2015 CHRYSLER 200 warning

IF YOU ARE THE FIRST REGISTERED RETAIL OWNER OF YOUR VEHICLE,
YOU MAY OBTAIN A COMPLIMENTARY PRINTED COPY OF THE OWNER’S
MANUAL, NAVIGATION/UCONNECT® MANUALS OR WARRANTY BOOKLET
BY CALLING 1-800-247-9753 (U.S.) OR 1-80 0 -3 87-1143 (CANADA) OR BY
CONTACTING YOUR DEALER.
The driver’s primary responsibility is the safe operation of the vehicle. Driving while distracted can
result in loss of vehicle control, resulting in a collision and personal injury. Chrysler Group LLC
strongly recommends that the driver use extreme caution when using any device or feature that
may take their attention off the road. Use of any electrical devices, such as cellular telephones,
computers, portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices, by the driver while the vehicle is
moving is dangerous and could lead to a serious collision. Texting while driving is also dangerous
and should never be done while the vehicle is moving. If you find yourself unable to devote your
full attention to vehicle operation, pull off the road to a safe location and stop your vehicle. Some
states or provinces prohibit the use of cellular telephones or texting while driving. It is always the
driver’s responsibility to comply with all local laws.
IMPORTANT: This User Guide is intended to familiarize you with the important
features of your vehicle. The DVD enclosed contains your Owner’s Manual, Navigation/
Uconnect® Manuals, Warranty Booklets, Tire Warranty and Roadside Assistance
(new vehicles purchased in the U.S.) or Roadside Assistance (new vehicles purchased
in Canada) in electronic format. We hope you find it useful. Replacement DVD kits may
be purchased by visiting www.techauthority.com. Copyright 2014 Chrysler Group LLC.
This guide has been prepared to help you get quickly acquainted with your new Chrysler
and to provide a convenient reference source for common questions. However, it is not a
substitute for your Owner’s Manual. For complete operational instructions, maintenance
procedures and important safety messages, please consult your Owner’s Manual,
Navigation/ Uconnect® Manuals and other Warning Labels in your vehicle. Not all
features shown in this guide may apply to your vehicle. For additional information on
accessories to help personalize your vehicle, visit mopar.com (U.S.), mopar.ca (Canada)
or your local Chrysler dealer.
DRIVING AND ALCOHOL: Drunken driving is one of the most frequent
causes of collisions. Your driving ability can be seriously impaired with blood alcohol levels
far below the legal minimum. If you are drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated
non-drinking driver, call a cab, a friend, or use public transportation.
WARNING!
Driving after drinking can lead to a collision. Your perceptions are less sharp, your reflexes are slower, and your judgment is impaired when you have been drinking. Never drink and then drive.

• Failure to properly follow floor mat installation or mounting can cause interference with
the brake pedal and accelerator pedal operation causing loss of control of 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

WARNING!
• When leaving the vehicle, always make sure the ignition is in the OFF position, remove the key fob from the vehicle, and lock your 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). A

outside, or through the inside of the vehicle. Always close the trunk lid when your vehicle is
unattended. Once in the trunk, young children may not be able to escape, even if they entered
through the rear seat. If trapped in the trunk, children can die from suffocation or heat stroke.

SEAT BELT SYSTEMS
Lap/Shoulder Belts
• All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped with lap/shoulder belts.
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
• Position the lap belt so that it is snug and lies low across your hips, below your abdomen. Toremove slack in the lap belt portion, pull up on the shoulder belt. To loosen the lap belt if it is
too tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on the lap belt. A snug seat belt reduces the risk of sliding
under the seat belt in a collision.
• Position the shoulder belt across the shoulder and chest with minimal, if any slack so that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck. The retractor will withdraw any slack in the shoulder
belt.
Seat Belt Pretensioner
• The front seat belt system is equipped with pretensioning devices that are designed to removeslack from the seat belt in the event of a collision.
• A deployed pretensioner or a deployed air bag must be replaced immediately.
WARNING!
• In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not properly buckled up. You can strike the interior of your vehicle or other passengers, or you
can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others in your vehicle are buckled
up properly.
• A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during a collision. You
are more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not wear your shoulder belt. The lap
and shoulder belt are meant to be used together.
• A seat belt that is too loose will not protect you properly. In a sudden stop, you could move
too far forward, increasing the possibility of injury. Wear your seat belt snugly.
• A frayed or torn seat belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection.
Inspect the seat belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts. Damaged
parts must be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the system. Seat belt
assemblies must be replaced after a collision.
