Headlight Switch
The headlight switch is located on
the right side of the instrument
panel. This switch controls the op-
eration of the headlights, parking lights, au-
tomatic headlights — if equipped, instru-
ment panel light dimming, ambient light
dimming — if equipped, interior lights, front
and rear fog lights — if equipped and head-
light leveling — if equipped.
From the O (off) position, rotating the head-
light switch counterclockwise to the first de-
tent will turn on the vehicle’s parking lights.
This feature will allow one side of the vehicle
parking lights to illuminate when the vehicle
is locked depending on the position of themultifunction lever. Rotate the headlight
switch clockwise from the O (off) position to
the first detent for headlight and instrument
panel light operation.
Daytime Running Lights (DRL) — If
Equipped
The Daytime Running Lights will turn on
when the engine is started and remain on
unless the headlamps are turned on, the
parking brake is applied, or the engine is shut
OFF.
NOTE:
If allowed by law in the country in which the
vehicle was purchased, the Daytime Running
Lights can be turned on and off using the
Uconnect System.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multime-
dia” in the Owner’s Manual for further infor-
mation.

Front And Rear Fog Lights — If Equipped
The fog light switches are built into the head-
light switch.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is only equipped with rear fog
lights, only a single button will be available in
the center of the headlight switch. Push once
to turn the rear fog lights on, and a second
time to turn them off.
To activate the front fog lights, push the
upper half of the headlight switch. To turn off
the front fog lights, push the upper half of the
headlight switch a second time.
NOTE:
To activate the front fog lights, the parking
lights or low beam headlights must first be
activated.
To activate the rear fog lights, push the
lower half of the headlight switch. To turn off
the rear fog lights, push the lower half of the
headlight switch a second time.NOTE:
To turn on the rear fog lights, the low beam
headlights or front fog lights must first be
active.
An indicator light in the instrument cluster
illuminates when the fog lights are turned on.
Turn Signals
Move the multifunction lever up or down and
the arrows on each side of the instrument
cluster display will flash to show proper op-
eration of the front and rear turn signal lights.
NOTE:
• If either light remains on and does not
flash, or there is a very fast flash rate, check
for a defective LED turn signal in the head-
lamp. Please see an authorized dealer for
service.
• When the Daytime Running Lights are on
and a turn signal is activated, the Daytime
Running Lamp will turn off on the side of
the vehicle in which the turn signal is
flashing. The Daytime Running Lamp will
turn back on when the turn signal is turned
off.
Automatic Headlight Leveling — HID
Headlights Only
This feature prevents the headlights from
interfering with the vision of oncoming driv-
ers. Headlight leveling automatically adjusts
the height of the headlight beam in reaction
to changes in vehicle pitch.
Battery Saver
To protect the life of your vehicle’s battery,
load shedding is provided for both the interior
and exterior lights.
If the ignition is OFF and any door is left ajar
for 10 minutes or the dimmer control is
rotated all the way up to the dome on position
for 10 minutes, the interior lights will auto-
matically turn off.
NOTE:
Battery saver mode is canceled if the ignition
is ON.
If the headlights remain on while the ignition
is cycled OFF, the exterior lights will auto-
matically turn off after eight minutes. If the

