Chrysler Country - 2011 User Manual

Driving anD alcohol: Drunken driving is one of the most

frequent causes of collisions. Your driving ability can be seriously
impaired with blood alcohol levels far below the legal minimum. If
you are drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking
driver, call a cab, a friend, or use public transportation.

Driving after drinking can lead to a collision. Your
perceptions are less sharp, your reflexes are slower, and
your judgment is impaired when you have been drinking.
Never drink and then drive.

The driver’s primary responsibility is the safe operation of the vehicle. Driving while distracted can
result in loss of vehicle control, resulting in a collision and personal injury. Chrysler Group LLC
strongly recommends that the driver use extreme caution when using any device or feature that
may take their attention o the road. Use of any electrical devices such as cell phones, computers,
portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices by the driver while the vehicle is moving is
dangerous and could lead to a serious collision. Texting while driving is also dangerous and should
never be done while the vehicle is moving. If you find yourself unable to devote your full attention
to vehicle operation, pull o the road to a safe location and stop your vehicle. Some States or
Provinces prohibit the use of cellular telephones or texting while driving. It is always the driver’s
responsibility to comply with all local laws.

IMPORTANT: This User Guide is intended to familiarize you with the important features of your
vehicle. The DVD enclosed contains your Owner’s Manual, Navigation/Media Center Manuals,
Warranty Booklets, Tire Warranty and 24-Hour Towing Assistance (new vehicles purchased in the

INTRODUCTION/WELCOME

WELCOME FROM CHRYSLER GROUP LLC

Congratulations on selecting your new Chrysler Group LLC vehicle. Be assured that it represents
precision workmanship, distinctive styling, and high quality - all essentials that are traditional to our
vehicles.

Your new Chrysler Group LLC vehicle has characteristics to enhance the driver's control under some
driving conditions. These are to assist the driver and are never a substitute for attentive driving. They
can never take the driver's place. Always drive carefully.

Your new vehicle has many features for the comfort and convenience of you and your passengers.
Some of these should not be used when driving because they take your eyes from the road or your
attention from driving. Never text while driving or take your eyes more than momentarily off the
road.

This guide illustrates and describes the operation of features and equipment that are either standard
or optional on this vehicle. This guide may also include a description of features and equipment that
are no longer available or were not ordered on this vehicle. Please disregard any features and
equipment described in this guide that are not available on this vehicle. Chrysler Group LLC
reserves the right to make changes in design and specifications and/or make additions to or
improvements to its products without imposing any obligation upon itself to install them on products
previously manufactured.

This User Guide has been prepared to help you quickly become acquainted with the important
features of your vehicle. It contains most things you will need to operate and maintain the vehicle,
including emergency information.

The DVD includes a computer application containing detailed owner's information which can be
viewed on a personal computer or MAC computer. The multimedia DVD also includes videos which
can be played on any standard DVD player (including the Media Center Touch-Screen Radios).
Additional DVD operational information is located on the back of the DVD sleeve.

For complete owner information, refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD in the owner’s kit
provided at the time of new vehicle purchase. For your convenience, the information contained on
the DVD may also be printed and saved for future reference.

Chrysler Group LLC is committed to protecting our environment and natural resources. By
converting from paper to electronic delivery for the majority of the user information for your vehicle,
together we greatly reduce the demand for tree-based products and lessen the stress on our
environment.

SEAT BELT

• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.

• Position the lap belt across your thighs, below your abdomen. To remove slack in the lap
portion, pull up a bit on the shoulder belt. To loosen the lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch
plate and pull on the lap belt. A snug belt reduces the risk of sliding under the belt in a collision.

• Position the shoulder belt on your chest so that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck.
The retractor will withdraw any slack in the belt.

• A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during a collision. You are
more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not wear your shoulder belt. The lap and
shoulder belt are meant to be used together.

• A belt that is too loose will not protect you properly. In a sudden stop you could move too far
forward, increasing the possibility of injury. Wear your seat belt snugly.

• A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection. Inspect the
belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts. Damaged parts must be
replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the system. Seat belt assemblies must be
replaced after a collision if they have been damaged (bent retractor, torn webbing, etc.).

