A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS Y our vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. This system consists of a Key Fob with Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and a W ireless Ignition Node (WIN) with integral ignition switch. Y ou can insert the Key Fob into the ignition switch with either side up.
Key Fob The Key Fob operates the ignition switch. It also contains the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and an emergency key , which stores in the rear of the Key Fob. The emergency key allows for entry into the vehicle should the battery in the vehicle or the RKE transmitter go dead.
NOTE: • If you try to remove the Key Fob before you place the shift lever in P ARK, it may become trapped tempo- rarily in the ignition switch. If this occurs, rotate the key to the right slightly , then remove the Key Fob as described.
Key-In-Ignition Reminder Opening the driver’s door when the Key Fob is in the ignition and the ignition switch position is OFF or ACC, sounds a signal to remind you to remove the Key Fob. NOTE: The Key-In-Ignition reminder only sounds when the Key Fob is placed in the OFF or ACC ignition position.
NOTE: The Sentry Key 威 Immobilizer system is not compatible with aftermarket remote starting systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting problems and loss of security protection. All of the Key Fobs provided with your new vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle electronics.

cancel the arming. If the V ehicle Security Alarm success- fully arms, the V ehicle Security Light will flash at a slower rate to indicate the alarm is set. T o Disarm the System T o disarm the V ehicle Security Alarm, you will need to press the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter or turn the ignition key to the ON position.
NOTE: Inserting the Key Fob with RKE transmitter into the ignition switch disables all buttons on that RKE transmitter; however , the buttons on the remaining RKE transmitters will continue to work. Driving at speeds 5 mph (8 km/h) and above disables all RKE transmitter buttons for all RKE transmitters.
Flash Lamps with Remote Key Lock This feature will cause the turn signal lamps to flash when the doors are locked or unlocked with the RKE transmitter .
T o Release the Liftgate Flipper Glass Press the FLIPPER GLASS/LIFTGA TE RELEASE button two times (the second press within five seconds of the first press) to open liftgate flipper glass. W ARNING! Driving with the flipper glass open can allow poi- sonous exhaust gases into your vehicle.
T ransmitter Battery Replacement The recommended replacement battery is one CR2032 battery . NOTE: • Perchlorate Material — special handling may apply . See www .dtsc.ca.gov/hazar douswaste/perchlorate • Do not touch the battery terminals that are on the back housing or the printed circuit board.
3. Reposition the access door panel over the battery opening and snap into place. General Information This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules and RSS 210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following conditions: • This device may not cause harmful interference.
How to Use Remote Start All of the following conditions must be met before the engine will remote start: • Shift lever in P ARK • Doors closed • Hood closed • Liftgate closed • Hazard switch.
NOTE: • If an engine fault is present the vehicle will start and then shut down 10 seconds later . • The park lamps will turn on and remain on during Remote Start mode. • For security , power window and power sunroof op- eration (if equipped) are disabled when the vehicle is in the Remote Start mode.
DOOR LOCKS Manual Door Locks Use the manual door lock plunger to lock the doors from inside the vehicle. If the plunger is down when the door is closed, the door will lock. Therefor e, make sur e the key is not inside the vehicle before closing the door .
If you press the door lock switch while the Key Fob is in the ignition switch and the driver’s door is open, the doors will not lock. The rear doors cannot be opened from inside the vehicle until you pull up the lock plungers.
WINDOWS Power Windows The power window controls are located on the driver’s door trim panel. There is a single switch on the front passenger door/rear doors which operates the front passenger/rear passenger door windows. The window controls will operate only when the ignition switch is in the ON or ACCESSOR Y position.
Auto-Down Both the driver and front passenger window switches have an “Auto-Down” feature. Press the window switch past the first detent, release, and the window will go down automatically . T o cancel the “Auto-Down” move- ment, operate the switch in either the up or down direction and release the switch.
Resetting the Auto Up Feature Should the Auto Up feature stop working, the window probably needs to be reset. T o reset Auto Up: Pull the window switch up and close the window com- pletely , then pull and hold the switch for one second.
Wind Buffeting W ind buffeting can be described as the perception of pressur e on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the ears. Y our vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open or partially open positions.
Liftgate Flipper Glass The liftgate flipper glass is also unlocked when the liftgate is unlocked. T o open the flipper glass, push up on the window switch located on the liftgate. W ARNING! T o avoid injury , stand back when opening. Glass may automatically rise.
W ARNING! Driving with the flipper glass open can allow poi- sonous exhaust gases into your vehicle. Y ou and your passengers could be injured by these fumes.
Please pay close attention to the information in this section. It tells you how to use your restraint system properly , to keep you and your passengers as safe as possible. W ARNING! In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not properly buckled up.
