INTRODUCTION
Dear Customer, congratulations on selecting your new
vehicle. Be assured that it represents precision workmanship, distinctive styling, and high quality.
This is a specialized utility vehicle. It can go places and
perform tasks that are not intended for conventional
passenger vehicles. It handles and maneuvers differently
from many passenger vehicles, both on-road and off-road, so
take time to become familiar with your vehicle. If equipped,
the two-wheel drive version of this vehicle is designed for
on-road use only. It is not intended for off-road driving or
use in other severe conditions suited for a four-wheel drive
vehicle. Before you start to operate this vehicle, read the
Owner’s Manual. Be sure you are familiar with all vehicle
controls, particularly those used for braking, steering, transmission, and transfer case operation. Learn how your vehicle
handles on different road surfaces. Your driving skills will
improve with experience. When driving off-road, or operating the vehicle, don’t overload the vehicle or expect the
vehicle to overcome the natural laws of physics. Always
observe federal, state, provincial and local laws wherever
you drive. As with other vehicles of this type, failure to
operate this vehicle correctly may result in loss of control or
a collision. Refer to “Driving Tips” in “Starting and Operating” for further information.
This Owner’s Manual has been prepared with the assistance
of service and engineering specialists to acquaint you with
the operation and maintenance of your vehicle. It is supplemented by Warranty Information, and customer-oriented
documents. Within this information, you will find a description of the services that FCA US LLC offers to its customers,
the vehicle’s warranty coverage, and the details of the terms
and conditions for maintaining its validity. Please take the
time to read all of these publications carefully before driving
your vehicle for the first time. Following the instructions,
recommendations, tips, and important warnings in this
manual will help assure safe and enjoyable operation of your
vehicle.
This Owner’s Manual describes all versions of this vehicle.
Options and equipment dedicated to specific markets or
versions are not expressly indicated in the text. Therefore,
you should only consider the information which is related to
the trim level, engine, and version that you have purchased.

tion that may or may not be applicable to your vehicle will be
identified with the wording “If Equipped”. All data
contained in this publication are intended to help you use
your vehicle in the best possible way. FCA US LLC aims
towards a constant improvement of the vehicles produced.
For this reason, it reserves the right to make changes to the
model described for technical and/or commercial reasons.

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Essential Information
Consult the Table of Contents to determine which section
contains the information you desire.
Since the specification of your vehicle depends on the items
of equipment ordered, certain descriptions and illustrations
may differ from your vehicle's equipment.
The detailed Index at the back of this Owner's Manual
contains a complete listing of all subjects.
Symbols
Some vehicle components have colored labels whose
symbols indicate precautions to be observed when using this
component. Refer to “Warning Lights and Messages” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for further
information on the symbols used in your vehicle.
ROLLOVER WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than
other types of vehicles. This vehicle has a higher ground
clearance and a higher center of gravity than many
passenger vehicles. It is capable of performing better in a
wide variety of off-road applications. Driven in an unsafe
manner, all vehicles can go out of control. Because of the
higher center of gravity, if this vehicle is out of control, it may
roll over while some other vehicles may not.
Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneuvers, or other
unsafe driving actions that can cause loss of vehicle control.
Failure to operate this vehicle safely may result in a collision,
rollover of the vehicle, and severe or fatal injury. Drive
carefully.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
INTRODUCTION17
Rollover Warning Label
Failure to use the driver and passenger seat belts provided is
a major cause of severe or fatal injury. In fact, the U.S.
government notes that the universal use of existing seat belts
could cut the highway death toll by 10,000 or more each year
and could reduce disabling injuries by two million annually.
In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more
likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle
up.
This Owner’s Manual contains WARNINGS against operating procedures that could result in a collision, bodily injury
and/or death. It also contains CAUTIONS against procedures that could result in damage to your vehicle. If you do
not read this entire Owner’s Manual, you may miss
important information. Observe all Warnings and Cautions.
VEHICLE MODIFICATIONS/ALTERATIONS
WARNING!
Any modifications or alterations to this vehicle could
seriously affect its roadworthiness and safety and may
lead to a collision resulting in serious injury or death.

SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents unauthorized
vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The system does
not need to be armed or activated. Operation is automatic,
regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked.
The system uses a key fob, keyless push button ignition and
a Radio Frequency (RF) receiver to prevent unauthorized
vehicle operation. Therefore, only key fobs that are
programmed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate
the vehicle. The system will not allow the engine to crank if
an invalid key fob is used to start and operate the vehicle.
The system will shut the engine off in two seconds if an
invalid key fob is used to start the engine.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON/RUN position,
the vehicle security light will turn on for three seconds for a
bulb check. If the light remains on after the bulb check, it
indicates that there is a problem with the electronics. In addition, if the light begins to flash after the bulb check, it indicates that someone used an invalid key fob to start the
engine. Either of these conditions will result in the engine
being shut off after two seconds.
If the vehicle security light turns on during normal vehicle
operation (vehicle running for longer than 10 seconds), it
indicates that there is a fault in the electronics. Should this
occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by an
authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not compatible
with some aftermarket remote starting systems. Use of
these systems may result in vehicle starting problems
and loss of security protection.
All of the key fobs provided with your new vehicle have
been programmed to the vehicle electronics.

NOTE:
Only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle electronics
can be used to start and operate the vehicle. Once a key fob
is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be programmed to any
other vehicle.
CAUTION!
• Always remove the key fobs from the vehicle and lock
all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
• For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go —
Ignition, always remember to place the ignition in the
OFF position.
NOTE:
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an authorized

fob to the vehicle electronics. A blank key fob is one that has
never been programmed.
When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer system serviced,
bring all vehicle keys with you to an authorized dealer.
Irregular Operation
The system uses a key fob, an Ignition Node Module, Keyless
Push Button Ignition and a Radio Frequency (RF) receiver to
prevent unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore, only key
fobs that are programmed to the vehicle can be used to start
and operate the vehicle. The system will not allow the engine
to crank if an invalid key fob is used to start and operate the
vehicle. The system will shut the engine off in two seconds if
an invalid key fob is used to start the engine.
NOTE:
A key fob that has not been programmed is also considered
an invalid key.
During normal operation, after placing the keyless ignition
in the ON/RUN position, the Vehicle Security Light will
turn on for three seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains
on after the bulb check, it indicates that there is a problem
with the electronics. In addition, if the light begins to flash
after the bulb check, it indicates that someone used an
invalid key fob to try to start the engine. Either of these
conditions will result in the engine being shut off after two
seconds.

vehicle. However, you can create conditions where the
system will give you a false alarm. If one of the previously
described arming sequences has occurred, the vehicle security alarm will arm, regardless of whether you are in the
vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicle and open a door,
the alarm will sound. If this occurs, disarm the vehicle security alarm.
If the vehicle security alarm is armed and the battery
becomes disconnected, the vehicle security alarm will
remain armed when the battery is reconnected; the exterior
lights will flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the vehicle security alarm.
Rearming Of The System
If something triggers the alarm, and no action is taken to
disarm it, the vehicle security alarm will turn the horn off
after 29 seconds, five seconds between cycles, up to eight
cycles if the trigger remains active and the vehicle security
alarm will rearm itself.
Security System Manual Override
The vehicle security alarm will not arm if you lock the doors
using the manual door lock.

HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to reduce the risk of injury by
restricting head movement in the event of a rear-impact.
Head restraints should be adjusted so that the top of the head
restraint is located above the top of your ear.
WARNING!
• All occupants, including the driver, should not operate
a vehicle or sit in a vehicle’s seat until the head
restraints are placed in their proper positions in order
to minimize the risk of neck injury in the event of a
crash.
• Head restraints should never be adjusted while the
vehicle is in motion. Driving a vehicle with the head
restraints improperly adjusted or removed could cause
serious injury or death in the event of a collision.
Supplemental Active Head Restraints — Front Seats
Active Head Restraints (AHR) are passive, deployable
components, and vehicles with this equipment cannot be
readily identified by any markings, only through visual
inspection of the head restraint. The AHRs will be split in
two halves, with the front half being soft foam and trim, the
back half being decorative plastic.
When AHRs deploy during a rear impact, the front half of
the head restraint extends forward to reduce the gap
between the back of the occupant’s head and the AHR. This
system is design to reduce the risk of injury to the driver or
front passenger in certain types of rear impacts. Refer to
“Occupant Restraint Systems” in “Safety” for further
information.
