INTRODUCTION
Dear Customer,
Congratulations on selecting your new vehicle. Be assured that it represents precision workmanship, distinctive styling, and high quality. This Owner's
Ma

nual has been prepared with the assistance of service and engineering specialists to acquaint you with the operation and maintenance of your
vehicle. It is supplemented by customer-oriented documents. Within this information, you will find a description of the services that FCA US LLC offers
to its customers as well as the details of the terms and conditions for maintaining its validity. Please take the time to read all of these publications
carefully before driving your vehicle for the first time. Following the instructions, recommendations, tips, and important warnings in this manual will help
assure safe and enjoyable operation of your vehicle.

This Owner's Manual describes all versions of this vehicle. Options and equipment dedicated to specific markets or versions are not expressly indicated in
t h

e text. Therefore, you should only consider the information which is related to the trim level, engine, and version that you have purchased. Any content
introduced throughout the Owner's Information, that may or may not be applicable to your vehicle, will be identified with the wording “If Equipped”. All data
contained in this publication are intended to help you use your vehicle in the best possible way. FCA US LLC aims at a constant improvement of the vehicles
produced. For this reason, it reserves the right to make changes to the model described for technical and/or commercial reasons. For further information,
contact an authorized dealer.

When it comes to service, remember that authorized dealers know your vehicle best, have factory-trained technicians and genuine MOPAR® parts, and
c a

re about your satisfaction.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
IDENTIFICATION DATA
VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is on
the left front corner of the instrument panel and
is visible from outside of the vehicle through the
windshield.

Windshield VIN Location

NOTE:
It is illegal to remove or alter the VIN.
BRAKE SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with dual
hydraulic brake systems. If either of
t h

e two hydraulic systems loses
normal capability, the remaining
system will still function. However, there will
be some loss of overall braking effectiveness.
T h

is will be evident by increased pedal travel
during application and greater pedal force
required to slow or stop the vehicle. In addition,
if the malfunction is caused by a leak in the
hydraulic system, the “Brake Warning Light” will
turn on as the brake fluid level drops in the
master cylinder.
In the event power assist is lost for any reason
( i

.e., repeated brake applications with the
engine off) the brakes will still function.
However, the effort required to brake the
vehicle will be much greater than that required
with the power system operating.
WARNING!
Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure
and possibly a collision. Driving with your
foot resting or riding on the brake pedal can
result in abnormally high brake tempera -
tures, excessive lining wear, and possible
b r

ake damage. You would not have your full
braking capacity in an emergency.
Driving a vehicle with the “Brake Warning
Light” on is dangerous. A significant
decrease in braking performance or vehicle
stability during braking may occur. It will
take you longer to stop the vehicle or will
make your vehicle harder to control. You
could have a collision. Have the vehicle
checked immediately.
