Power Outlets
Your vehicle is equipped with 12 Volt (15 Amp) power
outlets that can be used to power cellular phones, small elec-
tronics and other low powered electrical accessories. The
power outlets are labeled with either a “key” or a “battery”
symbol to indicate how the outlet is powered. Power outlets
labeled with a “key” are powered when the ignition is in the
MAR (ACC/ON/RUN) position, while the outlets labeled
with a “battery” are connected directly to the battery and
powered at all times.
NOTE:
• All accessories connected to the “battery” powered outlets should be removed or turned off when the vehicle is not in
use to protect the battery against discharge. Driver And Front Passenger Power Outlets
The power outlets are located in between the driver and
front passenger seats.

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!

Distribute cargo weight evenly on the roof rack crossbars.
The roof rack does not increase the total load carrying
capacity of the vehicle. Be sure the total load of cargo inside
the vehicle plus that on the external rack does not exceed the
maximum vehicle load capacity.
To move the crossbars, loosen the attachments, located at the
upper edge of each crossbar, approximately eight turns
using the anti-theft wrench provided with the Mopar cross-
bars. Then, move the crossbar to the desired position,
keeping the crossbars parallel to the rack frame. Once the
crossbar is in the desired position, re-tighten the with the
wrench to lock the crossbar into position.
NOTE:
• To help control wind noise when the crossbars are not in use, place the front and rear crossbars approximately
24 inches (61 cm) apart. Optimal noise reduction can then
be achieved by adjusting the front crossbar forward or aft
using increments of 1 inch (2.5 cm). • If (or any metallic object) is placed over the satellite radio
antenna (if equipped), you may experience interruption of
satellite radio reception. For improved satellite radio
reception, avoid placing the rear crossbar over the satellite
radio antenna.
WARNING!
Cargo must be securely tied down before driving your
vehicle. Improperly secured loads can fly off the vehicle,
particularly at high speeds, resulting in personal injury
or property damage. Follow the roof rack cautions when
carrying cargo on your roof rack.
CAUTION!
• To prevent damage to the roof of your vehicle, DO NOT carry any loads on the roof rack without the crossbars
deployed. The load should be secured and placed on
top of the crossbars, not directly on the roof. If it is
necessary to place the load on the roof, place a blanket
or other protective layer between the load and the roof
surface.

(Continued)
• To avoid damage to the roof rack and vehicle, do notexceed the maximum roof rack load capacity of 150 lb
(68 kg). Always distribute heavy loads as evenly as
possible and secure the load appropriately.
• Load should always be secured to cross bars first, with tie down loops used as additional securing points if
needed. Tie loops are intended as supplementary tie
down points only. Do not use ratcheting mechanisms
with the tie loops. Check the straps and thumb wheels
frequently to be sure that the load remains securely
attached. CAUTION!
(Continued)• Long loads that extend over the windshield, such as
wood panels or surfboards, or loads with large frontal
area should be secured to both the front and rear of the
vehicle.
• Travel at reduced speeds and turn corners carefully when carrying large or heavy loads on the roof rack.
Wind forces, due to natural causes or nearby truck
traffic, can add sudden upward lift to a load. This is
especially true on large flat loads and may result in
damage to the cargo or your vehicle. CAUTION!

Instrument Cluster Descriptions
1. Speedometer• Indicates vehicle speed.
2. Fuel Gauge
• The pointer shows the level of fuel in the fuel tankwhen the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN position.
• The fuel pump arrow symbol points to the side of the vehicle where the fuel door is located.
3. Temperature Gauge

• The temperature gauge shows engine coolant tempera-ture. Any reading within the normal range indicates that
the engine cooling system is operating satisfactorily.

• The pointer will likely indicate a higher temperature when driving in hot weather or up mountain grades. It
should not be allowed to exceed the upper limits of the
normal operating range.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others
could be badly burned by steam or boiling coolant. You
may want to call an authorized dealer for service if your
vehicle overheats. If you decide to look under the hood
yourself, refer to “Cooling System Pressure Cap” in
“Servicing And Maintenance” and follow the warnings
under the Cooling System Pressure Cap paragraph.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot engine cooling system could damage
your vehicle. If the temperature gauge reads “H,” pull
over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into
the normal range. If the pointer remains on the “H,” turn
the engine off immediately and call an authorized dealer
for service.

4. Tachometer• Indicates the engine speed in revolutions per minute(RPM x 1000).
5. Instrument Cluster Display
• When the appropriate conditions exist, this displayshows the instrument cluster display messages. Refer
to “Instrument Cluster Display” in this chapter for
further information.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY
Your vehicle will be equipped with an instrument cluster
display, which offers useful information to the driver. With
the ignition in the OFF mode, opening/closing of a door will
activate the display for viewing, and display the total miles,
or kilometers, in the odometer. Your instrument cluster
display is designed to display important information about
your vehicle’s systems and features. Using a driver interac -
tive display located on the instrument panel, your instru-
ment cluster display can show you how systems are working and give you warnings when they are not. The instrument
cluster display controls allow you to scroll through the main
menus and submenus. You can access the specific informa
-
tion you want and make selections and adjustments.
Location And Controls
The instrument cluster display features a driver interactive
display that is located in the instrument cluster.
