IMPORTANT
This User Guide is intended to familiarize you with the important featur\
es
of your vehicle. The DVD enclosed contains your Owner’s Manual, Navigation/
Uconnect
® Manuals, Warranty Booklets, Tire Warranty and Roadside
Assistance (new vehicles purchased in the U.S.) or Roadside Assistance\

The driver’s primary responsibility is the safe operation of the vehicle. Driving w\
hile
distracted can result in loss of vehicle control, resulting in a collisi\
on and personal
injury. Chrysler Group LLC strongly recommends that the driver use extreme cau\
tion
when using any device or feature that may take their attention off the r\
oad. Use of any
electrical devices such as cell phones, computers, portable radios, vehi\
cle 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 de\
vote 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 telephone\
s or texting
while driving. It is always the driver’s responsibility to comply with all local laws.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.
This guide has been prepared to help you get quickly acquainted with
your new RAM 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 RAM dealer.

WARNING!
• Pedals that cannot move freely can cause loss of vehicle control and increasethe risk of serious personal injury.
• Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver foot well while the
vehicle is moving. Objects can become trapped under the brake pedal and
accelerator pedal causing a loss of vehicle control.
• Failure to properly follow floor mat installation or mounting can cause inter-
ference with the brake pedal and accelerator pedal operation causing loss of
control of the vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the shift lever/gear
selector.
• Never use the ‘PARK’ position as a substitute for the parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement
and possible injury or damage.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

REAR HEATED SEATS
The rear heated seat switches are located
on the rear of the center console.
• Press the switch once to select High-level heating.
• Press the switch a second time to select Low-level heating.
• Press the switch a third time to shut the heating elements off.
When the HIGH-level setting is selected,
the heater will provide a boosted heat
level during the first four minutes of op-
eration. Then, the heat output will drop to
the normal HIGH-level. If the HIGH-level
setting is selected, the system will auto-
matically switch to LOW-level after a
maximum of 60 minutes of continuous
operation. At that time, the number of
illuminated LEDs changes from two to
one, indicating the change. The LOW-
level setting will turn OFF automatically after a maximum of 45 minutes.
WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaus-
tion or other physical conditions must exercise care when using the seat heater.
It may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used for long periods
of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat that insulates against heat, such as a blanket
or cushion. This may cause the seat heater to overheat. Sitting in a seat that
has been overheated could cause serious burns due to the increased surface
temperature of the seat.
