WELCOME FROM CHRYSLER GROUP LLC
Congratulations on selecting your new Chrysler Group LLC vehicle. Be assured that it
represents precision workmanship, distinctive styling, and high quality - all essentials that
are traditional to our vehicles.
Your new Chrysler Group LLC vehicle has characteristics to enhance the driver's control
under some driving conditions. These are to assist the driver and are never a substitute for
attentive driving. They can never take the driver's place. Always drive carefully.
Your new vehicle has many features for the comfort and convenience of you and your
passengers. Some of these should not be used when driving because they take your eyes
from the road or your attention from driving. Never text while driving or take your eyes more
than momentarily off the road.
This guide illustrates and describes the operation of features and equipment that are either
standard or optional on this vehicle. This guide may also include a description of features
and equipment that are no longer available or were not ordered on this vehicle. Please
disregard any features and equipment described in this guide that are not available on this
vehicle. Chrysler Group LLC reserves the right to make changes in design and specifica-
tions and/or make additions to or improvements to its products without imposing any
obligation upon itself to install them on products previously manufactured.
This User Guide has been prepared to help you quickly become acquainted with the
important features of your vehicle. It contains most things you will need to operate and
maintain the vehicle, including emergency information.
The DVD includes a computer application containing detailed owner's information which
can be viewed on a personal computer or MAC computer. The multimedia DVD also includes
videos which can be played on any standard DVD player (including the Uconnect® Touch-
Screen Radios). Additional DVD operational information is located on the back of the DVD
sleeve.
For complete owner information, refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD in the owner’s
kit provided at the time of new vehicle purchase.For your convenience, the information
contained on the DVD may also be printed and saved for future reference.
Chrysler Group LLC is committed to protecting our environment and natural resources. By
converting from paper to electronic delivery for the majority of the user information for your
vehicle, together we greatly reduce the demand for tree-based products and lessen the
stress on our environment.

Turn Signal/Lane Change Assist
• Tap the lever up or down once and the turn signal (right or left) will flash three times andautomatically turn off.
Front Wipers
Intermittent, Low And High Operation
• Rotate the end of the lever to the first detent position for one of four intermittent settings, the second detent for low wiper operation and the third detent for high wiper operation.
Mist
• Rotate the end of the lever downward when a single wipe is desired.
NOTE:
The mist feature does not activate the washer pump; therefore, no washer fluid will be

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
• If your vehicle is equipped with adaptive cruise control the controls operate exactly thesame as the standard cruise control with one difference. You can set a specified distance
you would like to maintain between you and the vehicle in front of you.
• If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC will apply limited braking or acceleration automatically to maintain a preset following distance, while matching the speed of the
vehicle ahead.
• If the sensor does not detect a vehicle directly ahead of you, it functions like a standard cruise control system, maintaining the speed you set.
Distance Setting (ACC Only)
• The specified following distance for ACC can be set by varying the distance setting between 3 (long), 2 (medium), and 1 (short). Using this distance setting and the vehicle
speed, ACC calculates and sets the distance to the vehicle ahead. This distance setting
displays in the EVIC.
• To set or change the distance setting, press the Distance button and release. Each time the button is pressed, the distance setting adjusts between long (3), medium (2), and
short (1). The distance setting will default to the last set mode the next time the vehicle is
restarted and the ACC system is turned on.
Mode (ACC Only)
• If desired, the Adaptive Cruise Control mode can be turned off and the system can be operated as a standard (fixed speed) Cruise Control. When in the standard (fixed speed)
Cruise Control mode the distance setting feature will be disabled and the system will
maintain the speed you set.
• To change modes, press the MODE button when the system is in either the OFF, READY, or SET position. “Cruise Ready” will be displayed if the system was in ACC READY or ACC
SET position. “Cruise Off” will be displayed if the system was in the ACC OFF position. To
switch back to Adaptive Cruise Control mode, press the MODE button a second time.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information.
Forward Collision Warning
• The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system provides the driver with audible and visual warnings (within the EVIC) when it detects a potential frontal collision. The warnings are
intended to provide the driver with enough time to react and avoid the potential collision.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE

Changing FCW Status
• The FCW feature has three settings and can be changed within the Uconnect® System:•Far
• Near
• Off
NOTE:
The FCW settings can only be changed when the vehicle is in PARK.
Far
• The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting.
• The far setting provides warnings for potential collisions more distant in front of the vehicle, allowing the driver to have the most reaction time to avoid a collision.
• This setting is designed to provide early warnings per NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) recommendations.
• More cautious drivers that do not mind frequent warnings may prefer this setting.
NOTE:
This setting gives you the most reaction time.
Near
• Changing the FCW status to the “Near” setting, allows the system to warn you of a potential frontal collision when you are much closer.
• This setting provides less reaction time than the “Far” setting, which allows for a more dynamic driving experience.
• More dynamic or aggressive drivers that want to avoid frequent warnings may prefer this setting.
Off
• Changing the FCW status to “Off” prevents the system from warning you of a potential frontal collision.
NOTE:
• If FCW is set to “Off”, “FCW OFF” will be displayed in the EVIC.
• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

• The iPod® battery charges when plugged into the USB port (if supported by the specificdevice).
• To route the USB/iPod® cable out of the center console, use the access cut out in the front of the console.
NOTE:
• When connecting your iPod® device for the first time, the system may take several minutes to read your music, depending on the number of files. For example, the system
will take approximately 5 minutes for every 1000 songs loaded on the device. Also during
the reading process, the Shuffle and Browse functions will be disabled. This process is
needed to ensure the full use of your iPod® features and only happens the first time it is
connected. After the first time, the reading process of your iPod® will take considerably
less time unless changes are made or new songs are added to the playlist.
• The USB port supports certain Mini, Classic, Nano, Touch, and iPhone® devices. The USB port also supports playing music from compatible external USB Mass Storage Class
memory devices. Some iPod® software versions may not fully support the USB port
features. Please visit Apple’s website for iPod® software updates.

• If equipped with Uconnect® Voice Command, your Bluetooth-equipped iPod® devices, cell phones or other media players, may also be able to stream music to your vehicle's
sound system. Your connected device must be Bluetooth-compatible, and paired with
your Uconnect® system (see Uconnect® Phone for pairing instructions). You can access
the music from your connected Bluetooth® device by touching the Source soft-key while
in Player mode.
