CHARGING THE HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY
1.Put the vehicle in PARK.
2.Turn the ignition to the OFF position.
3.Remove the Level 1 EVSE from its storage bin by lifting the rear cargo cover.
4.Uncoil the entire length of the EVSE
(charge cord).
5.Plug the EVSE into a standard 120V AC
outlet that is properly grounded.It is
recommended that the EVSE is con-
nected to an AC outlet on a circuit
which is not electrically loaded by other
devices.Extension cords may not be
used.
NOTE:
All of the EVSE LED’s illuminate green.
6.Open the charge receptacle door.
NOTE:
The charge receptacle door is locked
whenever the vehicle is locked.Unlock the doors to unlock the charge receptacle door
for charging.
7.Plug the EVSE into the charge receptacle.Push the EVSE in firmly until it is completely
engaged (if not completely engaged the vehicle may not charge).

Sealing A Tire With Tire Service Kit
(A) Whenever You Stop To Use Tire Service Kit:
1.Pull over to a safe location and turn on the vehicle’s Hazard Warning flashers.
2.Verify that the valve stem (on the wheel with the deflated tire) is in a position that is
near to the ground.This will allow the Tire Service Kit Hoses (6) and (7) to reach the
valve stem and keep the Tire Service Kit flat on the ground.This will provide the best
positioning of the kit when injecting the sealant into the deflated tire and running the
air pump.Move the vehicle as necessary to place the valve stem in this position be-
fore proceeding.
3.Place the transmission in PARK (auto transmission) or in Gear (manual transmission)
and place the ignition in the OFF position.
4.Set the parking brake.
(B) Setting Up To Use Tire Service Kit:
1.Push in the Mode Select Knob (5) and turn to the Sealant Mode position.
2.Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) and then remove the cap from the fitting at the end of
the hose.
3.Place the Tire Service Kit flat on the ground next to the deflated tire.
4.Remove the cap from the valve stem and then screw the fitting at the end of the
Sealant Hose (6) onto the valve stem.
5.Uncoil the Power Plug (8) and insert the plug into the vehicle’s 12 Volt power outlet.
NOTE:
Do not remove foreign objects (e.g., screws or nails) from the tire.
(C) Injecting Tire Service Kit Sealant Into The Deflated Tire:
•Always start the engine before turning ON the Tire Service Kit.
NOTE:
Manual transmission vehicles must have the parking brake engaged and the gear selector
in NEUTRAL.
•After pushing the Power Button (4), the sealant (white fluid) will flow from the Sealant
Bottle (1) through the Sealant Hose (6) and into the tire.
NOTE:
Sealant may leak out through the puncture in the tire.

