your vehicle. Voice Command will not work to
adjust the heated seats or steering wheel if
equipped.
OPERATING TIPS
NOTE:Refer to the chart at the end of this section for
suggested control settings for various weather
conditions.
Summer Operation
The engine cooling system must be protected with
a high-quality antifreeze coolant to provide proper
corrosion protection and to protect against engine
overheating. OAT coolant (conforming to
MS.90032) is recommended Ú page 382.
Winter Operation
To ensure the best possible heater and defroster
performance, make sure the engine cooling
system is functioning properly and the proper
amount, type, and concentration of coolant is
used. Use of the Air Recirculation mode during
Winter months is not recommended, because it
may cause window fogging.
Vacation/Storage
For information on maintaining the Climate Control
system when the vehicle is being stored for an
extended period of time, see Úpage 373.
Window Fogging
Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in mild,
rainy, and/or humid weather. To clear the
windows, select Defrost or Mix mode and increase
the front blower speed. Do not use the
Recirculation mode without A/C (Air Conditioning)
for long periods, as fogging may occur.
Outside Air Intake
Make sure the air intake, located directly in front of
the windshield, is free of obstructions such as
leaves. Leaves collected in the air intake may
reduce airflow, and if they enter the plenum, they
could plug the water drains. In Winter months,
make sure the air intake is clear of ice, slush, and
snow.
Cabin Air Filter
The Climate Control system filters out dust and
pollen from the air. Contact an authorized dealer to
service your cabin air filter, and to have it replaced
when needed

92GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Your vehicle may be equipped with a 15W 3A Qi
wireless charging pad located inside of the storage
area below the climate controls. This charging pad
is designed to wirelessly charge your Qi enabled
mobile phone. Qi is a standard that allows wireless
charging of your mobile phone.
Your mobile phone must be designed for Qi
wireless charging. If the phone is not equipped
with Qi wireless charging functionality, an
aftermarket sleeve or a specialized back plate can
be purchased from your mobile phone provider or
a local electronics retailer. Please see your
phone’s Owner’s Manual for further information.
The wireless charging pad is equipped with an
anti-slip mat to hold your mobile phone in place,
and an LED indicator light.
LED Indicator Status:
No Light: Charging pad is idle or searching for a
device.
Blue Light: Device is detected and is charging.
Red Light/Flashing: Internal error or foreign
object is detected.
NOTE:
All vehicle doors must be closed for the wireless
charging pad to operate.
Using a phone case may interfere with wireless
charging.
CIGAR LIGHTER — IF EQUIPPED
NOTE:Cigar lighters can be purchased at an authorized
dealer through Mopar® parts.
The cigar lighter is located at the bottom of the
instrument panel. Push lighter inward to heat.
After a few seconds, the lighter automatically
returns to its initial position and is ready to be
used.
SMOKER'S PACKAGE KIT — IF EQUIPPED
With the optional authorized dealer-installed
Smoker's Package Kit, a removable ash receiver is
inserted into one of the two cupholders in the
center floor console. To install the ash receiver,
align the receiver so the thumb grip on the lid is
facing rearward. Push the ash receiver into either
of the cup wells to secure. Pull upward on the ash
receiver to remove for cleaning and/or storage.
The left rear trim panel cupholder is designed to
accommodate a second ash receiver, if desired.
CAUTION!
The key fob should not be placed on the
charging pad or within 6 in (15 cm) of it. Doing
so can cause excessive heat buildup and
damage to the fob. Placing the fob in close
proximity of the charging pad blocks the fob from
being detected by the vehicle and prevents the
vehicle from starting.
WARNING!
When the cigar lighter is in use it becomes very
hot. To avoid serious injury, handle the cigar
lighter with care. Always check that the cigar
lighter has turned off.
CAUTION!
Do not connect devices with power higher than
180 Watts (15 Amps) to the socket. Do not
damage the socket by using unsuitable
adaptors. If the 180 Watt (15 Amp) power rating
is exceeded the fuse protecting the system will
need to be replaced.

Stow ‘n Vac Integrated Vacuum —
If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with an integrated
vacuum system. This vacuum is for in-vehicle use
only and should only be used on dry materials and on in-vehicle surfaces. It is located in the rear trim
panel behind the sliding door on the driver’s side of
the vehicle.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using. When using
your vacuum, basic precautions should be
followed, including the following:
WARNING!
Driving with the liftgate open can allow
poisonous exhaust gases into your vehicle.
You and your passengers could be injured by
these fumes. Keep the liftgate closed when
you are operating the vehicle.
If you are required to drive with the liftgate
open, make sure that all windows are closed,
and the climate control blower switch is set at

WARNING!
During power operation, personal injury or cargo
damage may occur. Ensure the liftgate travel
path is clear. Make sure the liftgate is closed
and latched before driving away.
WARNING!
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing chil
-
dren to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fatally injured.
Children should be warned not to touch the
parking brake, brake pedal or the gear
selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle,
or in a location accessible to children, and do
not leave the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition in
either ACC or ON/RUN (engine running) posi -
tion unless you are using the vacuum system.
Be aware a child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle
when the vacuum system is in use. ALWAYS
