has been raining on the passive entry
door handle, the unlock sensitivity can be
affected, resulting in a slower response
time.
• If you unlock the doors using the passive
entry door handles, but do NOT pull the
handle, the doors will automatically lock
after 30 seconds.
To Unlock From The Driver’s Side:
With a valid Passive Entry RKE transmitter
within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver’s door handle,
grab the driver’s front door handle to unlock the
driver’s door automatically. The interior door
panel lock knob will raise when the door is
unlocked. NOTE:
If “Unlock All Doors 1st Press” is pro-
grammed all doors will unlock when you
grab hold of the driver’s front door handle.
To select between “Unlock Driver Door 1st
Press” and “Unlock All Doors 1st Press”,

adjusting the belt to the desired length to
restrain a child seat or secure a large item in
a seat — if equipped
If you will be carrying children too small for
adult-sized seat belts, the seat belts or the
ISOFIX feature also can be used to hold infant
and child restraint systems. Refer to ISOFIX —
Child Seat Anchorage System for more infor-
mation.
NOTE:
The Advanced Front Airbags have a multi-
stage inflator design. This allows the airbag
to have different rates of inflation based on
the severity and type of collision.
Please pay close attention to the information in
this section. It tells you how to use your restraint
system properly, to keep you and your passen-
gers as safe as possible.
WARNING!
In an accident, you and your passengers can
suffer much greater injuries if you are not
properly buckled up. You can strike the interior
of your vehicle or other passengers, or you
can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be
sure you and others in your vehicle are buck-
led up properly.
Buckle up even though you are an excellent
driver, even on short trips. Someone on the
road may be a poor driver and cause an
accident that includes you. This can happen far
away from home or on your own street.
Research has shown that seat belts save lives,
and they can reduce the seriousness of injuries
in an accident. Some of the worst injuries
happen when people are thrown from the ve-
hicle. Seat belts reduce the possibility of ejec-
tion and the risk of injury caused by striking the
inside of the vehicle. Everyone in a motor
vehicle should be belted at all times.Lap/Shoulder BeltsAll seating positions in your vehicle are
equipped with lap/shoulder belts. The belt
webbing retractor is designed to lock during
very sudden stops or accidents. This feature
allows the shoulder part of the belt to move
freely with you under normal conditions. How-
ever, in an accident the belt will lock and
reduce the risk of you striking the inside of the
vehicle or being thrown out.
WARNING!
•Wearing a seat belt incorrectly is dangerous.
Seat belts are designed to go around the
large bones of your body. These are the
strongest parts of your body and can take the
forces of an accident the best. Wearing your
belt in the wrong place could make your
injuries in an accident much worse. You
might suffer internal injuries, or you could
even slide out of part of the belt. Follow these
instructions to wear your seat belt safely and
to keep your passengers safe, too.

This safety belt system has a retractor assem-
bly that is designed to release webbing in a
controlled manner. This feature is designed to
help reduce the belt force acting on the occu-
pant’s chest.
WARNING!
•The belt and retractor assembly must be
replaced if the seat belt assembly Auto-
matic Locking Retractor (ALR) feature or
any other seat belt function is not working
properly when checked according to the
procedures in the Service Manual.
• Failure to replace the belt and retractor
assembly could increase the risk of injury in
accidents.
Automatic Locking Retractors (ALR)
Mode — If Equipped
In this mode, the shoulder belt is automatically
pre-locked. The belt will still retract to remove
any slack in the shoulder belt. The Automatic
Locking Mode is available on all passenger-
seating positions with a combination lap/
shoulder belt. When To Use The Automatic Locking Mode
Use the Automatic Locking Mode anytime a
child safety seat is installed in a seating posi-
tion that has a belt with this feature. Children
12 years old and under should always be
properly restrained in the rear seat.
How To Engage The Automatic Locking
Mode
1. Buckle the combination lap and shoulder
belt.
2. Grasp the shoulder portion and pull down-
ward until the entire belt is extracted.
3. Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts,
you will hear a clicking sound. This indicates
the safety belt is now in the Automatic Locking
Mode.
How To Disengage The Automatic Locking
Mode
Unbuckle the combination lap/shoulder belt
and allow it to retract completely to disengage
the Automatic Locking Mode and activate the
vehicle sensitive (emergency) locking mode.
Seat Belts In Passenger Seating
Positions
The seat belts in the passenger seating posi-
tions are equipped with Automatic Locking
Retractors (ALR) which are used to secure a
child restraint system. For additional informa-
tion refer to “Installing Child Restraints Using
the Vehicle Seat Belt” under the “Child Re-
straints” section. The chart below defines the
type of feature for each seating position.

