Engine Air Cleaner Filter Selection
The quality of replacement engine air cleaner
filters varies considerably. Only high quality
filters should be used to ensure most efficient
service. Mopar engine air cleaner filters are a
high quality filter and are recommended.
T/A Air Filter Maintenance — If Equipped
Clean Engine Air Filter
The scheduled air filter cleaning interval is
30,000 miles (48,280 km), or if in a dusty
environment the engine air filter should be
checked periodically to ensure optimal air flow.
Cleaning your engine air filter with the
recommended Mopar Performance Air Filter
Service Kit is not required if you can still see any
part the wire screen on the entire air filter
regardless of how dirty it may appear. When any
part of the wire screen is no longer visible on the
air filter, that is an indication it is time to clean
the air filter.

1. Spray the air filter with the recommended
Mopar air filter cleaner and let sit for at
least 10 minutes to loosen dirt, before
rinsing.

NOTE:
Never use strong detergents, high pressure, or
gasoline on air filter. 2. Rinse the air filter with cool low-pressure
water applied from the inside (clean side)
out in order to flush the dirt out of the filter.
Continue to rinse the filter until all traces of
the cleaner have been removed.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to repeat steps 1 and 2 if
the air filter is not completely clean.
3. After rinsing the air filter, gently shake off the excess water and allow air filter to dry
naturally. Do not apply oil until air filter is
completely dry.
NOTE:
Do not use forced air pressure as it may
damage the filtering capabilities of the filter’s
microfibers and also void its warranty.
4. Using the Mopar Performance Air Filter Service Kit, spray oil evenly along the crown
of each filter pleat holding the nozzle about
3 inches (76 mm) away from the air filter.
One spray per 2 square inches
(1,290 square mm) of air filter. With one
complete coat of oil, let it wick (saturate) for
about 20 minutes, and if required touch up
any light areas on either side of the filter.WARNING!
The air induction system (air cleaner, hoses,
etc.) can provide a measure of protection in
the case of engine backfire. Do not remove
the air induction system (air cleaner, hoses,
etc.) unless such removal is necessary for
repair or maintenance. Make sure that no
one is near the engine compartment before
starting the vehicle with the air induction
system (air cleaner, hoses, etc.) removed.
Failure to do so can result in serious personal
injury.

268SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
Fluid Level Check
The fluid level is preset at the factory and does
not require adjustment under normal operating
conditions. Routine fluid level checks are not
required; therefore the transmission has no
dipstick. An authorized dealer can check your
transmission fluid level using special service
tools. If you notice fluid leakage or transmission
malfunction, visit an authorized dealer
immediately to have the transmission fluid level
checked. Operating the vehicle with an
improper fluid level can cause severe
transmission damage.
Fluid And Filter Changes
Under normal operating conditions, the fluid
installed at the factory will provide satisfactory
lubrication for the life of the vehicle.
Routine fluid and filter changes are not
required. However, change the fluid and filter if
the fluid becomes contaminated (with water,
etc.), or if the transmission is disassembled for
any reason.
ALL WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) — IF
E
QUIPPED
The All Wheel Drive system consists of a
transfer case and front differential. The exterior
surface of these components should be
inspected for evidence of fluid leaks. Confirmed
leaks should be repaired as soon as possible.
The transfer case fluid fill/inspection plug is
located in the middle of the rear housing. To
inspect the transfer case fluid level, remove the
fill/inspection plug. The fluid level should be
even with the bottom of the hole. Use this plug
to add fluid as required. The front differential fill plug is located on the
outer cover near the halfshaft attachment. To
inspect the differential fluid level, remove the fill
plug. The fluid level should be even with or
slightly below the bottom of the hole.
Fluid Changes
Refer to “Scheduled Servicing” in “Servicing
And Maintenance” for the proper maintenance
intervals.
REAR AXLE
Fluid Level Check
Checking the fluid level while the vehicle is on
level ground and has been stationary for
15 minutes will improve the accuracy of the
fluid level reading.
Check the fluid level by removing the fill plug on
the axle. The fluid level should be 1-2.5 mm
below the fill plug. Add fluid, if necessary, to
maintain the proper level. Refer to “Fluids And
Lubricants” in "Servicing And Maintenance” for
further information.CAUTION!
If a transmission fluid leak occurs, visit an
authorized dealer immediately. Severe
transmission damage may occur. An
authorized dealer has the proper tools to
adjust the fluid level accurately.

Natural Speech
Your Uconnect Phone Voice system uses a
Natural Language Voice Recognition (VR)
engine.
Natural speech allows the user to speak
commands in phrases or complete sentences.
The system filters out certain non-word
utterances and sounds such as “ah” and “eh.”
The system handles fill-in words such as “I
would like to.”
The system handles multiple inputs in the same
phrase or sentence such as “make a phone
call” and “to Kelly Smith”. For multiple inputs in
the same phrase or sentence, the system
identifies the topic or context and provides the
associated follow-up prompt such as “Who do
you want to call?” in the case where a phone
call was requested but the specific name was
not recognized.
The system utilizes continuous dialog; when the
system requires more information from the user
it will ask a question to which the user can
respond without pushing the Voice Command
