2015 CHRYSLER 200 engine

WARNING!
• Never use the PARK position as a substitute for the parking brake. Always apply theparking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement and possible injury or
damage.
• Your vehicle could move and injure you and others if it is not in PARK. Make sure the
transmission is in PARK before leaving the vehicle.
• It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than idle
speed. If your foot is not firmly pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate
quickly forward or in reverse. You could lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or
something. Only shift into gear when the engine is idling normally and your foot is firmly
pressing the brake pedal.
• Unintended movement of a vehicle could injure those in or near the vehicle. As with all
vehicles, you should never exit a vehicle while the engine is running. Before exiting a
vehicle, always apply the parking brake, shift the transmission into PARK, turn the engine
OFF, and remove the key fob. When the ignition is in the OFF position, the transmission
is locked in PARK, securing the vehicle against unwanted movement.
• When leaving the vehicle, always make sure the ignition is in the OFF position, remove the
key fob from the vehicle, and lock the vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing
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 transmission gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle (or in a location accessible to children), and
do not leave the ignition in the ACC or ON/RUN position. A child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.

PADDLE SHIFT MODE
• When the transmission is in DRIVE orSPORT mode, it will operate automatically,
shifting between the nine available gears.
• To activate Paddle Shift mode, simply tap one of the steering wheel-mounted shift
paddles (+/-) while in DRIVE or SPORT
mode. Tapping (-) to enter Paddle Shift
mode will downshift the transmission to the
next lower gear, while using (+) to enter
Paddle Shift mode will retain the current
gear. When Paddle Shift is active, the cur-
rent transmission gear is displayed in the
instrument cluster.
• In Paddle Shift mode, the transmission will shift up or down when (+/-) is manually se-
lected by the driver, unless an engine lug-
ging or overspeed condition would result. It
will remain in the selected gear until another
upshift or downshift is chosen, except as
explained below.
• If Paddle Shift is engaged while in DRIVE mode, the transmission will automatically shift up when maximum engine speed is reached. Lack of accelerator pedal activity will cause the
transmission to revert to automatic operation.
• If Paddle Shift is engaged while in SPORT mode, the transmission will remain in the selected gear even when maximum engine speed is reached (except the transmission will upshift
automatically from 1st to 2nd gear at wide open throttle, if necessary). Otherwise, the
transmission will upshift only when commanded by the driver.
• In either DRIVE or SPORT mode, the transmission will automatically downshift as the vehicle slows to a stop (to prevent engine lugging) and will display the current gear. Tapping the (+)
paddle (at a stop) will allow starting in second gear. After a stop, the driver should manually
upshift (+) the transmission as the vehicle accelerates.
• Holding the (-) paddle depressed will downshift the transmission to the lowest gear possible at the current speed.
To disengage Paddle Shift mode, press and hold the (+) shift paddle until “D” or “S” is once again
indicated in the instrument cluster. You can shift in or out of Paddle Shift mode at any time
without taking your foot off the accelerator pedal.
WARNING!
Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a slippery surface. The drive wheels could
lose their grip and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or personal injury.

engine automatically during a vehicle stop if the required conditions are met. Releasing the brake
pedal or pressing the accelerator pedal on an automatic transmission will start the engine.
Automatic Mode
The Stop/Start feature is enabled after every normal customer engine start. It will remain in
STOP/START NOT READY until you drive forward with a vehicle speed greater than 5 mph
(8 km/h). At that time, the system will go into STOP/START READY and if all other conditions
are met, can go into a STOP/START AUTOSTOP ACTIVE “Autostop” mode.

telltale will illuminate indicating you are in Autostop. While in Autostop, the Climate Controls
system may automatically adjust airflow to maintain cabin comfort. Customer settings will be
