GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

PARKVIEW REAR
BACKUP CAMERA —
IF EQUIPPED Operation
The camera is located on the trunk lid,
above the license plate.
Switching The Display To Rear View
Camera Mode:
Place the gear selector in the REVERSE
position, after the ignition is turned to
ON, to switch the display to rear-view
camera mode.
Note:
When the gear selector is moved
from the REVERSE position and put in
any other position, the screen returns
to the previous display mode.
When parking in REVERSE, take
care over obstacles that may be above
or under the camera’s display range. When the display is cold, the
images 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 misaligned.
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.
If the vehicle has been involved in a
frontal, lateral or rear collision, the rear
parking camera’s alignment (location or
installation angle) may have been altered.
Contact a authorized dealer.
If the display shows "no video signal",
there may be a problem with the camera.
Contact an authorized dealer.07040110-124-008AB

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 Fuel Filler
Door Release
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.
In this case, the fuel filler door can be
opened using the following procedure
as an emergency measure:
1. Open the trunk and pull the center
section of the plastic fastener and
remove the fastener. 2. Partially peel back the cover inside
the trunk, then pull the emergency
release lever. 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. 08100100-121-002

STARTING AND OPERATING

For more traction in starting on
slippery surfaces such as ice or packed
snow, use sand, rock salt, chains,
carpeting, or other nonslip material
under the rear wheels.
Note: Use snow chains only on the
rear wheels.
Floor Mat Safety
Information
Always use floor mats designed to fit
the footwell of your vehicle. Use only
floor mats that leave the pedal area
unobstructed and that are firmly
secured so that they cannot slip out of
position and interfere with the pedals or
impair safe operation of your vehicle in
other ways. 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 attach your 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.04090400-USA-001

Failure to use proper fuses may result in
serious personal injury, fire and/or property
damage.
Before replacing a fuse, make sure that
the ignition is off and that all the other
services are switched off and/or
disengaged.
If the replaced fuse blows again, contact
an authorized dealer.

power unit systems (engine system,
transmission system) or steering system
blows, contact an authorized dealer.
Your vehicle's electrical system is
protected by fuses.
If any lights, accessories, or controls do
