Touchscreen Do not press the touchscreen with any hard or sharp objects (pen, USB stick, jewelry, etc.), which could scratch the touchscreen surface!

For example, if using Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, the connected device will be the one that will be used to place hands-free phone calls or send hands-free text messages. However, another device can also be paired to the Uconnect system, via Bluetooth, as an audio source, so the passenger can stream music. NOTE:
If using a Samsung device, every time it is connected to a media USB, and there is another device plugged in, you will need to manually change the configuration of the USB connection in order for the Samsung device to send data. The Uconnect 4 built-in media functions will be unavailable when Android Auto/Apple CarPlay are in use.

Your phone must be capable of SMS messaging via Bluetooth for messaging features to work properly. Your mobile phones audio is transmitted through your vehicles audio system; the system automatically mutes your radio when using the Uconnect Phone. Visit UconnectPhone.com Uconnect Phone allows you to transfer calls between the system and your mobile phone as you enter or exit your vehicle and enables you to mute the system's microphone for private conversation. WARNING!
ALWAYS drive safely with your hands on the steering wheel. You have full responsibility and assume all risks related to the use of the Uconnect features and applications in this vehicle. Only use Uconnect when it is safe to do so. Failure to do so may result in an accident involving serious injury or death. 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 451 The Uconnect Phone is driven through your Bluetooth Hands-Free Profile mobile phone. Uconnect features Bluetooth technology - the global standard that enables different elec-
tronic devices to connect to each other without wires or a docking station, so Uconnect Phone works no matter where you stow your mobile phone (be it your purse, pocket, or briefcase), as long as your phone is turned on and has been paired to the vehicle's Uconnect Phone. The Uconnect Phone allows up to 10 mobile phones or audio devices to be linked to the system. Only one linked (or paired) mobile phone and one audio device can be used with the system at a time. Uconnect Phone Button The Uconnect Phone button on your steering wheel is used to get into the phone mode and make calls, show recent, incoming, outgoing calls, view phonebook etc. Uconnect Voice Command Button The Uconnect Voice Command button on your steering wheel is only used for barge in and when you are already in a call and you want to send tones or make another call. The button on your steering wheel is also used to access the Voice Commands for the Uconnect Voice Command features if your vehicle is equipped. Please see the Uconnect Voice Command section for direction on how to use the button. The Uconnect Phone is fully integrated with the vehicle's audio system. The volume of the Uconnect Phone can be adjusted either from the radio volume control knob or from the steering wheel radio control. Phone Operation Operation Voice commands can be used to operate the Uconnect Phone and to navigate through the Uconnect Phone menu structure. Voice commands are required after most Uconnect Phone prompts. There are two general methods for how Voice Command works:
1. Say compound commands like Call John Smith mobile. 2. Say the individual commands and allow the system to guide you to complete the task. MULTIMEDIA 451 You will be prompted for a specific command and then guided through the available options. Prior to giving a voice command, one must wait for the beep, which follows the Listen prompt or another prompt. For certain operations, compound commands can be used. For example, instead of saying Call and then John Smith and then mobile, the following compound command can be said: Call John Smith mobile. For each feature explanation in this section, only the compound command form of the voice command is given. You can also break the commands into parts and say each part of the command when you are asked for it. For example, you can use the compound command form voice command Search for John Smith, or you can break the compound command form into two voice commands:
Search Contact and when asked John Smith. Please remember, the Uconnect Phone works best when you talk in a normal conversational tone, as if speaking to someone sitting a few feet/meters away from you. 9 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 452 452 MULTIMEDIA Natural Speech Your Uconnect Phone Voice system uses a Natural Language Voice Recognition (VR) engine. Natural speech allows the user to speak commands in phrases or complete sentences. The system filters out certain non-word utter-
ances and sounds such as ah and eh. The system handles fill-in words such as I would like to. The system handles multiple inputs in the same phrase or sentence such as make a phone call and to Kelly Smith. For multiple inputs in the same phrase or sentence, the system iden-
tifies the topic or context and provides the asso-
ciated follow-up prompt such as Who do you want to call? in the case where a phone call was requested but the specific name was not recognized. The system utilizes continuous dialog; when the system requires more information from the user it will ask a question to which the user can respond without pushing the Voice Command button on your steering wheel. Help Command If you need assistance at any prompt, or if you want to know your options at any prompt, say Help following the beep. To activate the Uconnect Phone from idle, simply push the Phone button (if active) on your steering wheel and say a command or say help. All Uconnect Phone sessions begin with a push of the VR button or the Phone button (if active) on the radio control head. Cancel Command At any prompt, after the beep, you can say Cancel and you will be returned to the main menu. You can also push the VR button or Phone button (if active) on your steering wheel when the system is listening for a command and be returned to the main or previous menu.

