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.

Remove The Bottle
NOTE:
For sealant bottle installation, follow these
steps reverse order.
Replacement sealant bottles are available at
authorized service centers.
JUMP STARTING
If your vehicle has a discharged battery it can be
jump started using a set of jumper cables and a
battery in another vehicle or by using a portable
battery booster pack. Jump starting can be
dangerous if done improperly so please follow the
procedures in this section carefully.
NOTE:When using a portable battery booster pack follow
the manufacturer’s operating instructions and
precautions.
PREPARATIONS FOR JUMP START
The battery in your vehicle is located on the left
side of the engine compartment.
Battery Location
NOTE:The positive battery post may be covered with a
protective cap. Lift up on the cap to gain access to
the positive battery post. Do not jump off fuses.
Only jump directly off positive post which has a
positive (+) symbol on or around the post.
Jump Starting Post Locations
See below steps to prepare for jump starting:
1. Apply the parking brake, shift the automatic transmission into PARK (P) and place the
ignition to OFF.
2. Turn off the heater, radio, and all electrical accessories.WARNING!
Do not attempt jump starting if the battery is
frozen. It could rupture or explode and cause
personal injury.
CAUTION!
Do not use a portable battery booster pack or
any other booster source with a system voltage
greater than 12 Volts or damage to the battery,
starter motor, alternator or electrical system may

346SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
Fluid Level Check
The fluid level is preset at the factory and does not
require adjustment under normal operating
conditions. Routine fluid level checks are not
required; therefore the transmission has no
dipstick. An authorized dealer can check your
transmission fluid level using special service tools.
If you notice fluid leakage or transmission
malfunction, visit an authorized dealer
immediately to have the transmission fluid level
checked. Operating the vehicle with an improper
fluid level can cause severe transmission damage.
Fluid And Filter Changes
Under normal operating conditions, the fluid
installed at the factory will provide satisfactory
lubrication for the life of the vehicle.
Routine fluid and filter changes are not required.
However, change the fluid and filter if the fluid
becomes contaminated (with water, etc.), or if the
transmission is disassembled for any reason.
Selection Of Lubricant
It is important to use the proper transmission fluid
to ensure optimum transmission performance and
life. Use only the manufacturer specified
transmission fluid Úpage 383. It is important to
maintain the transmission fluid at the correct level
using the recommended fluid.
NOTE:No chemical flushes should be used in any trans -
mission; only the approved lubricant should be
used.
FUSES
General Information
CAUTION!
If a transmission fluid leak occurs, visit an
authorized dealer immediately. Severe
transmission damage may occur. An authorized
dealer has the proper tools to adjust the fluid
level accurately.
CAUTION!
Using a transmission fluid other than the
manufacturer recommended fluid may cause
deterioration in transmission shift quality and/or
torque converter shudder Ú page 383.
WARNING!
When replacing a blown fuse, always use an
appropriate replacement fuse with the same
amp rating as the original fuse. Never replace
a fuse with another fuse of higher amp rating.
Never replace a blown fuse with metal wires or
any other material. Do not place a fuse inside
a circuit breaker cavity or vice versa. Failure to
use proper fuses may result in serious
personal injury, fire and/or property damage.
Before replacing a fuse, make sure that the
ignition is off and that all the other services
are switched off and/or disengaged.
If the replaced fuse blows again, contact an
authorized dealer.
If a general protection fuse for safety systems
(air bag system, braking system), power unit
systems (engine system, transmission
system) or steering system blows, contact an
authorized dealer.
21_RUP_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 346
SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE347
The fuses protect electrical systems against
excessive current.
When a device does not work, you must check
the fuse element inside the blade fuse for a
break/melt.
Also, please be aware that when using power
outlets for extended periods of time with the
engine off may result in vehicle battery discharge.
Blade Fuses
Underhood Fuses
The Power Distribution Center (PDC) is located in
the engine compartment near the battery. This
center contains cartridge fuses, mini-fuses,
micro-fuses, circuit breakers and relays. A label
that identifies each component is printed on the
inside of the cover.
Before any procedure is done on the PDC, make
sure engine is turned off.
Remove the cover by unlatching the two locks
located at each side of the PDC cover, avoid the
usage of screw drivers or any other tool to remove
the cover, since they may apply excessive force
and result in a broken/damaged part. After service is done, secure the cover with its two
locks.NOTE:The function and amperage of these fuses are
different, depending on vehicle trim level and
content.
