breakage than glass lights. Plastic is not as
scratch resistant as glass and therefore dif-
ferent lens cleaning procedures must be fol-
lowed.
To minimize the possibility of scratching the
lenses and reducing light output, avoid wip-
ing with a dry cloth. To remove road dirt, wash
with a mild soap solution followed by rinsing.
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with illuminated
approach lights under the outside mirrors,
they can be turned off through the instrument
cluster or the Uconnect radio. For further
information, refer to the Owner’s Manual at
www.mopar.com/en-us/care/owners-manual.html
(U.S. Residents) or www.owners.mopar.ca
(Canadian Residents) for further information.
CAUTION!
Do not use abrasive cleaning components,
solvents, steel wool or other abrasive ma-
terials to clean the lenses.
Headlights
To turn on the headlights, rotate the head-
light switch clockwise to the headlight posi-
tion. When the headlight switch is on, the
parking lights, taillights, license plate light

Automatic High Beam Headlamp
Control — If Equipped
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control
system provides increased forward lighting at
night by automating high beam control
through the use of a digital camera mounted
on the inside rearview mirror. This camera
detects vehicle specific light and automati-
cally switches from high beams to low beams
until the approaching vehicle is out of view.

(U.S. Residents) or www.owners.mopar.ca
(Canadian Residents) for further informa-
tion.
• Broken, muddy, or obstructed headlights and taillights of vehicles in the field of view
will cause headlights to remain on longer
(closer to the vehicle). Also, dirt, film, and
other obstructions on the windshield or
camera lens will cause the system to func-
tion improperly.
If the windshield or Automatic High Beam
Headlamp Control mirror is replaced, the
mirror must be re-aimed to ensure proper
performance. See a local authorized dealer.To Activate
1. The Automatic High Beams are enabled through the Uconnect system. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” in

Panel Mode
Air comes from the outlets in the instrument panel. Each of these outlets can be individually adjusted to direct the flow
of air. The air vanes of the center outlets and outboard outlets can be moved up and down or side to side to regulate
airflow direction. There is a shut off wheel located below the air vanes to shut off or adjust the amount of airflow from
these outlets.
Bi-Level Mode
Bi-Level Mode
Air comes from the instrument panel outlets and floor outlets. A slight amount of air is directed through the defrost and
side window demister outlets.

CAUTION!
Do not attempt to raise the vehicle by
jacking on locations other than those indi-
cated in the Jacking Instructions for this
vehicle.
1. If equipped, remove the spare wheel, jack, and tools from storage.
2. Using the lug wrench, loosen, but do not remove, the lug nuts by turning them
counterclockwise one turn while the
wheel is still on the ground.
3. When changing the front wheel, assemble the jack driver to the jack and connect the
jack driver to the extension tube. Place
the jack under the axle as close to the tire
as possible with the jack driver extending
to the front. Connect the extension tubes
and lug wrench. When changing a rear wheel, assemble
the jack driver to the jack and connect
the jack driver to the extension tubes.
Securely place the jack under the sway
bar bracket (unless both tires are flat on
one side, then place jack under shock
bracket) facing forward in vehicle. Con-
nect the extension tubes and lug wrench.Before raising the wheel off the ground,
make sure that the jack will not damage
surrounding truck parts and adjust the jack
position as required.
NOTE:
If the jack will not lower by turning the
dial (thumbwheel) by hand, it may be
necessary to use the jack driver in order to
lower the jack.

