VEHICLE CHANGES / ALTERATIONS
Accessories Purchased By The Owner
Warning!
Any change or alteration of the vehicle might seriously affect its safety and road handling, thus causing accidents, in which the occupants could
even be fatally injured.
If you decide to install electrical accessories that require a permanent electrical supply (e.g. radio, satellite anti-theft system, etc.) or
accessories that in any case drain the electrical supply after purchasing the vehicle, contact your authorized dealer. Dealer personnel
will check whether the vehicles's electrical system is able to withstand the load required or whether it needs to be integrated with a
more powerful battery.
Note:Use caution when adding additional spoilers, alloy wheel rims, or non-standard wheel hubs: they could reduce the ventilation
of the brakes and affect efficiency under sharp and repeated braking, or on long descents. Make sure that nothing obstructs the
pedal (mats, etc.).
FCA US LLC shall not be liable for damage caused by the installation of accessories either not supplied or recommended by FCA US
LLC and/or not installed in compliance with the provided instructions.
Installing Electrical/Electronic Devices
FCA US LLC authorizes the installation of transceivers provided that installation is carried out at a specialized center, in compliance
with manufacturer's specifications.
Note: Local authorities may not allow the vehicle on the road if devices that modify the features of the vehicle have been installed.
This also may void the warranty in relation to faults caused by the change either directly or indirectly related to it.
FCA US LLC shall not be liable for damage caused by the installation of accessories either not supplied or recommended by FCA US
LLC and/or not installed in compliance with the provided instructions.

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 Industry Canada
license-exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful
interference, and
2. This device must accept any
interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Note:Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
ENGINE IMMOBILIZER
Engine Immobilizer Operation
The Engine Immobilizer system prevents
unauthorized use of the vehicle by
disabling engine starting.
The system does not need to be enabled
or activated. Operation of the
immobilizer is automatic whether the
vehicle's doors are locked or unlocked.
When the ignition is set to ON, the Engine
Immobilizer system identifies the code
transmitted by the key. If the code is
recognized as valid, the Engine
Immobilizer system enables engine
starting.
When the ignition is brought back to
STOP, the Engine Immobilizer system
deactivates the engine control unit,
disabling engine starting.
For the correct engine starting
procedures, refer to “Starting The
Engine” in “Starting And Operating.”

after-market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifications
(e.g. installation of anti-theft device) that
could adversely affect performance. Doing
so could void the New Vehicle Limited
Warrant, cause SERIOUS SAFETY
PROBLEMS INCLUDING INJURY, and also
result in the vehicle not meeting
type-approval requirements.

Heated Steering Wheel
With the ignition in the ON position, push
the heated steering wheelbutton on
the instrument panel.
The indicator on the button will illuminate
when this feature is enabled.
Warning!
Persons who are unable to feel pain to the
skin because of advanced age, chronic
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury,
medication, alcohol use, exhaustion, or other
physical conditions must exercise care when
using the steering wheel heater. It may
cause burns even at low temperatures,
especially if used for long periods.
Do not place anything on the steering
wheel that insulates against heat, such as a
blanket or steering wheel covers of any type
and material. This may cause the steering
wheel heater to overheat.

neutral position, rotate it to the power
folding position. Rotate the knob back to
the neutral position to return the mirrors
to the driving position.
If the power mirror control knob is moved

Activating the central door locking
system from outside the vehicle
automatically folds the mirrors. The
mirrors return to the driving position
when the vehicle is then unlocked.
If the door mirrors were folded using the
power mirror control knob, they can only
be returned to the driving position by
rotating the knob again.Note:
The power folding operation can
be enabled only when the vehicle speed is
lower than 31 mph (50 km/h).
Automatic Dimming Mirrors — If
Equipped
Like the electrochromic mirror, an
automatic dimming feature is also
available on the outside rear view mirrors
to prevent glare. The automatic dimming
button for these mirrors is the same as
the electrochromic mirror.
Warning!
Vehicles and other objects seen in an outside
convex mirror will look smaller and farther
away than they really are. Relying too much
on side convex mirrors could cause you to
collide with another vehicle or other object.
Use your inside mirror when judging the size
or distance of a vehicle seen in a side convex
mirror.
Heated Mirrors
Push the rear defrostbutton, located
within the climate controls, to activate
the heated mirrors.
