Seat Belt Buzzer

Only shows in the instrument cluster display if the seat belt
reminder was previously deactivated by an authorized dealer.

NOTE:
This is a one-time occurrence to enable the acoustic signal.
Exit Menu
This is the last function that closes the cycle of settings listed
in the menu screen.
1. Pushing the MENU button briefly will return the display
to the standard screen without storing.
2. Push the down arrow button to return to the first menu
item on the display.
TRIP COMPUTER
The Trip Computer is located in the instrument cluster. It
features a driver-interactive display (displays information
such as trip information, range, fuel consumption, average
speed, and travel time).
NOTE:
The Uconnect System also has a Trip Computer display and
menus to customize the information displayed in the cluster. For further information, refer to “Uconnect Settings” in
“Multimedia”.
Trip Button
The
TRIP button, located on the right steering column stalk,
can be used to display and to reset the previously described
values.
• A short button push displays the different values.
• A long button push resets the system and then starts a new trip.
New Trip
To reset:

• Push and hold the TRIP button to reset the system manually.

• When the “Trip distance” reaches 99999.9 miles or kilome -
ters or when the “Travel time” reaches 999.59 (999 hours
and 59 minutes), the system is reset automatically.
• Disconnecting/Reconnecting the battery resets the system.
NOTE:
If the reset operation occurs in the presence of the screens
concerning Trip A or Trip B, only the information associated
with Trip A or Trip B functions will be reset.

NOTE:
The range depends on several factors: driving style, type of
route (freeway, residential, mountain roads, etc.), conditions
of use of the vehicle (load, tire pressure, etc.). Trip planning
must take into account the above notes.
Travel Distance
This value shows the distance covered since the last reset.
Average Fuel Consumption
This value shows the approximate average consumption
since the last reset.
Current Fuel Consumption
This indicates the fuel consumption. The value is constantly
updated. The message “----” will appear on the display if the
vehicle is parked with the engine running.
Average Speed
This value shows the vehicle's average speed as a function of
the overall time elapsed since the last reset.
Travel Time
This value shows the time elapsed since the last reset.WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES

The warning/indicator lights will illuminate in the instrument
panel together with a dedicated message and/or acoustic signal
when applicable. These indications are indicative and precau-
tionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/
or alternative to the information contained in the Owner’s
Manual, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases.
Always refer to the information in this chapter in the event of a
failure indication. All active telltales will display first if appli -
cable. The system check menu may appear different based upon
equipment options and current vehicle status. Some telltales are
optional and may not appear.

Red Warning Lights
Air Bag Warning Light

This light will turn on for four to eight seconds as a bulb
check when the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN or
MAR/ON/RUN position. If the light is either not on
during startup, stays on, or turns on while driving, have the
system inspected at an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
This light will illuminate with a single chime when a fault with
the Air Bag Warning Light has been detected, it will stay on until
the fault is cleared. If the light comes on intermittently or
remains on while driving, have an authorized dealer service the
vehicle immediately.

Low Fuel Warning LightWhen the fuel level reaches approximately 2–3 gal
(9–11 L) this light will turn on, and remain on until
fuel is added.
Generic Warning Light The Generic Warning Light will illuminate if any of
the following conditions occur: Engine Oil Pressure
Sensor Failure, External Light Failure, Parking
Sensor Failure, Fuel Cut-Off Fail/Intervention, Generic
Failure on Trailer, or Air Bag telltale recovery.
The telltale will blink in case of an Air Bag Warning Light
Failure. Contact an authorized dealer immediately for
service.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Warning Light
The warning light switches on and a message is
displayed to indicate that the tire pressure is lower
than the recommended value and/or that slow pres -
sure loss is occurring. In these cases, optimal tire duration
and fuel consumption may not be guaranteed. Should one or more tires be in the condition mentioned
above, the display will show the indications corresponding
to each tire.
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be
checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation
pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. If your vehicle
has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should
determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped
with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that illumi
-
nates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your
tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the
low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the
CAUTION!
Do not continue driving with one or more flat tires as
handling may be compromised. Stop the vehicle,
avoiding sharp braking and steering. If a tire puncture
occurs, repair immediately using the dedicated tire
repair kit and contact an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 277
Fuel Economy
Underinflated tires will increase tire rolling resistance
resulting in higher fuel consumption.
Tread Wear
Improper cold tire inflation pressures can cause abnormal
wear patterns and reduced tread life, resulting in the need
for earlier tire replacement.
Ride Comfort And Vehicle Stability
Proper tire inflation contributes to a comfortable ride.
Over-inflation produces a jarring and uncomfortable ride.
Tire Inflation Pressures
The proper cold tire inflation pressure is listed on the driver's
side B-Pillar or rear edge of the driver's side door.
At least once a month:
• Check and adjust tire pressure with a good qualitypocket-type pressure gauge. Do not make a visual judge -
ment when determining proper inflation. Tires may look
properly inflated even when they are under-inflated.
• Inspect tires for signs of tire wear or visible damage. Inflation pressures specified on the placard are always “cold
tire inflation pressure”. Cold tire inflation pressure is
defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle has not been
driven for at least three hours, or driven less than 1 mile
(1.6 km) after sitting for a minimum of three hours. The cold
tire inflation pressure must not exceed the maximum infla
-
tion pressure molded into the tire sidewall.
Check tire pressures more often if subject to a wide range of
outdoor temperatures, as tire pressures vary with tempera -
ture changes.
Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per
12°F (7°C) of air temperature change. Keep this in mind
when checking tire pressure inside a garage, especially in the
Winter. CAUTION!
After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure, always
reinstall the valve stem cap. This will prevent moisture
and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could
damage the valve stem.