W ARNING! • W earing a seat belt incorrectly is dangerous. Seat belts are designed to go around the large bones of your body . These are the strongest parts of your body and can take the forces of a collision the best. W earing your belt in the wrong place could make your injuries in a collision much worse.
2. The seat belt latch plate is above the back of your seat. Grasp the latch plate and pull out the belt. Slide the latch plate up the webbing as far as necessary to make the belt go around your lap. 3. When the belt is long enough to fit, insert the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.
W ARNING! • A 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 belt into the buckle nearest you. • A belt that is too loose will not protect you as well.
4. Position the lap belt across your thighs, below your abdomen. T o remove slack in the lap portion, pull up a bit on the shoulder belt. T o loosen the lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on the lap belt. A snug belt reduces the risk of sliding under the belt in a collision.
W ARNING! 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.
Energy Management Feature This vehicle has a safety belt system with an Energy Management featur e in the front seating positions to help further reduce the risk of injury in the event of a head-on collision. This safety belt system has a retractor assembly that is designed to release webbing in a controlled manner .
3. Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts, you will hear a clicking sound. This indicates the safety belt is now in the Automatic Locking Mode.
BeltAlert 威 will be reactivated if the driver’s seat belt is unbuckled for more than 10 seconds and the vehicle speed is greater than 5 mph (8 km/h).
Seat Belts and Pregnant Women W e recommend that pregnant women use the seat belts throughout their pregnancy . Keeping the mother safe is the best way to keep the baby safe. Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt across the thighs and as snug across the hips as possible.
Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS) — Airbags This vehicle has airbags for both the driver and front passenger as a supplement to the seat belt restraint systems. The driver’s front airbag is mounted in the center of the steering wheel. The passenger’s front airbag is mounted in the instrument panel, above the glove compartment.
The Advanced Front Airbags have a multistage inflator design. This allows the airbag to have differ ent rates of inflation based on the severity and type of collision. This vehicle may also be equipped with Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable Curtains (SABIC) to protect the driver , front, and rear passengers sitting next to a win- dow .
Advanced Front Airbag Features The Advanced Fr ont Airbag system has multistage driver and fr ont passenger airbags. 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 impact sensors at the front of the car .
Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable Curtain (SABIC) — If Equipped SABIC airbags offer side-impact and vehicle rollover protection to front and rear seat outboard occupants in addition to that provided by the body structure.
The system includes sensors adjacent to both front and rear seat occupants that are calibrated to deploy the SABIC airbags during impacts that require airbag occu- pant protection.
W ARNING! Infants in rear-facing child restraints should NEVER ride in the front seat of a vehicle with a passenger front airbag. An airbag deployment can cause severe injury or death to infants in that position.
W ARNING! • Relying on the airbags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The airbags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly . In some collisions, the airbags won’t deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you have airbags.
The Advanced Fr ont Airbags will not deploy in all frontal collisions, including some that may produce substantial vehicle damage — for example, some pole collisions, truck underrides, and angle of fset collisions.
It also includes diagnostics that will illuminate the instru- ment cluster Airbag W arning Light if a malfunction is noted. The diagnostics also recor d the nature of the malfunction. W ARNING! Ignoring the Airbag W arning Light in your instru- ment panel could mean you won’t have the airbags to protect you in a collision.
deploy the SABIC airbags, depending on severity and type of collision. In these events, the ORC will deploy the SABIC only on the impact side of the vehicle. A quantity of non-toxic gas is generated to inflate the side curtain airbag. The inflating side curtain airbag pushes the outside edge of the headliner out of the way and covers the window .
• T urn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power or until the ignition key is removed. • Unlock the doors automatically . If a Deployment Occurs The front airbags are designed to deflate immediately after deployment.
W ARNING! Deployed airbags and seat belt pretensioners cannot protect you in another collision. Have the airbags, seat belt pretensioners, and the front passenger seat belt retractor assembly replaced by an authorized dealer as soon as possible. Also, have the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) system serviced as well.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Do not attempt to modify any part of your ad- vanced airbag system. The airbag may inflate accidentally or may not function properly if modi- fications are made. T ake your vehicle to an autho- rized dealer for any advanced airbag system ser- vice.
located on the inside of the fuse block cover for the proper airbag fuses. See your authorized dealer if the fuse is good. Event Data Recorder (EDR) In the event of an accident, your vehicle is design.
accessing the electronic data stored, unless order ed to download data by a court with legal jurisdiction (i.e., pursuant to a warrant). A copy of the data will be provided to the custodial entity upon request.
