To Decrease Speed
When the Speed Control is set, you can decrease speed
by tapping the speed control lever down (-).
The speed decrement shown is dependant on the speed
of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h) units:
U.S. Speed (mph)
•Tapping the speed control lever down (-) once will
result in a one mph decrease in set speed. Each
subsequent tap of the lever results in a decrease of
one mph.
• If the lever is continually held down, the set speed
will continue to decrease until the lever is released,
then the new set speed will be established.
Metric Speed (km/h)
• Tapping the speed control lever down (-) once will
result in a two km/h decrease in set speed. Each
subsequent tap of the lever results in a decrease of
two km/h.
• If the lever is continually held down, the set speed
will continue to decrease until the lever is released,
then the new set speed will be established.To Accelerate For Passing
Press the accelerator as you would normally. When the
pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the set speed.
To Resume Speed
To resume a previously set speed, push the RESUME
button, located on the end of the speed control stalk,
and release. Resume can be used at any speed above
18 mph (30 km/h).
To Deactivate
A soft tap on the brake pedal, pushing the CANCEL/
RESUME button on the end of the stalk, or normal
brake pressure while slowing the vehicle will deactivate
the Speed Control without erasing the set speed
memory. Rotating the end of the multifunction lever to
the O (off) position, or turning the ignition switch to
OFF, erases the set speed memory.

amount of a high quality lubricant, such as Mopar Lock
Cylinder Lubricant directly into the lock cylinder.
Wiper Blades
Clean the rubber edges of the wiper blades, the wind-
shield, and rear window periodically with a sponge or
soft cloth and a mild nonabrasive cleaner. This will
remove accumulations of salt, waxes, or road film, and
help reduce streaking and smearing.
Operation of the wipers on dry glass for long periods
may cause deterioration of the wiper blades. Always
use washer fluid when using the wipers to remove salt
or dirt from a dry windshield or rear window.
Avoid using the wiper blades to remove frost or ice from
the windshield or rear window. Make sure that they are
not frozen to the glass before turning them on to avoid
damaging the blade. Keep the wiper blade out of contact
with petroleum products such as engine oil, gasoline, etc.
NOTE:Life expectancy of wiper blades varies depend-
ing on geographical area and frequency of use. Poor
performance of blades may be present with chattering,
marks, water lines, or wet spots. If any of these condi-
tions are present, clean the wiper blades or replace as
necessary.
Blade Lifting
If it is necessary to lift the blade from the windshield (In
the event of snow or blade replacement) Proceed as
directed:
1. Rotate the end of the multifunction lever to the OFF position.
2. Turn the ignition to the MAR-ON position then to STOP.
3. After turning the ignition to the STOP, within two minutes move the right stalk upward, into the un-
stable (“anti-panic”) position, for at least half of a

three times. In order to move the blades to the most
suitable position.
4. Lift the blade from the windshield and proceed with the required operation.
5. Carefully lower the blade, bringing it back in contact with the windshield.
6. Bring the blade to the initial rest position, turning the ignition to MAR-ON.
NOTE: Do not operate the screen wiper with the blades
lifted from the windshield.
