INTERNAL EQUIPMENT
Electrical Power Outlets
The auxiliary 12 Volt (13 Amp) power outlets
can provide power for in-cab accessories de-
signed for use with the standard “cigar
lighter” plug. The 12 Volt power outlets and
USB Port (Charge Only) have a cap attached
to the outlet indicating “12V DC,” together
with either a key symbol, battery symbol, or
USB symbol. A key symbol indicates that the key must be
in the ON/RUN or ACC positions for the outlet
to provide power. The battery symbol indi-
cates that the outlet is connected to the
battery, and can provide power at all times.
NOTE:
To ensure proper operation, a Mopar knob
and element must be used.
CAUTION!
• Do not exceed the maximum power of
160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the
160 Watts (13 Amps) power rating is
exceeded, the fuse protecting the sys-
tem will need to be replaced.
• Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not insert any other object
in the power outlets as this will damage
the outlet and blow the fuse. Improper
use of the power outlet can cause dam-
age not covered by your New Vehicle
Limited Warranty. The auxiliary power outlets can be found in
the following locations:
• Lower left and lower right in the center of
the instrument panel – if equipped with a
column or a eight-speed electronic gear
selector.
• Inside the top storage tray.

an appropriate replacement fuse with
the same amp rating as the original fuse.
Never replace a fuse with another fuse of

higher amp rating. Never replace a
blown fuse with metal wires or any other
material. Do not place a fuse inside a
circuit breaker cavity or vice versa. Fail-
ure to use proper fuses may result in
serious personal injury, fire and/or prop-
erty damage.
• Before replacing a fuse, make sure that
the ignition is off and that all the other
services are switched off and/or disen-
gaged.
• If the replaced fuse blows again, contact
an authorized dealer.
• If a general protection fuse for safety
systems (air bag system, braking sys-
tem), power unit systems (engine sys-
tem, transmission system) or steering
WARNING!
system blows, contact an authorized
dealer.

CAUTION!
• When installing the power distribution
center cover, it is important to ensure
the cover is properly positioned and fully
latched. Failure to do so may allow water
to get into the power distribution center
and possibly result in an electrical sys-
tem failure.
• When replacing a blown fuse, it is impor-
tant to use only a fuse having the correct
amperage rating. The use of a fuse with
a rating other than indicated may result
in a dangerous electrical system over-
load. If a properly rated fuse continues
to blow, it indicates a problem in the
circuit that must be corrected.
JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING
Jack Location
The jack and jack tools are stored under the
front passenger seat.
Removal Of Jack And Tools
• To access the jack and jack tools you must
remove the plastic access cover, located on
the side of the seat. To remove the cover,
pull the front part of the cover (closest to
the front of the seat) toward you to release a
locking tab. Once the front of the cover is
loose, slide the cover toward the front of the
seat until it is free from the seat frame.