Child Restraints Everyone in your vehicle needs to be buckled up all the time, including babies and children. Every state in the United States, and all Canadian provinces, requir e that small childr en ride in pr oper r estraint systems. This is the law , and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it.
• The infant carrier is only used rearwar d-facing in the vehicle. It is recommended for children who weigh up to about 20 lbs (9 kg). Convertible child seats often have a higher weight limit in the.
Standards. Chrysler Gr oup LLC also recommends that you try a child restraint in the vehicle seats where you will use it before you buy it. • The restraint must be appropriate for your child’s weight and height. Check the label on the restraint for weight and height limits.
• If the belt still cannot be tightened, or if pulling and pushing on the restraint loosens the belt, disconnect the latch plate from the buckle, turn the buckle around, and insert the latch plate into the buckle again. If you still cannot make the child restraint secure, try a different seating position.
Children T oo 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 lap/shoulder belt in a rear seat.
strap kits or retr o-fit kits. Y ou ar e ur ged to take advantage of all the available attachments provided with your child restraint in any vehicle. NOTE: When using the LA TCH attaching system to install a child restraint, please ensure that all seat belts not being used for occupant r estraints ar e stowed and out of reach of children.
The rear seat lower anchorages are round bars, located at the rear of the seat cushion where it meets the seatback, and are just visible when you lean into the rear seat to install the child restraint. Y ou will easily feel them if you run your finger along the intersection of the seatback and seat cushion surfaces.
means of adjusting the tension in the strap. Forward- facing toddler restraints and some rear -facing infant restraints will also be equipped with a tether strap, a hook for attachment to the tether strap anchorage and a means of adjusting the tension of the strap.
For seat belts having an Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR), pull the belt from the retractor until there is enough allowance to pass it through the child restraint and slide the latch plate into the buckle. Then, pull the belt until it is fully extended fr om the r etractor .
W ARNING! Always remove the subwoofer from the vehicle whenever the tether anchors behind the subwoofer are required for proper installation of a child re- straining device. In the event of an accident, or under severe vehicle maneuvers, leaving the subwoofer unsecured in the vehicle could result in serious or fatal injury to anyone in the vehicle.
W ARNING! An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly behind the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap. T ransporting Pets Airbags deploying in the front seat could harm your pet.
A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of operation. This should be considered a normal part of the break-in and not inter- preted as an indication of difficulty . SAFETY TIPS T ransporting Passengers NEVER TRANSPORT P ASSENGERS IN THE CARGO AREA.
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. 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.
Airbag W arning Light The light should come on and remain on for six to eight seconds as a bulb check when the ignition switch is first turned ON. If the light is not lit during starting, see your authorized dealer . If the light stays on, flickers, or comes on while driving, have the system checked by an autho- rized dealer .

W ARNING! In an accident, a loose cargo cover in the vehicle could cause injury . It could fly around in a sudden stop and strike someone in the vehicle. Do not store the cargo cover on the cargo floor or in the passenger compartment. Remove the cover from the vehicle when taken from its mounting.
W ARNING! • T o help protect against personal injury , passengers should not be seated in the rear cargo area. The rear cargo space is intended for load carrying purposes only , not for passengers, who should sit in seats and use seat belts. • Cargo tie-down hooks are not safe anchors for a child seat tether strap.
Cargo Load Floor The panel in the load floor is reversible for added utility . One side is carpeted and the other side features a plastic lined tray which holds a variety of items.
REAR WINDOW FEA TURES Rear Window Wiper/Washer The rear wiper/washer is controlled by a rotary switch located on the control lever . The control lever is located on the right side of the steering column. Rotate the switch upward to the “On” position to activate the rear wiper .
If the liftgate flipper glass is open, connection to the rear window wiper is interr upted preventing activation of the rear wiper blade. When the liftgate flipper glass is closed, the rear wiper switch, or the ignition switch, needs to be turned OFF and ON to restart the rear wiper .
ROOF LUGGAGE RACK — IF EQUIPPED The crossbars and siderails are designed to carry the weight on vehicles equipped with a luggage rack. The load must not exceed 150 lbs (68 kg), and should be uniformly distributed over the luggage rack crossbars.
• The grab handles on the back of the vehicle (if equipped) are not to be used as a towing feature. CAUTION! • T o prevent damage to the roof of your vehicle, DO NOT carry any loads on the roof rack without the crossbars installed. The load should be secured and placed on top of the crossbars, not directly on the roof.
W ARNING! Cargo must be securely tied before driving your vehicle. Improperly secured loads can fly off the vehicle, particularly at high speeds, resulting in per- sonal injury or property damage. Follow the roof rack cautions when carrying cargo on your roof rack.

