Ethanol
The manufacturer recommends that your ve-
hicle be operated on fuel containing no more
than 10% Ethanol. Purchasing your fuel from a
reputable supplier may reduce the risk of ex-
ceeding this 10% limit and/or of receiving fuel
with abnormal properties. It should also be
noted that an increase in fuel consumption
should be expected when using Ethanol-
blended fuels, due to the lower energy content
of Ethanol.
Problems that result from using Methanol/
gasoline or E85 Ethanol blends are not the
responsibility of the manufacturer. While MTBE
is an oxygenate made from Methanol, it does
not have the negative effects of Methanol.
CAUTION!
Use of fuel with Ethanol content higher than
10% may result in engine malfunction, starting
and operating difficulties and materials degra-
dation. These adverse effects could result in
permanent damage to your vehicle.Clean Air Gasoline
Many gasolines are now being blended that
contribute to cleaner air, especially in those
areas where air pollution levels are high. These
new blends provide a cleaner burning fuel and
some are referred to as “reformulated gaso-
line.”
The manufacturer supports these efforts toward
cleaner air. You can help by using these blends
as they become available.
MMT in Gasoline
MMT is a manganese containing metallic addi-
tive that is blended into some gasoline to
increase octane. Gasoline blended with MMT
provides no performance advantage beyond
gasoline of the same octane number without
MMT. Gasoline blended with MMT reduces
spark plug life and reduces emission system
performance in some vehicles. The manufac-
turer recommends that gasoline without MMT
be used in your vehicle. The MMT content of
gasoline may not be indicated on the gasoline
pump; therefore, you should ask your gasoline
retailer whether or not his/her gasoline contains
MMT. Materials Added to Fuel
Besides using unleaded gasoline with the
proper octane rating, gasolines that contain
detergents, corrosion and stability additives
are recommended. Using gasolines that have
these additives will help improve fuel economy,
reduce emissions, and maintain vehicle perfor-
mance.
Indiscriminate use of fuel system cleaning
agents should be avoided. Many of these ma-
terials intended for gum and varnish removal
may contain active solvents or similar ingredi-
ents. These can harm fuel system gasket and
diaphragm materials.
WARNING!
Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases is
deadly. Follow the precautions below to pre-
vent carbon monoxide poisoning:

CAUTION!(Continued)
• Do not use water alone or alcohol based
engine coolant (antifreeze) products. Do
not use additional rust inhibitors or antirust
products, as they may not be compatible
with the engine coolant (antifreeze) and
may plug the radiator.
• This vehicle has not been designed for use
with Propylene Glycol-based engine cool-
ant (antifreeze). Use of Propylene Glycol-
based engine coolant (antifreeze) is not
recommended.
Adding Coolant
Your vehicle has been built with an improved
engine coolant (antifreeze) that allows extended
maintenance intervals. This engine coolant (an-
tifreeze) can be used up to 5 Years or
105,000 miles (168 000 km) before replace-
ment. To prevent reducing this extended main-
tenance period, it is important that you use the
same engine coolant (antifreeze) throughout the
life of your vehicle. Please review these recom-
mendations for using Hybrid Organic Additive
Technology (HOAT) engine coolant (antifreeze).
When adding engine coolant (antifreeze):
•
The manufacturer recommends using MO-
PA R Antifreeze/ Coolant 5–Year/100,000 Mile
Formula HOAT (Hybrid Organic Additive
Technology) or equivalent.
• Mix a minimum solution of 50% HOAT engine
coolant (antifreeze) and distilled water. Use
higher concentrations (not to exceed 70%) if
temperatures below -34°F (-37°C) are antici-
pated.
• Use only high purity water such as distilled
or deionized water when mixing the water/
engine coolant (antifreeze) solution. The use
of lower quality water will reduce the amount
of corrosion protection in the engine cooling
system.
Please note that it is the owner’s responsibility
to maintain the proper level of protection
against freezing according to the temperatures
occurring in the area where the vehicle is
operated.
NOTE:
Mixing engine coolant (antifreeze) types will
decrease the life of the engine coolant (an- tifreeze) and will require more frequent en-
gine coolant (antifreeze) changes.
Cooling System Pressure Cap
The cap must be fully tightened to prevent loss
of engine coolant (antifreeze), and to ensure
that engine coolant (antifreeze) will return to the
radiator from the coolant recovery tank.
The cap should be inspected and cleaned if
there is any accumulation of foreign material on
the sealing surfaces.
WARNING!
•
The warning words DO NOT OPEN HOT
on the cooling system pressure cap are a
safety precaution. Never add engine cool-
ant (antifreeze) when the engine is over-
heated. Do not loosen or remove the cap to
cool an overheated engine. Heat causes
pressure to build up in the cooling system.
To prevent scalding or injury, do not remove
the pressure cap while the system is hot or
under pressure.