• The seat belts for both front seating positions are equipped with pretensioning devices that are
designed to remove slack from the seat belt in the event of a collision.

• A deployed pretensioner or a deployed airbag must be replaced immediately.

WARNING!

In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not
buckled up properly. You can strike the interior of your vehicle or other passengers, or you
can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others in your vehicle are buckled
up properly.

12

GETTING STARTED

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) — AIR BAGS

• This vehicle has Advanced Front Air Bags for both the driver and right front passenger as a
supplement to the seat belt restraint system. The Advanced Front Air Bags will not deploy in
every type of collision.

• Advanced Front Air Bags are designed to provide additional protection by supplementing the
seat belts in certain frontal collisions depending on the severity and type of collision. Advanced
Front Air Bags are not expected to reduce the risk of injury in rear, side, or rollover collisions.

• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains to protect the
driver, front and rear passengers sitting next to a window.

• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags to provide enhanced
protection to help protect an occupant during a side impact.

• If the Air Bag Warning Light
have the vehicle serviced by an authorized service center immediately.

• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details regarding the Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS).

is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving,

WARNING!

• Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The air
bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions, the air bags
won't deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you have air bags.

• Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced Front Air Bag
deployment could cause serious injury, including death. Air bags need room to inflate. Sit
back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the steering wheel or instrument panel.

• Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains and Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air
Bags need room to inflate. Do not lean against the door or window. Sit upright in the
center of the seat.

• Being too close to the Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtain and/or
Seat-Mounted Side Air Bag during deployment could cause you to be severely injured or
killed.

• Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed. If you are involved in another
collision, the air bags will not be in place to protect you.

• After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer immediately.

CHILD RESTRAINTS

• Children 12 years and under should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, if available.
According to crash statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seats rather
than in the front.

• Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small children ride in
proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it.

13

GETTING STARTED

Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System

• Each vehicle, except commercial cargo vehicles, is equipped with the child restraint anchorage
system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for CHildren.

• Two LATCH child restraint anchorage systems are installed on all second-row seats and in the
center position on all third row fold-in-floor seats.

• Second-row seats also feature tether strap anchorages, located in the rear surface of the
seatback.

• In addition, all third row fold-in-floor seats are equipped with a child restraint tether anchor at
the center seating position.

Installing The Lower Attachments:

• The vehicle lower anchorages are round bars located at the rear of the seat cushion where it
meets the seatback.

• Loosen the child seat adjusters on the lower
child restraint attachment straps to ease the
installation.

NOTE: It is recommended to loosen the top

tether strap and route it loosely prior to
securing the lower anchors so the top tether
strap is not trapped between the vehicle seat
and child restraint.

• Attach the lower child restraint attachment straps to the vehicle’s lower anchor bars. Ensure that
the lower attachment strap is firmly engaged and that the hook is secure.

• Tighten the lower attachment strap while firmly pushing the child restraint rearward and
downward into the vehicle seat. Remove all slack in the lower attachment straps.

Installing The Top Tether Strap (With Either Lower Anchors Or Vehicle Seat Belt):

• Route the top tether strap under the adjustable head restraint between the steel posts.

• Provide enough slack for the tether strap to
reach the tether anchor located near the
bottom of the seat back.

• Clip tether hook to tether anchor. Ensure
that the hook is firmly engaged and secure.

• Remove all slack and tighten tether strap
according to child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions.

NOTE: The top tether strap is always to be secured, regardless of if the child restraint is installed

with the lower anchors or the vehicle seat belt.

14

GETTING STARTED

Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts

• To install a child restraint, first, pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to route
it through the belt path of the child restraint and slide the latch plate into the buckle.

• Next, extract all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor and then allow the belt to retract into
the retractor. Finally, pull on any excess webbing to tighten the lap portion around the child
restraint. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally, and pull it
tight if necessary.

• Once you have completed securing the child restraint with the seat belt, secure the top tether
strap.

WARNING!

• In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projectile inside the
vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on your lap could become so great
that you could not hold the child, no matter how strong you are. The child and others
could be severely injured or killed. Any child riding in your vehicle should be in a proper
restraint for the child's size.