ST ARTING PROCEDURES Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust the inside and outside mirrors, fasten your seat belt, and if present, instruct all other occupants to buckle their seat belts. W ARNING! • Never leave children alone in a vehicle.
Extreme Cold Weather (Below ⫺ 20°F or ⫺ 29°C) T o ensure reliable starting at these temperatures, use of an externally powered electric engine block heater (avail- able from your authorized dealer) is recommended.
release it as soon as the starter engages. The starter motor will disengage automatically in 10 seconds. Once this occurs, release the accelerator pedal, turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position, wait 10 to 15 seconds, then repeat the “Normal Starting” procedure.
AUTOMA TIC TRANSMISSION CAUTION! Damage to the transmission may occur if the follow- ing precautions are not observed: • Shift into P ARK only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. • Shift into or out of REVERSE only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop and the engine is at idle speed.
Brake/T ransmission Shift Interlock System This vehicle is equipped with a Brake T ransmission Shift Interlock System (BTSI) that holds the shift lever in the P ARK position when the ignition switch is in the LOCK position.
6. Move the shift lever into the NEUTRAL position. 7. The vehicle may then be started in NEUTRAL. Have your vehicle inspected by your local authorized dealer if the shift lock manual override has been used. Five–Speed Automatic T ransmission The electr onically-controlled transmission provides a precise shift schedule.
W ARNING! (Continued) • It is dangerous to move the shift lever out of P ARK or NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly on the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate quickly forward or in reverse. Y ou could lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or something.
shifts the transmission into ERS 3 (third gear), the trans- mission will never shift above third gear , but can shift down to 2 (second) or 1 (first), when needed. NOTE: • If you pull and hold (not tap) the shift lever to the left (-), the transmission will downshift to the lowest gear that can be attained without overrevving the engine.

• transmission has reached normal operating temperature. NOTE: If the vehicle is started in extremely cold tem- peratures, the transmission may not shift into Overdrive and will automatically select the most desirable gear for operation at this temperature.
performance and reduce the potential for transmission overheating or failure due to excessive shifting. When operating in TOW/HAUL mode, the transmission will shift into direct gear and Overdrive will be enabled under steady cruise conditions.
3. T urn the engine off, and be sure to turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position. 4. W ait approximately 10 seconds, then restart the en- gine. 5. Move the shift lever to the desired gear range. If the problem is no longer detected, the transmission will return to normal operation.
the transmission may not shift into the top Overdrive gear (normal fifth gear) until the transmission fluid and engine coolant are warm. • If the vehicle has not been driven in several days, the first few seconds of operation after shifting the trans- mission into gear may seem sluggish.
CAUTION! When “rocking” a stuck vehicle by moving between “First” and REVERSE, do not spin the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/h) or drivetrain damage may result.
When additional traction is required, the 4WD LOW position can be used to lock the front and r ear driveshafts together and force the front and rear wheels to rotate at the same speed. The 4WD LOW position is intended for loose, slippery road surfaces only .
Shift Positions For additional information on the appr opriate use of each transfer case mode position, see the information below: 4WD HI This range is used on surfaces such as ice, snow , gravel, sand, and dry hard pavement. NEUTRAL This range disengages both the front and r ear driveshafts from the powertrain.
NOTE: If shift conditions/interlocks are not met, or a transfer case motor temperature protection condition exists, a “CHECK SHIFT PROCEDURES” message will flash from the Electronic V ehicle Information Center (EVIC).
• Shifting into or out of 4WD LOW is possible with the vehicle completely stopped; however , difficulty may occur due to the mating clutch teeth not being prop- erly aligned. Several attempts may be requir ed for clutch teeth alignment and shift completion to occur .
NOTE: If shift conditions/interlocks are not met, a “CHECK SHIFT PROCEDURES” message will flash from the Electronic V ehicle Information Center (EVIC). Refer to “Electronic V ehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in “Understanding Y our Instrument Panel” for further information.

entering. Proceed with caution and maintain a steady controlled speed less than 5 mph (8 km/h) in deep water to minimize wave effects. Flowing W ater If the water is swift flowing and rising (as in storm run-of f), avoid crossing until the water level recedes and/or the flow rate is reduced.
A void abrupt downshifts on icy or slippery roads, be- cause engine braking may cause skidding and loss of control. Hill Climbing NOTE: Before attempting to climb a hill, determine the conditions at the crest and/or on the other side. Before climbing a steep hill, shift the transmission to a lower gear and shift the transfer case to 4WD LOW .
T raction Downhill Shift the transmission into a low gear , and the transfer case into 4WD LOW range. Let the vehicle go slowly down the hill with all four wheels turning against engine compression drag. This will permit you to control the vehicle speed and direction.
