PARKSENSE REAR PARK ASSIST — IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense system provides an audible indication of
the distance between the rear fascia/bumper and a de-
tected obstacle when backing up, e.g. during a parking
maneuver. Refer to “ParkSense Rear Park Assist System
Usage Precautions” for limitations of this system and
recommendations.
The ParkSense system is automatically activated when the
transmission is placed into REVERSE. As the distance from
an obstacle behind the vehicle decreases, the audible alert
becomes more frequent.
Interaction With Trailer Towing
The ParkSense system is automatically deactivated when a
trailer equipped by Mopar is hitched to the vehicle. The
system will be automatically activated as soon as the trailer
is removed. If it does not happen, turning the key ignition
switch to OFF and then to ON again would be needed. In
case of a non Mopar trailer hitches are mounted the sensor
deactivation cannot be guaranteed.
ParkSense Rear Park Assist Sensors
The four ParkSense sensors, located in the rear fascia/
bumper, monitor the area behind the vehicle that is within
the sensors’ field of view. The sensors can detect obstacles,in the horizontal direction, from approximately 12 inches
(30 cm) up to 55 inches (140 cm) from the center of the rear
fascia/bumper and up to 24 inches (60 cm) from the
corners of the rear fascia/bumper, depending on the loca-
tion, type and orientation of the obstacle.
If several obstacles are detected, the ParkSense system
indicates the nearest obstacle.
The minimum height of a detectable obstacle corresponds
to the maximum height of an obstacle that would clear the
underside of the vehicle during the parking maneuver.

If it’s necessary to keep the ball mount and hitch ball
assembly mounted for a long period, it is possible to filter
out the ball mount and hitch ball assembly presence in
sensor field of view. The filtering operation must be
performed only by an authorized dealer.
PARKVIEW REAR BACK UP CAMERA
Your vehicle is equipped with the ParkView Rear Back Up
Camera that allows you to see an on-screen image of the rear
surroundings of your vehicle whenever the gear selector is
put into REVERSE. The image will be displayed on the
touchscreen display along with a caution note to “check
entire surroundings” across the top of the screen. After five
seconds this note will disappear. The ParkView camera is
located on the rear of the vehicle above the rear license plate.
The Rear Back Up Camera can also be activated when the
vehicle is not in REVERSE through the Uconnect System.
Refer to “Uconnect 3/3 NAV With 5-inch Display” supple-
ment for further information.NOTE:
If one of the rear cargo doors is not completely
closed, the Back Up Camera cannot provide an accurate
image of the area behind the vehicle. A dedicated message
will appear on the Uconnect display indicating the camera
is not in the correct position.
The Camera Delay setting can be set to on/off in the rear
camera settings menu. When the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE and the Camera Delay is turned off, the rear
camera mode is exited and the navigation or audio screen
appears on display again.
When the transmission is shifted out of REVERSE, and
Camera Delay is activated in the menu screen, the camera
image will continue to be displayed for up to 10 seconds,
unless the speed of the vehicle is greater than 8 mph (13
km/h), the transmission is in PARK, or the ignition key is in
the OFF position.
The display of the camera image can be enabled or
disabled through the rear camera setting menu item (Cam-
era on/off).

4. Disconnect the opposite end of the positive(+)jumper
cable from the positive (+)post of the vehicle with the
discharged battery.
If frequent jump-starting is required to start your vehicle
you should have the battery and charging system in-
spected at an authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
Accessories plugged into the vehicle power outlets
draw power from the vehicle’s battery, even when not
in use (i.e., cellular devices, etc.). Eventually, if plugged
in long enough without engine operation, the vehicle’s
battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade battery
life and/or prevent the engine from starting.
IGNITION KEY REMOVAL OVERRIDE
This vehicle is equipped with a Key Ignition Park Interlock
which requires the transmission to be in PARK before the
ignition switch can be turned to the LOCK/OFF (key
removal) position. To remove the key manually, proceed as
follows:
1. Firmly apply the parking brake. 2. Remove the Allen Key located in the rear cargo area, in
the tool bag (if equipped) or on the left side in the cargo
box.
3. Unlock the steering column, pull the tilt/telescoping control handle down.
4. Pull the steering wheel outward until it is in the end of the travel position, then lock the steering column in

proceed in performing the reinstall procedure special
attention must be paid to the correct coupling of the
clips. Otherwise damage to the cover or noise might be
heard due to incorrect fastening of the lower cover.

TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE
This section describes procedures for towing a disabled
vehicle using a commercial towing service.
Towing ConditionWheel OFF The Ground ALL MODELS
Flat Tow NONENOT ALLOWED
Wheel Lift Or Dolly Tow FrontOK
Rear NOT ALLOWED
Flatbed ALLBEST METHOD
Proper towing or lifting equipment is required to prevent
damage to your vehicle. Use only tow bars and other
equipment designed for this purpose, following equipment
manufacturer ’s instructions. Use of safety chains is man-
datory. Attach a tow bar or other towing device to main
structural members of the vehicle, not to bumpers or
associated brackets. State and local laws regarding vehicles
under tow must be observed.
If you must use the accessories (wipers, defrosters, etc.)
while being towed, the ignition must be in the ON/RUN
mode.
If the ignition key is unavailable, or the vehicle’s battery is
discharged, refer to “Gear Selector Override” in this section for instructions on shifting the transmission out of PARK
for towing.
CAUTION!
•
Do not use sling type equipment when towing.
Vehicle damage may occur.
• When securing the vehicle to a flat bed truck, do not
attach to front or rear suspension components. Dam-
age to your vehicle may result from improper towing.
The manufacturer recommends towing your vehicle with
all four wheels OFF the ground using a flatbed.
