Sealing A Tire With Tire Service Kit
(A) Whenever You Stop To Use Tire Service Kit:
1.Pull over to a safe location and turn on the vehicle’s Hazard Warning flashers.
2.Verify that the valve stem (on the wheel with the deflated tire) is in a position that is
near to the ground.This will allow the Tire Service Kit Hoses (6) and (7) to reach the
valve stem and keep the Tire Service Kit flat on the ground.This will provide the best
positioning of the kit when injecting the sealant into the deflated tire and running the
air pump.Move the vehicle as necessary to place the valve stem in this position be-
fore proceeding.
3.Place the transmission in PARK (auto transmission) or in Gear (manual transmission)
and place the ignition in the OFF position.
4.Set the parking brake.
(B) Setting Up To Use Tire Service Kit:
1.Push in the Mode Select Knob (5) and turn to the Sealant Mode position.
2.Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) and then remove the cap from the fitting at the end of
the hose.
3.Place the Tire Service Kit flat on the ground next to the deflated tire.
4.Remove the cap from the valve stem and then screw the fitting at the end of the
Sealant Hose (6) onto the valve stem.
5.Uncoil the Power Plug (8) and insert the plug into the vehicle’s 12 Volt power outlet.
NOTE:
Do not remove foreign objects (e.g., screws or nails) from the tire.
(C) Injecting Tire Service Kit Sealant Into The Deflated Tire:
•Always start the engine before turning ON the Tire Service Kit.
NOTE:
Manual transmission vehicles must have the parking brake engaged and the gear selector
in NEUTRAL.
•After pushing the Power Button (4), the sealant (white fluid) will flow from the Sealant
Bottle (1) through the Sealant Hose (6) and into the tire.
NOTE:
Sealant may leak out through the puncture in the tire.

TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE
This section describes procedures for towing a disabled vehicle using a commercial towing
service.
Towing Condition Wheels OFF The GroundSINGLE-SPEED
TRANSMISSION
Flat Tow NONE
NOT ALLOWED
Wheel LiftRear
NOT ALLOWED
Front OK
Flatbed
ALLOK
This vehicle must be towed with the front wheels OFF the ground.
If you must use the accessories (wipers, defrosters, etc.) while being towed, the ignition
must be in the ON/RUN position.
If the ignition key is unavailable, or the battery is discharged, see “Manual Park Release” in
“What To Do In Emergencies” for instructions on shifting the transmission out of PARK
in order to move the vehicle.
CAUTION!
•Do not use sling-type equipment when towing.Vehicle damage may occur.
•When securing the vehicle to a flatbed truck, do not attach to front or rear sus-
pension components.Damage to your vehicle may result from improper towing.
ENHANCED ACCIDENT RESPONSE SYSTEM
In the event of an impact causing air bag deployment, if the communication network and
power remains intact, depending on the nature of the event, the ORC will determine
whether to have the Enhanced Accident Response System perform the following func-
tions:
•Disable the high voltage battery.
•Place the transmission into PARK.
•Flash hazard lights as long as the 12 Volt battery has power or until the ignition key is
turned off.
•Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the 12 Volt battery has power
or until the ignition key is removed.
•Unlock the doors automatically.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
100

In order to move your vehicle to the side of the road the transmission must be in NEU-
TRAL and the 12 Volt system must be functional.To place the transmission into NEU-
TRAL you must turn the ignition OFF and then back to the RUN position (cycle the igni-
tion) then push the NEUTRAL button.
NOTE:
The high voltage battery will remain disabled after an Enhanced Accident Response Event
and must be reset by your authorized dealership.
FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow, it can often be moved using a rock-
ing motion.Turn the steering wheel right and left to clear the area around the front
wheels.Then shift back and forth between DRIVE and REVERSE while gently pushing the
accelerator.Use the least amount of accelerator pedal pressure that will maintain the
rocking motion, without spinning the wheels.
NOTE:
Push the “ESC Off ” switch, to place the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system in “Par-
tial Off ” mode, before rocking the vehicle.Refer to “Electronic Brake Control” in “Start-
ing And Operating” on the DVD for further information.Once the vehicle has been
freed, push the “ESC Off ” switch again to restore “ESC On” mode.
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.
•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.
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 lon-
ger than 30 seconds continuously without stopping when you are stuck and do not let
anyone near a spinning wheel, no matter what the speed.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
101

