CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause
damage to the heating elements:
•Use care when washing the inside of the
rear window. Do not use abrasive window
cleaners on the interior surface of the
window. Use a soft cloth and a mild wash-
ing solution, wiping parallel to the heating
elements. Labels can be peeled off after
soaking with warm water.
• Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments, or
abrasive window cleaners on the interior
surface of the window.
• Keep all objects a safe distance from the
window.ROOF LUGGAGE RACK — IF
EQUIPPED
The crossbars and siderails are designed to
carry the weight on vehicles equipped with a
luggage rack. The load must not exceed 150 lbs
(68 kg), and should be uniformly distributed
over the luggage rack crossbars.
NOTE:
If not equipped with crossbars, your autho-
rized dealer can order and install MOPAR®
crossbars built specifically for this roof rack
system.
Distribute cargo weight evenly on the roof rack
crossbars. The roof rack does not increase the
total load carrying capacity of the vehicle. Be
sure the total load of cargo inside the vehicle
plus that on the external rack does not exceed
the maximum vehicle load capacity.
To move the crossbars, loosen the attachments,
located at the upper edge of each crossbar,
approximately eight turns using the anti-theft
wrench provided with the MOPAR® crossbars. Then, move the crossbar to the desired posi-
tion, keeping the crossbars parallel to the rack
frame. Once the crossbar is in the desired
position, retighten the with the wrench to lock
the crossbar into position.
NOTE:
•
To help control wind noise when the
crossbars are not in use, place the front
and rear crossbars approximately 24 in
(61 cm) apart. Optimal noise reduction
can then be achieved by adjusting the
front crossbar forward or aft using incre-
ments of 1 in (2.5 cm).
• If the rear crossbar (or any metallic ob-
ject) is placed over the satellite radio
antenna (if equipped), you may experi-
ence interruption of satellite radio recep-
tion. For improved satellite radio recep-
tion, avoid placing the rear crossbar over
the satellite radio antenna.
• The grab handles on the back of the
vehicle (if equipped) are not to be used as
a towing feature.

12. Park/Headlight ON Indicator — If
EquippedThis indicator will illuminate when
the park lights or headlights are
turned on.
13. Seat Belt Reminder Light
When the ignition switch is first turned to
ON/RUN, this light will turn on for four to
eight seconds as a bulb check. During
the bulb check, if the driver or front
passenger’s seat belt is unbuckled, a chime will
sound. After the bulb check or when driving, if the
driver or front passenger seat belt remains un-
buckled, the Seat Belt Indicator Light will flash or
remain on continuously. Refer to “Occupant Re-
straints” in “Things To Know Before Starting Your
Vehicle” for further information.
14. Brake Warning Light
This light monitors various brake
functions, including brake fluid
level and parking brake applica-
tion. If the brake light turns on it
may indicate that the parking brake
is applied, that the brake fluid level is low, or that
there is a problem with the anti-lock brake
system reservoir.
If the light remains on when the parking brake
has been disengaged, and the fluid level is at
the full mark on the master cylinder reservoir, it
indicates a possible brake hydraulic system
malfunction or that a problem with the Brake
Booster has been detected by the Anti-Lock
Brake System (ABS) / Electronic Stability Pro-
gram (ESP) system. In this case, the light will
remain on until the condition has been cor-
rected. If the problem is related to the brake
booster, the ABS pump will run when applying
the brake and a brake pedal pulsation may be
felt during each stop.
The dual brake system provides a reserve
braking capacity in the event of a failure to a portion of the hydraulic system. A leak in either
half of the dual brake system is indicated by the
Brake Warning Light, which will turn on when
the brake fluid level in the master cylinder has
dropped below a specified level.
The light will remain on until the cause is
corrected.
NOTE:
The light may flash momentarily during
sharp cornering maneuvers, which change
fluid level conditions. The vehicle should
have service performed, and the brake fluid
level checked.
If brake failure is indicated, immediate repair is
necessary.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is
dangerous. Part of the brake system may
have failed. It will take longer to stop the
vehicle. You could have a collision. Have the
vehicle checked immediately.
165
Page 170 of 408

Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake
System (ABS), are also equipped with Elec-
tronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD). In the
event of an EBD failure, the Brake Warning
Light will turn on along with the ABS Light.
Immediate repair to the ABS system is required.
Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be
checked by turning the ignition switch from the
OFF position to the ON/RUN position. The light
should illuminate for approximately two sec-
onds. The light should then turn off unless the
parking brake is applied or a brake fault is
detected. If the light does not illuminate, have
the light inspected by an authorized dealer.
The light also will turn on when the parking
brake is applied with the ignition switch in the
ON/RUN position.
NOTE:
This light shows only that the parking brake
is applied. It does not show the degree of
brake application.15. Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light
This light monitors the Anti-Lock
Brake System (ABS). The light will
turn on when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON/RUN position and
may stay on for as long as four sec-
onds.
If the ABS light remains on or turns on while
driving, it indicates that the Anti-Lock portion of
the brake system is not functioning and that
service is required. However, the conventional
brake system will continue to operate normally if
the BRAKE warning light is not on.
If the ABS light is on, the brake system should
be serviced as soon as possible to restore the
benefits of Anti-Lock brakes. If the ABS light
does not turn on when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON/RUN position, have the light
inspected by an authorized dealer. 16. 4 LOW
This light alerts the driver that the
vehicle is in the four-wheel drive
LOW mode. The front and rear drive-
shafts are mechanically locked to-
gether forcing the front and rear
wheels to rotate at the same speed. Low range
provides a greater gear reduction ratio to provide
increased torque at the wheels.
For further information on four-wheel drive op-
eration and proper use, refer to “Four-Wheel
Drive Operation” in “Starting And Operating”.
17. Speedometer
Indicates vehicle speed.
18. Fuel Door Reminder
The fuel pump symbol points to the
side of the vehicle where the fuel
door is located.