These region codes must match in order for the disc to play. If the region code for the BD or DVD disc does not match the region code for the Blu-ray Disc player, the disc will not play. USA and Canada are set for BD : code A / DVD : code 1. Recorded Discs The Blu-ray Disc player will play CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in CD-Audio or Video-CD format, or as a CD-ROM containing MP3, AAC or WMA files. The player will also play DVD-Video content recorded to a DVD-R or DVD-RW disc. DVD-ROM discs (either pressed or recorded) are not supported. Compressed audio and DivX recorded on DVD is playable. If you record a disc using a personal computer, there may be cases where the Blu-ray Disc player may not be able to play some or the entire disc, even if it is recorded in a compatible format and is playable on other players. To help avoid playback problems, use the following guidelines when recording discs. Open sessions are ignored. Only sessions that are closed are playable. For multi-session CDs that contain only multiple CD-Audio sessions, the player will renumber the tracks so each track number is unique. For CD Data (or CD-ROM) discs, always use the ISO-9660 (Level 1 or Level 2), Joliet, or Romeo format. Other formats (such as HFS, or others) are not supported. The player recognizes a maximum of 2000 files and 255 folders (includes the ROOT folder) per CD-R and CD-RW disc. Mixed media recordable DVD formats will only play the Video_TS portion of the disc. If you are still having trouble writing a disc that is playable in the Blu-ray Disc player, check with the disc recording software publisher for more information about burning playable discs. The recommended method for labeling record-
able discs (CD-R, CD-RW, and DVD-R) is with a permanent marker. Do not use adhesive labels as they may separate from the disc, become stuck, and cause permanent damage to the DVD player. MULTIMEDIA 479 Compressed Audio Files (MP3, WMA and AAC) The Blu-ray Disc player is capable of playing MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3), WMA (Windows Media Audio) files and AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) from a CD Data disc (usually a CD-R or CD-RW) or DVD Data disc (usually a DVD-R or DVD-RW). The Blu-ray Disc player always uses the file extension to determine the audio format, so MP3 files must always end with the extension
.mp3 or .MP3 and WMA files must always end with the extension .wma or .WMA and AAC files must always end with the exten-
sion and .aac or .AAC or m4a. To prevent incorrect playback, do not use these extensions for any other types of files. For MP3 files, ID3v1, ID3v2 tag data (such as artist name, track title, album, etc.) are supported. Any file that is copy protected (such as those downloaded from many online music stores) will not play. The Blu-ray player will auto-
matically skip the file and begin playing the next available file. 9 20_RU_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 480 480 MULTIMEDIA Other compression formats such as MP3 Pro, Ogg Vorbis, and ATRAC3 will not play. The Blu-ray player will automatically skip the file and begin playing the next available file. If you are creating your own files, the recom-
mended fixed bit rate for MP3 files is between 32 and 320Kbps and the recom-
mended fixed bit rate for WMA files is between 16 and 192Kbps. Variable bit rates are also supported. For both formats, the recommended sample rate is either 44.1kHz or 48kHz. To change the current file, use the remote control Seek Forward or Seek Back buttons to return to the start of the current or previous file. AAC (MPEG-4 AAC, Low Complexity Profile) support. AAC HE v1 (AAC High Efficiency v1 aka. AAC/MPEG4v2 AAC+) support. HE-AAC v1, v2 support. Disc Errors If the Blu-ray Disc player is unable to read the disc, a "Disc Error" message is displayed on the rear screen and Radio displays. A dirty, damaged, or incompatible disc format are all potential causes for a "Disc Error" message. If a disc has a damaged track which results in audible or visible errors that persists for two seconds, the Blu-ray Disc player will attempt to continue playing the disc by skipping forward one to three seconds at a time. If the end of the disc is reached, the Blu-ray Disc player will return to the beginning of the disc and attempt to play the start of the first track. The Blu-ray Disc player may shut down during extremely hot conditions, such as when the vehicles interior temperature is above 140F
(60.0C). When this occurs, the player will display "High Temp" and will shut off the Rear Seat displays until a safe temperature is reached. This shutdown is necessary to protect the optics of the Blu-ray Disc player.

less radio is far below the FCC and IC radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the wireless radio will be used in such a manner that the radio is 8 in (20 cm) or further from the human body. The internal wireless radio operates within guidelines found in radio frequency safety stan-
dards and recommendations, which reflect the consensus of the scientific community. The radio manufacturer believes the internal wireless radio is safe for use by consumers. The level of energy emitted is far less than the elec-
tromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices such as mobile phones. However, the use of wireless radios may be restricted in some situa-
tions or environments, such as aboard airplanes. If you are unsure of restrictions, you are encouraged to ask for authorization before turning on the wireless radio. The following regulatory statement applies to all Radio Frequency (RF) devices equipped in this vehicle:

Take your warranty folder. All work to be performed may not be covered by the warranty. Discuss addi-
tional charges with the service manager. Keep a maintenance log of your vehicle's service history. This can often provide a clue to the current problem. Prepare A List Make a written list of your vehicle's problems or the specific work you want done. If you've had an accident or work done that is not on your maintenance log, let the service advisor know. CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE 493 Be Reasonable With Requests If you list a number of items and you must have your vehicle by the end of the day, discuss the situation with the service advisor and list the items in order of priority. At many authorized dealers, you may obtain a rental vehicle at a minimal daily charge. If you need a rental, it is advisable to make these arrangements when you call for an appointment. IF YOU NEED ASSISTANCE The manufacturer and its authorized dealers are vitally interested in your satisfaction. We want you to be happy with our products and services. Warranty service must be done by an autho-
rized dealer. We strongly recommend that you take the vehicle to an authorized dealer. They know your vehicle the best, and are most concerned that you get prompt and high quality service. The manufacturer's authorized dealers have the facilities, factory-trained technicians, special tools, and the latest information to ensure the vehicle is fixed correctly and in a timely manner. This is why you should always talk to an autho-
rized dealer service manager first. Most matters can be resolved with this process. If for some reason you are still not satisfied, talk to the general manager or owner of the authorized dealer. They want to know if you need assistance. If an authorized dealer is unable to resolve the concern, you may contact the manufac-
turer's customer center. Any communication to the manufacturer's customer center should include the following information:
