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
Turn Signal Indicator Lights When the left or right turn signal is activated, the
turn signal indicator will flash independently and
the corresponding exterior turn signal lamps will
flash. Turn signals can be activated when the multifunction
lever is moved down (left) or up (right).

SAFETY 105
Base SystemThis is the TPMS warning indicator located in the
instrument cluster.
The TPMS uses wireless technology with wheel rim
mounted electronic sensors to monitor tire pressure levels.
Sensors, mounted to each wheel as part of the valve stem,
transmit tire pressure readings to the Receiver Module.
NOTE:
It is particularly important for you to check the tire pressure
in all of the tires on your vehicle regularly and to maintain
the proper pressure.
The TPMS consists of the following components:
• Receiver Module
• Four Tire Pressure Monitoring sensors
• Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light will
illuminate in the instrument cluster, an audible chime will be
activated, and the “Check tire pressure” text message will
display when one or more of the four active road tire pres -
sures are low. Should this occur, you should stop as soon as possible, check the inflation pressure of each tire on your
vehicle, and inflate each tire to the vehicle’s recommended
cold placard pressure value. The system will automatically
update and the Tire Pressure Monitoring Light will extin
-
guish once the updated tire pressures have been received.
The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes
above 15 mph (24 km/h) to receive this information.
Check TPMS Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring Warning Light will flash on
and off for 75 seconds and remain on solid when a system
fault is detected, an audible chime will be activated and a
proper text message will be displayed. If the ignition key is
cycled, this sequence will repeat providing the system fault
still exists. The Tire Pressure Monitoring Warning Light will
turn off when the fault condition no longer exists. A system
fault can occur with any of the following scenarios:
1. Jamming due to electronic devices or driving next to facil -
ities emitting the same radio frequencies as the TPM
sensors.
2. Installing some form of aftermarket window tinting that affects radio wave signals.
3. Snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings.

110 SAFETY
Initial Indication

If the driver is unbuckled when the ignition switch is first in the
AVV/START or MAR/RUN position, a chime will signal for a few
seconds. If the driver or outboard front seat passenger (if equipped
with outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert) is unbuckled when
the ignition switch is first in the AVV/START or MAR/RUN posi-
tion the Seat Belt Reminder Light will turn on and remain on until
both outboard front seat belts are buckled. The outboard front
passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when an outboard front
passenger seat is unoccupied.

BeltAlert Warning Sequence

The BeltAlert warning sequence is activated when the vehicle is
moving above a specified vehicle speed range and the driver or
outboard front seat passenger is unbuckled (if equipped with
outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert) (the outboard front
passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when the outboard front
passenger seat is unoccupied). The BeltAlert warning sequence
starts by blinking the Seat Belt Reminder Light and sounding an
intermittent chime. Once the BeltAlert warning sequence has
completed, the Seat Belt Reminder Light will remain on until the
seat belts are buckled. The BeltAlert warning sequence may repeat
based on vehicle speed until the driver and occupied outboard front
seat passenger seat belts are buckled. The driver should instruct all
occupants to buckle their seat belts.
Change of Status
If the driver or outboard front seat passenger (if equipped
with outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert) unbuckles
their seat belt while the vehicle is traveling, the BeltAlert
warning sequence will begin until the seat belts are buckled
again.
The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is not active
when the outboard front passenger seat is unoccupied.
BeltAlert may be triggered when an animal or other items are
placed on the outboard front passenger seat or when the seat
is folded flat (if equipped). It is recommended that pets be
restrained in the rear seat (if equipped) in pet harnesses or
pet carriers that are secured by seat belts, and cargo is prop
-
erly stowed.
BeltAlert can be activated or deactivated by an authorized
dealer. FCA US LLC does not recommend deactivating
BeltAlert.
NOTE:
If BeltAlert has been deactivated and the driver or outboard
front seat passenger (if equipped with outboard front
passenger seat BeltAlert) is unbuckled the Seat Belt
Reminder Light will turn on and remain on until the driver
and outboard front seat passenger seat belts are buckled.

156 SAFETY
Periodic Safety Checks You Should Make Outside
The Vehicle
Tires
Examine tires for excessive tread wear and uneven wear
patterns. Check for stones, nails, glass, or other objects
lodged in the tread or sidewall. Inspect the tread for cuts and
cracks. Inspect sidewalls for cuts, cracks, and bulges. Check
the wheel bolts for tightness. Check the tires (including
spare) for proper cold inflation pressure.
Lights

Have someone observe the operation of brake lights and
exterior lights while you work the controls. Check turn signal
and high beam indicator lights on the instrument panel.

Door Latches
Check for proper closing, latching, and locking.
Fluid Leaks
Check area under the vehicle after overnight parking for
fuel, coolant, oil, or other fluid leaks. Also, if gasoline fumes
are detected or if fuel, or brake fluid leaks are suspected, the
cause should be located and corrected immediately.
• NEVER place any objects under the floor mat (e.g.,
towels, keys, etc.). These objects could change the posi -
tion of the floor mat and may cause interference with
the accelerator, brake, or clutch pedals.
• If the vehicle carpet has been removed and re-installed, always properly attach carpet to the floor and check the
floor mat fasteners are secure to the vehicle carpet.
Fully depress each pedal to check for interference with
the accelerator, brake, or clutch pedals then re-install
the floor mats.
• It is recommended to only use mild soap and water to clean your floor mats. After cleaning, always check
your floor mat has been properly installed and is
secured to your vehicle using the floor mat fasteners by
lightly pulling mat.

STARTING AND OPERATING 177
While audible signals are emitted, the audio system is
muted.
The audible signal is turned off immediately if the distance
increases. The tone cycle remains constant if the distance
measured by the inner sensors is constant. If this condition occurs
for the external sensors, the signal is turned off after three seconds
(stopping warnings during maneuvers parallel to walls).

ParkSense Rear Park Assist Failure Indications
A malfunction of the ParkSense sensors or system is indi
-
cated, during REVERSE gear engagement, by the instrument
panel warning icon.
The warning icon is illuminated and a message is
displayed on the instrument cluster display (if
equipped). Refer to “Warning Lights And
Messages” in “Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for
further information.

The sensors and wiring are tested continuously when the
ignition is in the MAR (ACC/ON/RUN) position. Failures are
indicated immediately if they occur when the system is on.

Even if the system is able to identify that a specific sensor is
in failure condition, the instrument cluster display shall
indicate that the ParkSense system is unavailable, without
reference to the sensor in failure condition. If even a single
sensor fails, the entire system must be disabled. The system
is turned off automatically.

Towing Requirements — Trailer Lights And Wiring
Whenever you pull a trailer, regardless of the trailer size,
stoplights and turn signals on the trailer are required for
motoring safety.
The Trailer Tow Package may include a four- and seven-pin
wiring harness. Use a factory approved trailer harness and
connector.
NOTE:
Do not cut or splice wiring into the vehicle’s wiring harness.
The electrical connections are all complete to the vehicle but
you must mate the harness to a trailer connector. Refer to the
following illustrations.NOTE:
• Disconnect trailer wiring connector from the vehicle
before launching a boat (or any other device plugged into
vehicle’s electrical connect) into water.
• Be sure to reconnect once clear from water area.
