8. Do not lean against the door or window. If yourvehicle has side air bags, and deployment occurs, the
side air bags will inflate forcefully into the space
between occupants and the door and occupants
could be injured.
9. If the air bag system in this vehicle needs to be modified to accommodate a disabled person, contact
the Customer Center. Phone numbers are provided
under If You Need Consumer Assistance.
WARNING!
•Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of
an air bag. A deploying passenger 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.
Seat Belt Systems
Buckle up even though you are an excellent driver, even
on short trips. Someone on the road may be a poor
driver and could cause a collision that includes you.
This can happen far away from home or on your own
street.
Research has shown that seat belts save lives, and they
can reduce the seriousness of injuries in a collision.
Some of the worst injuries happen when people are
thrown from the vehicle. Seat belts reduce the possibil-
ity of ejection and the risk of injury caused by striking
the inside of the vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle
should be belted at all times.
Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder System
(BeltAlert)
Driver And Passenger BeltAlert (If Equipped)
BeltAlert is a feature intended to remind the
driver and outboard front seat passenger (if
equipped with outboard front passenger seat
BeltAlert) to buckle their seat belts. The Belt Alert
feature is active whenever the ignition switch is in
the AVV/START or MAR/ON/RUN position. 2
THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 25

CAUTION!
•The Parking Sensor system is only a parking aid
and it is unable to recognize every obstacle,
including small obstacles. Parking curbs might be
temporarily detected or not detected at all. Ob-
stacles located above or below the sensors will
not be detected when they are in close proximity
• The vehicle must be driven slowly when using
the Parking Sensor system in order to be able to
stop in time when an obstacle is detected. It is
recommended that the driver looks over his/her
shoulder when using the Parking Sensor system.
POWER OUTLETS
Your vehicle is equipped with a 12 Volt (13 Amp) power
outlet that can be used to power cellular phones, small
electronics and other low powered electrical accesso-
ries. The power outlet is located on the central tunnel,
between the two cup holders. It only operates with the
ignition key at MAR/ON.

WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•Only devices designed for use in this type of
outlet should be inserted into any 12 Volt outlet.
• Do not touch with wet hands.
• Close the lid when not in use and while driving
the vehicle.
• If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an
electric shock and failure.
CAUTION!
• Many accessories that can be plugged in draw
power from the vehicle’s battery, even when not
in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if
plugged in long enough, the vehicle’s battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life
and/or prevent the engine from starting.
• Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the
battery even more quickly. Only use these inter-
mittently and with greater caution.
• After the use of high power draw accessories, or
long periods of the vehicle not being started (with
accessories still plugged in), the vehicle must be
driven a sufficient length of time to allow the
generator to recharge the vehicle’s battery.
CAUTION!
• Do not exceed the maximum power of 180 Watts
(15 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the 180 Watts (15 Amps)
power rating is exceeded, the fuse protecting the
system will need to be replaced.

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 vehicle’s systems are
breached. It may be possible that vehicle systems,
including safety related systems, could be im-
paired 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 ve-
hicle, 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 autho-
rized dealer immediately. NOTE:
•
FCA or your dealer may contact you directly regard-
ing software updates.
• To help further improve vehicle security and mini-
mize 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).
Privacy of any wireless and wired communications
cannot be assured. Third parties may unlawfully inter-
cept information and private communications without
your consent. For further information, refer to “On-
board Diagnostic System (OBD II) Cybersecurity” in
“Maintaining Your Vehicle”.
