STARTING PROCEDURES
Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat,
adjust the inside and outside mirrors, fasten
your seat belt, and if present, instruct all other
occupants to buckle their seat belts.
WARNING!
•When leaving the vehicle, always remove
the key fob from the ignition and lock your
vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allow-
ing children to be in a vehicle unattended
is dangerous for a number of reasons.
A child or others could be seriously or
fatally injured. Children should be warned
not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal
or the shift lever.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
•Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle (or in a location accessible to chil-
dren), and do not leave a vehicle equipped
with Keyless Enter-N-Go™ in the ACC or
ON/RUN mode. A child could operate
power windows, other controls, or move
the vehicle.
Automatic TransmissionThe shift lever must be in the NEUTRAL or PARK
position before you can start the engine. Apply the
brakes before shifting into any driving gear.
CAUTION!
Damage to the transmission may occur if the
following precautions are not observed:
•Do not shift from REVERSE, PARK, or
NEUTRAL into any forward gear when the
engine is above idle speed.
(Continued)
CAUTION!(Continued)
•Shift into PARK only after the vehicle has
come to a complete stop.
• Shift into or out of REVERSE only after the
vehicle has come to a complete stop and
the engine is at idle speed.
• Before shifting into any gear, make sure
your foot is firmly on the brake pedal.
Using Fob With Integrated Key (Tip Start)
NOTE:
Normal starting of either a cold or a warm
engine is obtained without pumping or press-
ing the accelerator pedal.
Do not press the accelerator. Use the Fob with
Integrated Key to briefly turn the ignition switch to
the START position and release it as soon as the
starter engages. The starter motor will continue to
run, and it will disengage automatically when the
engine is running. If the engine fails to start, the
starter will disengage automatically in 10 sec-
onds. If this occurs, turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK position, wait 10 to 15 seconds, then
repeat the “Normal Starting” procedure.
220

If the shift lever is not in PARK and the ENGINE
START/STOP button is pressed once, the EVIC
(if equipped) will display a “Vehicle Not In Park”
message and the engine will remain running.
Never leave a vehicle out of the PARK position,
or it could roll.
NOTE:
If the ignition switch is left in the ACC or
RUN (engine not running) position and the
transmission is in PARK, the system will
automatically time out after 30 minutes of
inactivity and the ignition will switch to the
OFF position.
Keyless Enter-N-Go™ Functions – With
Driver’s Foot OFF The Brake Pedal/Clutch
Pedal (In PARK Or NEUTRAL Position)
The Keyless Enter-N-Go™ feature operates
similar to an ignition switch. It has four positions,
OFF, ACC, RUN and START. To change the
ignition switch positions without starting thevehicle and use the accessories follow these
steps.
•
Starting with the ignition switch in the OFF
position:
• Press the ENGINE START/STOP button
once to change the ignition switch to the ACC
position (EVIC displays “IGNITION MODE
ACCESSORY”),
• Press the ENGINE START/STOP button a
second time to change the ignition switch to
the RUN position (EVIC displays “IGNITION
MODE RUN”),
• Press the ENGINE START/STOP button a
third time to return the ignition switch to the
OFF position (EVIC displays “IGNITION
MODE OFF”).
Extreme Cold Weather (Below –20°F
Or 29°C)
To ensure reliable starting at these tempera-
tures, use of an externally powered electric
engine block heater (available from your autho-
rized dealer) is recommended.
If Engine Fails To Start
WARNING!
•
Never pour fuel or other flammable liquid
into the throttle body air inlet opening in an
attempt to start the vehicle. This could result
in flash fire causing serious personal injury.
•Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle
to get it started. Vehicles equipped with an
automatic transmission cannot be started
this way. Unburned fuel could enter the
catalytic converter and once the engine
has started, ignite and damage the con-
verter and vehicle.
• If the vehicle has a discharged battery,
booster cables may be used to obtain a
start from a booster battery or the battery
in another vehicle. This type of start can be
dangerous if done improperly. Refer to
“Jump Starting” in “What To Do In Emer-
gencies” for further information.
222

NOTE:
•Use of Climatized ULSD Diesel Fuel or
Number 1 ULSD Diesel Fuel results in a
noticeable decrease in fuel economy.
• Climatized ULSD Diesel Fuel is a blend of
Number 2 ULSD and Number 1 ULSD
Diesel Fuels, which reduces the tempera-
ture at which wax crystals form in fuel.
NOTE:
This engine requires the use of “Ultra Low
Sulfur Diesel Fuel.” Use of incorrect fuel
could result in exhaust system damage. Re-
fer to “Fuel Requirements – Diesel Engine”
in “Starting and Operating” for further infor-
mation.
Battery Blanket Usage
A battery loses 60% of its cranking power as the
battery temperature decreases to 0°F (-18°C).
For the same decrease in temperature, the en-
gine requires twice as much power to crank at the
same RPM. The use of battery blankets will
greatly increase starting capability at low tem-
peratures. Suitable battery blankets are available
from your authorized MOPAR® dealer.
Engine Starting Procedure
WARNING!
NEVER pour fuel or other flammable liquid
into the air inlet opening in an attempt to start
the vehicle. This could result in a flash fire
causing serious personal injury.
1. The shift lever must be in the NEUTRAL or
PARK position before you can start the engine.
2. With your foot on the brake pedal, press the
ENGINE START/STOP button.
3. Watch the “Wait To Start Light” in the instru-
ment cluster. Refer to “Instrument Cluster” in
“Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for fur-
ther information. It may glow for up to three
seconds, depending on engine temperature.
4. When the “Wait To Start Light” goes out, the
engine will automatically start.
5. After the engine starts, allow it to idle for
approximately 30 seconds before driving. This
allows oil to circulate and lubricate the turbo-
charger. Avoid prolonged idling in ambient temperatures
below 0°F (-18°C). Long periods of idling may
be harmful to your engine because combustion
chamber temperatures can drop so low that the
fuel may not burn completely. Incomplete com-
bustion allows carbon and varnish to form on
piston rings and injector nozzles. Also, the
unburned fuel can enter the crankcase, diluting
the oil and causing rapid wear to the engine.
Engine Warm Up
Avoid full throttle operation when the engine is
cold. When starting a cold engine, bring the
engine up to operating speed slowly to allow the
oil pressure to stabilize as the engine warms up.
NOTE:
High-speed, no-load running of a cold engine
can result in excessive white smoke and poor
engine performance. No-load engine speeds
should be kept under 1,200 RPM during the
warm-up period, especially in cold ambient
temperature conditions.
If temperatures are below 32°F (0°C), operate
the engine at moderate speeds for five minutes
before full loads are applied.
