screw clockwise to firmly engage the jack saddle with the lift area of the sill flange.
• Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw clockwise. Raise the vehicle only until the tire just clears the surface and enough clearance is obtained to install the spare
tire.

Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the vehicle less stable and
cause an accident. It could slip off the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the
vehicle only enough to remove the tire.
• Remove the lug nuts, wheel cover (if equipped) and wheel.
• Position the spare wheel/tire on the vehicle and install the lug nuts with the cone-shaped end toward the wheel. Do NOT attempt to install a center cap or wheel
cover on the compact spare. Lightly tighten the lug nuts clockwise. To avoid the

Preparations for Jump-Start
• The battery in your vehicle is located between the left front headlight assemblyand the left front wheel splash shield. To allow jump-starting there are remote
battery posts located on the left side of the engine compartment.
WARNING!
• Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan whenever the hood is raised. It canstart anytime the ignition switch is on. You can be injured by moving fan blades.
• Remove any metal jewelry, such as watch bands or bracelets, that might make an inadvertent electrical contact. You could be seriously injured.
• Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can burn your skin or eyes and generate hydrogen gas which is flammable and explosive. Keep open flames or sparks
away from the battery.
• Set the parking brake, shift the automatic transmission into PARK and turn the ignition to LOCK.
• Turn off the heater, radio, and all unnecessaryelectrical acc essories.
• Remove the protective cover over the remote positive (+)battery post. To remove
the cover, press the locking tab and pull upward on the cover.
• If using another vehicle to jump-start the battery, park the vehicle within the jumper cables reach, set the parking brake and make sure the ignition is OFF.
WARNING!
WARNING! Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as this could establish a
ground connection and personal injury could result.
Jump-Starting Procedure
WARNING!
Failure to follow this procedure could result in personal injury or property damage
due to battery explosion.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these procedures could result in damage to the charging system
of the booster vehicle or the discharged vehicle.
• Connect the positive (+)end of the jumper cable to the remote positive (+)post of
the discharged vehicle.
• Connect the opposite end of the positive (+)jumper cable to the positive (+)post
of the booster battery.

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

EVENT DATA RECORDER (EDR)
• In the event of an accident, your vehicle is designed to record up to five seconds ofspecific vehicle data parameters (see list below) in an event data recorder prior to
the moment of airbag deployment, or near deployment (if applicable), and up to a
quarter second of either high-speed deceleration data or change in velocity during
and/or after airbag deployment or near-deployment. EDR data is ONLY recorded if
an airbag deploys, or nearly deploys, and is otherwise unavailable.
NOTE:
• A near-deployment event occurs when the airbag sensor detects severe vehicle deceleration usually indicative of a crash, but not severe enough to warrant airbag
deployment.
• Under certain circumstances, EDR data may not be recorded (e.g., loss of battery power).
• In conjunction with other data gathered during a complete accident investigation, the electronic data may be used by Chrysler Group LLC and others to learn more
about the possible cau ses of crashesand associated injuries i n order toassessand
improve vehicle performance. In addition to crash investigations initiated by
Chrysler Group LLC, such investigations may be requested by customers, insurance
carriers, government officials, and professional crash researchers, such as those
associated with universities, and with hospital and insurance organizations.
• In the event that an investigation is undertaken by Chrysler Group LLC (regardless of initiative), the company or its designated representative will first obtain
permission of the appropriate custodial entity for the vehicle (usually the vehicle
owner or lessee) before accessing the electronic data stor ed, unlessordered to
image the data by a court with legal jurisdiction (i.e., pursuant to a warrant). A copy
of the data will be provided to the cust odial entity upon request.General data that
does not identify particular vehicles or crashes may be released for incorporation
in aggregate crash databases, such as those maintained by the U.S. government
and various states. Data of a potentially sensitive nature, such as would identify a
particular driver, vehicle, or crash, will be tr eated confidentially. Confidential data
will not be disclosed by Chrysler Group LLC to any third party except when:
• Used for resear ch purposes, such as to match data with a particular crash record
in an aggregate database, provided confidentiality of personal data is thereafter
preserved.
• Used in defense of litigation involving a Chrysler Group LLC product.
• Requested by police under a legal warrant.
• Otherwise required by law.
Data parameters that are recorded:
• Diagnostic trouble code(s) and warning light status for electronically-controlled safety systems, including the airbag system.
• Vehicle speed, Engine RPM, Brake switch status, Pedal position, and other parameters depending on vehicle configuration.

MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE

Using Lift Kits
• Use of lift kits with some vehicle/tirecombinations can cause instability or
loss of control. When changing tire
sizes, always consult an installer for
optimum rim width and carefully
check vehicle/tire clearances.
Check Your Tires For Damage
• Frequent (at least monthly)inspection of your tires for signs of
damage, uneven tread wear and
their general condition is important
for safety. Impacts, penetrations,
cracks, knots, bulges or air loss
always require tire removal and
expert inspection.
Tire Service Life
• The service life of a tire is dependentupon varying factors including, but
not limited to, your driving style, tire
pressure and distance driven.
WARNING!
Tires and the spare tire should be
replaced after six years, regardless
of the remaining tread. Failure to
follow this warning can result in
sudden tire failure. You could lose
control and have an accident
resulting in serious injury or death.
• Keep dismounted tires in a cool, dry place with as little exposure to the
light as possible.
• Protect tires from contact with oil, grease, and gasoline.
NOTE: All tire warranties are made by
the tire manufacturer. Tires are not
covered under your Chrysler New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
