ROOF RACK — IF EQUIPPED
The crossbars and siderails are designed to carry the weight
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, an authorized dealer can
order and install Mopar crossbars built specifically for this
roof rack system.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
• Only devices designed for use in this type of outlet should be inserted into any 12 Volt outlet.
• Do not touch with wet hands.
• Close the lid when not in use and while driving the vehicle.
• If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric shock and failure.
CAUTION!
• Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power from the vehicle's battery, even when not in use (i.e.,
cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long
enough, the vehicle's battery will discharge sufficiently
to degrade battery life and/or prevent the engine from
starting.
• Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the battery
even more quickly. Only use these intermittently and
with greater caution.
• After the use of high power draw accessories, or long periods of the vehicle not being started (with accesso -
ries still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a suffi -
cient length of time to allow the generator to recharge
the vehicle's battery. CAUTION!

The warning/indicator lights will illuminate in the instrument
panel together with a dedicated message and/or acoustic signal
when applicable. These indications are indicative and precau-
tionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/
or alternative to the information contained in the Owner’s
Manual, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases.
Always refer to the information in this chapter in the event of a

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Warning Light — If
Equipped
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Indicator Light in
the instrument cluster will come on when the ignition is
placed in the ON/RUN or MAR/ON/RUN position, and
when ESC is activated. It should go out with the engine running. If
the “ESC Indicator Light” comes on continuously with the engine
running, a malfunction has been detected in the ESC system. If this
light remains on after several ignition cycles, and the vehicle has
been driven several miles (kilometers) at speeds greater than
30 mph (48 km/h), see your authorized dealer as soon as possible
to have the problem diagnosed and corrected.
• The “ESC OFF Indicator Light” and the “ESC Indicator Light” come on momentarily each time the ignition is
placed in the ON/RUN or MAR/ON/RUN position.
• Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN or MAR/ON/ RUN, the ESC system will be on, even if it was turned off
previously.
• The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking sounds when it is active. This is normal; the sounds will stop when
ESC becomes inactive.
• This light will come on when the vehicle is in an ESC event. Electronic Stability Control (ESC) OFF Warning Light —
If Equipped
This warning light indicates the Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) is off.
Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN or ACC/ON/RUN,
the ESC system will be on, even if it was turned off previously.
Green Indicator Lights
