The driver’s primary
responsibility is the safe
operation of the vehicle. Driving
while distracted can result in loss
of vehicle control, resulting in a
collision 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 collision. 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.Important:
This User Guide is intended to familiarize you with the
important features of your vehicle. Your Owner’s Manual,
Navigation/Uconnect Manuals and Warranty Booklets can be
found on your DVD (if applicable) or by visiting the website
on the back cover of your User Guide. We hope you find
it useful. U.S. residents can purchase replacement kits by
visiting www.techauthority.com and Canadian residents
can purchase replacement kits by calling 1 800 387-1143.
This guide has been prepared to help you
get quickly acquainted with your new Jeep
brand vehicle and to provide a convenient
reference source for common questions.
However, it is not a substitute for your
Owner’s Manual.
For complete operational instructions,
maintenance procedures and important
safety messages, please consult your
Owner’s Manual, Navigation/Uconnect
Manuals and other Warning Labels in
your vehicle.
Not all features shown in this guide
may apply to your vehicle. For additional
information on accessories to help
personalize your vehicle, visit
www.mopar.com (U. S .), www.mopar.ca
(Canada) or your local Jeep brand dealer.Driving and Alcohol:
Drunken driving is one of the most frequent causes of collisions. Your
driving ability can be seriously impaired with blood alcohol levels far below
the legal minimum. If you are drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated
non-drinking driver, call a cab, a friend, or use public transportation.
WARNING!
Driving after drinking can lead to a collision. Your perceptions are less
sharp, your reflexes are slower, and your judgment is impaired when you
have been drinking. Never drink and then drive.

Congratulations on selecting your new FCA
US LLC (“FCA US”) vehicle. Be assured that
it represents precision workmanship, distinc-
tive styling, and high quality.
Your new FCA US vehicle has characteristics
to enhance the driver's control under some
driving conditions. These are to assist the
driver and are never a substitute for attentive
driving. They can never take the driver's
place. Always drive carefully.
Your new vehicle has many features for the
comfort and convenience of you and your
passengers. Some of these should not be
used when driving because they take your
eyes from the road or your attention from
driving. Never text while driving or take your
eyes more than momentarily off the road.This guide illustrates and describes the op-
eration of features and equipment that are
either standard or optional on this vehicle.
This guide may also include a description of
features and equipment that are no longer
available or were not ordered on this vehicle.

described in this guide that are not available
on this vehicle. FCA US reserves the right to
make changes in design and specifications
and/or make additions to or improvements to
its products without imposing any obligation
upon itself to install them on products previ-
ously manufactured.

you quickly become acquainted with the im-
portant features of your vehicle. It contains
most things you will need to operate and
maintain the vehicle, including emergency
information.For complete owner information, refer to your

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Essential Information
Each time direction instructions (left/right or
forwards/backwards) about the vehicle are
given, these must be intended as regarding
an occupant in the driver's seat. Special
cases not complying with this rule will be
properly specified in the text.
The figures in the Owner Handbook are pro-
vided by way of example only: this might
imply that some details of the image do not
correspond to the actual arrangement of your
vehicle.
In addition, the Handbook has been con-
ceived considering vehicles with steering
wheel on the left side; it is therefore possible
that on vehicles with steering wheel on the
right side, the position or construction of
some controls is not exactly mirror-like with
respect to the figure.To identify the chapter with the information
needed you can consult the index at the end
of this Owner Handbook.
Chapters can be rapidly identified with dedi-
cated graphic tabs, at the side of each odd
page. A few pages further there is a key for
getting to know the chapter order and the
relevant symbols in the tabs. There is anyway
a textual indication of the current chapter at
the side of each even page.
Symbols
Some vehicle components have colored la-
bels whose symbols indicate precautions to
be observed when using this component.
ROLLOVER WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehicles. This
vehicle has a higher ground clearance and a
higher center of gravity than many passenger
vehicles. It is capable of performing better in
a wide variety of off-road applications. Driven
in an unsafe manner, all vehicles can go out
of control. Because of the higher center of
gravity, if this vehicle is out of control it may
roll over while some other vehicles may not.
Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneu-
vers, or other unsafe driving actions that can
cause loss of vehicle control. Failure to oper-
ate this vehicle safely may result in a colli-
sion, rollover of the vehicle, and severe or
fatal injury. Drive carefully.
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
2

Failure to use the driver and passenger seat
belts provided is a major cause of severe or
fatal injury. In fact, the U.S. government
notes that the universal use of existing seat
belts could cut the highway death toll by
10,000 or more each year and could reduce
disabling injuries by two million annually. Ina rollover crash, an unbelted person is signifi-
cantly more likely to die than a person wear-
ing a seat belt. Always buckle up.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
While reading this Owner Handbook you will
find a series of WARNINGS to prevent proce-
dures that could damage your vehicle.
There are also CAUTIONS that must be care-
fully followed to prevent incorrect use of the
components of the vehicle, which could
cause accidents or injuries.
Therefore all WARNINGS and CAUTIONS
must always be carefully followed. WARN-
INGS and CAUTIONS are recalled in the text
with the following symbols:NOTE:
These symbols, when necessary, are indi-
cated besides the title or at the end of the line
and are followed by a number. That number
recalls the corresponding warning at the end
of the relevant section.
VEHICLE CHANGES/
ALTERATIONS
IMPORTANT: Any change or alteration of the
vehicle might seriously affect its safety and
road holding, thus causing accidents, in
which the occupants could even be fatally
injured.