W ARNING! Abrasive material in any part of the brakes may cause excessive wear or unpredictable braking. Y ou might not have full braking power when you need it to prevent an accident. If you have been operating your vehicle in dirty conditions, get your brakes checked and cleaned as necessary .
W ARNING! Continued operation with reduced power steering assist could pose a safety risk to yourself and others. Service should be obtained as soon as possible. CAUTION! Prolonged operation of the steering system at the end of the steering wheel travel will increase the steering fluid temperature and it should be avoided when possible.
Checking the power steering fluid level at a defined service interval is not required. The fluid should only be checked if a leak is suspected, abnormal noises are apparent, and/or the system is not functioning as antici- pated. Coordinate inspection efforts through an autho- rized dealer .
The parking brake lever is located in the center console. T o apply the parking brake, pull the lever up as firmly as possible. T o release the parking brake, pull the lever up slightly , press the center button, then lower the lever completely .
W ARNING! • Never use the P ARK position as a substitute for the parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement and possible injury or damage. • Never leave children alone in a vehicle. Leaving unattended children in a vehicle is dangerous for a number of reasons.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) is designed to aid the driver in maintaining vehicle control under adverse braking conditions. The system operates with a separate computer to modulate hydraulic pressure, to prevent wheel lock-up and help avoid skidding on slippery surfaces.
W ARNING! (Continued) • The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws of phys- ics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase braking or steering efficiency beyond that af- forded by the condition of the vehicle brakes and tires or the traction afforded.
• Engines may idle at higher speeds during warm-up, which could cause rear wheels to spin and result in loss of vehicle control. Be especially careful while driving on slippery roads, in close-quarter maneuver- ing, parking, or stopping. • Do not drive too fast for road conditions, especially when roads are wet or slushy .
W ARNING! The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. The ABS cannot prevent accidents, including those re- sulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning.
benefit of the system, you must apply continuous brak- ing pressur e during the stopping 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.
NOTE: Anytime the ESP system is in the “Full Off” mode, ERM is disabled. Refer to “Electronic Stability Program (ESP)” for a complete explanation of the avail- able ESP modes. W ARNING! Many factors, such as vehicle loading, road condi- tions and driving conditions, influence the chance that wheel lift or rollover may occur .
• Understeer - when the vehicle is turning less than appropriate for the steering wheel position. The “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” located in the instrument cluster will start to flash as soon as the tires lose traction and the ESP system becomes active.
High Range (Four-Wheel Drive Models) or T wo-Wheel Drive Models On This is the normal operating mode for ESP in 4WD HIGH range and in two-wheel drive vehicles. Whenever the vehicle is started or the transfer case (if equipped) is shifted from 4WD LOW range or NEUTRAL back to 4WD HIGH range, the ESP system will be in this “On” mode.
NOTE: T o improve the vehicle’s traction when driving with snow chains, or starting off in deep snow , sand, or gravel, it may be desirable to switch to the “Partial Off” mode by pressing the “ESP OFF” switch.

W ARNING! W ith the ESP switched off, the enhanced vehicle stability offered by ESP and ERM are unavailable. In an emergency evasive maneuver , the ESP and ERM systems will not engage to assist in maintaining stability . The “Full Off” mode is intended for off- road use only .
period of time after the driver takes their foot off of the brake pedal. If the driver does not apply the throttle during this short period of time, the system will release brake pr essur e and the vehicle will r oll down the hill.
W ARNING! • If you use a trailer brake controller with your trailer , your trailer brakes may be activated and deactivated with the brake switch. If so, when the brake pedal is released, there may not be enough brake pressure to hold the vehicle and trailer on a hill and this could cause a collision with another vehicle or object behind you.
Hill Descent Control (HDC) – Four-Wheel Drive Models With NV245 T wo–Speed T ransfer Case Only HDC maintains vehicle speed while descending hills during off-road driving situations and is available in 4WD LOW range only . T o enable HDC (transfer case must be in 4WD LOW range), press the HDC switch.
When HDC is properly enabled, the message “HILL DESCENT CONTROL” will appear in the EVIC and the light in the switch will be illuminated. HDC will auto- matically apply the brakes to control downhill speed when necessary . HDC has the capability to sense terrain and will only activate when the vehicle is descending a hill.
HDC is intended for low speed off-road driving only . At vehicle speeds above 30 mph (48 km/h), HDC will no longer function. When the vehicle speed drops below 30 mph (48 km/h), HDC function will automatically resume and the vehicle speed will r eturn to the chosen set speed.
NOTE: • The “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” and the “ESP/BAS W arning Light” come on momentarily each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position. • Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the ESP System will be ON even if it was previously turned off.
