To loosen the lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch plateand pull on the lap belt. A snugseat belt reduces the risk of sliding under the seat belt in a collision.

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

Seat Belt Pretensioner

The front seat belt system is 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 air bag must be replaced immediately.

WARNING!

• In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not properly buckled up. 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 arebuckled up properly.

• A shoulderbelt placed behind you willnotprotect you from injury duringa 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 seat belt that is too loose will not protect youproperly. In a suddenstop, you could move too far forward, increasing the possibility of injury. Wear your seat belt snugly.

• A frayed or torn seat belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection. Inspect the seat 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.

Advanced Front Air Bags

This vehicle has Advanced Front Air Bags for both the driver and front passenger as a supplement to the seat beltrestraintsystems.The Advanced Front Air Bags will not deployinevery type of collision.

Advanced Front Air Bags are designed to provide additional protection by supplementing the seat belts. Advanced Front Air Bags are not expected to reduce the risk of injury in rear, side, or rollover collisions.

The Advanced Front Air Bags will not deploy in all frontal collisions, including some that may produce substantial vehicle damage — for example, some pole collisions, truck underrides, and angle offset collisions.

On the other hand, depending on the type and location of impact, Advanced Front Air Bags may deploy in crashes with little vehicle front-end damage but that produce a severe initial deceleration.

Because air bag sensors measure vehicle deceleration over time, vehicle speed and damage by themselves are not good indicators of whether or not an air bag should have deployed

Seat belts are necessary for your protection in all collisions, and alsoare needed tohelp keep you in position, away from an inflating air bag.

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

GETTING STARTED

Do not drive your vehicleafterthe air bags have deployed.Ifyou are involved in another collision, the air bags will not be in place to protect you.

If it is necessaryto modify the airbag system for personswith disabilities, contact your authorized dealer.

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

Occupant Classification System

This vehicle is equipped with a right front passenger Occupant Classification System (“OCS”) that is designed to provide Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag output appropriate to the occupant’s seated weight input, as determined by the OCS.

The Occupant Classification System (OCS) consists of the following:

• Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)

• Occupant Classification Module (OCM) and Sensor located in the front passenger seat

• Air Bag Warning Light

The OCS will NOT prevent deployment of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. The OCS may reduce the inflation rate of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag if the OCS estimates that:

• The front passenger seat is unoccupied or has very light objects on it; or

• The front passenger seat is occupied by a small passenger, including a child; or

• The front passenger seat is occupied by a rear-facing child restraint; or

• The front passenger is not properly seated or his or her weight is taken off of the seat for a period of time.

Front Passenger Seat Occupant Status Front Passenger Air Bag Output

Rear-facing child restraint Reduced-power deployment Child, including a child in a forward-facing child

restraint or booster seat*

Properly seated adult

Unoccupied seat Reduced-power deployment

Reduced-power deployment OR Full-power deployment

Full-power deployment OR reduced-power deployment

* It is possible for a child to be classified as an adult, allowing a full-power Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag deployment. Never allow children to ride in the front passenger seat and never install a child restraint system, including a rear-facing child restraint, in the front passenger seat.

The OCS determines the front passenger’s most probable classification.

GETTING STARTED

The OCS estimates the seated weight on the front passenger seat and where that weight is located. The OCS communicates the classification status to the ORC. The ORC uses the classification to determine whether the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag inflation rate should be adjusted. In order for the OCS to operate as designed, it is important for the front passenger to be seated properly and properly wearing the seat belt. Properly seated passengers are:

• Sitting upright

• Facing forward

• Sitting in the center of the seat with their feet comfortably on or near the floor

• Sitting with their back against the seatback and the seatback in an upright position

Lighter Weight Passengers (Including Small Adults)

When a lighter weight passenger, including a small adult, occupies the front passenger seat, the OCS may reduce the inflation rate of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. This does not mean that the OCS is working improperly.

Do not decrease OR increase the front passenger’s seated weight on the front passenger seat

The front passenger’s seated weight must be properly positioned on the front passenger seat. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death. The OCS determines the most probable classification of the occupant that it detects. The OCS will detect the front passenger’s decreased or increased seated weight, which may result in an adjusted inflation rate of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag in a collision. This does not mean that the OCS is working improperly. Decreasing the front passenger’s seated weight on the front passenger seat may result in a reduced-power deployment of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. Increasing the front passenger’s seated weight on the front passenger seat may result in a full-power deployment of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. Examples of improper front passenger seating include:

• The front passenger’s weight is transferred to another part of the vehicle (like the door, arm rest or instrument panel).

• The front passenger leans forward, sideways, or turns to face the rear of the vehicle.

• The front passenger’s seatback is not in the full upright position.

• The front passenger carries or holds an object while seated (e.g., backpack, box, etc.).

• Objects are lodged under the front passenger seat.

• Objects are lodged between the front passenger seat and center console.

• Accessories that may change the seated weight on the front passenger seat are attached to the front passenger seat.

• Anything that may decrease or increase the front passenger’s seated weight.

Seated Properly

GETTING STARTED

The OCS determines the front passenger’s most probable classification. If an occupant in the front passenger seat isseatedimproperly, theoccupant may provide an output signalto the OCS that is different from the occupant’s properly seated weight input, for example:

The Air Bag Warning Light in the instrument panel unable to classify the front passenger seat status. A malfunction in the OCS may affect the operation of the air bag system.

If the Air Bag Warning Light come on, or stays on after you start the vehicle, or it comes on as you drive, take the vehicle to an authorized dealer for service immediately.

The passenger seat assembly contains critical OCS components that may affect the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag inflation. In order for the OCS to properly classify the seated weight of a front seat passenger, the OCS components must function as designed.

Do not make any modifications to the front passenger seat components, assembly, or to the seat cover. If the seat,trim cover,or cushion needs service for any reason,takethevehicle to your authorized dealer. Only FCA US LLC approved seat accessories may be used.

The following requirements must be strictly followed:

• Do not modify the front passenger seat as-

Supplemental Knee Air Bags

This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag mounted in the instrument panel below the steering column and a Supplemental Passenger Knee Air Bag mounted in the instrument panel below the glove compartment. The Supplemental Knee Air Bags provide enhanced protection duringa frontal impactby working togetherwith the seatbelts, pretensioners, and Advanced Front Air Bags.

WARNING!

• Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The air bags work with your seat beltto restrain you properly.In somecollisions,theair 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 reachthe steering wheel or instrument panel.

• No objects should be placed over or near the air bag on the instrument panel or steering wheel because any such objects could cause harm if the vehicle is in a collision severe enough to cause the air bag to inflate.

Supplemental Side Air Bags

This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SABs) located in the outboard side of the front seats. The SABs are marked with a SRS AIRBAG or AIRBAG label sewn into the outboard side of the seats.

This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains (SABICs) located above the side windows. Thetrim covering the SABICs is labeledSRS AIRBAG or AIRBAG. The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or complete ejection of vehicle occupants through side windows in certain rollover or side impact events.

The SABICs and SABs (“Side Air Bags”) are designed to activate in certain side impacts and certain rollover events. The Occupant Restraint Controller (“ORC”) determines whether the deployment of the SideAir Bags in aparticular side impact orrolloverevent is appropriate, based on the severity and type of collision. Vehicle damage by itself is not a good indicator of whether or not Side Air Bags should have deployed.