of such repairs is considered the responsi-
bility of the owner.
• If you carry special cargo such as chemi-
cals, fertilizers, de-icer salt, etc., assure that
such materials are well packaged and
sealed.
• If a lot of driving is done on gravel roads,
consider mud or stone shields behind each
wheel.
• Use MOPAR Touch Up Paint or equivalent
on scratches or chips as soon as possible.
Your authorized dealer has touch up paint to
match the color of your vehicle.
Wheel and Wheel Trim Care
All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum
and chrome-plated wheels should be cleaned
regularly with a mild soap and water to prevent
corrosion. To remove heavy soil, use MOPAR
Wheel Cleaner or select a nonabrasive, non-
acidic cleaner. Do not use scouring pads, steel
wool, a bristle brush or metal polishes. Only
MOPAR cleaners or equivalent are recom-
mended. Do not use oven cleaner. Avoid auto- matic car washes that use acidic solutions or
harsh brushes that may damage the wheels’
protective finish.
Stain Repel Fabric Cleaning Procedure –
If Equipped
Stain Repel seats may be cleaned in the follow-
ing manner:
•
Remove as much of the stain as possible by
blotting with a clean, dry towel.
• Blot any remaining stain with a clean, damp
towel.
• For tough stains, apply MOPAR Total Clean
or a mild soap solution to a clean, damp
cloth and remove the stain. Use a fresh,
damp towel to remove soap residue.
• For grease stains, apply MOPAR Multi-
Purpose Cleaner or equivalent to a clean,
damp cloth and remove the stain. Use a
fresh, damp towel to remove soap residue.
• Do not use any harsh solvents or any other
form of protectants on Stain Repel products. Interior Care
Use MOPAR
Total Clean or equivalent to clean
fabric upholstery and carpeting.
Interior Trim should be cleaned starting with a
damp cloth, a damp cloth with MOPAR Total
Clean or equivalent, then MOPAR Spot & Stain
Remover or equivalent, if absolutely necessary.
Do not use harsh cleaners or Armor All . Use
MOPAR Total Clean or equivalent to clean
vinyl upholstery.
Leather Seat Care And Cleaning
MOPAR Total Clean or equivalent is specifi-
cally recommended for leather upholstery.
Your leather upholstery can be best preserved
by regular cleaning with a damp soft cloth.
Small particles of dirt can act as an abrasive
and damage the leather upholstery and should
be removed promptly with a damp cloth. Stub-
born soils can be removed easily with a soft
cloth and MOPAR Total Clean or equivalent.
Care should be taken to avoid soaking your
leather upholstery with any liquid. Please do
not use polishes, oils, cleaning fluids, solvents,
detergents, or ammonia-based cleaners to

clean your leather upholstery. Application of a
leather conditioner is not required to maintain
the original condition.
WARNING!
Do not use volatile solvents for cleaning pur-
poses. Many are potentially flammable, and if
used in closed areas, they may cause respi-
ratory harm.
Cleaning Headlights
Your vehicle has plastic headlights that are
lighter and less susceptible to stone breakage
than glass headlights.
Plastic is not as scratch-resistant as glass and
therefore different lens cleaning procedures
must be followed.
To minimize the possibility of scratching the
lenses and reducing light output, avoid wiping
with a dry cloth. To remove road dirt, wash with
a mild soap solution followed by rinsing. Do not use abrasive cleaning components,
solvents, steel wool or other aggressive mate-
rial to clean the lenses.
Glass Surfaces
All glass surfaces should be cleaned on a
regular basis with MOPAR
Glass Cleaner or
any commercial household-type glass cleaner.
Never use an abrasive type cleaner. Use cau-
tion when cleaning inside rear windows
equipped with electric defrosters. Do not use
scrapers or other sharp instruments which may
scratch the elements.
When cleaning the rearview mirror, spray
cleaner on the towel or rag that you are using.
Do not spray cleaner directly on the mirror.
Cleaning Plastic Instrument Cluster Lenses
The lenses in front of the instruments in this
vehicle are molded in clear plastic. When
cleaning the lenses, care must be taken to
avoid scratching the plastic. 1. Clean with a wet soft rag. A mild soap
solution may be used, but do not use high
alcohol content or abrasive cleaners. If soap is
used, wipe clean with a clean damp rag.
2. Dry with a soft tissue.
Seat Belt Maintenance
Do not bleach, dye or clean the belts with
chemical solvents or abrasive cleaners. This
will weaken the fabric. Sun damage will also
weaken the fabric.
If the belts need cleaning, use MOPAR
Total
Clean, a mild soap solution, or lukewarm water.
Do not remove the belts from the vehicle to
wash them.
Replace the belts if they appear frayed or worn
or if the buckles do not work properly.
Dry with a soft tissue.