traveling, the BeltAlert warning sequence will
begin until the seat belts are buckled again.
The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert
is not active when the outboard front passen-
ger seat is unoccupied. BeltAlert may be
triggered when an animal or other items are
placed on the outboard front passenger seat
or when the seat is folded flat (if equipped). It
is recommended that pets be restrained in
the rear seat (if equipped) in pet harnesses or
pet carriers that are secured by seat belts,
and cargo is properly stowed.
Rear Seat BeltAlert
Rear Seat BeltAlert shows the driver whether
the seat belts in the rear seat are buckled or
unbuckled. When the ignition switch is in the
START or ON/RUN position, a Seat Belt Re-
minder Light turns on for each rear seat
position. If a seat belt is buckled, the Seat
Belt Reminder Light for that position will
illuminate solid green. If a seat belt is un-
buckled, the Seat Belt Reminder Light will
illuminate red. If a rear passenger unbuckles
a seat belt that was buckled at the start of the
trip, a single chime will sound and the Seat
Belt Reminder Light for that position willchange from solid green to blinking red. This
will alert the driver to stop the vehicle until
the rear passenger buckles the seat belt
again. After the driver and outboard front seat
passenger have buckled their seat belts all
Seat Belt Reminder Lights will turn off.
BeltAlert can be activated or deactivated by
an authorized dealer. FCA US LLC does not
recommend deactivating BeltAlert.
NOTE:
If BeltAlert has been deactivated, the Seat
Belt Reminder Light will turn on and remain
on until the driver and outboard front seat
passenger seat belts are buckled.
Lap/Shoulder Belts
All seating positions in your vehicle are
equipped with lap/shoulder belts.
The seat belt webbing retractor will lock only
during very sudden stops or collisions. This
feature allows the shoulder part of the seat
belt to move freely with you under normal
conditions. However, in a collision the seat
belt will lock and reduce your risk of striking
the inside of the vehicle or being thrown out
of the vehicle.
WARNING!
• Relying on the air bags alone could lead
to more severe injuries in a collision. The
air bags work with your seat belt to
restrain you properly. In some collisions,
the air bags won’t deploy at all. Always
wear your seat belt even though you have
air bags.
• In a collision, you and your passengers
can suffer much greater injuries if you
are not properly buckled up. You can
strike the interior of your vehicle or other
passengers, or you can be thrown out of
the vehicle. Always be sure you and
others in your vehicle are buckled up
properly.
• It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area,
inside or outside of a vehicle. In a colli-
sion, people riding in these areas are
more likely to be seriously injured or
killed.
• Do not allow people to ride in any area of
your vehicle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts.
101

However, if you haven’t healed significantly
within a few days, or if you have any blis-
tering, see your doctor immediately.
• As the air bags deflate, you may see some
smoke-like particles. The particles are a
normal by-product of the process that gen-
erates the non-toxic gas used for air bag
inflation. These airborne particles may irri-
tate the skin, eyes, nose, or throat. If you
have skin or eye irritation, rinse the area
with cool water. For nose or throat irritation,
move to fresh air. If the irritation continues,
see your doctor. If these particles settle on
your clothing, follow the garment manufac-
turer’s instructions for cleaning.
Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags
have deployed. If you are involved in another
collision, the air bags will not be in place to
protect you.
WARNING!
Deployed air bags and seat belt preten-
sioners cannot protect you in another col-
lision. Have the air bags, seat belt preten-
sioners, and the seat belt retractor
WARNING!
assemblies replaced by an authorized
dealer immediately. Also, have the Occu-
pant Restraint Controller System serviced
as well.
NOTE:
• Air bag covers may not be obvious in the
interior trim, but they will open during air
bag deployment.
• After any collision, the vehicle should be
taken to an authorized dealer immediately.
Enhanced Accident Response System
In the event of an impact, if the communica-
tion network remains intact, and the power
remains intact, depending on the nature of
the event, the ORC will determine whether to
have the Enhanced Accident Response Sys-
tem perform the following functions:
• Cut off fuel to the engine (If Equipped)
• Cut off battery power to the electric motor
(If Equipped)
• Flash hazard lights as long as the battery
has power• Turn on the interior lights, which remain on
as long as the battery has power or for 15
minutes from the intervention of the En-
hanced Accident Response System.
• Unlock the power door locks.
Your vehicle may also be designed to perform
any of these other functions in response to
the Enhanced Accident Response System:
• Turn off the Fuel Filter Heater, Turn off the
HVAC Blower Motor, Close the HVAC Circu-
lation Door
• Cut off battery power to the:
– Engine
– Electric Motor (if equipped)

CAUTION!
Failure to perform the required mainte-
nance items may result in damage to the
vehicle.Maintenance Plan — Gasoline 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.
219

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.
