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

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.
Your new Chrysler Group LLC 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 operation 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. Please disregard any features and equipment described in this guide that
are not available on this vehicle. Chrysler Group LLC 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
previously manufactured.
This User Guide has been prepared to help you quickly become acquainted with the
important features of your vehicle. It contains most things you will need to operate
and maintain the vehicle, including emergency information.
The DVD includes a computer application containing detailed owner's information
which can be viewed on a personal computer or MAC computer. The multimedia DVD
also includes videos which can be played on any standard DVD player (including the
Uconnect
®Touchscreen Radios). Additional DVD operational information is located
on the back of the DVD sleeve.
For complete owner information, refer to your Owner's Manual on 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.
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.