NOTE: • P (Passenger) - Metric tire sizing is based on U.S. design standards. P-Metric tires have the letter “P” molded into the sidewall preceding the size designa- tion. Example: P215/65R15 95H. • European-Metric tire sizing is based on European design standards.

W ARNING! 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.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Unequal tire pressures from one side of the ve- hicle to the other can cause the vehicle to drift to the right or left. • Always drive with each tire inflated to the recom- mended cold tire inflation pressure. Economy Improper inflation pressur es can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the tire tread.
CAUTION! After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure, al- ways reinstall the valve stem cap. This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage it. Inflation pressures specified on the placard are always cold tire inflation pressur e.
Tire Pressures For High Speed Operation The manufacturer advocates driving at safe speeds within posted speed limits. Where speed limits or condi- tions are such that the vehicle can be driven at high speeds, maintaining correct tire inflation pressure is very important.
W ARNING! T emporary use spare tires are for emergency use only . W ith these tires, do not drive more than 50 mph (80 km/h). T emporary use spare tires have limited tread life. When the tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the temporary use spare tire needs to be replaced.
W ARNING! Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces gener- ated by excessive wheel speeds may cause tire dam- age or failure. A tire could explode and injure some- one. Do not spin your vehicle’s wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) when you are stuck, and do not let anyone near a spinning wheel no matter what the speed.
Life of Tire The service life of a tire is dependent upon various factors including but not limited to: • Driving style • T ire pressur e • Distance driven W ARNING! T ires and the spare tire should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread.
W ARNING! • Do not use a tire, wheel size or rating other than that specified for your vehicle. Some combinations of unapproved tires and wheels may change sus- pension dimensions and performance characteris- tics, resulting in changes to steering, handling, and braking of your vehicle.
• Do not install tire chains or traction devices on ve- hicles with larger than P235/65R17 tir es. T ires lar ger than this may not provide sufficient body clearance with chains or other traction devices. • Use SAE class “S” tire chains or traction devices only .
The suggested rotation method is the “forward-cr oss” shown in the following diagram. TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM (TPMS) The T ire Pressur e Monitoring System (TPMS) will warn the driver of a low tire pressure based on the vehicle recommended cold tire pressur e.
The TPMS will continue to warn the driver of low tire pressur e as long as the condition exists, and will not turn off until the tire pressure is at or above recommended cold tir e pressur e.
CAUTION! • The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures 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.
• Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire pressur e, and the TPMS will monitor the actual tire pressure in the tire. Base System The T ir e Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) uses wireless technology with wheel rim-mounted electr onic sensors to monitor tire pressur e levels.

Materials Added T o Fuel All gasoline sold in the United States is requir ed to contain effective detergent additives. Use of additional detergents or other additives is not needed under normal conditions and would result in additional cost. Therefor e, you should not have to add anything to the fuel.
Carbon Monoxide W arnings W ARNING! 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.
ADDING FUEL Fuel Filler Cap (Gas Cap) The gas cap is located behind the fuel filler door , on the driver’s side of the vehicle. If the gas cap is lost or damaged, be sur e the r eplacement cap is for use with this vehicle. CAUTION! • Damage to the fuel system or emission control system could result from using an improper fuel cap (gas cap).
W ARNING! • Never have any smoking materials lit in or near the vehicle when the gas cap is removed or the tank filled. • Never add fuel when the engine is running. This is in violation of most state and federal fire regula- tions and will cause the malfunction indicator light to turn on.

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 affect on the way your vehicle steers and handles, and the way the brakes operate.
Gross T railer W eight (GTW) The GTW is the weight of the trailer plus the weight of all cargo, consumables and equipment (permanent or tem- porary) 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.
W eight-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 kind of hitches are the most popular on the market today and they are commonly used to tow small- and medium- sized trailers.

NOTE: Remember that everything put into or on the trailer adds to the load on your vehicle. Also, additional factory-installed options, or authorized dealer-installed options, must be considered as part of the total load on your vehicle.
W ARNING! (Continued) • When hauling cargo or towing a trailer , do not overload your vehicle or trailer . Overloading can cause a loss of control, poor performance or dam- age to brakes, axle, engine, transmission, steering, suspension, chassis structure or tires.
T owing Requirements – T ires − Do not attempt to tow a trailer while using a compact spare tire. − Proper tire inflation pressures are essential to the safe and satisfactory operation of your vehicle. Refer to “T ires – General Information” in “Starting and Oper- ating” for proper tire inflation procedur es.
CAUTION! If the trailer weighs more than 1,000 lbs (454 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.
The electrical connections are all complete to the vehicle but you must mate the harness to a trailer connector . Refer to the following illustrations.
