— Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Off
Warning Light — If Equipped
This warning light indicates the Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) is off.
Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN
or ACC/ON/RUN, the ESC system will be on,
even if it was turned off previously.
— Low Fuel Warning Light
When the fuel level reaches approximately
2 gal (7.5 L) this light will turn on, and
remain on until fuel is added.
A single warning chime will sound with Low
Fuel Warning.
— Low Washer Fluid Warning Light —
If Equipped
This warning light will illuminate when the
windshield washer fluid is low.
— Service LaneSense Warning Light
— If Equipped
This warning light will illuminate when the
LaneSense system is not operating and re-
quires service. Please see an authorized
dealer.
— LaneSense Warning Light — If
Equipped
The LaneSense Warning Light will be solid
yellow when the vehicle is approaching a lane
marker. The warning light will flash when the
vehicle is crossing the lane marker.
Refer to “LaneSense — If Equipped" in
“Starting And Operating” for further informa-
tion.
— Engine Check/Malfunction Indica-
tor Warning Light (MIL)
The Engine Check/Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) is a part of an Onboard Diagnostic
System called OBD II that monitors engine
and automatic transmission control systems.
This warning light will illuminate when the
ignition is in the ON/RUN position before
engine start. If the bulb does not come on
when turning the ignition switch from OFF to
ON/RUN, have the condition checked
promptly.
Certain conditions, such as a loose or missing
gas cap, poor quality fuel, etc., may illumi-
nate the light after engine start. The vehicle
should be serviced if the light stays onthrough several typical driving styles. In most
situations, the vehicle will drive normally and
will not require towing.
When the engine is running, the MIL may
flash to alert serious conditions that could
lead to immediate loss of power or severe
catalytic converter damage. The vehicle
should be serviced by an authorized dealer as
soon as possible if this occurs.
WARNING!
A malfunctioning catalytic converter, as
referenced above, can reach higher tem-
peratures than in normal operating condi-
tions. This can cause a fire if you drive
slowly or park over flammable substances
such as dry plants, wood, cardboard, etc.
This could result in death or serious injury
to the driver, occupants or others.
CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the Malfunction
Indicator Light (MIL) on could cause dam-
age to the vehicle control system. It also

The system will automatically update and the
“Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will
turn off once the system receives the updated
tire pressures. The vehicle may need to be
driven for up to 10 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive
this information.
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 68°F (20°C)
and the measured tire pressure is 28 psi
(193 kPa), a temperature drop to 20°F (-7°C)
will decrease the tire pressure to approxi-
mately 24 psi (165 kPa). This tire pressure is
low enough to turn ON the “Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light.” Driving the vehicle
may cause the tire pressure to rise to approxi-
mately 28 psi (193 kPa), but the “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring Telltale Light” will still be on.
In this situation, the “Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing Telltale Light” will turn off only after the
tires are inflated to the vehicle’s recom-
mended 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 plac-
ard pressure in order to turn the Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light off.
CAUTION!
•The TPMS has been optimized for the
original equipment tires and wheels.
TPMS pressures and warning have been
established for the tire size equipped on
your vehicle. Undesirable system opera-
tion 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.
Customers are encouraged to use OEM
wheels to assure TPMS feature operation.
• Using aftermarket tire sealants may
cause the Tire Pressure Monitoring Sys-
tem (TPMS) sensor to become inoper-
able. After using an aftermarket tire
sealant it is recommended that you take
CAUTION!
your vehicle to an authorized dealer to
have your sensor function checked.
• 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 TPMS sensor.
NOTE:
• The TPMS is not intended to replace nor-
mal tire care and maintenance, or to pro-
vide warning of a tire failure or condition.
• 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 vehicle’s handling and stopping
ability.
• The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver’s respon-
sibility to maintain correct tire pressure
using an accurate tire pressure gauge, even
if underinflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination of the “Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light.”