• Failure to comply with the following conditions could result in you and others being
severely injured or killed:

• Be certain that the seat cushion is locked securely into position before using the seat.
An improperly latched seat cushion could passengers to be severely injured or killed.

• An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible
injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly behind the child seat to secure a
child restraint top tether strap.

• Rearward-facing child seats must never be used in the front seat of a vehicle with a front
passenger air bag. An air bag deployment could cause infants in this position to be
severely injured or killed.

FRONT SEATS

• Press 1 or 2 to recall the saved positions, or press UNLOCK on the programmed Key Fob.

CAUTION!

DO NOT place any article under a power seat or impede its ability to move as it may cause
damage to the seat controls. Seat travel may become limited if movement is stopped by an
obstruction in the seat's path.

WARNING!

• Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The sudden movement of the
seat could cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not be properly adjusted, and
you could be severely injured or killed. Only adjust a seat while the vehicle is parked.

• Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the seat belt is no longer resting against
your chest. In a collision, you could slide under the seat belt and be severely injured or

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

24-HOUR TOWING ASSISTANCE

• Dial toll-free 1-800-521-2779 or 1-800-363-4869 for Canadian residents.

• Provide your name, vehicle identification number and license plate number.

• Provide your location, including telephone number, from which you are calling.

• Briefly describe the nature of the problem and answer a few simple questions.

• You will be given the name of the service provider and an estimated time of arrival. If you feel
you are in an “unsafe situation”, please let us know. With your consent, we will contact local
police or safety authorities.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WARNING LIGHTS

- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Indicator Light

• If this indicator light flashes during acceleration, apply as little throttle as possible. While
driving, ease up on the accelerator. Adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road
conditions. To improve the vehicle's traction when starting off in deep snow, sand or gravel, it
may be desirable to switch the ESC system off.

- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Light

• Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly, when cold and inflated
to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or
tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on
the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)

• As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the
vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.

• IF THE LIGHT STARTS FLASHING INDICATING A LOW TIRE PRESSURE, ADJUST

THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE LOW TIRE TO THE AIR PRESSURE SHOWN ON THE
VEHICLE PLACARD OR TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE LABEL LOCATED ON THE
DRIVER'S DOOR. NOTE: AFTER INFLATION, THE VEHICLE MAY NEED TO BE
DRIVEN FOR 20 MINUTES BEFORE THE FLASHING LIGHT WILL TURN OFF.

• Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s
responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.

• Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the
system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately
one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue each time
the vehicle is restarted as long as the malfunction exists.

58

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

• When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal
low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including
the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS
from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle, to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and
wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.

CAUTION!

The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle.
Undesirable system operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement
equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket wheels can cause
sensor damage. Do not use tire sealant from a can, or balance beads if your vehicle is
equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may result.

- Engine Temperature Warning Light

• This light warns of an overheated engine condition.

• If the light turns on or flashes continuously while driving, safely pull over and stop the vehicle. If
the A/C system is on, turn it off. Also, shift the transmission into NEUTRAL and idle the
vehicle. If the temperature reading does not return to normal, turn the engine off immediately
and call for service.

• We recommend that you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have the
vehicle serviced immediately.

WARNING!

A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others could be badly burned by steam
or boiling coolant. You may want to call an authorized service center for service if your
vehicle overheats.

BRAKE

- Brake Warning Light

• The Brake Warning light illuminates when there is either a system malfunction or the parking
brake is applied. If the light is on and the parking brake is not applied, it indicates a possible
brake hydraulic malfunction, brake booster problem or an Anti-Lock Brake System problem.

• We recommend you drive to the nearest service center and have the vehicle serviced
immediately.

WARNING!

Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake system may
have failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have a collision. Have the
vehicle checked immediately.

59

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

- Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)

• Certain conditions, such as a loose or missing gas cap, poor fuel quality, etc., may illuminate the
MIL after engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on through several
typical driving cycles. In most situations, the vehicle will drive normally and not require towing.

• If the MIL flashes when the engine is running, serious conditions may exist that could lead to
immediate loss of power or severe catalytic converter damage. We recommend you do not
operate the vehicle. Have the vehicle serviced immediately.

- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Indicator Light/Brake Assist System (BAS) Warning

Light

• If the ESC/BAS warning light comes on continuously with the engine running, a malfunction
has been detected.

• If this light remains on after several ignition cycles, and the vehicle has been driven several miles
(kilometers) at speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), we recommend you drive to the nearest
service center and have the vehicle serviced immediately.

- Charging System Light

• This light shows the status of the electrical charging system. If the charging system light
remains on, it means that the vehicle is experiencing a problem with the charging system.

• We recommend you do not continue driving if the charging system light is on. Have the vehicle
serviced immediately.

- Oil Pressure Warning Light

• This light indicates low engine oil pressure. If the light turns on while driving, stop the vehicle
and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A chime will sound for four minutes when this light
turns on.

• We recommend you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have the vehicle
serviced immediately.

- Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light

• This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS).

• If the light is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, we recommend you drive
to the nearest service center and have the vehicle serviced immediately.

- Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light

• This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system.

• If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the engine is running. Cycle the ignition
when the vehicle has completely stopped and the shift lever is placed in the PARK position; the
light should turn off.

• If the light remains lit with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable; however, see
an authorized service center immediately. If the light is flashing when the engine is running,
immediate service is required and you may experience reduced performance, an
elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may require towing.

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

- Air Bag Warning Light

• If the light is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, have the vehicle serviced
by an authorized service center immediately.

Fuel Cap/Loose Gas Cap Message

• If a “gas cap” message (shown as gASCAP) appears, tighten the gas cap until a “clicking” sound
is heard.

• Press the odometer reset button to turn the message off.

• If the message continues to appear for more than three days after tightening the gas cap, see
your authorized service center.

Oil Change Indicator

Message

• If an “oil change” message (shown as CHAngE OIL) appears and a single chime sounds, it is
time for your next required oil change.

Resetting The Light After Servicing

• Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position (do not start engine).

• Fully depress the accelerator pedal three times within 10 seconds.

• Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position.

IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS

• In any of the following situations, you can reduce the potential for overheating by taking the
appropriate action.

• On the highways — slow down.

• In city traffic — while stopped, place the transmission in NEUTRAL, but do not increase engine
idle speed.

NOTE: There are steps that you can take to slow down an impending overheat condition:

• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The A/C system adds heat to the engine cooling
system and turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.

• You can also turn the temperature control to maximum heat, the mode control to floor and the
blower control to high. This allows the heater core to act as a supplement to the radiator and aids
in removing heat from the engine cooling system.

CAUTION!

Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the temperature gauge
reads 240°F (116 °C) or greater pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range 200–230°F
(93–110°C). If the pointer remains at 240°F (116°C) or greater and you hear a chime, turn
the engine off immediately and call for service.

61

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

WARNING!

You or others can be badly burned by hot engine coolant (antifreeze) or steam from your
radiator. If you see or hear steam coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until
the radiator has had time to cool. Never try to open a cooling system pressure cap when
the radiator or coolant bottle is hot.

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

WARNING! (Continued)

• Do not get under the vehicle when it is on a jack.

• Only use the jack in the positions indicated and for lifting this vehicle during a tire
change.

• If working on or near a roadway, be extremely careful of motor traffic.

• To assure that spare tires, flat or inflated, are securely stowed, spares must be stowed with
the valve stem facing the ground.

• Getting under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the jack and
fall on you. You could be crushed. Never get any part of your body under a vehicle that is
on a jack. If you need to get under a raised vehicle, take it to a service center where it can
be raised on a lift.

• Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the vehicle less stable. It could slip off
the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the vehicle only enough to remove the tire.

• To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not tighten the lug nuts fully until
the vehicle has been lowered.

• A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in the places
provided. Have the deflated (flat) tire repaired or replaced immediately.

• A loose compact spare tire/cover assembly, thrown forward in a collision or hard stop
could endanger the occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the compact spare tire with
the cover assembly in the place provided.

• Verify that both retainer tabs of the wheel spacer have been properly extended through
the center of the wheel and spare tire/cover assembly. Failure to properly engage both
retainer tabs could result in loss of the spare tire and cover assembly, which will cause
vehicle damage and may cause loss of vehicle control.

