ACEA C2.
NOTE:
• If lubricants compliant with the required specifications are not avail-
able, products that comply with the minimum required characteris-
tics can be used for topping off; in this case optimal performance of
the engine is not guaranteed.
• The use of products with specifications other than those indicated
above could cause damage to the engine not covered by the warranty.

CAUTION!
• Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze)
other than specified Organic Additive
Technology (OAT) engine coolant (anti-
freeze), may result in engine damage
and may decrease corrosion protection.
Organic Additive Technology (OAT) en-
gine coolant is different and should not
be mixed with Hybrid Organic Additive
Technology (HOAT) engine coolant (an-
tifreeze) or any “globally compatible”
coolant (antifreeze). If a non-OAT engine
coolant (antifreeze) is introduced into
the cooling system in an emergency, the
cooling system will need to be drained,
flushed, and refilled with fresh OAT
coolant (conforming to MS.90032), by
an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
CAUTION!
• Do not use water alone or alcohol-based
engine coolant (antifreeze) products. Do
not use additional rust inhibitors or an-
tirust products, as they may not be com-
patible with the radiator engine coolant
and may plug the radiator.
• This vehicle has not been designed for
use with propylene glycol-based engine
coolant (antifreeze). Use of propylene
glycol-based engine coolant (antifreeze)
is not recommended.
• The use of products with different speci-
fications than those indicated above
could cause damage to the engine that
is not covered by the warranty.
• Use AdBlue only according to DIN
70 070 and ISO 22241-1. Other fluids
CAUTION!
may cause damage to the system: also
exhaust emissions would no longer com-
ply with the law.
• The distribution companies are respon-
sible for the compliance of their prod-
uct. Observe the precautions of storage
and servicing, in order to preserve the
initial qualities. The manufacturer of the
vehicle does not recognize any guaran-
tee in case of malfunctions and damage
caused to the vehicle due to the use of
UREA (AdBlue) not in accordance with
regulations.

Chassis
Component Fluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Automatic Transmission – If Equipped We recommended you use TUTELA TRANSMISSION AS8 Fluid, or equivalent, meeting
requirement of FCA Material Standard 9.55550-AV5 or MS.90030-A5.
Failure to use the correct fluid may affect the function or performance of your transmission.
Manual Transmission – If Equipped We recommended you use TUTELA TRANSMISSION GEARFORCE Fluid, or equivalent,
meeting requirement of FCA Material Standard 9.55550-MZ6 or MS.90030-M1.
Brake Master Cylinder We recommend you use DOT 3, SAE J1703 brake fluid. If DOT 3 brake fluid is not
available then TUTELA TOP4/S, FMVSS no. 116 DOT 4, ISO 4925 SAE J1704, or
equivalent, is acceptable.
If using DOT 4 brake fluid change interval is time based only, regardless of mileage.
FUEL CONSUMPTION AND
CO
2EMISSIONS
The fuel consumption and CO2emission fig-
ures declared by the manufacturer are deter-
mined on the basis of the type-approval tests
laid down by the applicable standards in the
country where the vehicle is registered.
The type of route, traffic conditions, weather
conditions, driving style, general condition of
the vehicle, trim level/equipment/ accesso-
ries, use of the climate control system, ve-
hicle load, presence of roof racks and othersituations that adversely affect the aerody-
namics or wind resistance lead to different
fuel consumption values than those mea-
sured.
The fuel consumption will only become more
regular after driving the first 1,864 miles
(3000 km).
To find the specific fuel consumption and
CO
2emission figures for this vehicle, please
refer to the data in the Certificate of Confor-
mity, and the related documentation that
accompanies the vehicle.

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:
– 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 “Onboard Diag-
nostic System (OBD II) Cybersecurity” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” in
your Owner’s Manual.
