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.
FCA US 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.
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.
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 1-877-426-5337 (U.S.) or 1-800-387-1143 (Canada)
or by contacting your dealer.
