(Continued)
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 elec-
trical 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.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 an authorized
dealer through Mopar parts.
External racks do not increase the total load
carrying capacity of the vehicle. Be sure that
the total occupant and luggage load inside
the vehicle, plus the load on the luggage
rack, do not exceed the maximum vehicle
load capacity.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Do not insert any objects into the recep -
tacles.
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.
WARNING!
Cargo must be securely tied down before
driving your vehicle. Improperly secured
loads can fly off the vehicle, particularly at
high speeds, resulting in personal injury or
property damage. Follow the roof rack
cautions when carrying cargo on your roof
rack.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the roof rack and
vehicle, do not exceed the maximum roof
rack load capacity. Always distribute
heavy loads as evenly as possible and
secure the load appropriately.
Long loads, which extend over the wind -
shield, should be secured to both the
front and rear of the vehicle.
Place a blanket or other protection
between the surface of the roof and the
load.

ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION SYSTEMS — IF
EQUIPPED
Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF) — 2.0L T4
Petrol Versions Only
The Gasoline Particulate Filter is a mechan-
ical filter, integral to the exhaust system,
which physically traps carbon particles
present in the exhaust gases of 2.0L T4
petrol engines.
The particulate filter is needed to eliminate
almost all carbon particle emissions in
compliance with current/future regulations
and standards. Since this filter physically traps particulates,
it must be cleaned (regenerated) during
normal driving operation to remove carbon
particles. The regeneration procedure is
controlled automatically by the engine
control unit according to the filter conditions
and car use conditions.
The following may occur during regeneration:
increased levels of noise vibration and harsh
-
ness (NVH) and reduced engine perfor -
mance.
Dedicated messages can appear in the
instrument cluster display as a result of the
condition of the filter. Refer to the opening
paragraph of the "Warning Lights And
Messages" section for further information.
Travel at reduced speeds and turn
corners carefully when carrying large or
heavy loads on the roof rack. Wind
forces, due to natural causes or nearby
truck traffic, can add sudden upward
loads. It is recommended to not carry
large flat loads, such as wood panels or
surfboards, which may result in damage
to the cargo or your vehicle.
Load should always be secured to cross
bars first, with tie down loops used as
additional securing points if needed. Tie
loops are intended as supplementary tie
down points only. Do not use ratcheting
mechanisms with the tie loops. Check
the straps frequently to be sure that the
load remains securely attached.
CAUTION! (Continued)

The SABICs (if equipped with SABICs) may
help reduce the risk of partial or complete
ejection of vehicle occupants through side
windows in certain side impact events.Side Impacts
The Side Air Bags are designed to activate in
certain side impacts. The Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC) determines
whether the deployment of the Side Air Bags
in a particular impact event is appropriate,
based on the severity and type of collision.
The side impact sensors aid the ORC in
determining the appropriate response to
impact events. The system is calibrated to
deploy the Side Air Bags on the impact side
of the vehicle during impacts that require
Side Air Bag occupant protection. In side
impacts, the Side Air Bags deploy inde
-
pendently; a left side impact deploys the left
Side Air Bags only and a right-side impact
deploys the right Side Air Bags only. Vehicle
damage by itself is not a good indicator of
whether or not Side Air Bags should have
deployed.
The Side Air Bags will not deploy in all side
collisions, including some collisions at
certain angles, or some side collisions that
do not impact the area of the passenger
compartment. The Side Air Bags may deploy
during angled or offset frontal collisions
where the front air bags deploy. Side Air Bags are a supplement to the seat
belt restraint system. Side Air Bags deploy in
less time than it takes to blink your eyes.
WARNING!
Do not mount equipment, or stack
luggage or other cargo up high enough to
block the deployment of the SABICs.
The trim covering above the side
windows where the SABIC and its
deployment path are located should
remain free from any obstructions.
In order for the SABICs to work as
intended, do not install any accessory
items in your vehicle which could alter
the roof. Do not add an aftermarket
sunroof to your vehicle. Do not add roof
racks that require permanent attach
-
ments (bolts or screws) for installation
on the vehicle roof. Do not drill into the
roof of the vehicle for any reason.
WARNING!
Occupants, including children, who are
up against or very close to Side Air Bags
can be seriously injured or killed. Occu -
pants, including children, should never
lean on or sleep against the door, side
windows, or area where the side air bags
inflate, even if they are in an infant or
child restraint.
Seat belts (and child restraints where
appropriate) are necessary for your
protection in all collisions. They also
help keep you in position, away from an
inflating Side Air Bag. To get the best
protection from the Side Air Bags, occu -
pants must wear their seat belts properly
and sit upright with their backs against
the seats. Children must be properly
restrained in a child restraint or booster
seat that is appropriate for the size of the
child.

FUEL CONSUMPTION AND
CO
2 EMISSIONS

The fuel consumption and CO2 emission
figures declared by the manufacturer are
determined on the basis of the type-approval
tests laid down by the applicable standards in
the country where the vehicle is registered.

The type of route, traffic conditions, weather
conditions, driving style, general condition of
the vehicle, trim level/equipment/ accesso -
ries, use of the climate control system,
vehicle load, presence of roof racks and other
situations that adversely affect the aerody -
namics or wind resistance lead to different
fuel consumption values than those
measured. The fuel consumption will only become more
regular after driving the first 1,864 miles
(3,000 km).
To find the specific fuel consumption and
CO
2 emission figures for this vehicle, please
refer to the data in the Certificate of Confor -
mity (if equipped), and the related documen -
tation that accompanies the vehicle (if
equipped).
