 WARNING: Operating, servicing and maintaining a passenger vehicle or off-highway motor vehicle can 
expose you to chemicals including engine exhaust, carbon monoxide, phthalates, and lead, which are known to the 
State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. To minimize exposure, avoid 
breathing exhaust, do not idle the engine except as necessary, service your vehicle in a well-ventilated area and 
wear gloves or wash your hands frequently when servicing your vehicle. For more information go to   
www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/passenger-vehicle.
This Owner’s Manual illustrates and describes the operation of features and equipment that are either standard or optional on this vehicle. This manual may also include a 
description of features and equipment that are no longer available or were not ordered on this vehicle. Please disregard any features and equipment described in this manual 
that are not on this vehicle. FCA US LLC reserves the right to make changes in design and specifications, and/or make additions to or improvements to its products without 
imposing any obligation upon itself to install them on products previously manufactured. 
With respect to any vehicles sold in Canada, the name FCA US LLC shall be deemed to be deleted and the name FCA Canada Inc.

injury. FCA US LLC strongly recommends that the driver use extreme caution when using any device or feature that may take their attention off the road. Use of any 
electrical devices, such as cellular telephones, computers, portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices, by the driver while the vehicle is moving is dangerous and 
could lead to a serious accident. Texting while driving is also dangerous and should never be done while the vehicle is moving. If you find yourself unable to devote your 
full attention to vehicle operation, pull off the road to a safe location and stop your vehicle. Some states or provinces prohibit the use of cellular telephones or texting 
while driving. It is always the driver’s responsibility to comply with all local laws.

 brand vehicle and to provide a convenient reference source 
 
for common questions.

local Chrysler brand dealer.
Drunk driving is one of the most frequent causes of accidents. Your driving ability can be seriously impaired with blood 
alcohol levels far below the legal minimum. If you are drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver,   
call a cab
 , a friend or use public transportation. DRIVING AND ALCOHOL
Driving after drinking can lead to an accident. Your perceptions are less sharp, your reflexes are slower and your judgment 
is impaired when you have been drinking. Never drink and then drive.