CAUTION!
•The metal end fitting from Power Plug (8) may get hot after use, so it should be
handled carefully.
•Failure to reinstall the cap on the fitting at the end of the Sealant Hose (6) can
result in sealant contacting your skin, clothing, and the vehicle’s interior.It can also
result in sealant contacting internal Tire Service Kit components which may cause
permanent damage to the kit.
(D) Drive Vehicle:
Immediately after injecting sealant and inflating the tire, drive the vehicle 5 miles (8 km)
or 10 minutes to ensure distribution of the Tire Service Kit Sealant within the tire.Do
not exceed 55 mph (90 km/h).
WARNING!
Tire Service Kit is not a permanent flat tire repair.Have the tire inspected and repaired
or replaced after using Tire Service Kit.Do not exceed 55 mph (90 km/h) until the tire
is repaired or replaced.Failure to follow this warning can result in injuries that are seri-
ous or fatal to you, your passengers, and others around you.
(E) After Driving:
Pull over to a safe location.Refer to “Whenever You Stop to Use Tire Service Kit” before
continuing.
1.Push in the Mode Select Knob (5) and turn to the Air Mode position.
2.Uncoil the power plug and insert the plug into the vehicle's 12 Volt power outlet.
3.Uncoil the Air Pump Hose (7) (black in color) and screw the fitting at the end of
hose (7) onto the valve stem.
4.Check the pressure in the tire by reading the Pressure Gauge (3).
If tire pressure is less than 19 psi (1.3 Bar):
The tire is too badly damaged.Do not attempt to drive the vehicle further.Call for assis-
tance.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
94
If the tire pressure is 19 psi (1.3 Bar) or higher:
1.Push the Power Button (4) to turn on Tire Service Kit and inflate the tire to the pres-
sure indicated on the tire and loading information label on the driver-side door open-
ing.
NOTE:
If the tire becomes over-inflated, push the Deflation Button to reduce the tire pressure
to the recommended inflation pressure before continuing.
2.Disconnect the Tire Service Kit from the valve stem, reinstall the cap on the valve
stem and unplug from 12 Volt outlet.
3.Place the Tire Service Kit in its proper storage area in the vehicle.
4.Have the tire inspected and repaired or replaced at the earliest opportunity at an
authorized dealer or tire service center.
5.Remove the Speed Limit sticker from the instrument panel after the tire has been
repaired.
6.Replace the Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (6) assembly at your authorized
dealer as soon as possible.Refer to (F) “Sealant Bottle and Hose Replacement”.
NOTE:
When having the tire serviced, advise the authorized dealer or service center that the
tire has been sealed using the Tire Service Kit.
(F) Sealant Bottle And Hose Replacement:
1.Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) (clear in color).
2.Locate the round Sealant Bottle release button in the recessed area under the sealant
bottle.
3.Push the Sealant Bottle release button.The Sealant Bottle (1) will pop up.Remove the
bottle and dispose of it accordingly.
4.Clean any remaining sealant from the Tire Service Kit housing.
5.Position the new Sealant Bottle (1) in the housing so that the Sealant Hose (6) aligns
with the hose slot in the front of the housing.Push the bottle into the housing.An
audible click will be heard indicating the bottle is locked into place.
6.Verify that the cap is installed on the fitting at the end of the Sealant Hose (6) and
return the hose to its storage area (located on the bottom of the air pump).
7.Return the Tire Service Kit to its storage location in the vehicle.

CAUTION!
•Mixing of coolant (antifreeze) other than specified Organic Additive Technology
(OAT) coolant (antifreeze), may result in cooling system damage and may decrease
corrosion protection.Organic Additive Technology (OAT) coolant is different and
should not be mixed with Hybrid Organic Additive Technology (HOAT) coolant
(antifreeze).If a non-OAT coolant (antifreeze) is introduced into the cooling sys-
tem in an emergency, it should be replaced with the specified coolant (antifreeze)
as soon as possible.
•Do not use water alone or alcohol-based coolant (antifreeze) products.Do not
use additional rust inhibitors or antirust products, as they may not be compatible
with the radiator coolant and may plug the radiator.
•This vehicle has not been designed for use with propylene glycol-based coolant
(antifreeze).Use of propylene glycol-based coolant (antifreeze) is not recom-
mended.

Wheel And Wheel Trim Care
All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome plated wheels, should be
cleaned regularly with a mild soap and water to prevent corrosion.
To remove heavy soil and/or excessive brake dust, use MOPAR Wheel Cleaner or equiva-
lent or select a non-abrasive, non-acidic cleaner.
CAUTION!
Do not use scouring pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, or metal polishes.Do not use
oven cleaner.These products may damage the wheel's protective finish.Avoid automatic
car washes that use acidic solutions or harsh brushes that may damage the wheel's pro-
tective finish.Only MOPAR Wheel Cleaner or equivalent is recommended.
TIRE ROTATION RECOMMENDATIONS
NOTE:
The front and rear wheels are different sizes and cannot be used in place of each other.
Rotate the wheels “side-to-side” as shown in the diagram.
The tires on the front and rear of your
vehicle operate at different loads and per-
form different steering, driving, and braking
functions.For these reasons, they wear at
unequal rates.
These effects can be reduced by timely
rotation of tires.The benefits of rotation
are especially worthwhile with aggressive
tread designs such as those on all season
type tires.Rotation will increase tread life, help to maintain mud, snow and wet traction
levels, and contribute to a smooth, quiet ride.
Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for the proper maintenance intervals.The reasons
for any rapid or unusual wear should be corrected prior to rotation being performed.
