the event of a rear impact. Head restraints
should be adjusted so that the top of the head
restraint is located above the top of your ear.
WARNING!
• All occupants, including the driver,
should not operate a vehicle or sit in a
vehicle’s seat until the head restraints
are placed in their proper positions in
order to minimize the risk of neck injury
in the event of a crash.
• Head restraints should never be ad-
justed while the vehicle is in motion.
Driving a vehicle with the head restraints
improperly adjusted or removed could
cause serious injury or death in the event
of a collision.

System Maintenance
In winter, the climate control system must be
turned on at least once a month for about ten
minutes.
Have the system inspected at an authorized
dealer before the summer.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause
damage to the heating elements:
• Use care when washing the inside of the rear window. Do not use abrasive
window cleaners on the interior surface

of the window. Use a soft cloth and a
mild washing solution, wiping parallel
to the heating elements. Labels can be
peeled off after soaking with warm
water.
• Do not use scrapers, sharp instru-
ments, or abrasive window cleaners on
the interior surface of the window.
• Keep all objects a safe distance from
the window.
Climate Control Functions
A/C (Air Conditioning)

NOTE:
• If fog or mist appears on the windshield orside glass, select Defrost mode and in-
crease blower speed if needed.
• If your air conditioning performance seems lower than expected, check the front of the
A/C condenser (located in front of the ra-
diator), for an accumulation of dirt or in-
sects. Clean with a gentle water spray from
the front of the radiator and through the
condenser.
Recirculation
When outside air contains smoke, odors, or
high humidity, or if rapid cooling is desired,
you may wish to recirculate interior air by
pressing the Recirculation control button.
The recirculation indicator will illuminate
when this button is selected. Press the but-
ton a second time to turn off the Recircula-
tion mode and allow outside air into the
vehicle. NOTE:
In cold weather, use of recirculation mode
may lead to excessive window fogging. On
systems with Manual Climate Controls, the
Recirculation mode is not allowed in Defrost
mode to improve window clearing operation.
Recirculation will be disabled automatically
if this mode is selected. Attempting to use
Recirculation while in this mode will cause
the LED in the control button to blink and
then turn off.
Operating Tips
Summer Operation
The engine cooling system must be protected
with a high-quality antifreeze coolant to pro-
vide proper corrosion protection and to pro-
tect against engine overheating. OAT coolant
(conforming to MS.90032) is recommended.
Refer to “Dealer Service” in “Servicing And
Maintenance” in your Owner’s Manual at
www.mopar.com/en-us/care/owners-manual.html
(U.S. Residents) or www.owners.mopar.ca
(Canadian Residents) for proper coolant se-
lection.
Winter Operation
To ensure the best possible heater and de-
froster performance, make sure the engine
cooling system is functioning properly and
the proper amount, type, and concentration
of coolant is used. Refer to “Dealer Service”
in “Servicing And Maintenance” in your Own-
er’s Manual at
www.mopar.com/en-us/
care/owners-manual.html
(U.S. Residents) or
www.owners.mopar.ca (Canadian Residents)
for proper coolant selection. Use of the air
Recirculation mode during Winter months is
not recommended because it may cause win-
dow fogging.
Vacation/Storage
Any time you store your vehicle or keep it out
of service (i.e., vacation) for two weeks or
more, run the air conditioning system at idle
for about five minutes in fresh air with the
blower setting on high. This will ensure ad-
equate system lubrication to minimize the
possibility of compressor damage when the
system is started again.
