ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM (OBD II)
Your vehicle is equipped with a sophisticated
onboard diagnostic system called OBD II. This
system monitors the performance of the
emissions, engine, and automatic transmission
control systems. When these systems are
operating properly, your vehicle will provide
excellent performance and fuel economy, as well
as engine emissions well within current
government regulations.
If any of these systems require service, the OBD II
syste m
will turn on the Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL). It will also store diagnostic codes and other
information to assist your service technician in
making repairs. Although your vehicle will usually
be drivable and not need towing, see an authorized
dealer for service as soon as possible.

Four-Pin Connector Seven-Pin Connector
TOWING TIPS
Before towing, practice turning, stopping, and
backing the trailer in an area located away from
heavy traffic.
Towing any trailer will increase your stopping
distance. When towing you should allow for
additional space between your vehicle and the
vehicle in front of you. Failure to do so could
result in a collision.
CAUTION!
If the trailer weighs more than 1,000 lb (453 kg)
loaded, it should have its own brakes and they
should be of adequate capacity. Failure to do
this could lead to accelerated brake lining wear,
higher brake pedal effort, and longer stopping
distances.

Automatic SOS — If Equipped
Automatic SOS is a hands-free safety service that
can immediately connect you with help in the event
that your vehicle’s airbags deploy. After an
accident, a live agent will contact you through the
Uconnect system and alert emergency services.
NOTE:
An active SiriusXM Guardian™ subscription is
requi r
ed for this feature to function.
After a crash where the airbags deploy:
1. Automatic SOS will initiate a call with an agen t
.
2. An agent will receive the call and confirm the locati
on of the emergency.
3. If needed, the agent will request the assis
tance of emergency services.
4. First responders will arrive on scene. The agent
will remain on the call until emergency
services arrive.
NOTE:
Agents are available 24/7 to assist you in the
case of an emergency.
On your behalf, agents are able to notify family
members about the collision.
Agents can brief first responders of the situation
before they arrive on scene.
In the event vehicle occupants are unable to
speak, emergency services will be dispatched
based on the last known GPS coordinates.

SAFETY 231
NOTE:
In a parking lot situation, oncoming vehicles can be
blocke d
by vehicles parked on either side. If the
sensors are blocked by other structures or
vehicles, the system will not be able to alert the
driver.
Blind Spot Modes
Blind Spot has three selectable modes of
operation that are available in the Uconnect
system.
Blind Spot Alert Lights Only
When operating in Blind Spot Alert mode, the BSM
s ystem
will provide a visual alert in the appropriate
side view mirror based on a detected object.
However, when the system is operating in Rear
Cross Path (RCP) mode, the system will respond with both visual and audible alerts when a
detected object is present. Whenever an audible
alert is requested, the radio is muted.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
m
ode, t
he BSM system will provide a visual alert in
the appropriate side view mirror based on a
detected object. If the turn signal is then activated,
and it corresponds to an alert present on that side
of the vehicle, an audible chime will also be
sounded. Whenever a turn signal and detected
object are present on the same side at the same
time, both the visual and audible alerts will be
issued. In addition to the audible alert, the radio (if
on) will also be muted.
NOTE:
Whenever an audible alert is requested by the
BSM s y
stem, the radio is also muted.
When the system is in RCP, the system will respond
with b
oth visual and audible alerts when a
detected object is present. Whenever an audible
alert is requested, the radio is also muted. Turn/
hazard signal status is ignored; the RCP state
always requests the chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off, there will be a
relat e
d message on instrument cluster display. If
BSM system is off, this message will be visualized
every time the vehicle is restarted.
NOTE:
The BSM system will store the current operating
mode w h
en the vehicle is shut off. Each time the
vehicle is started the previously stored mode will
be recalled and used.

SAFETY 241
SEAT BELT SYSTEMS
Buckle up even though you are an excellent driver,
even on short trips. Someone on the road may be
a poor driver and could cause a collision that
includes you. This can happen far away from home
or on your own street.
Research has shown that seat belts save lives, and
they c
an reduce the seriousness of injuries in a
collision. Some of the worst injuries happen when
people are thrown from the vehicle. Seat belts
reduce the possibility of ejection and the risk of
injury caused by striking the inside of the vehicle.
Everyone in a motor vehicle should be belted at all
times.
Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder System
(BeltAlert)
Driver And Passenger BeltAlert — If Equipped
BeltAlert is a feature intended to remind the driver and outboard front seat
passenger to buckle their seat belts. The
BeltAlert feature is active whenever the
ignition switch is in the START or ON/RUN position.
Initial Indication
If the driver is unbuckled when the ignition switch
is fi r
st in the START or ON/RUN position a chime
will signal for a few seconds. If the driver or
outboard front seat passenger is unbuckled when
the ignition switch is first in the START or ON/RUN position the Seat Belt Reminder Light will turn solid
red and remain red until the seat belt is buckled.
After the driver and outboard front seat passenger
have buckled their seat belts all Seat Belt
Reminder Lights will turn off. The outboard front
passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when the
outboard front passenger seat is unoccupied. The
cluster display will inform the driver that you must
fasten the driver’s seat belt in order to release the
parking brake.
BeltAlert Warning Sequence
The BeltAlert warning sequence is activated when
t
he v e
hicle is moving above a specified vehicle
speed range and the driver or outboard front seat
passenger is unbuckled (the outboard front
passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when the
outboard front passenger seat is unoccupied). The
BeltAlert warning sequence starts by blinking the
Seat Belt Reminder Light and sounding an
intermittent chime. Once the BeltAlert warning
sequence has completed, the Seat Belt Reminder
Light will remain solid red until the driver and
outboard front seat passenger are buckled. The
BeltAlert warning sequence may repeat based on
vehicle speed until the driver and occupied
outboard front seat passenger seat belts are
buckled. The driver should instruct all occupants to
buckle their seat belts. Change Of Status
If the driver or outboard front seat passenger
unbuc
k
les their seat belt while the vehicle is
traveling, the BeltAlert warning sequence will begin
until the seat belts are buckled again.
The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is not
active
when the outboard front passenger seat is
unoccupied. BeltAlert may be triggered when an
animal or other items are placed on the outboard
front passenger seat or when the seat is folded flat
(if equipped). It is recommended that pets be
restrained in the rear seat (if equipped) in pet
harnesses or pet carriers that are secured by seat
belts, and cargo is properly stowed.
BeltAlert can be activated or deactivated by an
author i
zed dealer. FCA US LLC does not
recommend deactivating BeltAlert.
NOTE:
If BeltAlert has been deactivated, the Seat Belt
Remin d
er Light will turn on and remain on until the
driver and outboard front seat passenger seat
belts are buckled.
Lap/Shoulder Belts
All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped
with lap/shoulder belts.
The seat belt webbing retractor will lock only during
very s
udden stops or collisions. This feature allows
the shoulder part of the seat belt to move freely
with you under normal conditions. However, in a
