Replacement Keys
NOTE:Only keys that have been programmed to the
vehicle electronics can be used to start the vehicle. Once
a Sentry Key has been programmed to a vehicle, it
cannot be programmed to any other vehicle.
NOTE: When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer
System serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an
authorized dealer.

frequency (RF) devices equipped in this vehicle:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and
with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the doors and
decklid for unauthorized entry and the ignition for
unauthorized operation. If something triggers the
alarm, the Vehicle Security Alarm will prevent the
vehicle from starting. It will also emit an acoustic signal
and flash the park lights, and taillights.
Operation
The alarm activates in the following cases:
1. Wrongful opening of one of the doors or the decklid (perimeter protection);
2. Wrongful operation of the ignition switch (key turned to MAR ON/RUN);
3. Cutting of the battery leads;
4. Anomalous lifting/tilting of the car.
Operation of the alarm is indicated by an acoustic and
visual signal (flashing of the direction indicators for
several seconds). The alarm activation modes may vary
according to the market. There is a maximum number
of acoustic/visual cycles. When this is reached the
system returns to normal operation.

WARNING!
•Do not drill, cut, or tamper with the knee impact
bolsters in any way.
• Do not mount any accessories to the knee impact
bolsters such as alarm lights, stereos, citizen band
radios, etc.
Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag
This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Driver
Knee Air Bag mounted in the instrument panel below
the steering column. The Supplemental Driver Knee Air
Bag provides enhanced protection during a frontal
impact by working together with the seat belts, preten-
sioners, and front air bags.
Supplemental Door-Integrated Side Air Bag
Inflatable Curtains (SABICs)
This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Door-
Integrated Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains (SABICs).
SABICs may help reduce the risk of head and other
injuries to front seat outboard occupants in certain side
impacts, in addition to the injury reduction potential
provided by the seat belts and body structure. The SABICs are located in the door trim below the side
windows. The trim covering the SABICs is labeled “SRS
AIRBAG” or “AIRBAG.”
The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or
complete ejection of vehicle occupants through side
windows in certain side impact events.
The SABICs deploy upward, covering the side win-
dows. An inflating SABIC pushes the outside edge of
the trim out of the way and covers the window. The
SABICs inflate with enough force to injure occupants if
they are not belted and seated properly, or if items are
positioned in the area where the SABICs inflate. Chil-
dren are at an even greater risk of injury from a
deploying air bag.
SABICs are designed to activate in certain side impacts.
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) determines
whether the deployment of the SABIC in a particular
impact event is appropriate, based on the severity and
type of collision. The side impact sensors aid the ORC in
determining the appropriate response to impact events.
The system is calibrated to deploy the SABIC on the
impact side of the vehicle during impacts that require
SABIC occupant protection. In side impacts, the SABICs
deploy independently; a left side impact deploys the

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”.
RADIO SYSTEM
The radio system consists of:
• Supply cables for radio, speakers and aerial
• Radio
• Antenna located on the inside of the front fascia
• Two tweeter speakers with 6 inch (38 mm) diameter
and two mid-woofer speakers with 20 inch (130 mm)
diameter, fitted on the doors
NOTE: Be sure to press the RESET button when using
the unit for the first time, after changing the vehicle
battery, or using the battery disconnect (anytime the
vehicle loses power).
For further information on radio functions and use,
refer to the Alpine Radio Supplement.
RADIO OPERATION AND MOBILE PHONES
Under certain conditions, the mobile phone being on in
your vehicle can cause erratic or noisy performance
from your radio. This condition may be lessened or
eliminated by relocating the mobile phone antenna.
This condition is not harmful to the radio. If your radio

performance does not satisfactorily “clear” by the repo-
sitioning of the antenna, it is recommended that the
radio volume be turned down or off during mobile
phone operation.

RSS 210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the
following conditions:
•Changes or modifications not expressly approved by

UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 131
The TPMS consists of the following components:
•Receiver Module.
• Four Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors.
• Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light.
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will illumi-
nate in the instrument cluster, an acoustic signal will be
activated, and the “Check left or right front/rear tire”
text message will display when one or more of the four
active road tire pressures are low. Should this occur, you
should stop as soon as possible, check the inflation
pressure of each tire on your vehicle, and inflate each
tire to the vehicle’s recommended cold placard pressure
value. The system will automatically update and the
Tire Pressure Monitoring Light will extinguish once the
updated tire pressures have been received. The vehicle
may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above
15 mph (24 km/h) to receive this information.
Check TPMS Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will flash on
and off for 75 seconds and remain on solid when a system fault is detected, the “TIRE PRESSURE MONI-
TORING UNAVAILABLE” text message will display. If
the ignition key is cycled, this sequence will repeat
providing the system fault still exists. The Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light will turn off when the fault
condition no longer exists. A system fault can occur
with any of the following scenarios:
1. Jamming due to electronic devices or driving next to
facilities emitting the same radio frequencies as the
TPM sensors.
2. Installing some form of aftermarket window tinting that affects radio wave signals.
3. Snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings.
4. Using tire chains on the vehicle.
5. Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM sensors.
NOTE: Your vehicle may be equipped with a compact
spare wheel and tire assembly.
1. The compact spare tire does not have a tire pressure monitoring sensor. Therefore, the TPMS will not
monitor the tire pressure in the compact spare tire.
188 STARTING AND OPERATING
Preparations For Jump-Start
The battery in your vehicle is located on the left side of
the engine compartment. To access the battery remove
the protective cover.
WARNING!
•Remove any metal jewelry such as rings, watch
bands and bracelets that could make an inadver-
tent electrical contact. You could be seriously
injured.
(Continued)
WARNING! (Continued)
•Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can burn your
skin or eyes and generate hydrogen gas which is
flammable and explosive. Keep open flames or
sparks away from the battery.
NOTE: Be sure that the disconnected ends of the cables
do not touch while still connected to the other vehicle.
1. Firmly apply the parking brake, and turn the ignition OFF.
2. Turn off the heater, radio, and all unnecessary elec- trical accessories.
3. To remove the protective cover off the battery, pull upward on the cover.
4. If using another vehicle to jump-start the battery, park the vehicle within the jumper cables reach, set
the parking brake and make sure the ignition is OFF.
WARNING!
Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as this
could establish a ground connection and personal
injury could result.
