WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Only devices designed for use in this
type of outlet should be inserted into any
12 Volt outlet.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use and while
driving the vehicle.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an
electric shock and failure.
CAUTION!
Do not exceed the maximum power of
160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the
160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating is
exceeded the fuse protecting the system
will need to be replaced.
Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not insert any other object in
the power outlets as this will damage the
outlet and blow the fuse. Improper use of
the power outlet can cause damage not
covered by your New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
Many accessories that can be plugged in
draw power from the vehicle's battery, even
when not in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.).
Eventually, if plugged in long enough, the
vehicle's battery will discharge sufficiently
to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
Accessories that draw higher power (i.e.,
coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.), will
degrade the battery even more quickly.
Only use these intermittently and with
greater caution.
After the use of high power draw accesso -
ries, or long periods of the vehicle not being
started (with accessories still plugged in),
the vehicle must be driven a sufficient
length of time to allow the alternator to
recharge the vehicle's battery.
Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not hang any type of acces -
sory or accessory bracket from the plug.
Improper use of the power outlet can cause
damage.

SAFETY101
Manual Transmission Vehicles
The BSM system sensors operate when the
vehicle is in any gear.

BSM Warning Light

The BSM detection zone covers approximately
one lane width on both sides of the vehicle 12 ft
(3.8 m). The zone length starts at the outside
rearview mirror and extends approximately
10 ft (3 m) beyond the rear bumper of the
vehicle. The BSM system monitors the
detection zones on both sides of the vehicle
when the vehicle speed reaches approximately
6 mph (10 km/h) or higher and will alert the
driver of vehicles in these areas. NOTE:
The BSM system DOES NOT alert the driver
about rapidly approaching vehicles that are
outside the detection zones.
The BSM system detection zone DOES NOT
change if your vehicle is towing a trailer.
Therefore, visually verify the adjacent lane is
clear for both your vehicle and trailer before
making a lane change. If the trailer or other
object (i.e., bicycle, sports equipment)
extends beyond the side of your vehicle, this
may result in the BSM warning light
remaining illuminated the entire time the
vehicle is in a forward gear.
The BSM system may experience drop outs
(blinking on and off) of the side mirror
Warning Indicator lamps when a motorcycle
or any small object remains at the side of the
vehicle for extended periods of time (more
than a couple of seconds).
The area on the rear fascia where the radar
sensors are located must remain free of snow,
ice and dirt/road contamination so that the
BSM system can function properly. Do not block
the area of the rear fascia where the radar
sensors are located with foreign objects
(bumper stickers, bicycle racks, etc.).
Sensor Location

The BSM system notifies the driver of objects in
the detection zones by illuminating the BSM
warning light located in the outside mirrors in
addition to sounding an audible (chime) alert
and reducing the radio volume. Refer to “Modes
Of Operation” for further information.
The BSM system monitors the detection zone
from three different entry points (side, rear,
front) while driving to see if an alert is
necessary. The BSM system will issue an alert
during these types of zone entries.

254SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
Engine Oil Viscosity (SAE Grade) — 5.7L
Engine
Mopar SAE 5W-20 engine oil approved to FCA
Material Standard MS-6395 such as Pennzoil,
Shell Helix Ultra or equivalent is recommended
for all operating temperatures. This engine oil
improves low temperature starting and vehicle
fuel economy.
The engine oil filler cap also shows the
recommended engine oil viscosity for your
engine. For information on engine oil filler cap
location, refer to the “Engine Compartment”
illustration in this section.
NOTE:
Vehicles equipped with a 5.7L engine must use
SAE 5W-20 oil. Failure to do so may result in
improper operation of the Fuel Saver Tech -
nology. Refer to “Fuel Saver Technology – If
Equipped” in “Starting And Operating” for
further information.
Lubricants which do not have both the engine
oil certification mark and the correct SAE
viscosity grade number should not be used.
Engine Oil Viscosity — 6.2L And 6.4L
Engine
Use Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 0W-40 engine or
equivalent Mopar oil meeting the FCA Material
Standard MS-12633 for use in all operating
temperatures.
The engine oil filler cap also shows the
recommended engine oil viscosity for your
engine. For information on engine oil filler cap
location, refer to “Engine Compartment” in this
section for further information.
Synthetic Engine Oils
You may use synthetic engine oils provided the
recommended oil quality requirements are met,
and the recommended maintenance intervals
for oil and filter changes are followed.
Synthetic engine oils which do not have both the
engine oil certification mark and the correct SAE
viscosity grade number should not be used.
Shaker Hood — If Equipped
Shaker Hood Oil Filler
For vehicles equipped with a “Shaker Hood”,
the upper scoop will need to be removed so that
oil can be properly added to the engine. To do this, you will need follow the procedure
below:

1. Remove the four nuts with the Shaker tool
located in glove compartment.

2. Lift off the upper scoop.
NOTE:
Be sure to clean off all debris around or inside
for the Shaker assembly.
3. Locate the oil fill cover in base assembly to expose the oil fill cap.
4. Remove oil fill cap to add oil.
5. Re-install Shaker assembly.
Shaker Hood Air Filter Cleaning

1. Remove the air filter from the intake and set the filter clamp a side.

2. Measure the length of the filter media.
3. Fill a bucket with warm clean water to the depth matching the filter media
measurement and add a mild household
detergent or air filter cleaning solution.
4. Without allowing the solution to flow back into the inside of the air filter, submerge the
filter media in to the water and let it soak for
ten minutes.
