When a valid kicking motion is completed,
the liftgate will chime, the hazard lights will
flash and the liftgate will open after approxi-
mately one second, or close after approxi-
mately three seconds. This assumes all op-
tions are enabled in the radio.
NOTE:
• Opening or closing the Hands-Free Liftgate
requires a valid Passive Entry key fob within
5 ft (1.5 m) of the door handle. If a valid
Passive Entry key fob is not within 5 ft
(1.5 m), the liftgate will not respond to any
kicks.
• The Hands-Free Liftgate feature may be
turned on or off in Uconnect Settings. Refer
to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” in
the Owner’s Manual for further information.
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature should be

Manual Car Wash, and Vehicle Service.NOTE:
The Hands-free liftgate feature can be acti-
vated by any metallic object making a similar
in-and-out motion under the rear bumper,
such as cleaning using a metal broom.
NOTE:
• The Hands-Free Liftgate will only operate
when the transmission is in PARK.
• If anything obstructs the Hands-Free lift-
gate while it is opening or closing, the
liftgate will automatically reverse to the
closed/open position, provided it meets
sufficient resistance.
• There are pinch sensors attached to the
side of the liftgate opening. Light pressure
anywhere along these strips will cause the
liftgate to return to the open position.
• If the power liftgate encounters multiple
obstructions within the same cycle, the
system will automatically stop. If this oc-
curs, the liftgate must be operated manu-
ally.• The power liftgate will release, but not
power open, in temperatures below −12° F
(−24° C). Be sure to remove any buildup of
snow or ice from the liftgate before opening
the liftgate.
• If the liftgate is left open for an extended
period of time, the liftgate may need to be
closed manually to reset power liftgate
functionality.
WARNING!
• Driving with the liftgate open can allow

Power Inverter — If Equipped
There is a 230 Volt, 150 Watt inverter outlet
located on the back of the center console to
convert DC current to AC current. This outlet
can power cellular phones, electronics and
other low power devices requiring power up to
150 Watts. Certain high-end game consoles
exceed this power limit, as will most power
tools.
To turn on the power inverter outlet, simply
plug in the device. The outlet automatically
turns off when the device is unplugged.The power inverter is designed with built-in
overload protection. If the power rating of
150 Watts is exceeded, the power inverter
automatically shuts down. Once the electri-
cal device has been removed from the outlet
the inverter should automatically reset. To
avoid overloading the circuit, check the
power ratings on electrical devices prior to
using the inverter.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
• Do not insert any objects into the
receptacles.
• Do not touch with wet hands.
• Close the lid when not in use.
• If this outlet is mishandled, it may
cause an electric shock and failure.
ROOF LUGGAGE RACK — IF
EQUIPPED
The load carried on the roof, when equipped
with a luggage rack, must not exceed 150 lbs
(68 kg), and it should be uniformly distrib-
uted over the cargo area.
Crossbars should always be used whenever
cargo is placed on the roof rack. Check the
straps frequently to be sure that the load
remains securely attached.
NOTE:
Crossbars can be purchased at your autho-
rized dealer through Mopar parts.

Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Messages
This engine meets all required diesel engine
emissions standards. To achieve these emis-
sions standards, your vehicle is equipped
with a state-of-the-art engine and exhaust
system. These systems are seamlessly inte-
grated into your vehicle and managed by the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The PCM
manages engine combustion to allow the ex-
haust system’s catalyst to trap and burn Par-
ticulate Matter (PM) pollutants, with no input
or interaction on your part.