WARNING!(Continued)
• Improper installation can lead to failure of
an infant or child restraint. It could come
loose in a collision. The child could be
badly injured or killed. Follow the manufac-
turer’s directions exactly when installing an
infant or child restraint.
• A rearward-facing infant restraint should
only be used in a rear seat. A rearward-
facing infant restraint in the front seat may
be struck by a deploying passenger airbag
which may cause severe or fatal injury to
the infant.
Here are some tips for getting the most out of
your child restraint:
• Before buying any restraint system, make
sure that it has a label certifying that it meets
all applicable Safety Standards. Chrysler
Group LLC also recommends that you try a
child restraint in the vehicle seats where you
will use it before you buy it. •
The restraint must be appropriate for your
child’s weight and height. Check the label on
the restraint for weight and height limits.
• Carefully follow the instructions that come
with the restraint. If you install the restraint
improperly, it may not work when you need it.
• Except for the second row center seating
position, all passenger seat belts are
equipped with cinching latch plates. The
second row center position has an automatic
locking retractor. Both types of seat belts are
designed to keep the lap portion tight
around the child restraint so that it is not
necessary to use a locking clip. If the seat
belt has a cinching latch plate, pulling up on
the shoulder portion of the lap/shoulder belt
will tighten the belt (the cinching latch plate
will keep the belt tight; however, any seat belt
system will loosen with time, so check the
belt occasionally and pull it tight if neces-
sary). For the second row center seat belt
with the automatic locking retractor, pull the
belt from the retractor until there is enough
allowance to pass it through the child re-
straint and slide the latch plate into the
buckle. Then, pull the belt until it is fully extended from the retractor. Allow the belt to
return into the retractor, pulling on the excess
webbing to tighten the lap portion around the
child restraint. For additional information, re-
fer to
Automatic Locking Mode .
• In the rear seat, you may have trouble tight-
ening the lap/shoulder belt on the child re-
straint because the buckle or latch plate is
too close to the belt path opening on the
restraint. Disconnect the latch plate from the
buckle and twist the short buckle-end belt
several times to shorten it. Insert the latch
plate into the buckle with the release button
facing out.
• If the belt still cannot be tightened, or if
pulling and pushing on the restraint loosens
the belt, disconnect the latch plate from the
buckle, turn the buckle around, and insert
the latch plate into the buckle again. If you
still cannot make the child restraint secure,
try a different seating position.
• Buckle the child into the restraint exactly as
the manufacturer’s instructions tell you.
• When your child restraint is not in use, se-
cure it in the vehicle with the seat belt or

WARNING!
Do not use the cargo tie downs located on the
load floor. Improper usage of the tether can
lead to a failure of an infant or child restraint.
The child could be badly injured or killed.
Many, but not all restraint systems will be
equipped with separate straps on each side,
with each having a hook or connector for
attachment to the lower anchorage and a
means of adjusting the tension in the strap.
Forward-facing toddler restraints and some
rear-facing infant restraints will also be
equipped with a tether strap, a hook for attach-
ment to the tether strap anchorage and a
means of adjusting the tension of the strap.
First, loosen the child seat adjusters on the
lower straps and on the tether strap so that you
can more easily attach the hooks or connectors
to the vehicle anchorages. Next, attach the
lower hooks or connectors over the top of the
anchorage bars, pushing aside the seat cover
material. Then, locate the tether anchorage
directly behind the seat where you are placing
the child restraint and attach the tether strap to the anchorage, being careful to route the tether
strap to provide the most direct path between
the anchor and the child restraint.
There are
two top tether anchorages located on the
back of the seat, behind the gap panel. They
are not visible until you fold the gap panel
down. Do not use the cargo tie down hooks
located on the floor behind the seat. Finally,
tighten both straps as you push the child
restraint rearward and downward into the seat,
removing slack in the straps according to the
child restraint manufacturer’s instructions.
WARNING!
Improper installation of a child restraint to the
ISOFIX anchorages can lead to failure of an
infant or child restraint. The child could be
badly injured or killed. Follow the manufactur-
er’s directions exactly when installing an in-
fant or child restraint. Installing Child Restraints Using the
Vehicle Seat Belts
The passenger seat belts are equipped with
either cinching latch plates or Automatic Lock-
ing Retractors (ALR), which are designed to
keep the lap portion tight around the child
restraint so that it is not necessary to use a
locking clip. If the seat belt has a cinching latch
plate, pulling up on the shoulder portion of the
lap/shoulder belt will tighten the belt. The
cinching latch plate will keep the belt tight;
however, any seat belt system will loosen with
time, so check the belt occasionally and pull it
tight if necessary.
For seat belts having an Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR), pull the belt from the retractor
until there is enough allowance to pass it
through the child restraint and slide the latch
plate into the buckle. Then, pull the belt until it
is fully extended from the retractor. Allow the
belt to return into the retractor, pulling on the
excess webbing to tighten the lap portion
around the child restraint. Refer to “Automatic
Locking Mode”.
