Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder
System (BeltAlert)
BeltAlertis a feature intended to remind the
driver and front passenger (if equipped with
front passenger BeltAlert) to fasten their seat
belts. The feature is active whenever the igni-
tion is on. If the driver or front seat passenger is
unbelted, the Seat Belt Reminder Light will turn
on and remain on until both front seat belts are
fastened.
The BeltAlert warning sequence begins after
the vehicle speed is over 5 mph (8 km/h), by
blinking the Seat Belt Reminder Light and
sounding an intermittent chime. Once the se-
quence starts, it will continue for the entire
duration or until the respective seatbelts are
fastened. After the sequence completes, the
Seat Belt Reminder Light remains illuminated
until the respective seat belts are fastened. The
driver should instruct all other occupants to
fasten their seat belts. If a front seat belt is
unbuckled while traveling at speeds greater
than 5 mph (8 km/h), BeltAlert will provide
both audio and visual notification. The front passenger seat BeltAlert
is not ac-
tive when the front passenger seat is unoccu-
pied. BeltAlert may be triggered when an
animal or heavy object is on the front passen-
ger seat or when the seat is folded flat (if
equipped). It is recommended that pets be
restrained in the rear seat in pet harnesses or
pet carriers that are secured by seat belts, and
cargo is properly stowed.
BeltAlert can be enabled or disabled by your
authorized dealer. Chrysler Group LLC does
not recommend deactivating BeltAlert .
NOTE:
Although BeltAlert has been deactivated,
the Seat Belt Reminder Light will continue to
illuminate while the driver’s or front passen-
ger (if equipped with belt alert) seat belt
remains unfastened.
Seat Belt Lock OutThe center rear seat belt system has a lock out
feature that will not allow you to extract the
center webbing unless the rear seat upper
latch is engaged.
Seat Belts And Pregnant WomenWe recommend that pregnant women use the
seat belts throughout their pregnancy. Keeping
the mother safe is the best way to keep the
baby safe.
Pregnant women should wear the lap part of
the belt across the thighs and as snug across
the hips as possible. Keep the belt low so that
it does not come across the abdomen. That
way the strong bones of the hips will take the
force if there is an accident.
Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) — Air Bags
This vehicle has Advanced Front Air Bags for
both the driver and front passenger as a
supplement to the seat belt restraint systems.
The driver’s Advanced Front Air Bag is
mounted in the center of the steering wheel.
The passenger’s Advanced Front Air Bag is
mounted in the instrument panel, above the

When RCP is on and the vehicle is in REVERSE,
the driver is alerted using both the visual and
audible alarms, including reducing the radio
volume.
WARNING!
RCP is not a Back Up Aid system. It is
intended to be used to help a driver detect an
oncoming vehicle in a parking lot situation.
Drivers must be careful when backing up,
even when using RCP. Always check carefully
behind your vehicle, look behind you, and be
sure to check for pedestrians, animals, other
vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots before
backing up. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death.
Modes Of OperationThree selectable modes of operation are avail-
able in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC). Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC)/Personal Settings (Customer-
Programmable Features)” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” for further information.
Blind Spot Alert
When operating in Blind Spot Alert mode, the
BSM system will provide a visual alert in the
appropriate side view mirror based on a de-
tected object. However, when the system is
operating in RCP, the system will respond with
both visual and audible alerts when a detected
object is present. Whenever an audible alert is
requested, the radio volume is reduced.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert Lights/
Chime, the BSM system will provide a visual
alert in the appropriate side view mirror based
on a detected object. If the turn signal is then
activated, and it corresponds to an alert pres-
ent on that side of the vehicle, an audible chime
will also be sounded. Whenever a turn signal
and detected object are present on the same
side at the same time, both the visual and audio
alerts will be issued. In addition to the audible
alert the radio (if on) volume will be reduced.
NOTE:
•Whenever an audible alert is requested by
the BSM system, the radio volume is re-
duced. •
If the hazard flashers are on, the system
will request the appropriate visual alert
only.
When the system is in RCP, the system shall
respond with both visual and audible alerts
when a detected object is present. When-
ever an audible alert is requested, the radio
volume is reduced. Turn/hazard signal status
is ignored; the RCP state always requests
the chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off there will be
no visual or audible alerts from either the BSM
or RCP systems.
NOTE:
The BSM system will store the current oper-
ating mode when the vehicle is shut off.
Each time the vehicle is started the previ-
ously stored mode will be recalled and used.
Astronomy Zone — System Temporarily
Unavailable
When the vehicle enters this zone the blind
spot system will become temporarily unavail-
able and the EVIC will display the message “
Blind spot system unavailable-Astronomy 73

zone”. The side mirrors LED’s will be lit up and
stay lit until the vehicle exits the zone.