Changing the FCW status to the “Near” set-
ting, allows the system to warn the driver of a
possible collision with the vehicle in front
when the distance between the vehicle in the
front is much closer. This setting provides
less reaction time than the “Far” and “Me-
dium” settings, which allows for a more dy-
namic driving experience.
NOTE:
• Changing the FCW status to “Only Warn-
ing” prevents the system from providing
limited active braking, or additional brake
support if the driver is not braking ad-
equately in the event of a potential frontal
collision, but maintains the audible and
visual warnings.
• Changing the FCW status to “Off” prevents
the system from providing autonomous
braking, or additional brake support if the
driver is not braking adequately in the event
of a potential frontal collision.
• The system will NOT retain the last setting
selected by the driver after ignition shut
down. The system will reset to the default
setting when the vehicle is restarted.• FCW may not react to irrelevant objects
such as overhead objects, ground reflec-
tions, objects not in the path of the vehicle,
stationary objects that are far away, oncom-
ing traffic, or leading vehicles with the
same or higher rate of speed.
• FCW will be disabled like ACC, with the
unavailable screens.
FCW Limited Warning
If the instrument cluster display reads “ACC/
FCW Limited Functionality” or “ACC/FCW
Limited Functionality Clean Front Wind-
shield” momentarily, there may be a condi-
tion that limits FCW functionality. Although
the vehicle is still drivable under normal
conditions, the active braking may not be
fully available. Once the condition that lim-
ited the system performance is no longer
present, the system will return to its full
performance state. If the problem persists,
see an authorized dealer.
Service FCW Warning
If the system turns off, and the instrument
cluster display reads:
• ACC/FCW Unavailable Service Required• Cruise/FCW Unavailable Service Required
This indicates there is an internal system
fault. Although the vehicle is still drivable
under normal conditions, have the system
checked by an authorized dealer.
Pedestrian Emergency Braking (PEB) — If
Equipped
The Pedestrian Emergency Braking (PEB) is a
sub-system of the FCW system which pro-
vides the driver with audible and visual warn-
ings in the instrument cluster display, and
may apply automatic braking when it detects
a potential frontal collision with a pedestrian.
If a PEB event begins at a speed below
37 mph (60 km/h), the system may provide
braking to mitigate the potential collision
with a pedestrian. If the PEB event stops the
vehicle completely, the system will hold the
vehicle at a standstill for two seconds and
then release the brakes. When the system
determines a collision with the pedestrian in
front of you is no longer probable, the warning
message will be deactivated.
The minimum speed for PEB activation is
3 mph (5 km/h).
93

WARNING!
Pedestrian Emergency Braking (PEB) is
not intended to avoid a collision on its
own, nor can PEB detect every type of
potential collision with a pedestrian. The
driver has the responsibility to avoid a
collision by controlling the vehicle via
braking and steering. Failure to follow this
warning could lead to serious injury or
death.
Turning PEB On Or Off
NOTE:
The default status of PEB is “On.” This
allows the system to warn you of a possible
frontal collision with the pedestrian.
The PEB button is located in the Uconnect
display in the Controls settings. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” in the
Owner’s Manual for further information.
To turn the PEB system off, push the “Pedes-
trian Emergency Braking” button once.
To turn the PEB system back on, push the
“Pedestrian Emergency Braking” button
again.Changing the PEB status to “Off” deactivates
the system, so no warning or active braking
will be available in case of a possible frontal
collision with the pedestrian.
NOTE:
The PEB system will NOT retain the last
setting selected by the driver after ignition
shut down. The system will reset to the de-
fault setting when the vehicle is restarted.
Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS)
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS)
will warn the driver of a low tire pressure
based on the vehicle recommended cold
placard pressure.
NOTE:
The system only warns the tire pressure is
low: it is not able to inflate them.
The tire pressure will vary with temperature
by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F
(6.5°C). This means that when the outside
temperature decreases, the tire pressure will
decrease. Tire pressure should always be set
based on cold inflation tire pressure. This is
defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle
has not been driven for at least three hours, ordriven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after a three
hour period. The cold tire inflation pressure
must not exceed the maximum inflation pres-
sure molded into the tire sidewall. The tire
pressure will also increase as the vehicle is
driven. This is normal and there should be no
adjustment for this increased pressure.
Refer to “Tires” in “Servicing And Mainte-
nance” for information on how to properly
inflate the vehicle’s tires.
The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire
pressure if the tire pressure falls below the
low-pressure warning limit for any reason,
including low temperature effects and natu-
ral pressure loss through the tire.
The TPMS will continue to warn the driver of
low tire pressure as long as the condition
exists, and will not turn off until the tire
pressure is at or above the recommended
cold placard pressure. Once the low tire pres-
sure warning (Tire Pressure Monitoring Tell-
tale Light) illuminates, you must increase the
tire pressure to the recommended cold plac-
ard pressure in order for the “Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light” to turn off.

to an authorized dealer. Only manufac-
turer approved seat accessories may be
used. If it is necessary to modify the air
bag system for persons with disabilities,
contact an authorized dealer.
Event Data Recorder (EDR)
This vehicle is equipped with an event data
recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR
is to record, in certain crash or near crash-
like situations, such as an air bag deployment
or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist
in understanding how a vehicle’s systems
performed. The EDR is designed to record
data related to vehicle dynamics and safety
systems for a short period of time, typically
30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is
designed to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were
operating;