• Use of the turn signal suppresses the warn-
ings.
• The system will not apply torque to the
steering wheel whenever a safety system
engages (anti-lock brakes, traction control
system, electronic stability control, forward
collision warning, etc.).
PARKVIEW REAR BACK UP
CAMERA — IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with the
ParkView Rear Back Up Camera that allows
you to see an on-screen image of the rear
surroundings of your vehicle whenever the
gear selector is put into REVERSE. The image
will be displayed in the touchscreen display
along with a caution note to “check entire
surroundings” across the top of the screen.
After five seconds this note will disappear.
The ParkView camera is located on the rear of
the vehicle above the rear license plate.
NOTE:
The ParkView Rear Back Up Camera has
programmable modes of operation that may
be selected through the Uconnect System.Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multime-
dia” in your Owner’s Manual for further
information.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up
even when using the ParkView Rear Back
Up Camera. Always check carefully behind
your vehicle, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, ob-
structions, or blind spots before backing
up. You are responsible for the safety of
your surroundings and must continue to
pay attention while backing up. Failure to
do so can result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
• To avoid vehicle damage, ParkView
should only be used as a parking aid.
The ParkView camera is unable to view
every obstacle or object in your drive
path.
• To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle
must be driven slowly when using
ParkView to be able to stop in time when
CAUTION!
an obstacle is seen. It is recommended
that the driver look frequently over his/
her shoulder when using ParkView.
NOTE:
If snow, ice, mud, or any foreign substance
builds up on the camera lens, clean the lens,
rinse with water, and dry with a soft cloth. Do
not cover the lens.
REFUELING THE VEHICLE
The Capless Fuel System uses a flapper
placed at the filler pipe of the fuel tank; it
opens and closes automatically upon
insertion/extraction of the fuel nozzle. The
Capless Fuel System is designed so that it
prevents the filling of an incorrect type of
fuel.
1. Unlock the Fuel Filler Door by pushing the
unlock button on the key fob or the unlock
button on the driver-side door trim panel.
173

2. Open the fuel filler door by pushing on the
rear edge of the Fuel Door.
3. There is no fuel filler cap. A flapper door
inside the pipe seals the system.
4. Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler
pipe; the nozzle opens and holds the flap-
per door while refueling.5. Fill the vehicle with fuel, and when the
fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the fuel
tank is full.
6. Wait ten seconds before removing the fuel
nozzle to allow fuel to drain from nozzle.
7. Remove the fuel nozzle and close the fuel
door.Emergency Gas Can Refueling
Most gas cans will not open the flapper door.
A funnel is provided to open the flapper door
to allow emergency refueling with a gas can.
1. Retrieve funnel from the rear cargo area.
2. Insert funnel into same filler pipe opening
as the fuel nozzle.
3. Ensure funnel is inserted fully to hold
flapper door open.
4. Pour fuel into funnel opening.

WARNING!
• Never have any smoking materials lit in
or near the vehicle when the fuel door is
open or the tank is being filled.
• Never add fuel when the engine is run-
ning. This is in violation of most coun-
tries regulations and may cause the
“Malfunction Indicator Light” to turn
on.
• Do not apply any object/cap to the end of
the filler which is not provided for the
car. The use of non-compliant objects/
plugs could cause a pressure increase
inside the tank, resulting in dangerous
situations.
WARNING!
• A fire may result if fuel is pumped into a
portable container that is inside of a
vehicle. You could be burned. Always
place fuel containers on the ground
while filling.

AdBlue (UREA) — If Equipped
Your vehicle is equipped with a Selective
Catalytic Reduction system to meet the very
stringent diesel emissions standards re-
quired by the European Community legisla-
tion.
The purpose of the SCR system is to reduce
levels of NOx (oxides of nitrogen emitted from
engines) that are harmful to our health and
the environment to a near-zero level. A small

Adding AdBlue (UREA)
NOTE:
Driving conditions (altitude, vehicle speed,
load, etc.) will effect the amount of AdBlue
(UREA) that is used in your vehicle.
AdBlue (UREA) Fill Procedure With Pump
Nozzle
NOTE:
Refer to “Fluids And Lubricants” in the
“Technical Specifications” section for the
correct fluid type.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground. Turn off
the engine by cycling the ignition to the
OFF position. Open the fuel filler and then
unscrew and remove the cap from the
AdBlue (UREA) filler.2. Insert AdBlue (UREA) fill adapter/nozzle
into AdBlue (UREA) fill inlet.
CAUTION!
•To avoid AdBlue (UREA) spillage, and
possible damage to the AdBlue (UREA)
tank from overfilling, do not “top off” the
AdBlue (UREA) tank after filling.
CAUTION!
• DO NOT OVERFILL. AdBlue (UREA) will
freeze below 12ºF (-11ºC). The AdBlue
(UREA) system is designed to work in
temperatures below the AdBlue (UREA)
freezing point, however, if the tank is
overfilled and freezes, the system could
be damaged.
• When AdBlue (UREA) is spilled, clean
the area immediately with water and use
an absorbent material to soak up the
spills on the ground.
• Do not attempt to start your engine if
AdBlue (UREA) is accidentally added to
the diesel fuel tank as it can result in
severe damage to your engine, including
but not limited to failure of the fuel
pump and injectors.

