3.Attach the tether strap hook of the child restraint to the top tether anchorage and
remove slack in the tether strap according to the child restraint manufacturer’s instruc-
tions.
WARNING!
•In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projectile inside
the vehicle.The force required to hold even an infant on your lap could become
so great that you could not hold the child, no matter how strong you are.The
child and others could be severely injured or killed.Any child riding in your vehicle
should be in a proper restraint for the child's size.
•Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an air bag.A deploying Passen-
ger Advanced Front Air Bag can cause death or serious injury to a child 12 years
or younger, including a child in a rear-facing child restraint.
•Only use a rear-facing child restraint in a vehicle with a rear seat.
•Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages can lead to
failure of an infant or child restraint.The child could be severely injured or killed.
Follow the manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant or child re-
straint.
•An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and
possible injury to the child.Use only the anchor positions directly behind the child
seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap.
•If your vehicle is equipped with a split rear seat, make sure the tether strap does
not slip into the opening between the seatbacks as you remove slack in the strap.
HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to reduce the risk of injury by restricting head movement in
the event of a rear-impact.Head restraints should be adjusted so that the top of the
head restraint is located above the top of your ear.
WARNING!
The head restraints for all occupants must be properly adjusted prior to operating the
vehicle or occupying a seat.Head restraints should never be adjusted while the vehicle
is in motion.Driving a vehicle with the head restraints improperly adjusted or removed
could cause serious injury or death in the event of a collision.

CYBERSECURITY
Your vehicle may be a connected vehicle and may be equipped with both wired and
wireless networks.These networks allow your vehicle to send and receive information.
This information allows systems and features in your vehicle to function properly.
Your vehicle may be equipped with certain security features to reduce the risk of unau-
thorized and unlawful access to vehicle systems and wireless communications.Vehicle soft-
ware technology continues to evolve over time and FCA US LLC, working with its suppli-
ers, evaluates and takes appropriate steps as needed.Similar to a computer or other
devices, your vehicle may require software updates to improve the usability and perfor-
mance of your systems or to reduce the potential risk of unauthorized and unlawful ac-
cess to your vehicle systems.
The risk of unauthorized and unlawful access to your vehicle systems may still exist, even
if the most recent version of vehicle software (such as Uconnect software) is installed.
WARNING!
•It is not possible to know or to predict all of the possible outcomes if your vehi-
cle’s systems are breached.It may be possible that vehicle systems, including safety
related systems, could be impaired or a loss of vehicle control could occur that
may result in an accident involving serious injury or death.
•ONLY insert media (e.g., USB, SD card, or CD) into your vehicle if it came from a
trusted source.Media of unknown origin could possibly contain malicious software,
and if installed in your vehicle, it may increase the possibility for vehicle systems to
be breached.
•As always, if you experience unusual vehicle behavior, take your vehicle to your
nearest authorized dealer immediately.
NOTE:
•FCA or your dealer may contact you directly regarding software updates.
•To help further improve vehicle security and minimize the potential risk of a security
breach, vehicle owners should:
•Routinely check www.driveuconnect.com/software-update to learn about available
Uconnect software updates.
•Only connect and use trusted media devices (e.g.personal mobile phones, USBs,
CDs).
