2. Open the fuel filler door by pushing on the
rear edge of the Fuel Door.
3. There is no fuel filler cap. A flapper door
inside the pipe seals the system.
4. Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler
pipe; the nozzle opens and holds the flap-
per door while refueling.5. Fill the vehicle with fuel, and when the
fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the fuel
tank is full.
6. Wait ten seconds before removing the fuel
nozzle to allow fuel to drain from nozzle.
7. Remove the fuel nozzle and close the fuel
door.Emergency Gas Can Refueling
Most gas cans will not open the flapper door.
A funnel is provided to open the flapper door
to allow emergency refueling with a gas can.
1. Retrieve funnel from the rear cargo area.
2. Insert funnel into same filler pipe opening
as the fuel nozzle.
3. Ensure funnel is inserted fully to hold
flapper door open.
4. Pour fuel into funnel opening.

NOTE:
• When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off,
the fuel tank is full.
WARNING!
• Never have any smoking materials lit in
or near the vehicle when the fuel door is
open or the tank is being filled.
• Never add fuel when the engine is run-
ning. This is in violation of most coun-

tries regulations and may cause the
“Malfunction Indicator Light” to turn
on.
• Do not apply any object/cap to the end of
the filler which is not provided for the
car. The use of non-compliant objects/
plugs could cause a pressure increase
inside the tank, resulting in dangerous
situations.
• A fire may result if fuel is pumped into a
portable container that is inside of a
vehicle. You could be burned. Always
place fuel containers on the ground
while filling.
AdBlue (UREA) — If Equipped
Your vehicle is equipped with a Selective
Catalytic Reduction system to meet the very
stringent diesel emissions standards re-
quired by the European Community legisla-
tion.
The purpose of the SCR system is to reduce
levels of NOx (oxides of nitrogen emitted from
engines) that are harmful to our health and
the environment to a near-zero level. A small

CAUTION!
• Never add anything other than AdBlue
(UREA) to the tank – especially any form
of hydrocarbon such as diesel fuel, fuel
system additives, gasoline, or any other
petroleum-based product. Even a very
small amount of these, less than
100 parts per million or less than 1 oz.
(30 ml) per 78 gallons (295 liters) will
contaminate the entire AdBlue (UREA)
system and will require replacement. If
owners use a container, funnel or nozzle
when refilling the tank, it should either
be new or one that is has only been used
for adding AdBlue (UREA). Mopar pro-
vides an attachable nozzle with its Ad-
Blue (UREA) for this purpose.3. Stop filling the AdBlue (UREA) tank im-
mediately when any of the following hap-
pen: AdBlue (UREA) splashes out the fill
inlet, or a AdBlue (UREA) pump nozzle
automatically shuts off.
4. After removing the nozzle, refit the cap on
the AdBlue (UREA) filler by turning it
clockwise until it is fully tightened. Cycle
the ignition to the ACC position (no need
to start the engine).
5. Wait for the warning on the instrument
panel to switch off before moving the
vehicle, the warning light may stay on for
a few seconds to half a minute. In case of
engine start-up and movement of the ve-
hicle, the warning light will remain on for
a longer period of time, but there are no
problems on the engine functionality. If
topping up is done with the AdBlue
(UREA) tank empty, you have to wait two
minutes before starting the vehicle.When Refueling The Additive For Diesel Emis-
sions AdBlue (UREA) With Bottle:
• Park the vehicle on level ground.
• Turn off the engine by cycling the ignition to
the OFF position.
• Open the fuel filler and then unscrew and
remove the cap from the AdBlue (UREA)
filler.
• Press the bottom of the bottle towards the
filler to release the bottle's safety valve and
start topping up; if the level of AdBlue
(UREA) in the bottle.
• Stop filling the AdBlue (UREA) tank imme-
diately when any of the following happen:
AdBlue (UREA) stops flowing from the fill
bottle into the AdBlue (UREA) fill inlet,
AdBlue (UREA) splashes out the fill inlet.
• If the level of AdBlue (UREA) in the bottle
does not drop while topping up, it means
that you have filled the reservoir, so pull the
bottle towards you to re-close the bottle's
safety valve and unscrew the bottle from
the filler.
