vehicle security alarm is arming,
and then will flash slowly until the vehicle is
disarmed.
Yellow Warning Lights
Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Warning Light
This warning light monitors the
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS). The
light will turn on when the ignition is
placed in the ON/RUN or ACC/ON/RUN posi -
tion and may stay on for as long as four
seconds.
If the ABS light remains on or turns on while

Heavy Duty Use Of Vehicle
**** Change the engine oil and engine oil
filter at every 4500 miles (7,500 km) or
12 months if using your vehicle under any of
the following severe duty conditions:
Stop and go driving.
Driving in dusty conditions.
Short trips of less than 10 miles (16 km).
Trailer towing.
Taxi, police, or delivery service (commer-
cial service).
Off-road or desert operation.
Diesel Engines
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic
oil change indicator system. The oil change
indicator system will remind you that it is
time to take your vehicle in for engine oil
replacement.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil
change indicator message will illuminate.
This means that service is required for your
vehicle. Operating conditions such as
frequent short-trips, trailer tow, extremely
hot or cold ambient temperatures will influ -ence when the “Oil Change Required”
message is displayed. Severe Operating
Conditions can cause the change oil
message to illuminate as earlier than speci
-
fied. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as
possible, within the next 500 miles
(805 km).
To help you have the best driving experience
possible, the manufacturer has identified the
specific vehicle maintenance service inter -
vals that are required to keep your vehicle
operating properly and safely.
The manufacturer recommends that these
maintenance intervals be performed at your
selling dealer. The technicians at your deal -
ership know your vehicle best, and have
access to factory trained information,
genuine Mopar parts, and specially designed
electronic and mechanical tools that can
help prevent future costly repairs.
The maintenance intervals shown should be
performed as indicated in this section. NOTE:
The actual interval for changing engine oil
and replacing the engine oil filter depends
on the vehicle usage conditions, and is
signaled by the warning light or message in
the instrument panel. In any case, it must
never exceed 12,000 miles (20,000km) or 1
year.
Flush and replace the engine coolant at
120 months or 150,000 miles (240,000 km)
whichever comes first.
Areas that are not dusty: recommended
maximum distance 75,000 mi
(120,000 km). The belt must be replaced
every 6 years, regardless of distance trav-
elled. Dusty areas and/or heavy conditions
(severe weather conditions, very low or very
high temperatures for extended periods,
urban driving, long periods of idling): the
recommended maximum distance is
37,500 mi (60,000 km). The belt must be
replaced every 4 years, regardless of
distance travelled.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
230
(Continued)
Cooling System Pressure Cap
The cap must be fully tightened to prevent
loss of engine coolant (antifreeze), and to
ensure that engine coolant (antifreeze) will
return to the radiator from the coolant expan-
sion bottle/recovery tank if so equipped.
The cap should be inspected and cleaned if
there is any accumulation of foreign material
on the sealing surfaces.
Brake System
In order to assure brake system performance,
all brake system components should be
inspected periodically. Refer to the “Mainte -nance Plan” in this section for the proper
maintenance intervals.
Brake Master Cylinder
The fluid in the master cylinder should be
checked when performing under hood
services or immediately if the “Brake
Warning Light” is illuminated.
Be sure to clean the top of the master
cylinder area before removing the cap. If
necessary, add fluid to bring the fluid level
up to the requirements described on the
brake fluid reservoir. With disc brakes, fluid
level can be expected to fall as the brake
pads wear. Brake fluid level should be
checked when pads are replaced. However,
low fluid level may be caused by a leak and
a checkup may be needed.
Use only manufacturer's recommended
brake fluid. Refer to “Fluids And Lubricants”
in “Technical Specifications” for further
information.
WARNING!
Do not open hot engine cooling system.
Never add engine coolant (antifreeze)
when the engine is overheated. Do not
loosen or remove the cap to cool an over
-
heated engine. Heat causes pressure to
build up in the cooling system. To
prevent scalding or injury, do not remove
the pressure cap while the system is hot
or under pressure.
Do not use a pressure cap other than the
one specified for your vehicle. Personal
injury or engine damage may result.
WARNING!
Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure
and possibly a collision. Driving with your
foot resting or riding on the brake pedal
can result in abnormally high brake
temperatures, excessive lining wear, and
possible brake damage. You would not
have your full braking capacity in an
emergency. WARNING!
Use only manufacturer's recommended
brake fluid. Refer to “Fluids And Lubri -
cants” in “Technical Specifications” for
further information. Using the wrong
type of brake fluid can severely damage
your brake system and/or impair its
performance. The proper type of brake
fluid for your vehicle is also identified on
the original factory installed hydraulic
master cylinder reservoir.
To avoid contamination from foreign
matter or moisture, use only new brake
fluid or fluid that has been in a tightly
closed container. Keep the master
cylinder reservoir cap secured at all
times. Brake fluid in a open container
absorbs moisture from the air resulting
in a lower boiling point. This may cause
it to boil unexpectedly during hard or
prolonged braking, resulting in sudden
brake failure. This could result in a colli -
sion.