CAUTION!
• Never add anything other than AdBlue
(UREA) to the tank – especially any form
of hydrocarbon such as diesel fuel, fuel
system additives, gasoline, or any other
petroleum-based product. Even a very
small amount of these, less than
100 parts per million or less than 1 oz.
(30 ml) per 78 gallons (295 liters) will
contaminate the entire AdBlue (UREA)
system and will require replacement. If
owners use a container, funnel or nozzle
when refilling the tank, it should either
be new or one that is has only been used
for adding AdBlue (UREA). Mopar pro-
vides an attachable nozzle with its Ad-
Blue (UREA) for this purpose.3. Stop filling the AdBlue (UREA) tank im-
mediately when any of the following hap-
pen: AdBlue (UREA) splashes out the fill
inlet, or a AdBlue (UREA) pump nozzle
automatically shuts off.
4. After removing the nozzle, refit the cap on
the AdBlue (UREA) filler by turning it
clockwise until it is fully tightened. Cycle
the ignition to the ACC position (no need
to start the engine).
5. Wait for the warning on the instrument
panel to switch off before moving the
vehicle, the warning light may stay on for
a few seconds to half a minute. In case of
engine start-up and movement of the ve-
hicle, the warning light will remain on for
a longer period of time, but there are no
problems on the engine functionality. If
topping up is done with the AdBlue
(UREA) tank empty, you have to wait two
minutes before starting the vehicle.When Refueling The Additive For Diesel Emis-
sions AdBlue (UREA) With Bottle:
• Park the vehicle on level ground.
• Turn off the engine by cycling the ignition to
the OFF position.
• Open the fuel filler and then unscrew and
remove the cap from the AdBlue (UREA)
filler.
• Press the bottom of the bottle towards the
filler to release the bottle's safety valve and
start topping up; if the level of AdBlue
(UREA) in the bottle.
• Stop filling the AdBlue (UREA) tank imme-
diately when any of the following happen:
AdBlue (UREA) stops flowing from the fill
bottle into the AdBlue (UREA) fill inlet,
AdBlue (UREA) splashes out the fill inlet.
• If the level of AdBlue (UREA) in the bottle
does not drop while topping up, it means
that you have filled the reservoir, so pull the
bottle towards you to re-close the bottle's
safety valve and unscrew the bottle from
the filler.
179

CAUTION!
Accessories plugged into the vehicle
power outlets draw power from the vehi-
cle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e.,
cellular devices, etc.). Eventually, if
plugged in long enough without engine
operation, the vehicle’s battery will dis-
charge sufficiently to degrade battery life
and/or prevent the engine from starting.
REFUELING IN EMERGENCY
Emergency Fuel Filler Door Release
If you are unable to open the fuel filler door,
use the fuel filler door emergency release.
1. Open the liftgate.
2. Remove access door located on right inte-
rior trim panel for release cable with the
tip of your key.
3. Grab the release cable tether and pull up
to release the fuel filler door.
IF YOUR ENGINE
OVERHEATS
In any of the following situations, you can
reduce the potential for overheating your en-
gine by taking the appropriate action.
• On the highways — slow down.
• In city traffic — while stopped, place the
transmission in NEUTRAL, but do not in-
crease engine idle speed.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could
damage your vehicle. If the temperature
gauge reads “H,” pull over and stop the
vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air con-
ditioner turned off until the pointer drops
back into the normal range. If the pointer
remains on the “H” and you hear continu-
ous chimes, turn the engine off immedi-
ately and call for service.NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow
down an impending overheat condition:
• If your Air Conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it
off. The A/C system adds heat to the engine
cooling system and turning the A/C off can
help remove this heat.
• You can also turn the temperature control
to maximum heat, the mode control to floor
and the blower control to high. This allows
the heater core to act as a supplement to
the radiator and aids in removing heat from
the engine cooling system.WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by hot
engine coolant (antifreeze) or steam from
your radiator. If you see or hear steam
coming from under the hood, do not open
the hood until the radiator has had time to
cool. Never try to open a cooling system
pressure cap when the radiator or coolant
bottle is hot.
