GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

20

Key Left Vehicle Feature — If Equipped
If a valid key fob is no longer detected inside the
vehicle while the vehicle’s ignition system is in
the ON/RUN or START position, the message
“Key Fob Has Left The Vehicle” will be shown in
the instrument cluster display along with an
interior chime. An exterior audible and visual alert
will also be activated to warn the driver.
The vehicle’s horn will rapidly chirp three times
along with a single flash of the vehicle’s exterior
lights.

NOTE:

The doors have to be open and then closed in
order for the vehicle to detect a key fob; the
Key Left Vehicle feature will not activate until
all of the doors are closed.
These alerts will not be activated in situations
where the vehicle’s engine is left running with
the key fob inside.
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/hazardouswaste/
perchlorate
for further information.
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.

SAFETY

140

System Failure Signaling
If the system turns off and a dedicated message
is shown on the display, it means that there is a
fault with the system.
In this case, it is still possible to drive the vehicle,
but you are advised to contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible.
Radar Indication Not Available
If conditions are such that the radar cannot
detect obstacles correctly, the system is
deactivated and a dedicated message appears
on the display. This generally occurs in the event
of poor visibility, such as when it is snowing or
raining heavily.
The function of this system can also be
temporarily reduced due to obstructions such as
mud, dirt or ice on the fascia/bumper. In such
cases, a dedicated message will be shown on the
display and the system will be deactivated. This
message can sometimes appear in conditions of
high reflectivity (e.g. tunnels with reflective tiles
or ice or snow). When the conditions limiting the
system functions end, it will go back to normal
and complete operation.
In certain cases, this dedicated message could
be displayed when the radar is not detecting any
vehicles or objects within its view range.
If atmospheric conditions are not the reason
behind this message, check if the sensor is dirty.
It could be necessary to clean or remove any
obstructions in the area.
If the message appears frequently, even in the
absence of atmospheric conditions such as snow, rain, mud or other obstructions, contact an
authorized dealer for a sensor alignment check.
In the absence of visible obstructions, manually
removing the decorative cover trim and cleaning
the radar surface could be required. Have this
operation performed at an authorized dealer.

NOTE:
It is recommended that you do not install devices,
accessories, or aerodynamic attachments in
front of the sensor or darken it in any way, as this
can compromise the correct functioning of the
system.
Frontal Collision Alarm With Active Braking —
If Equipped
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 intervention
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 manually
through the radio system.
If the driver presses 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 deactivated
when operating in race mode and a warning
message will be displayed on the instrument
cluster

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
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 motorcycles.
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
Vehicles Traveling At Right Angles To The Vehicle
The system may temporarily react to a vehicle
that is passing through the radar sensor’s
operating range at right angles.
Other Vehicle Passing Through Radar Range

(Continued)
Tread Wear Indicators
Tread wear indicators are in the original
equipment tires to help you in determining when
your tires should be replaced.Tire Tread
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 215.
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 maintenance 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 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 equivalent to the
originals in size, quality and performance when
replacement is needed

Ú
page 215. Refer to the
Tire and Loading Information 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. For more information relating to the Load Index
and Speed Symbol of a tire

Ú
page 207.
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 specifications or
capability. Failure to use equivalent replacement
tires may adversely affect the safety, handling,
and ride of your vehicle.
1 — Worn Tire
2 — New Tire
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.
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.