CAUTION!
Because of the reduced ground clearance, do not take your vehicle through an auto-
matic car wash with a compact or limited-use temporary spare installed.Damage to the
vehicle may result.
Spare Tire Matching Original Equipped Tire And Wheel — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with a spare tire and wheel equivalent in look and func-
tion to the original equipment tire and wheel found on the front or rear axle of your
vehicle.This spare tire may be used in the tire rotation for your vehicle.If your vehicle
has this option, refer to an authorized tire dealer for the recommended tire rotation
pattern.
Compact Spare Tire — If Equipped
The compact spare is for temporary emergency use only.You can identify if your vehicle
is equipped with a compact spare by looking at the spare tire description on the Tire and
Loading Information Placard located on the driver’s side door opening or on the sidewall
of the tire.Compact spare tire descriptions begin with the letter “T” or “S” preceding
the size designation.Example: T145/80D18 103M.
T, S = Temporary Spare Tire
Since this tire has limited tread life, the original equipment tire should be repaired (or
replaced) and reinstalled on your vehicle at the first opportunity.
Do not install a wheel cover or attempt to mount a conventional tire on the compact
spare wheel, since the wheel is designed specifically for the compact spare tire.Do not
install more than one compact spare tire and wheel on the vehicle at any given time.
WARNING!
Compact spares are for temporary emergency use only.With these spares, do not drive
more than 50 mph (80 km/h).Temporary use spares have limited tread life.When the
tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the temporary use spare tire needs to be
replaced.Be sure to follow the warnings, which apply to your spare.Failure to do so
could result in spare tire failure and loss of vehicle control.

114

Full Size Spare — If Equipped
The full size spare is for temporary emergency use only.This tire may look like the origi-
nally equipped tire on the front or rear axle of your vehicle, but it is not.This spare tire
may have limited tread life.When the tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the
temporary use full size spare tire needs to be replaced.Since it is not the same as your
original equipment tire, replace (or repair) the original equipment tire and reinstall on the
vehicle at the first opportunity.
Limited Use Spare — If Equipped
The limited-use spare tire is for temporary emergency use only.This tire is identified by a
label located on the limited-use spare wheel.This label contains the driving limitations for
this spare.This tire may look like the original equipped tire on the front or rear axle of
your vehicle, but it is not.Installation of this limited-use spare tire affects vehicle handling.
Since it is not the same as your original equipment tire, replace (or repair) the original
equipment tire and reinstall on the vehicle at the first opportunity.
WARNING!
Limited-use spares are for emergency use only.Installation of this limited-use spare tire
affects vehicle handling.With this tire, do not drive more than the speed listed on the
limit-use spare wheel.Keep inflated to the cold tire inflation pressures listed on your
Tire and Loading Information Placard located on the driver’s side B-Pillar or the rear
edge of the driver’s side door.Replace (or repair) the original equipment tire at the
first opportunity and reinstall it on your vehicle.Failure to do so could result in loss of
vehicle control.
MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE

Wheel And Wheel Trim Care
All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome plated wheels, should be
cleaned regularly with a mild soap and water to prevent corrosion.
To remove heavy soil and/or excessive brake dust, use MOPAR Wheel Cleaner or equiva-
lent or select a non-abrasive, non-acidic cleaner.
CAUTION!
Do not use scouring pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, or metal polishes.Do not use
oven cleaner.These products may damage the wheel's protective finish.Avoid automatic
car washes that use acidic solutions or harsh brushes that may damage the wheel's pro-
tective finish.Only MOPAR Wheel Cleaner or equivalent is recommended.
TIRE ROTATION RECOMMENDATIONS
NOTE:
The front and rear wheels are different sizes and cannot be used in place of each other.
Rotate the wheels “side-to-side” as shown in the diagram.
The tires on the front and rear of your
vehicle operate at different loads and per-
form different steering, driving, and braking
functions.For these reasons, they wear at
unequal rates.
These effects can be reduced by timely
rotation of tires.The benefits of rotation
are especially worthwhile with aggressive
tread designs such as those on all season
type tires.Rotation will increase tread life, help to maintain mud, snow and wet traction
levels, and contribute to a smooth, quiet ride.
Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for the proper maintenance intervals.The reasons
for any rapid or unusual wear should be corrected prior to rotation being performed.
