completely and continue to hold the switch up
for an additional two seconds after the
window is closed.

2. Push the window switch down firmly to open the window completely and continue to hold
the switch down for an additional two seconds
after the window is fully open.
WINDOW LOCKOUT SWITCH
The window lockout switch on the driver's door trim
panel allows you to disable the window controls on
the rear passenger doors. To disable the window

WIND BUFFETING

Wind buffeting can be described as the perception
of pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound
in the ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting
with the windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped)
in certain open or partially open positions. This is a
normal occurrence and can be minimized. If the
buffeting occurs with the rear windows open, open
the front and rear windows together to minimize
the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the
sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to
minimize the buffeting or open any window.

POWER SUNROOF WITH POWER SHADE —
IF EQUIPPED
The power sunroof switches are located between
the sun visors on the overhead console.

Power Sunroof Switches

WARNING!
There is no anti-pinch protection when the
window is almost closed. To avoid personal
injury be sure to clear your arms, hands, fingers
and all objects from the window path before
closing.

OPENING AND CLOSING THE SUNROOF
The sunroof has two programmed open positions,
comfort stop position and full open position. The
comfort stop position has been optimized to
minimize wind buffeting when driving with side
windows closed and sunroof open. If the sunshade
is in the closed position when initiating a sunroof
open or vent command the sunshade will
automatically open to the half open position prior
to the sunroof opening.
Express Open/Close
Push the switch to open and release it within
one-half second and the sunroof will open to the
comfort stop (partially opened) position and
automatically stop. Push the switch and release it
again, and the sunroof will open to the full open
position then automatically stop.
Pull the switch to close and release it within
one-half second and the sunroof will completely
close automatically from any position.
During Express Open or Express Close operation,
any movement of the sunroof switch will stop the
sunroof. Manual Open/Close
Push and hold the switch to open. The sunroof will
open to the comfort stop (partially opened)
position and automatically stop. Push the switch
and hold it again, and the sunroof will open to the
full open position then automatically stop.
Pull and hold the switch to completely close the
sunroof from any position.
Any release of the switch during open or close
operation will stop the sunroof movement. The
sunroof will remain in a partially opened position
until the switch is operated and held again.
VENTING SUNROOF
Push and release the vent switch within one-half
second and the sunroof will move from the closed
position to the vent position. This is called “Express
Vent.” During Express Vent operation, any
movement of the switch will stop the sunroof.
NOTE:When the sunroof is in a full open or a partial open
position, Express Vent operation is not available.
You must push and hold the vent switch to cycle
the sunroof from a slide open position to the vent
position. Sunroof movement will stop if the switch
is released prior to the sunroof reaching the vent
position.
WARNING!
Never leave children unattended in a vehicle,
or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Never
leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in a
location accessible to children. Do not leave
the ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless
Enter ‘n Go™ in the ON/RUN position. Occu
-
pants, particularly unattended children, can
become entrapped by the power sunroof while
operating the power sunroof switch. Such
entrapment may result in serious injury or
death.
In a collision, there is a greater risk of being
thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof.
You could also be seriously injured or killed.
Always fasten your seat belt properly and
make sure all passengers are also properly
secured.
Do not allow small children to operate the
sunroof. Never allow your fingers, other body
parts, or any object, to project through the
sunroof opening. Injury may result.
Do not use the sunroof and its related parts
for supporting and/or grabbing purposes.
Serious personal injury may result to fingers
and other body parts as well as damage to the
sunroof.

within one-half second and the sunshade will open
to the half open position and stop automatically.
Push the switch and release it again, and the
sunshade will open to the full open position and
stop automatically.
Pull the sunshade switch to close and release it
within one-half second. If the sunroof is in closed
position, the sunshade will full close automatically
from any position. If the sunroof is open or vented,
the sunshade cannot be closed beyond the half
open position. Pulling the sunshade switch when
the sunshade is in the half open position will
automatically close sunroof prior to the sunshade

again will close both the sunroof and sunshade
completely.
Any release of the switch will stop the movement
and the sunshade will remain in a partially opened
position until the switch is pushed again.
PINCH PROTECT FEATURE
This feature will detect an obstruction in the
opening of the sunroof during Express Close
operation. If an obstruction in the path of the
sunroof is detected, the sunroof will automatically
retract. Remove the obstruction if this occurs.
Next, pull the sunroof close switch and release to
Express Close.
NOTE:If three consecutive sunroof close attempts result
in Pinch Protect reversals, Pinch Protect will
disable and the sunroof must be closed in Manual
Mode.

