WHEEL AND TIRE TORQUE
SPECIFICATIONS
Proper lug nut/bolt torque is very important to
ensure that the wheel is properly mounted to
the vehicle. Any time a wheel has been re-
moved and reinstalled on the vehicle, the lug
nuts/bolts should be torqued using a properly
calibrated torque wrench using a high quality
six sided (hex) deep wall socket.

**Use only your authorized dealer recom-
mended lug nuts/bolts and clean or remove
any dirt or oil before tightening.
Inspect the wheel mounting surface prior to
mounting the tire and remove any corrosion
or loose particles.Tighten the lug nuts/bolts in a star pattern
until each nut/bolt has been tightened twice.
Ensure that the socket is fully engaged on the
lug nut/bolt (do not insert it halfway).
NOTE:
If in doubt about the correct tightness, have
them checked with a torque wrench by your
authorized dealer or service station.After 25 miles (40 km), check the lug nut/
bolt torque to be sure that all the lug nuts/
bolts are properly seated against the wheel.
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off
the jack, do not tighten the lug nuts fully
until the vehicle has been lowered. Failure
to follow this warning may result in per-
sonal injury.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS —
GASOLINE ENGINE
1.4L Turbo Gasoline Engine
This engine is designed to meet all emission
regulations and provide satisfactory fuel
economy and performance when using high-
quality unleaded gasoline having a minimum
research octane rating (RON) of 95. For op-
timum performance and fuel economy the
use of minimum research octane rating
(RON) of 98 or higher is recommended.

Carbon Monoxide Warnings
WARNING!
Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases is
deadly. Follow the precautions below to
prevent carbon monoxide poisoning:
• Do not inhale exhaust gases. They con-
tain carbon monoxide, a colorless and
odorless gas, which can kill. Never run
the engine in a closed area, such as a
garage, and never sit in a parked vehicle
with the engine running for an extended
period. If the vehicle is stopped in an
open area with the engine running for
more than a short period, adjust the
ventilation system to force fresh, outside
air into the vehicle.
• Guard against carbon monoxide with
proper maintenance. Have the exhaust
system inspected every time the vehicle
is raised. Have any abnormal conditions
repaired promptly. Until repaired, drive
with all side windows fully open.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS —
DIESEL ENGINE
Diesel Engine
Use good quality diesel fuel from a reputable
supplier. If the outside temperature is very
low, the diesel fuel thickens due to the for-
mation of paraffin clots with consequent de-
fective operation of the fuel supply system.
In order to avoid these problems different
types of fuel are distributed according to the
season: summer type, winter type and arctic
type (cold/mountain areas). If fueling with
diesel fuel whose features are not suitable for
the temperature of use, it is advisable to mix
in a suitable additive with the fuel. With the
proportions shown on the container, pour the
additive in the tank before fueling.
When using or parking the vehicle for a long
time in the mountains or cold areas, it is
advisable to refuel using locally available
fuel. In this case, it is also advisable to keep
the tank over half full.This vehicle must only use premium diesel
fuel that meets the requirements of EN 590.
Biodiesel blends up to 7% that meet EN
590 may also be used.WARNING!
Do not use alcohol or gasoline as a fuel-
blending agent. They can be unstable un-
der certain conditions and hazardous or
explosive when mixed with diesel fuel.
Diesel fuel is seldom completely free of wa-
ter. To prevent fuel system trouble, drain the
accumulated water from the fuel/water sepa-
rator using the provided fuel/water separator
drain. If you buy good quality fuel and follow
the cold weather advice above, fuel condi-
tioners should not be required in your vehicle.
If available in your area, a high cetane “pre-
mium” diesel fuel may offer improved cold-
starting and warm-up performance.

CYBERSECURITY
Your vehicle may be a connected vehicle and
may be equipped with both wired and wire-
less networks. These networks allow your ve-
hicle to send and receive information. This
information allows systems and features in
your vehicle to function properly.
Your vehicle may be equipped with certain
security features to reduce the risk of unau-
thorized and unlawful access to vehicle sys-
tems and wireless communications. Vehicle
software technology continues to evolve over
time and FCA, working with its suppliers,
evaluates and takes appropriate steps as
needed. Similar to a computer or other de-
vices, your vehicle may require software up-
dates to improve the usability and perfor-
mance of your systems or to reduce the
potential risk of unauthorized and unlawful
access to your vehicle systems.
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 vehi-
cle’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 soft-
ware, and if installed in your vehicle, 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 authorized dealer immedi-
ately.
NOTE:
• FCA or your dealer may contact you directly
regarding software updates.• To help further improve vehicle security and
minimize the potential risk of a security
breach, vehicle owners should:
– Routinely check
www.driveuconnect.com/support/
software-update.html 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 communi-
cations cannot be assured. Third parties may
unlawfully intercept information and private
communications without your consent. For
further information, refer to “Data Collection
& Privacy” in “Onboard Diagnostic System
(OBD II) Cybersecurity” in “Getting To Know
Your Instrument Panel” in your Owner’s
Manual ).
