Note:
To allow the passenger occupant
classification sensor to function
properly, do not place and sit on an
additional seat cushion on the
passengers seat. The sensor may not
function properly because the
additional seat cushion could cause
sensor interference.
If a small child is seated on the
passengers seat, the warning beep
may not operate.
Mexico
If the vehicle speed exceeds about
12 MPH (20 km/h) with the driver or
passengers seat belt unfastened, a
warning beep sounds continuously. If
the seat belt remains unfastened, the
beep sound stops once and then
continues for about 90 seconds. The
beep stops after the driver or
passengers seat belt is fastened.
Until a seat belt is fastened or a given
period of time has elapsed, the beep
sound will not stop even if the vehicle
speed falls below 12 MPH (20 km/h).
Warning!
Placing heavy items on the front
passenger seat may cause the front
passenger seat belt warning function to
operate depending on the weight of the

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

PARKVIEW REAR
BACKUP CAMERA —
IF EQUIPPED
Operation
The camera is located on the trunk.
Switching the display to rear-view
monitor mode
Put the gear selector in the REVERSE
(R) position when the ignition is
switched to ON to switch the display to
rear-view camera mode.
Note:
When the gear selector is moved
from the REVERSE (R) position and put
in any other position, the screen
returns to the previous display mode.
When parking, take the utmost care
over obstacles that may be above or
under the camera’s display range.
When the display is cold, the
images could scroll on the monitor or
the screen and could be more blurred
than usual, making it difficult to check
the conditions of the area around the
vehicle. Always use extreme caution
and verify the real conditions of the
area behind the vehicle with you own
eyes.
If water, snow or mud is deposited
on the camera lens, clean it with a soft
cloth. If this does not clean it, use a
mild detergent.
If the camera is subjected to abrupt
temperature changes (from hot to cold
or vice versa), the rear-view monitor
may not work properly.
When replacing tires, contact an
authorized dealer. Replacing the tires
can cause the guide lines that appear
on the display to be diverted.
Warning!
Always use extreme caution and verify
the real conditions of the area behind the
vehicle. Backing up while looking only at
the screen is dangerous and can lead to an
accident or collision with an object. The
rear-view monitor is simply a system to aid
reversing. The view on the display can
show a situation that differs from the real
one.
Do not use the rear-view monitor under
the following conditions:
Roads covered in ice or snow.
When snow chains are mounted or the
temporary space saver spare wheel is
fitted.
The rear trunk is not completely closed.
The vehicle is on a sloping road.
Using the rear-view monitor under the
conditions listed above is dangerous and
can cause damage to persons and/or the
vehicle.
Caution!
Do not apply excessive force to the
camera. You could alter the position and
angle of the camera. Do not disassemble,
modify or remove it as this could
compromise the seal.
The camera’s cover is made of plastic.
Do not apply degreasers, organic solvents,
wax or glass polish to the camera’s cover.
If some substance ends up on the cover,
clean it off immediately with a soft cloth.
Do not rub the cover too much, nor
polish it with abrasive compounds or hard
brushes. The cover could be damaged and
create image problems.

clockwise until a click is heard.
Warning!
Never have any smoking materials lit in
or near the vehicle when the gas cap is
removed or the tank is being filled.
Never add fuel when the engine is
running. This is in violation of most state
and federal fire regulations and may cause
the MIL to turn on.
A fire may result if gasoline is pumped
into a portable container that is inside of a
vehicle. You could be burned. Always place
gas containers on the ground while filling
Do not apply any object/plug to the end
of the filler which is not provided for the
vehicle. The use of non-compliant
objects/plugs could cause a pressure
increase inside the tank, resulting in
dangerous situations.
Do not use a mobile phone near the
refueling pump: risk of fire.
Emergency Flap Opening
If the battery is discharged, the fuel filler
door cannot be opened. In this case,
the fuel filler door can be opened by
taking care of the discharged battery
situation.
If the fuel filler door cannot be opened
even if the discharged battery situation
has been resolved, the electrical system
may have a malfunction.

