If the liftgate flipper glass is open, the rear
window wiper/washer functionality is inter-
rupted and the wiper stops at that “park” posi-
tion. When the liftgate flipper glass is closed,
the rear wiper will resume wiper/washer func-
tionality after five seconds.
Rear Window Defroster
The rear window defroster button is
located on the climate control panel.
Press this button to turn on the rear
window defroster and the heated outside mir-
rors (if equipped). An indicator in the button will
illuminate when the rear window defroster is on.
The rear window defroster automatically turns
off after approximately 10 minutes. For an ad-
ditional five minutes of operation, press the
button a second time.
NOTE:
To prevent excessive battery drain, use the
rear window defroster only when the engine
is operating.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause
damage to the heating elements:
• Use care when washing the inside of the
rear window. Do not use abrasive window
cleaners on the interior surface of the win-
dow. Use a soft cloth and a mild washing
solution, wiping parallel to the heating ele-
ments. Labels can be peeled off after soak-
ing with warm water.
• Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments, or
abrasive window cleaners on the interior
surface of the window.
• Keep all objects a safe distance from the
window.
ROOF LUGGAGE 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 dis-
tributed over the luggage rack crossbars. NOTE:
If not equipped with crossbars, your autho-
rized dealer can order and install MOPAR
crossbars built specifically for this roof rack
system.
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.
The optional crossbars must be installed using
the correct orientation (the longer crossbar
toward the front).
To move the crossbars, loosen the attach-
ments, located at the upper edge of each
crossbar, approximately eight turns using the
anti-theft wrench provided with the MOPAR
crossbars. Then, move the crossbar to the
desired position, keeping the crossbars paral-
lel to the rack frame. Once the crossbar is in the
desired position, retighten the with the wrench
to lock the crossbar into position.
