RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND MOBILE PHONES
Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones, CB radios, amateur radio etc.) cannot be used inside the vehicle unless a
separate aerial is mounted externally.
Transmission and reception of these devices may be affected by the shielding effect of the vehicle body. As far as the use of
EC-approved mobile phones is concerned (GSM, GPRS, UMTS, LTE), follow the usage instructions provided by the mobile
phone Manufacturer.
The use of these devices inside the vehicle (without an external aerial) may cause the electrical systems to malfunction. This
could compromise the vehicle safety in addition to constituting a potential hazard for passengers' health.
If mobile phones/laptops/smartphones/tablets are inside the vehicle and/or close to the electronic key, a reduced performance
of the Advanced Keyless Entry System may occur.
CELL PHONE WARNING
IMPORTANT: Please comply with the legal regulations concerning the use of communication equipment in vehicles in your
country. Use of any electrical devices such as cell phones, computers, portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices by
the driver while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. Dialing a number on a cell phone while driving also ties-up the driver's
hands. Use of these devices will cause the driver to be distracted and could lead to a serious accident. If a passenger is unable
to use the device, pull off the right-of-way to a safe area before use. If use of a cell phone is necessary despite this warning, use
a hands-free system to at least leave the hands free to drive the vehicle. Never use a cell phone or other electrical devices while
the vehicle is moving and, instead, concentrate on the full-time job of driving.

5. Insert a new battery with the positive
pole facing up. Then, cover the battery
with the battery cap.
6. Close the cover and reinsert the
Emergency Key.
Note:Be careful not to allow the
rubber ring shown in call-out (6) to be scratched or damaged. If the rubber
ring comes out, reinstall it before
inserting a new battery.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

VEHICLE SECURITY
ALARM SYSTEM — IF
EQUIPPED
Modifications And
Add-On Equipment
FCA cannot guarantee the immobilizer
and the Security Alarm System
operation if the system has been
modified or if any add-on equipment
has been installed.
Note:To avoid damage to the vehicle,
do not modify the system or install any
add-on equipment to the immobilizer
and the Security Alarm System or the
vehicle.
Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system allows the
engine to start only with a key fob the
system recognizes.
If someone attempts to start the engine
with an unrecognized key fob, the
engine will not start, thereby helping to
prevent unlawful vehicle use.
If you have a problem with the
immobilizer system or the key fob,
contact an Authorized Dealership.
To avoid damage to the key fob, do not:
Drop the key fob.
Get the key fob wet.
Expose the key fob to any kind of
magnetic field.
Expose the key fob to high
temperatures on places such as the
instrument panel, hood, or under direct
sunlight.
Note:
Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
If the engine does not start with the
correct key fob, and thewarning
light keeps illuminating or flashing, the
system may have a malfunction.
Contact an Authorized Dealership.
The key fobs carry a unique
electronic code. For this reason, and to
assure your safety, obtaining a
replacement key fob can only be done
through your Authorized Dealership,
and will require some waiting time.
Always keep a spare key fob in
case one is lost. If a key fob is lost,
contact an Authorized Dealership as
soon as possible.
If you lose a key fob, an Authorized
Dealership will reset the electronic
codes of your remaining key fobs and
immobilizer system. Bring all the
remaining key fobs to an Authorized
Dealership to reset. Starting the vehicle
with a key fob that has not been reset
is not possible. Operation
The engine may not start and
warning light may illuminate or flash
if the key fob is placed in an area where
it is difficult for the system to detect the
signal, such as on the instrument panel.
Move the key fob to a location within
the signal range, cycle the ignition off,
and then restart the engine.
Note: Signals from a TV, radio station,
transceiver, or mobile telephone could
interfere with your immobilizer system. If
you are using the proper key fob and
the engine fails to start, check the
warning light.
Arming
The system is armed when the ignition
is cycled from the ON to OFF position.
The
warning light in the instrument
cluster flashes every two seconds until
the system is disarmed.
Disarming
The system is disarmed when the
ignition is placed in the ON position with
the correct programmed key fob. The
warning light illuminates for about
three seconds and then turns off. If the
engine does not start with the correct
key fob, and the
warning light
remains illuminated or flashing, try the
following:
Make sure the key fob is within the
operational range for signal
transmission.

SUGGESTIONS FOR
OBTAINING SERVICE
FOR YOUR VEHICLE
Prepare For The
Appointment
If you are having warranty work done,
be sure to have the right papers with
you. Take your warranty folder. All work
to be performed may not be covered by
the warranty. Discuss additional
charges with the service manager. Keep
a maintenance log of your vehicle's
service history. This can often provide a
clue to the current problem.
Prepare A List
Make a written list of your vehicle's
problems or the specific work you want
done. If you've had an accident or work
done that is not on your maintenance
log, let the service advisor know.
Be Reasonable With
Requests
If you list a number of items and you
must have your vehicle by the end of
the day, discuss the situation with the
service advisor and list the items in
order of priority. At many authorized
dealers, you may obtain a rental vehicle
at a minimal daily charge. If you need a
rental, it is advisable to make these
arrangements when you call for an
appointment.
