ECO mode CHRYSLER 200 2015 2.G Owner's Manual

PADDLE SHIFT MODE
• When the transmission is in DRIVE orSPORT mode, it will operate automatically,
shifting between the nine available gears.
• To activate Paddle Shift mode, simply tap one of the steering wheel-mounted shift
paddles (+/-) while in DRIVE or SPORT
mode. Tapping (-) to enter Paddle Shift
mode will downshift the transmission to the
next lower gear, while using (+) to enter
Paddle Shift mode will retain the current
gear. When Paddle Shift is active, the cur-
rent transmission gear is displayed in the
instrument cluster.
• In Paddle Shift mode, the transmission will shift up or down when (+/-) is manually se-
lected by the driver, unless an engine lug-
ging or overspeed condition would result. It
will remain in the selected gear until another
upshift or downshift is chosen, except as
explained below.
• If Paddle Shift is engaged while in DRIVE mode, the transmission will automatically shift up when maximum engine speed is reached. Lack of accelerator pedal activity will cause the
transmission to revert to automatic operation.
• If Paddle Shift is engaged while in SPORT mode, the transmission will remain in the selected gear even when maximum engine speed is reached (except the transmission will upshift
automatically from 1st to 2nd gear at wide open throttle, if necessary). Otherwise, the
transmission will upshift only when commanded by the driver.
• In either DRIVE or SPORT mode, the transmission will automatically downshift as the vehicle slows to a stop (to prevent engine lugging) and will display the current gear. Tapping the (+)
paddle (at a stop) will allow starting in second gear. After a stop, the driver should manually
upshift (+) the transmission as the vehicle accelerates.
• Holding the (-) paddle depressed will downshift the transmission to the lowest gear possible at the current speed.
To disengage Paddle Shift mode, press and hold the (+) shift paddle until “D” or “S” is once again
indicated in the instrument cluster. You can shift in or out of Paddle Shift mode at any time
without taking your foot off the accelerator pedal.
WARNING!
Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a slippery surface. The drive wheels could
lose their grip and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or personal injury.

the power sunroof while operating the power sunroof switch. Such entrapment may result
in serious injury or death.
• In a collision, there is a greater risk of being thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof.
You could also be severely injured or killed. Always fasten your seat belt properly and make
sure all passengers are properly secured.
• Do not allow small children to operate the sunroof. Never allow your fingers, other body
parts, or any object to project through the sunroof opening. Injury may result.
WIND BUFFETING
Wind buffeting can be described as a helicopter-type percussion sound. If buffeting occurs with
the rear windows open, adjust the front and rear windows together.
If buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening, or adjust any window. This
will minimize buffeting.

UTILITY

NOTE:
This light shows only that the parking brake is applied. It does not show the degree of brake
application.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake system may have
failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have a collision. Have the vehicle
checked immediately.
- Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
Certain conditions, such as a loose or missing gas cap, poor fuel quality, etc., may illuminate the
MIL after engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on through several typical
driving cycles. In most situations, the vehicle will drive normally and not require towing.
If the MIL flashes when the engine is running, serious conditions may exist that could lead to
immediate loss of power or severe catalytic converter damage. We recommend you do not
operate the vehicle. Have the vehicle serviced immediately.
- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation/Malfunction
Indicator Light
If the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” comes on continuously with the engine
running, a malfunction has been detected in the ESC system. If this light remains on after several
ignition cycles, and the vehicle has been driven several miles (kilometers) at speeds greater than
30 mph (48 km/h), we recommend you do not operate the vehicle. Have the vehicle serviced
immediately.
The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” starts to flash as soon as the tires lose traction
and the ESC system becomes active. If the light begins to flash during acceleration, ease up on
the accelerator and apply as little throttle as possible. Be sure to adapt your speed and driving to
the prevailing road conditions. The light also flashes when TCS is active. To improve the vehicle's
traction when starting off in deep snow, sand or gravel, it may be desirable to switch the ESC
system to Partial Off mode by momentarily pressing the ESC Off
switch.
