MIRRORS
Inside Day/Night MirrorA two-point pivot system allows for horizontal
and vertical mirror adjustment. Adjust the mirror
to center on the view through the rear window.
Headlight glare can be reduced by moving the
small control under the mirror to the night
position (toward the rear of vehicle). The mirror
should be adjusted while set in the day position
(toward the windshield).
Automatic Dimming Mirror — If
Equipped
This mirror automatically adjusts for headlight
glare from vehicles behind you. You can turn the
feature on or off by pushing the button at the
base of the mirror. The On/Off symbol on the
button will illuminate when the auto-dimming
feature is enabled.
NOTE:
This feature is disabled when the vehicle is
moving in reverse.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the mirror during clean-
ing, never spray any cleaning solution di-
rectly onto the mirror. Apply the solution onto
a clean cloth and wipe the mirror clean.
Outside Mirror — Driver SideAdjust the flat outside mirror so you can just see
the side of your vehicle in the part of the mirror
closest to the vehicle with your head close to the
door glass.
Outside Mirror — Passenger SideAdjust the convex outside mirror so you can just
see the side of your vehicle in the part of the
mirror closest to the vehicle with your head
close to the center of the vehicle.
WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in the pas-
senger side convex mirror will look smaller
and farther away than they really are. Rely-

ing too much on your passenger side convex
mirror could cause you to collide with an-
other vehicle or other object. Use your inside
mirror when judging the size or distance of a
vehicle seen in the passenger side convex
mirror. Some vehicles will not have a convex
passenger side mirror.
Folding Outside MirrorsThe outside mirrors are hinged and may be
moved, manually, either forward or rearward to
resist damage. The hinges have three detent
positions; full forward, full rearward and normal.

Voice Command
•For best performance, adjust the rearview
mirror to provide at least ½ inch (1 cm) gap
between the overhead console (if equipped)
and the mirror.
•Always wait for the beep before speaking.
•Speak normally, without pausing, just as you
would speak to a person sitting a few feet/
meters away from you.
•Make sure that no one other than you is
speaking during a Voice Command period.
•Performance is maximized under:
•low-to-medium blower setting
•low-to-medium vehicle speed
•low road noise
•smooth road surface
•fully closed windows
•dry weather condition
•The system may not always work for some
accents.•When navigating through an automated sys-
tem such as voice mail, or when sending a
page, at the end of speaking the digit string,
make sure to say “Send.”
•Storing names in the phonebook when the
vehicle is not in motion is recommended.
•It is not recommended to store similar sound-
ing names in the Uconnect Phonebook.
•Phonebook (Downloaded and Uconnect
Phone Local) name recognition rate is opti-
mized when the entries are not similar.
•Numbers must be spoken in single digits.
“800” must be spoken “eight-zero-zero” not
“eight hundred.”
•You can say “O” (letter “O”) for “0” (zero).
•Even though international dialing for most
number combinations is supported, some
shortcut dialing number combinations may
not be supported.
•In a convertible vehicle, system performance
may be compromised with the convertible top
down.Far End Audio Performance
Audio quality is maximized under:
•Low-to-medium blower setting
•Low-to-medium vehicle speed
•Low road noise
•Smooth road surface
•Fully closed windows
•Dry weather conditions
•Operation from the driver’s seat
•Performance, such as audio clarity, echo,
and loudness to a large degree rely on the
phone and network, and not the Uconnect
Phone
•Echo at the phone far end can sometimes be
reduced by lowering the in-vehicle audio
volume

