Mounting Inflatable Spare Tire

NOTE:
Do not install the wheel cover on the inflatable spare tire.
7. Leave the vehicle on the jack and start inflating the inflatable spare after the tire has been mounted to
the vehicle. Secure the wheel to the hub by tightening
the nuts with the wrench. After inflation, once the
vehicle is lowered you will have a second opportunity
to torque the lug nuts
Úpage 303. 8. Inflate the tire to the prescribed pressure 60 psi
(4.2 Bar) using the Portable Air Compressor
Úpage 244 or Tire Service Kit if equipped Úpage 245.
9. Lower the vehicle once the inflatable Spare has reached its pressure and the compressor-hose has
been removed from the tire valve.
10. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the handle for increased
leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern until
each nut has been tightened twice
Úpage 303. If in
doubt about the correct tightness, have them
checked with a torque wrench by an authorized
dealer or at a service station.
11. Lower the jack to its fully-closed position.
12. Place the deflated (flat) tire and foam tray cover assembly in the rear cargo area. Do not stow the
deflated tire in the inflatable spare tire location. Have
the full-sized tire repaired or replaced, as soon as
possible. 13. Stow the jack back in the stowage compartment and
place the access panel back. The stud of the storage
area must be threaded through the lower part of the
jack. Then turn the Jack Screw clockwise to secure it
in place.
NOTE:Stow the foam tray and components in the cargo area.

ROAD TIRE INSTALLATION
Vehicles Equipped With Wheel Covers

1. Mount the road tire on the axle.

2. To ease the installation process for steel wheels with
wheel covers, install two lug nuts on the mounting
studs which are on each side of the valve stem. Install
the lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the nut
toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug nuts.

Tire And Wheel Cover Or Center Cap

3. Align the valve notch in the wheel cover with the valve stem on the wheel. Install the cover by hand,
snapping the cover over the two lug nuts. Do not use
a hammer or excessive force to install the cover.
4. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly tighten all the
lug nuts until the wheel sits flush onto the hub and
there is no play. The nuts will have to be fully
tightened once the vehicle is lowered. Tightening an
improperly seated wheel under vehicle load can
damage the threads, cause vibration, and undermine
safety.
5. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
6. Finish tightening the lug nuts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the handle for increased
leverage. Tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern until
each nut has been tightened twice
Úpage 303. If in
doubt about the correct tightness, have them
checked with a torque wrench by an authorized
dealer or at a service station.
7. After 25 miles (40 km) check the lug nut torque with a torque wrench to ensure that all lug nuts are
properly seated against the wheel.

254IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
If the temperature gauge is moving towards or close to the
HOT (H) position, you can reduce the potential for
overheating by taking the appropriate action.
On highways — slow down.
 In city traffic — while stopped, place the transmission in
NEUTRAL (N), but do not increase the engine idle speed
while preventing vehicle motion with the brakes.
 If your Air Conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The A/C
system adds heat to the engine cooling system and
turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
 You can also turn the temperature control to maximum
heat, the mode control to floor and the blower control
to high. This allows the heater core to act as a supple -
ment to the radiator and aids in removing heat from the
engine cooling system.MANUAL PARK RELEASE
To move the vehicle in cases where the transmission will
not shift out of PARK (P) (such as a depleted battery), a
Manual Park Release is available.

Manual Park Release Access Cover

Follow These Steps To Activate The Manual Park Release:

1. Apply firm pressure to the brake pedal while seated in the driver’s seat.

2. Apply the parking brake, if possible.
3. Using a small screwdriver or similar tool, remove the Manual Park Release access cover, which is to the
lower left of the steering column.
4. The Manual Park Release access cover is connected to a red tether strap. Pull the tether strap out as far as
it will go, then release it. The transmission should now
be in NEUTRAL (N), allowing the vehicle to be moved.

Tether Strap

NOTE:
When the lever is locked in the released position, the
tether will remain outside of the trim panel and the access
cover cannot be reinstalled.
5. Release the parking brake only when the vehicle is securely connected to a tow vehicle.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your
vehicle. If temperature gauge reads “H”, pull over and
stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner
turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal
range. If the pointer remains on the “H”, turn the engine
off immediately, and call for service.
WARNING!
You should be seated in the driver’s seat with your foot
firmly placed on the brake pedal to maintain control of
the vehicle before activating the Manual Park Release.
If possible, you should apply the parking brake.
Activating the Manual Park Release will allow your
vehicle to roll away if it is not secured or properly
connected to a tow vehicle. Activating the Manual Park
Release on an unsecured vehicle could lead to serious
injury or death for those in or around the vehicle.