4. By rotating the lug wrench clockwise,raise the vehicle until the wheel just
clears the surface.
WARNING!
Raising the vehicle higher than necessary
can make the vehicle less stable. It could
slip off the jack and hurt someone near it.
Raise the vehicle only enough to remove
the tire.
5. Remove the lug nuts and pull the wheel off. Install the spare wheel and lug nuts
with the cone shaped end of the nuts
toward the wheel on single rear wheel
(SRW) models. On dual rear wheel models
(DRW) the lug nuts are a two-piece assem-
bly with a flat face. Lightly tighten the
nuts. To avoid risk of forcing the vehicle
off the jack, do not fully tighten the nuts
until the vehicle has been lowered.
6. Using the lug wrench, finish tightening the nuts using a crisscross pattern. For
the proper lug nut torque specifications
refer to “Wheel And Tire Torque Specifi-
cations” in “Technical Specifications.” If
in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a torque wrench by an
authorized dealer or at a service station.
WARNING!
A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a
collision or hard stop, could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the
jack parts and the spare tire in the places
provided.
7. Install wheel center cap (if equipped) and remove wheel blocks. Do not install
chrome or aluminum wheel center caps
on the spare wheel. This may result in cap
damage.
8. Lower the jack to its fully closed position. If the jack will not lower by turning the
dial (thumbwheel) by hand, it may be
necessary to use the jack driver in order to
lower the jack. Stow the replaced tire,
jack, and tools as previously described.
9. Adjust the tire pressure when possible.
To Stow The Flat Or Spare —
If Equipped
Refer to Upfitters Body Builders Guide for
information on stowing your spare tire (if
equipped).
Hub Caps/Wheel Covers —
If Equipped
The hub caps must be removed before raising
the vehicle off the ground.
CAUTION!
Use extreme caution when removing the
front and rear center caps. Damage can
occur to the center cap and/or the wheel if
screwdriver type tools are used. A pulling
motion, not a pry off motion, is recom-
mended to remove the caps.
For single rear wheel (SRW) models, use the
flat blade on the end of the lug wrench to pull
the hub cap off. Insert the blade end into the
pull off notch and carefully pull the hub cap
off with a back and forth motion.

position, there may be a problem with your
water separator wiring or sensor. See your
authorized dealer for service.
Upon proper draining of the water from both
fuel filters, the “Water In Fuel Indicator
Light” will remain illuminated for approxi-
mately 10 seconds. If the water was drained
while the engine was running, the “Water In
Fuel Indicator Light” may remain on for ap-
proximately three minutes.
NOTE:
Care should be taken in disposing of used
fluids from your vehicle. Used fluids, indis-
criminately discarded, can present a problem
to the environment. Contact an authorized
dealer, service station, or government agency
for advice on recycling programs and for
where used fluids and filters can be properly
disposed of in your area.
Drain the fuel/water separator filters when
the “Water In Fuel Indicator Light” is ON.
Within 10 minutes of vehicle shutdown, turn
the engine mounted filter drain valve (located
on the side of the filter assembly) counter-
clockwise 1/4 turn, and turn the under body
mounted filter drain valve (located on thebottom of the filter assembly) counterclock
wise 1 full turn. Then turn the ignition switch
to the ON position, and allow any accumu-
lated water to drain. Leave the drain valve
open until all water and contaminants have
been removed. When clean fuel is visible,
close the drain valves by turning them fully
clockwise, and turn the ignition switch to
OFF.
If more than a couple ounces/milliliters of
fuel have been drained, follow the directions
for “Priming If The Engine Has Run Out Of
Fuel.”
Engine Mounted Fuel Filter
Replacement
NOTE:
• Using a fuel filter that does not meet the
manufacturer's filtration and water separat-
ing requirements can severely impact fuel
system life and reliability.
• The engine mounted filter housing is equipped with a No-Filter-No-Run (NFNR)
feature. Engine will not run if:
1. No filter is installed. 2. Inferior/Non-approved filter is used.
Use of OEM filter is required to ensure
vehicle will run.
CAUTION!
• Diesel fuel will damage blacktop pavingsurfaces. Drain the filter into an appro-
priate container.
• Do not prefill the fuel filter when install-
ing a new fuel filter. There is a possibility
debris could be introduced into the fuel
filter during this action. It is best to
install the filter dry and allow the in-tank
lift pump to prime the fuel system.
1. Ensure engine is turned off.
2. Place drain pan under the fuel filter drain hose.
3. Open the water drain valve 1/4 turn coun- terclockwise and completely drain fuel
and water into the approved container.
4. Close the water drain valve.
5. Remove lid using a socket or strap wrench. Rotate counterclockwise for re-
moval. Remove used o-ring and discard it.
