2018 CHRYSLER PACIFICA HYBRID warning

WARNING!(Continued)
•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 suffi-
ciently to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
vehicle from starting.
• Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the battery
even more quickly. Only use these intermittently and
with greater caution.
• After the use of high power draw accessories, or long
periods of the vehicle not being started (with acces-
sories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
(Continued)
CAUTION! (Continued)
sufficient length of time to allow the generator to
recharge the vehicle’s battery or plug the vehicle in
with EVSE charger.
• The vehicle uses a power inverter connected to the
HV battery to charge the 12V battery as well as
supports the 12V electrical loads, when the vehicle is
not ON.
Power Inverter — If Equipped
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt Power Inverter outlet located
on the right side of the vehicle, before the third row of seats
to convert DC current to AC current. The Power Inverter
can power cellular phones, electronics and other low
power devices requiring up to 150 Watts. Certain high-end
video game consoles will exceed this power limit, as will
most power tools.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 147

The Power Inverter turns on when the device is plugged in,
and the ignition is in RUN mode. It turns off when the
device is unplugged or the ignition is no longer in RUN
mode.
The Power Inverter is designed with built-in overload
protection. If the power rating of 150 Watts is exceeded, the
Power Inverter shuts down. Once the electrical device has
been removed from the Power Inverter, it resets. To avoid
overloading the circuit, check the power ratings on electri-
cal devices prior to using the Power Inverter.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•Do not insert any objects into the receptacles.
• Do not touch with wet hands.
• Close the lid when not in use.
• If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric
shock and failure.
Cigar Lighter — If Equipped
NOTE: Cigar lighters can be purchased at an authorized
dealer through Mopar parts.
The cigar lighter is located at the bottom of the instrument
panel. Push lighter inward to heat.
After a few seconds, the lighter automatically returns to its
initial position and is ready to be used.
WARNING!
When the cigar lighter is in use it becomes very hot. To
avoid serious injury, handle the cigar lighter with care.
Always check that the cigar lighter has turned off.

WARNING!
Cargo must be securely tied down before driving your
vehicle. Improperly secured loads can fly off the ve-
hicle, particularly at high speeds, resulting in personal
injury or property damage. Follow the roof rack cau-
tions when carrying cargo on your roof rack.
CAUTION!
•To prevent damage to the roof of your vehicle, DO
NOT carry any loads on the roof rack without the
crossbars deployed. The load should be secured and
placed on top of the crossbars, not directly on the
roof. If it is necessary to place the load on the roof,
place a blanket or other protective layer between the
load and the roof surface.
• To avoid damage to the roof rack and vehicle, do not
exceed the maximum roof rack load capacity of 150 lb
(68 kg). Always distribute heavy loads as evenly as
possible and secure the load appropriately.
• Load should always be secured to cross bars first,
with tie down loops used as additional securing
(Continued)
CAUTION! (Continued)
points if needed. Tie loops are intended as supple-
mentary tie down points only. Do not use ratcheting
mechanisms with the tie loops. Check the straps and
thumb wheels frequently to be sure that the load
remains securely attached.
• Long loads that extend over the windshield, such as
wood panels or surfboards, or loads with large
frontal area should be secured to both the front and
rear of the vehicle.
• Travel at reduced speeds and turn corners carefully
when carrying large or heavy loads on the roof rack.
Wind forces, due to natural causes or nearby truck
traffic, can add sudden upward lift to a load. This is
especially true on large flat loads and may result in
damage to the cargo or your vehicle.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY
Your vehicle is equipped with an instrument cluster dis-
play, which offers useful information to the driver. With the
ignition in the STOP/OFF mode, opening/closing of a
door will activate the display for viewing, and display the
total miles or kilometers in the odometer. Your instrument
cluster display is designed to display important informa-
tion about your vehicle’s systems and features. Using a
driver interactive display located on the instrument panel,
your instrument cluster display can show you how sys-
tems are working and give you warnings when they are
not. The steering wheel mounted controls allow you to
scroll through and enter the main menus and submenus.
You can access the specific information you want and make
selections and adjustments.
Instrument Cluster Display Location And Controls
The Instrument Cluster Display is located in the center of
the instrument cluster.
The Main Menu items consists of the following:
• Speedometer
• Vehicle Info
• Driver Assist
• Hybrid Info
• Trip (Trip A/Trip B)
• Audio
• Messages
• Screen Setup
• Speed Warning — If Equipped
160 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

•Unless reset, this message will continue to display each
time the ignition is cycled to the ON/RUN position.
• To reset the oil change indicator after performing the
scheduled maintenance, refer to the following proce-
dure.
Without pressing the brake pedal, push the ENGINE
START/STOP button and place the ignition in the ON/
RUN position (do not start the vehicle.)
1. Push the OKbutton to enter the instrument cluster
display menu screen.
2. Push and release the downarrow button to access the
”Oil Life” menu screen.
3. Push the leftarrow button or right arrow button to
access the “Vehicle Info” submenu.
4. Hold the OKbutton to reset the “Oil Life” to 100%.
5. Push the uparrow button to exit the instrument cluster
display menu screen.
NOTE: If the indicator message illuminates when you
start the vehicle, the oil change indicator system did not
reset. If necessary, repeat this procedure.Fuel And Oil Refresh Mode
Since it is possible to operate this vehicle for extended
periods of time without running the gas engine, the fuel
within the vehicle’s fuel tank can become stale. To prevent
engine and/or fuel system damage due to stale fuel, as
well as, maintaining internal engine lubrication, this ve-
hicle is equipped with a “Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode”.
The vehicle will automatically enter into the Fuel and Oil
Refresh Mode to minimize potential for stale fuel, and to
ensure lubrication of internal engine components. When
operating in this mode, the gas engine will run to provide
vehicle propulsion (electric only operation is inhibited). A
message will be displayed in the instrument cluster when-
ever Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode is active.
The vehicle will automatically exit the Fuel and Oil Refresh
Mode when conditions have been satisfied. If the vehicle
enters Fuel and Oil Refresh Mode, due to fuel which has
been in the fuel tank for a long period of time (becoming
stale fuel), the engine will run whenever the vehicle is
operational (no electric only operation) until the low fuel
level warning is activated. It is possible to exit the Fuel and
Oil Refresh Mode sooner by adding new fuel to the
vehicle’s fuel tank.

NOTE:Fuel Freshness is recalculated whenever fuel is
added to the vehicle’s fuel tank.
