NOTE:
The doors have to be open and then closed in
order for the vehicle to check for the presence
of a key fob; the Key Left Vehicle feature will
not activate until all of the doors are all closed.
These alerts will not be activated in situations
where the vehicle’s engine is left running with
the key fob inside.
Replacing The Battery In The Key Fob
The recommended replacement battery is one
CR2032 battery.
NOTE:
Customers are recommended to use a battery
obtained from Mopar®. Aftermarket coin
battery dimensions may not meet the original
OEM coin battery dimensions.
Perchlorate Material — special handling may
apply. See
www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/
perchlorate
for further information.
Do not touch the battery terminals that are on
the back housing or the printed circuit board.
To replace the battery, proceed as follows:
1. Push the sides of the key fob inward and extract the cover pulling downwards. Key Fob Cover Removal
2. Remove the emergency key from its housing.

3. Remove the battery plug by rotating it counter clockwise. Removing Battery Plug
4. Remove the battery from its slot and replace it with a new one. When replacing the battery,
match the (+) sign on the battery to the (+)
sign on the inside of the battery clip, located
on the back cover. Avoid touching the new
battery with your fingers. Skin oils may cause
battery deterioration. If you touch a battery,
clean it with rubbing alcohol.

Quadrifoglio Instrument Cluster
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DESCRIPTIONS
1. Tachometer•Indicates the engine speed in revolutions
per minute (RPM x 1000).
• Inside the tachometer there is a light
sensor capable of detecting ambient light conditions and adjusting the operatingmode (night/day) and the brightness of theinstrument panel and the Information andEntertainment System display. 2. Engine Oil Temperature Gauge
•The digital bar indicator monitors the
temperature of the engine oil and starts
supplying indications when the fluid temperature reaches approximately122°F (50°C).
• Under normal usage, the digital scale
should hover around the middle of thescale according to the working conditions.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You
or others could be badly burned by steam or
boiling coolant. It is recommended to call an
authorized dealer for service if your vehicle
overheats

The display graphically shows the values of:
• engine torque;
• turbocharger pressure;
• engine oil pressure (L = low pressure/
H= high pressure).
NOTE:
The engine torque and turbocharger pressure
values vary according to the engine type.

(Continued)
If the light remains on when the parking brake has
been disengaged, and the fluid level is at the full
mark on the master cylinder reservoir, it indicates
a possible brake hydraulic system malfunction or
that a problem with the Brake Booster has been
detected by the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) /
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system. In this
case, the light will remain on until the condition
has been corrected. If the problem is related to the
brake booster, the ABS pump will run when
applying the brake, and a brake pedal pulsation
may be felt during each stop.
The dual brake system provides a reserve braking
capacity in the event of a failure to a portion of the
hydraulic system. A leak in either half of the dual
brake system is indicated by the Brake Warning
Light, which will turn on when the brake fluid level
in the master cylinder has dropped below a
specified level.
The light will remain on until the cause is corrected.
NOTE:
The light may flash momentarily during sharp
cornering maneuvers, which change fluid level
conditions. The vehicle should have service
performed, and the brake fluid level checked.
If brake failure is indicated, immediate repair is
necessary.
Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake
System (ABS) are also equipped with Electronic
Brake Force Distribution (EBD). In the event of an
EBD failure, the Brake Warning Light will turn on
along with the ABS Light. Immediate repair to the
ABS system is required.
Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be
checked by turning the ignition switch from the
OFF position to the ON/RUN position. The light
should illuminate for approximately two seconds.
The light should then turn off unless the parking
brake is applied or a brake fault is detected. If the
light does not illuminate, have the light inspected
by an authorized dealer.
The light also will turn on when the parking brake
is applied with the ignition switch in the ON/RUN
position.
NOTE:
This light shows only that the parking brake is
applied. It does not show the degree of brake
application.
Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD)
Failure
The simultaneous turning on of the
BRAKE (red) and (amber) warning
lights with the engine on indicates either
a failure of the EBD system or that the
system is not available. In this case, the rear
wheels may suddenly lock and the vehicle may
swerve when braking abruptly.
Drive very carefully to the nearest authorized
dealer to have the system inspected immediately.
Oil Temperature Warning Light
This telltale indicates engine oil
temperature is high.
Stop the vehicle and shut off the engine as soon
as possible. If the problem persists, contact an
authorized dealer.
Seat Belt Reminder Warning Light
When the ignition is first placed in the
ON/RUN position, if the driver’s seat
belt is unbuckled, a chime will sound
and the light will turn on. When driving,
if the driver or front passenger seat belt remains
unbuckled, the Seat Belt Reminder Light will flash
or remain on continuously and a chime will sound
Ú
page 151. WARNING!
The fault of the warning light is signaled by the
turning on of the icon on the instrument panel.
In this case, the warning light may not indicate
any faults with the restraint systems. Before
proceeding, contact an authorized dealer to
have the system checked immediately.
If the warning light does not turn on when the
ignition device is moved to ON or if it stays on
when driving (together with the message on the
display), there might be a fault in the restraint
systems; in this case, the air bags or preten -
sioners may not deploy in the event of an
accident or, in a lower number of cases, they
could deploy erroneously. Before proceeding,
contact an authorized dealer to have the
system checked immediately.
