TABLE OF CONTENTS

WELCOME FROM CHRYSLER GROUP LLC
Congratulations on selecting your new Chrysler Group LLC vehicle. Be assured that it
represents precision workmanship, distinctive styling, and high quality - all essentials that
are traditional to our vehicles.
IMPORTANT: This User Guide is intended to familiarize you with the important features of
your vehicle. The DVD enclosed contains your Owner’s Manual, Warranty Booklets, Tire
Warranty, and 24-Hour Towing Assistance (new vehicles purchased in the U.S.) or Roadside
Assistance (new vehicles purchased in Canada) in electronic format. We hope you find it
useful. Retail customers may obtain a printed copy of any of these booklets; call
1-800-890-4038 (U.S.) or 1-800-387-1143 (Canada) or ask your dealer.
For complete owner information, refer to the DVD in the owner’s kit provided at the time of
new vehicle purchase. For your convenience, the information contained on the DVD may
also be printed and saved for future reference.
Not all features shown in this guide may apply to your vehicle.
Chrysler Group LLC is committed to protecting our environment and natural resources. By
converting from paper to electronic delivery for the majority of the user information for your
vehicle, together we greatly reduce the demand for tree-based products and lessen the
stress on our environment.
This is a specialized utility vehicle designed for both on-road and off-road use. It can go
places and perform tasks for which conventional two-wheel drive enclosed vehicles were
not intended. It handles and maneuvers differently from many passenger cars both on-road
and off-road, so take time to become familiar with your vehicle.
Vehicles Sold In Canada
With respect to any Vehicles Sold in Canada, the name Chrysler Group LLC shall be deemed
to be deleted and the name Chrysler Canada Inc. used in substitution therefore.
Driving And Alcohol
Drunken driving is one of the most frequent causes of accidents.
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 an accident. Your perceptions are less sharp, your
reflexes are slower, and your judgment is impaired when you have been drinking.
Never drink and then drive.

SEAT BELT
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
WARNING!
In a collision, 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 buckled up properly.
CHILD RESTRAINTS
• Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small childrenride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for ignoring
it.
WARNING!
In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projectile inside
the vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on your lap could become so
great that you could not hold the child, no matter how strong you are. The child and
others could be badly injured. Any child riding in your vehicle should be in a proper
restraint for the child’s size.
Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System
• Your vehicle's second row passenger seats are equipped with the child restraintanchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren.
Four Door
• The rear outboard seating positions of the four doorhave lower anchors and all three
rear seating positions have top tether anchors.
9
GETTING STARTED

• The tether strap should be attached to the tether anchor on the rear of the seatback usingthe most direct path. For the outboard seating positions, route the tether underneath the
head rest and attach the hook to the tether anchor located on the back of the seat.
• Tighten all three straps as you push the childrestraint rearward and downward into the
seat.
WARNING!
• Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed.
Follow the manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant or child
restraint.
• An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly behind the child
seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
• To install a child restraint, first, pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to
route it through the belt path of the child restraint and slide the latch plate into the
buckle.
• Next, extract all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor and then allow the belt to retract into the retractor. Finally, pull on any excess webbing to tighten the lap portion
around the child restraint. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt
occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.
• Once you have completed securing the child restraint with the seat belt, secure the top tether strap. The tether strap should be attached to the tether anchor on the rear of the
seatback using the most direct path. For the outboard seating positions, route the tether
underneath the head rest and attach the hook to the tether anchor located on the back of
the seat.
WARNING!
Rearward-facing child seats must NEVERbe used in the front seat of a vehicle with
a front passenger airbag. An airbag deployment could cause severe injury or death
to infants in this position.

or even fatally injured. Use the recliner only when the vehicle is parked.

entire seat forward.
• To return the seat to a sitting position, rotate the seatback upright until it locks. Push the

• The recliner and easy entry levers should not be used during the automatic returning of the seat to its fully upright position.

with seats and seat belts. Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a
seat belt properly.

Be certain that the seatback is securely locked into position. If the seatback is not
securely locked into position, the seat will not provide the proper stability for child
seats and/or passengers. An improperly latched seat could cause serious injury.
