SAFETY GUIDELINES

WARNING!

ALWAYS drive safely with your hands on the
steering wheel. You have full responsibility and
assume all risks related to the use of the Uconnect
features and applications in this vehicle. Only use
Uconnect when it is safe to do so. Failure to do so
may result in an accident involving serious injury
or death.

Ensure that all persons read this manual carefully before
using the radio system. It contains instructions on how to
use the system in a safe and effective manner.

• Glance at the screen only when safe to do so. If
prolonged viewing of the screen is necessary, pull over
at a safe location.

• Stop use immediately if a problem occurs. Failure to
do so may cause injury or damage to the product.
Return it to your authorized dealer to repair.

• Make certain that the volume level of the system is set
to a level that still allows you to hear outside traffic
and emergency vehicles.

• The law in some states/provinces prohibits the Front
Seat DVD Viewer. As a result, it may be disabled prior
to delivery to you. If you move to another state/
provinces, you should consult your dealer for the
proper enable/disable setting for your new area.

CYBERSECURITY

Your vehicle may be a connected vehicle and may be
equipped with both wired and wireless networks. These
networks allow your vehicle to send and receive infor­mation. This information allows systems and features in
your vehicle to function properly.

Your vehicle may be equipped with certain security
features to reduce the risk of unauthorized and unlawful
access to vehicle systems and wireless communications.
Vehicle software technology continues to evolve over
time and FCA US LLC, working with its suppliers,

SAFETY GUIDELINES 5

evaluates and takes appropriate steps as needed. Similar
to a computer or other devices, your vehicle may require
software updates to improve the usability and perfor­mance of your systems or to reduce the potential risk of
unauthorized and unlawful access to your vehicle sys­tems.

The risk of unauthorized and unlawful access to your
vehicle systems may still exist, even if the most recent
version of vehicle software (such as Uconnect software) is
installed.

6 SAFETY GUIDELINES

WARNING!

• It is not possible to know or to predict all of the
possible outcomes if your vehicle’s systems are
breached. It may be possible that vehicle systems,
including safety related systems, could be im­paired or a loss of vehicle control could occur that
may result in an accident involving serious injury
or death.

• ONLY insert media (e.g., USB, SD card, or CD) into
your vehicle if it came from a trusted source. Media
of unknown origin could possibly contain mali­cious software, and if installed in your vehicle, it
may increase the possibility for vehicle systems to
be breached.

• As always, if you experience unusual vehicle be­havior, take your vehicle to your nearest authorized
dealer immediately.

NOTE:

• FCA or your dealer may contact you directly regarding
software updates.

• To help further improve vehicle security and minimize
the potential risk of a security breach, vehicle owners
should:

• Routinely check
www.driveuconnect.com/software-update

to

learn about available Uconnect software updates.

• Only connect and use trusted media devices (e.g.
personal mobile phones, USBs, CDs).

Privacy of any wireless and wired communications can­not be assured. Third parties may unlawfully intercept
information and private communications without your
consent. For further information, refer to “Onboard Di­agnostic System (OBD II) Cybersecurity” in “Maintaining
Your Vehicle” in your Owner ’s Manual on the DVD.

and it is not possible to use the touchscreen keyboard
while the vehicle is in motion.

Keep drinks, rain, and other sources of moisture away
from your radio. Besides damage to your radio, moisture
can cause electric shocks as with any electronic device.

NOTE: In a convertible vehicle, the system performance
may be compromised with the roof top down.

Connections

Never force any connector into the ports of your radio.
Make sure your connectors are the correct shape and size
before you connect.

INTRODUCTION 9

Any attached cable should be routed so that it will not
apply any pressure to the connection.

CDs or DVDs into the CD/DVD player.

Discs that have been modified with an adhesive label
should not be used in the CD/DVD player.

Do not insert more than one CD/DVD at a time into the
drive slot.

Do not insert anything other than the supported CD/
DVD formats. See the Disc Mode section in this manual
for information on supported CD/DVD formats.

GPS Navigation Antenna — If Equipped

The antenna for the navigation GPS system is mounted in
various locations (depending on the vehicle model)
within the dashboard or on the roof of the vehicle. Do not
place items on the dashboard or around the GPS antenna

location. Objects placed within the line of sight of the
antenna will decrease performance. Do not place items
directly on or above the antenna.

Satellite Radio Antenna — If Equipped

The antenna for the SiriusXM Satellite radio is mounted
on the roof of the vehicle. Do not place items on the roof
around the roof top antenna location. Objects placed
within the line of sight of the antenna will cause de­creased performance. Larger luggage items should be
placed as far from the antenna as possible. Do not place
items directly on or above the antenna.

Other Electronic Devices

You may bring other electronic devices into your vehicle
(e.g., PDA, iPod, laptop computer, etc.). Some of these
devices may cause electromagnetic interference with the
GPS. If a degradation in the navigation system is ob­served, turn the devices off, or keep them as far away
from the GPS antenna as possible.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION

WARNING!

ALWAYS drive safely with your hands on the
steering wheel. You have full responsibility and
assume all risks related to the use of the Uconnect
features and applications in this vehicle. Only use
Uconnect when it is safe to do so. Failure to do so
may result in an accident involving serious injury
or death.

WARNING

Read this information carefully before starting to operate
the navigation system and follow the instructions in this
manual. Neither the FCA US LLC nor Garmin shall be
liable for problems or accidents resulting from failure to
observe the instructions in this manual.

Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous
situations could result in an accident or collision result­ing in death or serious injury.

• Always drive safely. Only use the navigation features

in this vehicle when it is safe to do so. You accept full
responsibility for the use of the features in this vehicle.

• When navigating, carefully compare information dis-

played on the navigation system to all available navi­gation sources, including road signs, road closures,
road conditions, traffic congestion, weather condi­tions, and other factors that may affect safety while

driving. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies
before continuing navigation, and defer to posted road
signs and road conditions.

• The navigation system is designed to provide route
suggestions. It is not a replacement for driver atten­tiveness and good judgement. Do not follow route

suggestions if they suggest an unsafe or illegal
maneuver or would place the vehicle in an unsafe
situation.

• Be careful of the ambient temperature. Using the
navigation system at extreme temperatures can lead to
malfunction or damage. Also note that the unit can be
damaged by strong vibration, metal objects, or by
water getting inside the unit.

not attempt to use the navigation system for any purpose
requiring precise measurement of direction, distance,
location, or topography.
