Automatic Mode
The Stop/Start feature is enabled after every
normal customer engine start. It will remain
in STOP/START NOT READY until you drive
forward with a vehicle speed greater than
4 mph (7 km/h). At that time, the system will
go into STOP/START READY and if all other
conditions are met, can go into a STOP/
START AUTOSTOP ACTIVE “Autostop”
mode.
To Activate The Autostop Mode, The Following
Must Occur:
• The system must be in STOP/START
READY state. A STOP/START READY mes-
sage will be displayed in the instrument
cluster display within the Stop/Start sec-
tion. Refer to “Instrument Cluster Display”
in “Getting To Know Your Instrument
Panel” in your Owner’s information for fur-
ther details.
• The vehicle must be completely stopped.
• The gear selector must be in DRIVE and the
brake pedal depressed (automatic trans-
mission) or the gear selector must be in
NEUTRAL and the clutch pedal must be
fully released (manual transmission).The engine will shut down, the tachometer
will move to the zero position and the Stop/
Start telltale will illuminate indicating you
are in Autostop. While in Autostop, the Cli-
mate Controls system may automatically ad-
just airflow to maintain cabin comfort. Cus-
tomer settings will be maintained upon return
to an engine running condition.
Possible Reasons The Engine Does Not
Autostop
Prior to engine shut down, the system will
check many safety and comfort conditions to
see if they are fulfilled. Detailed information
about the operation of the Stop/Start system
may be viewed in the instrument cluster
Stop/Start Screen. In the following situations
the engine will not stop:
• Driver’s seat belt is not buckled.
• Driver’s door is not closed.
• Battery temperature is too warm or cold.
• The vehicle is on a steep grade.
• Cabin heating or cooling is in process and
an acceptable cabin temperature has not
been achieved.• HVAC is set to full defrost mode at a high
blower speed.
• Engine has not reached normal operating
temperature.
• Battery charge is low.
• The transmission is not in DRIVE (auto-
matic transmission) or NEUTRAL (manual
transmission).
• Hood is open.
• Vehicle is in 4LO transfer case mode.
• Exhaust system regeneration in process.
Other Factors Which Can Inhibit Autostop In-
clude:
• Fuel level.
• Accelerator pedal input (automatic trans-
mission only).
• Engine temperature too high.
It may be possible for the vehicle to be driven
several times without the STOP/START sys-
tem going into a STOP/START READY state
under more extreme conditions of the items
listed above.

To Start The Engine While In Autostop
Mode
Automatic Transmission:
While in DRIVE, the engine will start when
the brake pedal is released or the throttle
pedal is depressed. The transmission will
automatically re-engage upon engine restart.
During this transition, the brakes will hold
the vehicle to avoid undesired vehicle move-
ment.
Manual Transmission:
When the gear selector is in NEUTRAL, the
engine will start when the clutch pedal is
pressed. The vehicle will go into STOP/
START SYSTEM NOT READY mode until the
vehicle speed is greater than 4 mph (7 km/h).
Conditions That Will Cause The Engine To Start
Automatically While In Autostop Mode:
• The transmission gear selector is moved
from DRIVE to REVERSE or NEUTRAL.
• To maintain cabin temperature comfort.
• HVAC is set to full defrost mode.
• Battery voltage drops too low.• Low brake vacuum (e.g. after several brake
pedal applications).
• STOP/START OFF switch is pushed.
• 4WD system is put into 4LO mode.
• The emissions system requires it.
• A STOP/START system error occurs.
• HVAC system temperature or fan speed is
manually adjusted.
Conditions That Force An Application Of The
Electric Park Brake While In Autostop Mode:
• The driver door is open and brake pedal
released.
• The driver door is open and the driver seat
belt is unbuckled.
• The engine hood has been opened.
• A STOP/START system error occurs.
If the Electric Park Brake is applied with the
engine off, the engine may require a manual
restart and the electric park brake may re-
quire a manual release (depress brake pedal
and push Electric Park Brake switch). Referto “Instrument Cluster Display” in “Getting
To Know Your Instrument Panel” in your Own-
er’s Manual for further information.To Manually Turn Off The Stop/Start
System
1. Push the STOP/START Off switch (located
on the switch bank). The light on the
switch will illuminate.

The manufacturer recommends that these
maintenance intervals be performed at your
selling dealer. The technicians at your deal-
ership know your vehicle best, and have ac-
cess to factory trained information, genuine
Mopar parts, and specially designed elec-
tronic and mechanical tools that can help
prevent future costly repairs.
NOTE:
•The actual interval for changing engine oil
and replacing the engine oil filter depends on
the vehicle usage conditions, and is signaled
by the warning light or message in the instru-
ment cluster. In any case, it must never ex-
ceed two years. If the vehicle is used mainly
for city driving, change the engine oil and
filter every year.
•Flush and replace the engine coolant at
120 months or 150,000 miles (240,000 km)
whichever comes first.
•The timing and accessory belts must be
changed every 37,500 miles (60,000 km) or
3 years for particularly demanding use (dusty
areas, severe weather conditions, very low orvery high temperatures for extended periods,
city driving, long periods of idling). Under no
circumstances should these intervals be
exceeded.
Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip
• Check engine oil level.
• Check windshield washer fluid level.
• Check tire pressure and look for unusual
wear or damage. Rotate tires at the first
sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs
before the oil indicator system turns on.
• Check the fluid levels of the coolant reser-
voir and brake master cylinder, fill as
needed.
• Check function of all interior and exterior
lights.
• Control and recovery of additive level for
AdBlue Diesel emissions (UREA) (if
equipped)
At Each Oil Change
• Change the engine oil filter.
• Inspect the brake hoses and lines.• Inspect for the presence of water in the fuel
filter/water separator unit.
Demanding Vehicle Use
• Restore additive level for AdBlue Diesel
emissions (UREA) (if equipped), when the
lamp is illuminated or the message on the
instrument panel.
CAUTION!
Failure to perform the required mainte-
nance items may result in damage to the
vehicle.
Maintenance Plan — Diesel Engine
NOTE:
Once you have carried out the last interven-
tion in the table, continue with the scheduled
servicing, maintaining the frequency indi-
cated in the plan by marking each operation
with a dot or dedicated note. Simply restart-
ing the maintenance from the start of the
plan may cause the allowed interval to be
exceeded for some operations.