• To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not tighten the lug nuts fully until
the vehicle is lowered to the ground.

JUMP-STARTING

70

• 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.

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

Preparations for Jump-Start

• The battery in your vehicle is located on the left side of the engine compartment.

• Set the parking brake, shift the automatic transmission into PARK and turn the ignition to
LOCK.

• Turn off the heater, radio, and all unnecessary electrical accessories.

• If using another vehicle to jump-start the battery, park the vehicle within the jumper cables
reach, set the parking brake and make sure the ignition is OFF.

Jump-Starting Procedure

• Connect the positive (+) end of the jumper cable to the positive (+) post of the discharged
vehicle.

• Connect the opposite end of the positive (+) jumper cable to the positive (+) post of the
booster battery.

• Connect the negative end (-) of the jumper cable to the negative (-) post of the booster
battery.

• Connect the opposite end of the negative (-) jumper cable to a good engine ground (exposed
metal part of the discharged vehicle's engine) away from the battery and fuel injection system.

• Start the engine in the vehicle that has the booster battery, let the engine idle a few minutes,
and then start the engine in the vehicle with the discharged battery.

Once the engine is started, remove the jumper cables in the reverse sequence:

• Disconnect the negative (-) jumper cable from the negative (-) post of the vehicle with the
discharged battery.

• Disconnect the negative end (-) of the jumper cable from the negative (-) post of the booster
battery.

• Disconnect the opposite end of the positive (+) jumper cable from the positive (+) post of the
booster battery.

• Disconnect the positive (+) end of the jumper cable from the positive (+) post of the
discharged vehicle.

• If frequent jump-starting is required to start your vehicle you should have the battery and
charging system inspected at your authorized dealer.

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 occur.

• Failure to follow these procedures could result in damage to the charging system of the
booster vehicle or the discharged vehicle.

• Accessories that can be plugged into the vehicle power outlets draw power from the
vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged
in long enough, the vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life
and/or prevent the engine from starting.

71

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

WARNING!

• When temperatures are below the freezing point, electrolyte in a discharged battery may
freeze. Do not attempt jump-starting because the battery could rupture or explode and
cause personal injury. Battery temperature must be brought above freezing point before
attempting a jump-start.

• Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan whenever the hood is raised. It can start
anytime the ignition switch is on. You can be injured by moving fan blades.

• Remove any metal jewelry, such as watch bands or bracelets, that might make an
inadvertent electrical contact. You could be severely injured.

• Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can burn your skin or eyes and generate hydrogen gas
which is flammable and explosive. Keep open flames or sparks away from the battery.

• Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as this could establish a ground connection
and personal injury could result.

• Failure to follow this procedure could result in personal injury or property damage due to
battery explosion.

• Do not connect the cable to the negative post (-) of the discharged battery. The
resulting electrical spark could cause the battery to explode and could result in personal
injury.

SHIFT LEVER OVERRIDE

• If a malfunction occurs and the shift lever
cannot be moved out of the PARK position,
you can use the following procedure to
temporarily move the shift lever:

• To access the shift lever override, remove
the cover located to the top right of the
shift lever in the instrument panel.

• Firmly set the parking brake.

• Turn the ignition switch to the ACC or
ON position without starting the engine.

• Press and maintain firm pressure on the
brake pedal.

• The override can be activated by pressing
the white-colored tab, which can be
accessed through the hole in the
instrument panel.

• Move the shift lever into the NEUTRAL
position.

• The vehicle may then be started in
NEUTRAL.

• Reinstall the override cover.

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE

• If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow, it can often be moved by a rocking motion.
Turn your steering wheel right and left to clear the area around the front wheels. Then, move
the shift lever back and forth between REVERSE and DRIVE. Using minimal accelerator pedal
pressure to maintain the rocking motion, without spinning the wheels, is most effective.

NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with Electronic Stability Control (ESC) or Traction

Control

, turn the system off before attempting to “rock” the vehicle.

CAUTION!

• When “rocking” a stuck vehicle by moving between REVERSE and DRIVE, do not spin
the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/h), or drivetrain damage may result.

