WARNING: Operating, servicing and maintaining a passenger vehicle or off-highway
motor vehicle can expose you to chemicals including engine exhaust, carbon monoxide,
phthalates, and lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and
birth defects or other reproductive harm. To minimize exposure, avoid breathing exhaust,
do not idle the engine except as necessary, service your vehicle in a well-ventilated area
and wear gloves or wash your hands frequently when servicing your vehicle. For more
information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/passenger-vehicle.
The driver’s primary responsibility is the safe operation of the vehicle. Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control, resulting in an accident
and personal injury. FCA US LLC strongly recommends that the driver use extreme caution when using any device or feature that may take their attention
off the road. Use of any electrical devices, such as cellular telephones, computers, portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices by the driver while
the vehicle is moving is dangerous and could lead to a serious accident. Texting while driving is also dangerous and should never be done while the vehicle
is moving. If you find yourself unable to devote your full attention to vehicle operation, pull off the road to a safe location and stop your vehicle. Some states
or provinces prohibit the use of cellular telephones or texting while driving. It is always the driver’s responsibility to comply with all local laws.

Rotate the end of the lever upward to the first
detent past the intermittent settings for low-speed
wiper operation. Rotate the end of the lever
upward to the second detent past the intermittent
settings for high-speed wiper operation.
Intermittent Wipers
Use the intermittent wiper when weather
conditions make a single wiping cycle, with a
variable pause between cycles, desirable. Rotate
the end of the lever to the first detent position for
one of four intermittent settings. The delay cycle
can be set anywhere between 1 to 18 seconds.
NOTE:The wiper delay times depend on vehicle speed. If
the vehicle is moving less than 10 mph (16 km/h),
delay times will be doubled. Windshield Washers
To use the washer, pull the lever toward you and
hold until desired spray is reached. If the lever is
pulled while in the delay range, the wiper will start
and continue to operate for two or three wipe
cycles after the lever is released. Then, the
intermittent interval previously selected will
resume.
If the lever is pulled while in the off position, the
wipers will operate for two or three wipe cycles.
Then, the wipers will turn off.
NOTE:As a protective measure, the washer will stop if the
switch is held for more than 20 seconds. Once the
switch is released the washer will resume normal
operation.
Mist
Push upward on the wiper lever to activate a single
wipe to clear off-road mist or spray from a passing
vehicle. As long as the lever is held up, the wipers
will continue to operate.
NOTE:The mist feature does not activate the washer
pump; therefore, no washer fluid will be sprayed on
the windshield. The washer function must be used
in order to spray the windshield with washer fluid.
For information on wiper care and replacement,
see Ú
page 374.
CLIMATE CONTROLS
The Climate Control system allows you to regulate
the temperature, air flow, and direction of air
circulating throughout the vehicle. The controls are
located on the touchscreen and on the instrument
panel below the radio.
CAUTION!
In cold weather, always turn off the wiper switch
and allow the wipers to return to the park
position before turning off the engine. If the
wiper switch is left on and the wipers freeze to
the windshield, damage to the wiper motor may
occur when the vehicle is restarted.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield
could lead to a collision. You might not see other
vehicles or other obstacles. To avoid sudden
icing of the windshield during freezing weather,
warm the windshield with the defroster before
and during windshield washer use.