ROOF LUGGAGE RACK — IF EQUIPPED
The load carried on the roof, when equipped with a
luggage rack, must not exceed 150 lb (68 kg), and
it should be uniformly distributed over the cargo
area.
Crossbars should always be used whenever cargo
is placed on the roof rack. Check the straps
frequently to be sure that the load remains
securely attached.
NOTE:Crossbars can be purchased at your authorized
dealer through Mopar® parts.
External racks do not increase the total load
carrying capacity of the vehicle. Be sure that the
total occupant and luggage load inside the vehicle,
plus the load on the luggage rack, do not exceed
the maximum vehicle load capacity.
WARNING!
Cargo must be securely tied down before driving
your vehicle. Improperly secured loads can fly off
the vehicle, particularly at high speeds, resulting
in personal injury or property damage. Follow
the roof rack cautions when carrying cargo on
your roof rack.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the roof rack and vehicle,
do not exceed the maximum roof rack load
capacity. Always distribute heavy loads as
evenly as possible and secure the load appro-
priately.
Long loads, which extend over the windshield,
should be secured to both the front and rear of
the vehicle.
Place a blanket or other protection between
the surface of the roof and the load.
Travel at reduced speeds and turn corners
carefully when carrying large or heavy loads
on the roof rack. Wind forces, due to natural
causes or nearby truck traffic, can add sudden
upward lift. It is recommended to not carry
large flat loads, such as wood panels or surf -
boards, which may result in damage to the
cargo or your vehicle.
Load should always be secured to crossbars
first, with tie down loops used as additional
securing points if needed. Tie loops are
intended as supplementary tie down points
only. Do not use ratcheting mechanisms with
the tie loops. Check the straps frequently to be
sure that the load remains securely attached.
CAUTION!

SAFETY221
The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or
complete ejection of vehicle occupants through
side windows in certain side impact events. Side Impacts
The Side Air Bags are designed to activate in
certain side impacts. The Occupant Restraint
Controller (ORC) determines whether the
deployment of the Side Air Bags in a particular
impact event is appropriate, based on the severity
and type of collision. The side impact sensors aid
the ORC in determining the appropriate response
to impact events. The system is calibrated to
deploy the Side Air Bags on the impact side of the
vehicle during impacts that require Side Air Bag
occupant protection. In side impacts, the Side Air
Bags deploy independently; a left side impact
deploys the left Side Air Bags only and a right-side
impact deploys the right Side Air Bags only. Vehicle
damage by itself is not a good indicator of whether
or not Side Air Bags should have deployed.
The Side Air Bags will not deploy in all side
collisions, including some collisions at certain
angles, or some side collisions that do not impact
the area of the passenger compartment. The Side
Air Bags may deploy during angled or offset frontal
collisions where the front air bags deploy.Side Air Bags are a supplement to the seat belt
restraint system. Side Air Bags deploy in less time
than it takes to blink your eyes.
WARNING!
Do not mount equipment, or stack luggage or
other cargo up high enough to block the
deployment of the SABICs. The trim covering
above the side windows where the SABIC and
its deployment path are located should
remain free from any obstructions.
In order for the SABICs to work as intended, do
not install any accessory items in your vehicle
which could alter the roof. Do not add an after
-
market sunroof to your vehicle. Do not add
roof racks that require permanent attach -
ments (bolts or screws) for installation on the
vehicle roof. Do not drill into the roof of the
vehicle for any reason.
WARNING!
Occupants, including children, who are up
against or very close to Side Air Bags can be
seriously injured or killed. Occupants,
including children, should never lean on or
sleep against the door, side windows, or area
where the side air bags inflate, even if they are
in an infant or child restraint.
Seat belts (and child restraints where appro -
priate) are necessary for your protection in all
collisions. They also help keep you in position,
away from an inflating Side Air Bag. To get the
best protection from the Side Air Bags, occu -
pants must wear their seat belts properly and
sit upright with their backs against the seats.
Children must be properly restrained in a child
restraint or booster seat that is appropriate for
the size of the child.
