WELCOME FROM CHRYSLER GROUP LLC
Congratulations on selecting your new Chrysler Group LLC vehicle. Be assured that it represents
precision workmanship, distinctive styling, and high quality - all essentials that are traditional to our
vehicles.
Your new Chrysler Group LLC vehicle has characteristics to enhance the driver's control under some
driving conditions. These are to assist the driver and are never a substitute for attentive driving. They
can never take the driver's place. Always drive carefully.
Your new vehicle has many features for the comfort and convenience of you and your passengers.
Some of these should not be used when driving because they take your eyes from the road or your
attention from driving. Never text while driving or take your eyes more than momentarily off the
road.
This guide illustrates and describes the operation of features and equipment that are either standard
or optional on this vehicle. This guide 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 guide that are not available on this vehicle. Chrysler Group 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.
This User Guide has been prepared to help you quickly become acquainted with the important
features of your vehicle. It contains most everything you will need to operate and maintain the
vehicle, including emergency information.
The DVD includes a computer application containing detailed owner's information which can be
viewed on a personal computer or MAC computer. The multimedia DVD also includes videos which
can be played on any standard DVD player (including the Media Center Touch-Screen Radios).
Additional DVD operational information is located on the back of the DVD sleeve.
For complete owner information, refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD in the owner’s kit
provided at the time of new vehicle purchase. For your convenience, the information contained on
the DVD may also be printed and saved for future reference.
Chrysler Group LLC is committed to protecting our environment and natural resources. By
converting from paper to electronic delivery for the majority of the user information for your vehicle,
together we greatly reduce the demand for tree-based products and lessen the stress on our
environment.INTRODUCTION/WELCOME

PLAYING iPod/USB/MP3 DEVICES• There are many ways to play music from iPod®/MP3 players or USB devices through yourvehicle's sound system.
1. Audio Jack

amplify the source and play through the vehicle speakers.
• Touching the Player soft-key then choose AUX source will change the mode to auxiliary device if the Audio Jack is connected, allowing the music from your portable device to be heard
through the vehicle's speakers.

2. USB Port
• Connect your iPod® or compatible device using a USB cable into the USB Port. USB Memorysticks with audio files can also be used. Then, audio from the device can be played on the

NOTE:
• When connecting your iPod® device for the first time, the system may take several minutes to readyour music, depending on the number of files. For example, the system will take approximately
5 minutes for every 1000 songs loaded on the device. Also during the reading process, the Shuffle
and Browse functions will be disabled. This process is needed to ensure the full use of your iPod®
features and only happens the first time it is connected. After the first time, the reading process of

playlist.