Rotate the center portion of the
lever past the first detent to acti-
vate the rear washer. The washer
pump and the wiper will continue to
operate as long as the switch is
held (for a maximum of 10 seconds). Upon
release, the wiper will continue to cycle two
times before returning to the set position.
If the rear wiper is operating when the ignition is
turned OFF, the wiper will automatically return
to the “park” position if power accessory delay is
active. Power accessory delay can be cancelled
by opening the door, if this happens the rear
wiper will stop at its current position and will not
go to “park”.
Rear Window Defroster
The rear window defroster button is
located on the climate controls mode
control knob. Push the button to turn
on the rear window defroster and the
heated outside mirrors (if equipped). An indica-
tor in the button will illuminate when the rear
window defroster is on. The rear window de-
froster automatically turns off after approxi-mately 10 minutes. For an additional five min-
utes of operation, push the button a second
time.
NOTE:
To prevent excessive battery drain, use the
rear window defroster only when the engine
is operating.
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 cargo 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 luggage
rack crossbars. The luggage 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.
The crossbars must also be secured in one of
the seven detent positions marked with an
arrow on the siderails to prevent movement. To
move the crossbars, loosen the thumb screws
located at the upper edge of each crossbar
approximately eight turns, then move the cross-

Summer Operation
The engine cooling system must be protected
with a high-quality antifreeze coolant to provide
proper corrosion protection and to protect
against engine overheating. A solution of 50%
OAT (Organic Additive Technology) coolant that
meets the requirements of FCA Material Stan-
dard MS.90032 and 50% water is recom-
mended. Refer to “Maintenance Procedures” in
“Maintaining Your Vehicle” for proper coolant
selection.
Winter Operation
Use of the air Recirculation Mode during winter
months is not recommended because it may
cause window fogging.
Vacation Storage
Anytime you store your vehicle, or keep it out of
service (i.e., vacation) for two weeks or more,
run the air conditioning system at idle for about
five minutes in the fresh air and high blower
settings. This will ensure adequate system lu-
brication to minimize the possibility of compres-
sor damage when the system is started again.Window Fogging
Interior fogging on the windshield can be quickly
removed by turning the mode selector to De-
frost. The Defrost/Floor mode can be used to
maintain a clear windshield and provide suffi-
cient heating. If side window fogging becomes a
problem, increase blower speed. Vehicle win-
dows tend to fog on the inside in mild but rainy
or humid weather.
NOTE:
Recirculate without A/C should not be used
for long periods as fogging may occur.
Side Window Demisters
A side window demister outlet is located at each
end of the instrument panel. These non-
adjustable outlets direct air toward the side
windows when the system is in the FLOOR,
MIX, or DEFROST mode. The air is directed at
the area of the windows through which you view
the outside mirrors.Outside Air Intake
Make sure the air intake, located directly in front
of the windshield, is free of obstructions such as
leaves. Leaves collected in the air intake may
reduce airflow, and if they enter the plenum,
they could plug the water drains. In winter
months, make sure the air intake is clear of ice,
slush, and snow.
A/C Air Filter — If Equipped
The A/C Filter prevents most dust and pollen
from entering the cabin. The filter acts on air
coming from outside the vehicle and recircu-
lated air within the passenger compartment.
Refer to “Maintenance Procedures” in “Main-
taining Your Vehicle” for A/C Air Filter service
information or see your authorized dealer for
service. Refer to “Maintenance Schedules” in
“Maintaining Your Vehicle” for filter service inter-
vals.

When cleaning the rear view mirror, spray
cleaner on the towel or cloth that you are using.
Do not spray cleaner directly on the mirror.
Instrument Panel Cover
The instrument panel cover has a low glare
surface which minimizes reflections on the
windshield. Do not use protectants or other
products which may cause undesirable reflec-
tions. Use soap and warm water to restore the
low glare surface.
Instrument Panel Bezels
CAUTION!
When installing hanging air fresheners in
your vehicle, read the installation instructions
carefully. Some air fresheners will damage
the finish of painted or decorated parts if
allowed to directly contact any surface.
Cleaning Plastic Instrument Cluster Lenses
The lenses in front of the instruments in this
vehicle are molded in clear plastic. When clean-
ing the lenses, care must be taken to avoid
scratching the plastic.1. Clean with a wet soft cloth. A mild soap
solution may be used, but do not use high
alcohol content or abrasive cleaners. If soap
is used, wipe clean with a clean damp cloth.
2. Dry with a soft cloth.
Seat Belt Maintenance
Do not bleach, dye, or clean the belts with
chemical solvents or abrasive cleaners. This will
weaken the fabric. Sun damage can also
weaken the fabric.
If the belts need cleaning, use MOPAR Total