T owing Tips Before setting out on a trip, practice turning, stopping and backing the trailer in an area away from heavy traffic. Automatic T ransmission The DRIVE range can be selected when towing. How- ever , if frequent shifting occurs while in this range, the TOW/HAUL mode (if equipped), or a lower gear range, should be selected.
Cooling System T o reduce potential for engine and transmission over- heating, take the following actions: − City Driving When stopped for short periods of time, shift the trans- mission into NEUTRAL and increase engine idle speed. − Highway Driving Reduce speed.
W ARNING! If the driveshaft is removed, the vehicle can roll even if the transmission is in P ARK, which could cause serious injury or death. The parking brake must be firmly engaged and the wheels chocked during driveshaft removal and installa- tion.
W ARNING! Y ou or others could be injured if you leave the vehicle unattended with the transfer case in the NEUTRAL position without first fully engaging the parking brake. The transfer case NEUTRAL position disengages both the front and rear driveshafts from the powertrain and will allow the vehicle to move even if the transmission is in P ARK.

CAUTION! Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the temperature gauge reads HOT (H), pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range.
JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING W ARNING! • Getting under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the jack and fall on you. Y ou could be crushed. Never get any part of your body under a vehicle that is on a jack. If you need to get under a raised vehicle, take it to a service center where it can be raised on a lift.
Spare Tire Stowage The spare tire is stowed under the rear of the vehicle by means of a cable winch mechanism. T o remove or stow the spare, use the jack handle to rotate the “spare tire drive” nut. The nut is located under a plastic cover at the center-r ear of the cargo floor area, just inside the liftgate opening.
CAUTION! • The winch mechanism is designed for use with the jack extension tube only . Use of an air wrench or other power tools is not recommended and can damage the winch. • When the spare is clear , tilt the retainer at the end of the cable and pull it through the center of the wheel.
Jacking Instructions W ARNING! Carefully follow these tire changing warnings to help prevent personal injury or damage to your vehicle: • Always park on a firm, level surface as far from the edge of the roadway as possible before raising the vehicle.
1. Remove the spare tire, jack, and tools from storage. 2. Loosen (but do not remove) the wheel lug nuts by turning them to the left, one turn, while the wheel is still on the ground. 3. Assemble the jack and jacking tools as shown. Connect jack handle driver (1) to two extensions (2) then to the lug wrench (3).
For the r ear axle, place it under the axle near the wheel to be changed. Ensure the jack is closest to the inside of the wheel when jacking on the rear axle. Do not raise the vehicle until you are sure the jack is fully engaged. 5. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw clockwise.
W ARNING! Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the vehicle less stable. It could slip off the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the vehicle only enough to remove the tire. 6. Remove the lug nuts and wheel. 7. Position the spar e wheel/tir e on the vehicle and install the lug nuts with the cone-shaped end toward the wheel.
Double check to ensure the tire is snug against the underbody of the vehicle. Damage to the winch cable may result if the vehicle is driven with the tire loose. W ARNING! Do not use power tools to winch the tire up or down. Impact-type tools may damage the winch mecha- nism.
Preparations for Jump-Start The battery in your vehicle is located in the front of the engine compartment, behind the left headlight assembly . W ARNING! • T ake care to avoid the radiator cooling fan when- ever the hood is raised. It can start anytime the ignition switch is on.
3. If using a another vehicle to jump-start the battery , park the vehicle within the jumper cables reach, set the parking brake and make sure the ignition is OFF . W ARNING! Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as this could establish a ground connection and personal injury could result.
W ARNING! Do not connect the cable to the negative post (-) of the discharged battery . The resulting electrical spark could cause the battery to explode and could result in personal injury .
EMERGENCY TOW HOOKS — IF EQUIPPED If your vehicle is equipped with tow hooks, there will be one in the rear and two mounted on the front of the vehicle.
If the transmission is not operable, or the vehicle must be towed faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) or farther than 15 miles (24 km), remove the driveshaft or tow with all four wheels OFF the ground. Acceptable methods are to tow the vehicle on a flatbed, or with one end of the vehicle raised and the other end on a towing dolly .

REPLACEMENT P ARTS Use of genuine MOP AR 威 parts for normal/scheduled maintenance and repairs is highly recommended to en- sure the designed performance. Damage or failures caused by the use of non-MOP AR 威 parts for maintenance and repairs will not be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty .
CAUTION! • Failure to properly maintain your vehicle or per- form repairs and service when necessary could result in more costly repairs, damage to other components or negatively impact vehicle perfor- mance. Immediately have potential malfunctions examined by an authorized Chrysler Group LLC dealership or qualified repair center .