• Revving the engine or spinning the wheels too fast may lead to transmission overheating
and failure. It can also damage the tires. Do not spin the wheels above 30 mph (48 km/h)
while in gear (no transmission shifting occurring).

WARNING!

Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces generated by excessive wheel speeds may
cause tire damage or failure. A tire could explode and injure someone. Do not spin your
vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) when you are stuck. Do not let anyone near
a spinning wheel, no matter what the speed.

74

WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

EVENT DATA RECORDER (EDR)

• This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to
record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The
EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short
period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such
data as:

• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;

• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;

• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,

• How fast the vehicle was traveling.

• These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and
injuries occur.

NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no

data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g. name,
gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement,
could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired
during a crash investigation.

• To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or
the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties such as law
enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to
the vehicle or the EDR.

75

MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE

OPENING THE HOOD

• Pull the hood release lever located on the
instrument panel, below the steering column.

• Raise the hood and locate the safety catch
lever, in the middle of the hood opening.

• Move the safety latch while lifting the hood
at the same time.

• Insert the support rod into the slot on the
hood.

• To close the hood, remove the support rod
and place it in the retaining clip, then lower
the hood slowly.

WARNING!

Be sure the hood is fully latched before driving your vehicle. If the hood is not fully latched,
it could open when the vehicle is in motion and block your vision. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious injury or death.

ADDING FUEL

Fuel Filler Cap (Gas Cap)

• The gas cap is located behind the fuel filler
door on the left side of the vehicle. If the gas
cap is lost or damaged, be sure the
replacement cap is for use with this vehicle.

• When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the
fuel tank is full.

• Tighten the gas cap until you hear a
“clicking” sound. This is an indication that the
gas cap is properly tightened. If not properly
tightened, the MIL (Malfunction Indicator
Light) may come on.

NOTE: The driver’s side sliding door cannot be opened while the fuel door is open.

76

MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE

CAUTION!

• Damage to the fuel system or emissions control system could result from using an
improper gas cap. A poorly fitting cap could let impurities into the fuel system and may
cause the MIL to turn on, due to fuel vapors escaping from the system.

• To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top off ” the fuel tank after filling.

WARNING!

• Never have any smoking materials lit in or near the vehicle when the gas cap is removed
or the tank filled.

• Never add fuel when the engine is running. This is in violation of most state and federal
fire regulations and will cause the MIL to turn on.

• A fire may result if gasoline is pumped into a portable container that is inside of a vehicle.
You could be burned. Always place gas containers on the ground while filling.

NOTE: Refer to the Owner's Manual on the

DVD for more information regarding tire
warnings and instructions.

WARNING!

• Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehicle
handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended load
capacity for your vehicle. Never overload them.

(Continued)

MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE

WARNING! (Continued)

• Improperly inflated tires are dangerous and can cause collisions. Under-inflation is the
leading cause of tire failure and may result in severe cracking, component separation, or
“blow out”. Over-inflation reduces a tire’s ability to cushion shock. Objects on the road
and chuck holes can cause damage that results in tire failure. Unequal tire pressures can
cause steering problems. You could lose control of your vehicle. Over-inflated or
under-inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail suddenly, resulting in loss of
vehicle control.

WHEEL AND WHEEL TRIM CARE

• All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome plated wheels, should be cleaned
regularly with a mild soap and water to prevent corrosion.

• To remove heavy soil and/or excessive brake dust, use MOPAR® Wheel Cleaner or equivalent
or select a non-abrasive, non-acidic cleaner.

CAUTION!

Do not use scouring pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, or metal polishes. Do not use oven
cleaner. These products may damage the wheel's protective finish. Avoid automatic car
washes that use acidic solutions or harsh brushes that may damage the wheel's protective
finish. Only MOPAR® Wheel Cleaner or equivalent is recommended.

Driving anD alcohol: Drunken driving is one of the most
frequent causes of collisions. Your driving ability can be seriously
impaired with blood alcohol levels far below the legal minimum. If
you are drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking
driver, call a cab, a friend, or use public transportation.

Driving after drinking can lead to a collision. Your
perceptions are less sharp, your reflexes are slower, and
your judgment is impaired when you have been drinking.
Never drink and then drive.