9. Once the filter is replaced, reinstall the filter cover,
making sure the retaining tabs are fully secured into
their housings.
10. Close the cabin air filter compartment cover, and reinsert the snaps into their slots. Push the snap lids
until fully attached.
11. Push the glove compartment door to the near closed position to reengage the glove compartment travel
stops. Finally, pull the glove compartment tension
tether clip down and slide it back into the slot on the
side of the glove compartment door.
BODY LUBRICATION
Locks and all body pivot points, including such items as
seat tracks, door hinge pivot points and rollers, liftgate,
tailgate, decklid, sliding doors and hood hinges, should be
lubricated periodically. Use a lithium-based grease, such
as Mopar® Spray White Lube to ensure quiet, easy
operation and to protect against rust and wear. Prior to the
application of any lubricant, the parts concerned should
be wiped clean to remove dust and grit; after lubricating,
excess oil and grease should be removed. Particular
attention should also be given to hood latching
components to ensure proper function. When performing
other underhood services, the hood latch release
mechanism, and safety catch should be cleaned and
lubricated.
The external lock cylinders should be lubricated twice a
year, preferably in the Autumn and Spring. Apply a small
amount of a high quality lubricant, such as Mopar® Lock
Cylinder Lubricant directly into the lock cylinder.
WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADES
Clean the rubber edges of the wiper blades and the
windshield periodically with a sponge or soft cloth and a
mild nonabrasive cleaner. This will remove accumulations
of salt or road film.
Operation of the wipers on dry glass for long periods may
cause deterioration of the wiper blades. Always use
washer fluid when using the wipers to remove salt or dirt
from a dry windshield.
Avoid using the wiper blades to remove frost or ice from
the windshield. Keep the blade rubber out of contact with
petroleum products such as engine oil, gasoline, etc.
NOTE:Life expectancy of wiper blades varies depending on
geographical area and frequency of use. If chattering,
marks, water lines or wet spots are present, clean the
wiper blades or replace as necessary.
The wiper blades and wiper arms should be inspected
periodically, not just when wiper performance problems
are experienced. This inspection should include the
following points:
Wear or uneven edges
 Foreign material
 Hardening or cracking
 Deformation or fatigue
If a wiper blade or wiper arm is damaged, replace the
affected wiper arm or blade with a new unit. Do not
attempt to repair a wiper arm or blade that is damaged.
Front Wiper Blade Removal/Installation

FUSES
General Information
The fuses protect electrical systems against excessive
current.
When a device does not work, you must check the fuse
element inside the blade fuse for a break/melt.
Also, please be aware that using power outlets for
extended periods of time with the engine off may result in
vehicle battery discharge.

Blade Fuses

Underhood Fuses
The Power Distribution Center (PDC) is located in the
engine compartment near the battery. This center
contains cartridge fuses, mini-fuses, micro-fuses, circuit
breakers and relays. A label that identifies each
component is printed on the inside of the cover.
Before any procedure is done on the PDC, make sure
engine is turned off.
Remove the cover by unlatching the two locks located at
each side of the PDC cover, avoid using screwdrivers or
any other tool to remove the cover, since they may apply
excessive force and result in a broken/damaged part.
After service is done, secure the cover with its two locks.
NOTE:The function and amperage of the following fuses are
different, depending on vehicle trim level and content.
CAUTION!
Using a transmission fluid other than the manufacturer
recommended fluid may cause deterioration in
transmission shift quality and/or torque converter
shudder
Úpage 307.
WARNING!
When replacing a blown fuse, always use an appro -
priate replacement fuse with the same amp rating as
the original fuse. Never replace a fuse with another
fuse of higher amp rating. Never replace a blown
fuse with metal wires or any other material. Do not
place a fuse inside a circuit breaker cavity or vice
versa. Failure to use proper fuses may result in
serious personal injury, fire and/or property damage.
 Before replacing a fuse, make sure that the ignition
is off and that all the other services are switched off
and/or disengaged.
 If the replaced fuse blows again, contact an autho -
rized dealer.
 If a general protection fuse for safety systems (air
bag system, braking system), power unit systems
(engine system, transmission system) or steering
system blows, contact an authorized dealer.
