VEHICLES SOLD IN CANADA
With respect to any vehicles sold in Canada, the name FCA US LLC shall be deemed
to be deleted and the name Chrysler Canada Inc. used in substitution (excluding
legal lines).
WARNING!
• Pedals that cannot move freely can cause loss of vehicle control and increase
the risk of serious personal injury.
• Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver foot well while the
vehicle is moving. Objects can become trapped under the brake pedal and
accelerator pedal causing a loss of vehicle control.
• Failure to properly follow floor mat installation or mounting can cause inter-
ference with the brake pedal and accelerator pedal operation causing loss of
control of the vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the shift lever.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location accessible to
children, and do not leave the ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go in the MAR/RUN mode. A child could operate power windows,
other controls, or move the vehicle.
• Never use the “PARK” position as a substitute for the parking brake. Always
apply the parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement
and possible injury or damage.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

REMOTE START
This system uses the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter to start the engine
conveniently from outside the vehicle while still maintaining security. The system has
a range of at least 300 ft (91 m).
The Remote Starting System also activates the Climate Control and (if equipped) the
optional heated seats and optional heated steering wheel depending on temperatures
outside and inside the car.

Pushing the REMOTE START button a third time shuts the engine off.
• To drive the vehicle, push UNLOCK button, insert the key in the ignition and turn
to the MAR/RUN position.
• With Remote Start, the engine will only run for 15 minutes (timeout) unless the
ignition key is placed in the MAR/RUN position.
• The vehicle must be started with the key after two consecutive timeouts.
NOTE:
The Remote Start Comfort System can be activated and deactivated through the
Uconnect®Settings. Refer to “Uconnect®Programmable Features” in “Electronics”
for more information on Remote Start Comfort System operation.
WARNING!
• Do not start or run an engine in a closed garage or confined area. Exhaust gas
contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is odorless and colorless. Carbon
Monoxide is poisonous and can cause serious injury or death when inhaled.
• Keep Key Fob transmitters away from children. Operation of the Remote Start
System, windows, door locks or other controls could cause serious injury or
death.

• Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed. If you are involved in
another collision, the air bags will not be in place to protect you.
• If it is necessary to modify the air bag system for persons with disabilities, contact
your authorized dealer.
• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD regarding the Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS) for further information.
Supplemental Knee Air Bags
This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag mounted in the
instrument panel below the steering column. The Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag
provides enhanced protection during a frontal impact by working together with the
seat belts, pretensioners, and Advanced Front Air Bags.
WARNING!
• Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision.
The air bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some
collisions, the air bags won't deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even
though you have air bags.
• Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced
Front Air Bag deployment could cause serious injury, including death. Air bags
need room to inflate. Sit back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the
steering wheel or instrument panel.
• No objects should be placed over or near the air bag on the instrument panel
or steering wheel because any such objects could cause harm if the vehicle is
in a collision severe enough to cause the air bag to inflate.
Supplemental Side Air Bags
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SABs)
located in the outboard side of the front seats. The SABs are marked with a SRS
AIRBAG or AIRBAG label sewn into the outboard side of the seats.
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains
(SABICs) located above the side windows. The trim covering the SABICs is labeled
SRS AIRBAG or AIRBAG. The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or
complete ejection of vehicle occupants through side windows in certain side
impact events.
• The SABICs and SABs (“Side Air Bags”) are designed to activate in certain side
impacts and certain rollover events. The Occupant Restraint Controller (“ORC”)
determines whether the deployment of the Side Air Bags in a particular side
impact or rollover event is appropriate, based on the severity and type of collision.
Vehicle damage by itself is not a good indicator of whether or not Side Air Bags
should have deployed.
GETTING STARTED
20

WARNING!
• Side Air Bags need room to inflate. Do not lean against the door or window. Sit
upright in the center of the seat.
• Being too close to the Side Air Bags during deployment could cause you to be
severely injured or killed.
• Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a
collision. The Side Air Bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In
some collisions, Side Air Bags won’t deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt
even though you have Side Air Bags.
• This vehicle is equipped with left and right Supplemental Side Air Bag
Inflatable Curtains (SABICs). Do not stack luggage or other cargo up high
enough to block the deployment of the SABICs. The trim covering above the
side windows where the SABIC and its deployment path are located should
remain free from any obstructions.
• This vehicle is equipped with SABICs. In order for the SABICs to work as
intended, do not install any accessory items in your vehicle which could alter
the roof. Do not add an aftermarket sunroof to your vehicle. Do not add roof
racks that require permanent attachments (bolts or screws) for installation on
the vehicle roof. Do not drill into the roof of the vehicle for any reason.
• Do not use accessory seat covers or place objects between you and the Side Air
Bags; the performance could be adversely affected and/or objects could be
pushed into you, causing serious injury.
CHILD RESTRAINTS
Children 12 years or younger should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, if
available. According to crash statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in
the rear seats rather than in the front.
Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small
children ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted
for ignoring it.
NOTE:
• For additional information, refer to www.Seatcheck.org or call 1-866-
SEATCHECK.
• Canadian residents should refer to Transport Canada’s website for additional
information:

Mist
Use this feature when weather conditions make occasional usage of the wipers necessary.
Push the lever upward to the Mist position and release for a single wiping cycle.
NOTE:
The mist feature does not activate the washer pump; therefore, no washer fluid will
be sprayed on the windshield. The wash function must be used in order to spray the
windshield with washer fluid.
Rear Window Wiper/Washer
The rear wiper/washer controls are located on the lever on the right side of the
steering column. The rear wiper/washer is operated by rotating a switch, located at
the middle of the lever.
Rotate the center portion of the lever upward to the first detent for intermittent
operation and to the second detent for continuous rear wiper operation.
To use the washer, push the lever forward and hold while spray is desired. If the leveris pushed while in the intermittent setting, the wiper will turn on and operate forseveral wipe cycles after the end of the lever is released, and then resume theintermittent interval previously selected.
If the lever is pushed while the wiper is in the off position, the wiper will operate for
several wipe cycles, then turn off.
NOTE:
As a protective measure, the pump will stop if the switch is held for more than 30
seconds. Once the lever is released, the pump will resume normal operation.
If the rear wiper is operating when the ignition is turned to the STOP/OFF position,
the wiper will automatically return to the “park” position.
Rear Window Defroster
The rear window defroster button is located with the Climate Controls on the
instrument panel. Push this button to turn on the rear window defroster. An indicator
in the button will illuminate when the rear window defroster is on. The rear window
defroster automatically turns off after approximately 20 minutes. To manually shut
the defroster off, push the button a second time.