CAUTION! Overfilling or underfilling the crankcase will cause aeration or loss of oil pressure. This could damage your engine. Change Engine Oil The oil change indicator system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for scheduled maintenance.
Engine Oil V iscosity (3.7L and 5.7L Engines) SAE 5W -20 engine oil is recommended for all operating temperatures. This engine oil improves low temperature starting and vehicle fuel economy . The engine oil filler cap also shows the recommended engine oil viscosity for your vehicle.
Engine Oil Filter The engine oil filter should be replaced with a new filter at every oil change. Engine Oil Filter Selection The manufacturer’s engines have a full-flow type dispos- able oil filter . Use a filter of this type for replacement. The quality of replacement filters varies considerably .
Engine Air Cleaner Filter Selection The quality of replacement engine air cleaner filters varies considerably . Only high quality filters should be used to assure most efficient service. MOP AR 威 engine air cleaner filters are a high quality filter and are recommended.
CAUTION! • It is essential when replacing the cables on the battery that the positive cable is attached to the positive post, and the negative cable is attached to the negative post. Battery posts are marked (+) positive and (-) negative and identified on the battery case.
W ARNING! • Use only refrigerants and compressor lubricants approved by the manufacturer for your air condi- tioning system. Some unapproved refrigerants are flammable and can explode, injuring you. Other unapproved refrigerants or lubricants can cause the system to fail, requiring costly repairs.
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 Fall and Spring.
located in the engine compartment, be sure to check the fluid level at regular intervals. Fill the reservoir with windshield washer solvent only (not radiator antifreeze). When refilling the washer fluid reservoir , take some washer fluid and apply it to a cloth or towel and wipe clean the wiper blades, this will help blade performance.
W ARNING! 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. T o avoid breathing CO, refer to “Safety T ips/Exhaust Gas” in “Things T o Know Before Starting Y our V ehicle” for further informa- tion.
NOTE: Intentional tampering with emissions control systems can result in civil penalties being assessed against you. W ARNING! 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.
Cooling System W ARNING! Y ou 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.
Cooling System — Drain, Flush, and Refill If the engine coolant (antifreeze) is dirty and contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with reliable cooling system cleaner . Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all deposits and chemicals.
CAUTION! (Continued) • This vehicle has not been designed for use with Propylene Glycol-based engine coolant (anti- freeze). Use of Propylene Glycol-based engine coolant (antifreeze) is not recommended. Adding Coolant Y our vehicle has been built with an improved engine coolant (antifreeze) that allows extended maintenance intervals.
NOTE: Mixing engine coolant (antifreeze) types will decrease the life of the engine coolant (antifreeze) and will require more frequent engine coolant (antifreeze) changes.
Disposal of Used Engine Coolant Used ethylene glycol-based engine coolant (antifreeze) is a regulated substance requiring pr oper disposal. Check with your local authorities to determine the disposal rules for your community .
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 recovery bottle. • Check engine coolant (antifreeze) freeze point in the radiator and in the coolant recovery bottle.
W ARNING! Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure and possibly an accident. 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. Y ou would not have your full braking capacity in an emergency .
W ARNING! (Continued) • T o avoid contamination from foreign matter or moisture, use only new brake fluid or fluid that has been in a tightly closed container . Keep the master cylinder reservoir cap secured at all times. Brake fluid in a open container absorbs moisture from the air resulting in a lower boiling point.
Selection of Lubricant Use only the manufacturer’s recommended fluid. Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in “Maintain- ing Y our V ehicle” for further information. T ransfer Case Fluid Level Check Inspect the transfer case for fluid leaks.
Automatic T ransmission Selection of Lubricant It is important that the proper lubricant is used in the transmission to assure optimum transmission perfor- mance. Use only the manufactur er’s r ecommended trans- mission fluid. Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in “Maintaining Y our V ehicle” for further informa- tion.
CAUTION! Do not use chemical flushes in your transmission as the chemicals can damage your transmission compo- nents. Such damage is not covered by the New V ehicle Limited W arranty . Fluid Level Check (3.7L Engine) Regular fluid level checks are not required.
Fluid Level Check (5.7L Engine) Check the fluid level while the transmission is at normal operating temperature. This occurs after at least 15 miles (25 km) of driving. At normal operating temperature the fluid cannot be held comfortably between the fingertips.
CAUTION! Be aware that if the fluid temperature is below 50°F (10°C) it may not register on the dipstick. Do not add fluid until the temperature is elevated enough to produce an accurate reading.
CAUTION! Under frequent heavy-duty driving conditions, change all lubricants, and lubricate body compo- nents, all driveline joints and steering linkage more often than in normal service, to prevent excessive wear .
