Locking/Unlocking Doors From The Outside In
An Emergency
If the battery is discharged or the key fob is
inoperable, you can lock or unlock the doors
from the outside by inserting the blade of the
emergency key, found inside the key fob, into
the door handle lock cylinder and turn the
emergency key as follows.
Lock — Turn the emergency key to the right
(clockwise)
Unlock — Turn the emergency key to the left
(counter clockwise)
Replacing The Battery In The Key Fob
The recommended replacement battery is one
CR2032 battery.

NOTE:

Customers are recommended to use a
battery obtained from Mopar. Aftermarket
coin battery dimensions may not meet the
original OEM coin battery dimensions.
Perchlorate Material — special handling
may apply. See
www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazard -
ouswaste/perchlorate
for further informa -
tion.
Do not touch the battery terminals that are
on the back housing or the printed circuit
board. To replace the battery, proceed as follows:
1. Push the sides of the key fob inward and
extract the cover pulling downwards.
Key Fob Cover Removal
2. Remove the emergency key from its housing.
Removing Emergency Key
3. Remove the battery plug by rotating it counter clockwise. Removing Battery Plug

4. Remove the battery from its slot and replace it with a new one. When replacing the
battery, match the (+) sign on the battery to
the (+) sign on the inside of the battery clip,
located on the back cover. Avoid touching
the new battery with your fingers. Skin oils
may cause battery deterioration. If you touch
a battery, clean it with rubbing alcohol.

SAFETY

154

Frontal Collision Alarm With Active Braking
If this function is selected, the brakes are
operated to reduce the speed of the vehicle in
the event of potential collision.
This function applies an additional braking
pressure if the braking pressure applied by the
driver does not suffice to prevent potential
collision.
The function is active with speed above 2 mph
(4 km/h).

NOTE:

When using an automatic car wash it is recom-
mended to deactivate the system through the
settings of the radio system. The system may
detect the presence of a car, a wall or another
obstacle and activate.
Driving In Special Conditions
In certain driving conditions, system interven -
tion might be unexpected or delayed. The
driver must therefore be very careful, keeping
control of the vehicle.
Driving close to a bend.
The vehicle ahead is leaving a roundabout.
Vehicles with small dimensions and/or not
aligned in the driving lane.
Lane change by other vehicles.
Vehicles traveling at right angles to the
vehicle.

NOTE:

In particularly complex traffic conditions,
the driver can deactivate the system manu -
ally through the radio system.
If the driver depresses the brake pedal fully
or makes an excessive steering maneuver
during system operation, the automatic
braking function may deactivate (e.g. to
allow a possible maneuver to avoid the
obstacle).
The FCW system is automatically deacti -
vated when operating in race mode and a
warning message will be displayed on the
instrument cluster
Ú
page 273. Driving Close To A Bend
When entering or leaving a wide bend, the
system may detect a vehicle in front you, but
not in the same driving lane. In cases such as
these, the system may intervene.
Driving Around Wide Curves
21_GA_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 154

155

The Vehicle Ahead Is Leaving A Roundabout
On a roundabout, the system could intervene
if it detects a vehicle ahead which is leaving
the roundabout.Driving In Roundabouts Vehicles With Small Dimensions And/Or Not
Aligned In The Driving Lane
The system cannot detect vehicles in front of
you but outside the range of the radar sensor
and may therefore not react in the presence of
small vehicles, such as bicycles or motorcy
-
cles.
Driving Near Small Vehicles Lane Change By Other Vehicles
Vehicles suddenly changing lanes to enter the
same lane as your vehicle within the operating
range of the radar sensor, may cause the
system to intervene.
Other Vehicles Changing Lanes

(Continued)
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.
For further information
Ú
page 245.
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
replacement.
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 mainte -
nance is highly recommended.
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 gaso
-
line.
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. FCA US LLC
strongly recommends that you use tires equiv -
alent to the originals in size, quality and perfor -
mance when replacement is needed

Ú
page 244. Refer to the Tire and Loading
Information placard or the Vehicle Certifica -
tion 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. For more information relating to the Load
Index and Speed Symbol of a tire

Ú
page 234.
It is recommended to replace the two front
tires or two rear tires as a pair. Replacing just
one tire can seriously affect your vehicle’s
handling. If you ever replace a wheel, make
sure that the wheel’s specifications match
those of the original wheels.
It is recommended you contact an authorized
tire dealer or original equipment dealer with
any questions you may have on tire specifica -
tions or capability. Failure to use equivalent
replacement tires may adversely affect the
safety, handling, and ride of your vehicle.
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.
WARNING!
Do not use a tire, wheel size, load rating,
or speed rating other than that specified
for your vehicle. Some combinations of
unapproved 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.