VEHICLE LOADING
Certification Label
As required by National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration regulations, your
vehicle has a certification label affixed to
the driver's side door or pillar.
This label contains the month and year
of manufacture, Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR), Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR) front and rear, and
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). A
Month-Day-Hour (MDH) number is
included on this label and indicates the
Month, Day and Hour of manufacture.
The bar code that appears on the
bottom of the label is your VIN.
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR)
The GVWR is the total permissible
weight of your vehicle including driver,
passengers, vehicle, options and cargo.
The label also specifies maximum
capacities of front and rear axle
systems (GAWR). Total load must be
limited so GVWR and front and rear
GAWR are not exceeded.
Payload
The payload of a vehicle is defined as
the allowable load weight a truck can
carry, including the weight of the driver,
all passengers, options and cargo.
Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR)
The GAWR is the maximum permissible
load on the front and rear axles. The
load must be distributed in the cargo
area so that the GAWR of each axle is
not exceeded.
Each axle GAWR is determined by the
components in the system with the
lowest load carrying capacity (axle,
springs, tires or wheels). Heavier axles
or suspension components sometimes
specified by purchasers for increased
durability does not necessarily increase
the vehicle's GVWR.
Tire Size
The tire size on the Vehicle Certification
Label represents the actual tire size on
your vehicle. Replacement tires must be
equal to the load capacity of this tire
size.
Rim Size
This is the rim size that is appropriate
for the tire size listed.
Inflation Pressure
This is the cold tire inflation pressure for
your vehicle for all loading conditions up
to full GAWR.

Warning!
An improperly attached, damaged, folded,
or stacked floor mat, or damaged floor mat
fasteners may cause your floor mat to
interfere with the accelerator, brake, or
clutch pedals and cause a loss of vehicle
control. To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH:
ALWAYS securely attachyour floor
mat using the floor mat fasteners. DO NOT
install your floor mat upside down or turn
your floor mat over. Lightly pull to confirm
mat is secured using the floor mat
fasteners on a regular basis.
ALWAYS REMOVE THE EXISTING
FLOOR MAT FROM THE VEHICLE
before installing any other floor mat.
NEVER install or stack an additional floor
mat on top of an existing floor mat.
ONLY install floor mats designed to fit
your vehicle. NEVER install a floor mat that
cannot be properly attached and secured
to your vehicle. If a floor mat needs to be
replaced, only use a FCA approved floor
mat for the specific make, model, and year
of your vehicle.
ONLY use the driver’s side floor mat on
the driver’s side floor area. To check for
interference, with the vehicle properly parked
with the engine off, fully depress the
accelerator, the brake, and the clutch pedal
(if present) to check for interference. If your
floor mat interferes with the operation of any
pedal, or is not secure to the floor, remove
the floor mat from the vehicle and place the
floor mat in your trunk.
ONLY use the passenger’s side floor
mat on the passenger’s side floor area.
ALWAYS make sure objects cannot fall
or slide into the driver’s side floor area
when the vehicle is moving. Objects can
become trapped under accelerator, brake,
or clutch pedals and could cause a loss of
vehicle control.
NEVER place any objects under the
floor mat (e.g., towels, keys, etc.). These
objects could change the position of the
floor mat and may cause interference with
the accelerator, brake, or clutch pedals.
If the vehicle carpet has been removed
and re-installed, always properly attach
carpet to the floor and check the floor mat
fasteners are secure to the vehicle carpet.
Fully depress each pedal to check for
interference with the accelerator, brake, or
clutch pedals then re-install the floor mats.
It is recommended to only use mild
soap and water to clean your floor mats.
After cleaning, always check your floor mat
has been properly installed and is secured
to your vehicle using the floor mat
fasteners by lightly pulling mat.
Rocking The Vehicle
Note: Too much rocking may cause
engine overheating, transmission failure,
and tire damage.
If you must rock the vehicle to free it
from snow, sand or mud, depress the
accelerator slightly and slowly move the
gear selector from 1 (D) to R.
Warning!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous.
Forces generated by excessive wheel
speeds may cause damage, or even
failure, of the axle and tires. A tire could
explode and injure someone. Do not spin
your vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph
(48 km/h) or for longer than 30 seconds
continuously without stopping when you
are stuck and do not let anyone near a
spinning wheel, no matter what the speed.
Caution!
When “rocking” a stuck vehicle by
shifting between DRIVE and REVERSE, do
not spin the wheels faster than 15 mph
(24 km/h), or drivetrain damage may result.
Revving the engine or spinning the
wheels too fast may lead to transmission
overheating and failure. It can also damage
the tires. Do not spin the wheels above
30 mph (48 km/h) while in gear (no
transmission shifting occurring).
Winter Driving
Carry emergency gear, including tire
chains, window scraper, flares, a small
shovel, jumper leads, and a small bag
of sand or salt.
