SAFETY GUIDELINES

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.

WARNING!

Please read and follow these safety precautions.
Failure to do so may result in injury or property
damage.

•

Glance at the screen only when necessary and 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 prohibits the Front Seat DVD
Viewer. As a result, it may be disabled prior to delivery
to you. If you move to another state, you should
consult your dealer for the proper enable/disable
setting for your new state. Currently all states prohibit
front seat video viewers except for: Arkansas, Dela­ware, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Missis­sippi, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota and Ohio.

INTRODUCTION

this manual carefully. Note the safety precautions de­scribed in this manual. If you have any questions, please
contact the vehicle manufacturer or your authorized
dealer.

Generally recognized rules of radio technology were
maintained during the development and manufacture of

5

the radio system. When using this product, be aware of
state/province-specific norms and guidelines.

Visit http://www.chrysler.com/owners for updates, ad­ditional information, compatible phones, etc.

System Care

Software Update

Both navigation data and Gracenote威 data are software
updatable. Visit http://www.chrysler.com/owners or
contact your authorized dealer for the latest available
software.

Safe Usage of the Radio System

Read all instructions in this manual carefully before
using your radio system to ensure proper usage!

Your radio is a sophisticated electronic device. Do not let
young children use your radio.

6

Permanent hearing loss may occur if you play your music
or the radio at loud volumes. Exercise caution when
setting the volume on your radio.

Driving is a complex activity that requires your full
attention. If you’re engaged in driving or any activity that
requires your full attention, we recommend that you not
use your radio.

NOTE: Many features of this radio are speed depen­dent. For your own safety, it is not possible to use the
touch screen 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.

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

Do not use a USB device which will interfere with the
operation of opening the display.

Touch Screen

Do not touch the screen with any hard or sharp objects
(pen, USB stick, jewelry, etc.) which could scratch the
touch screen surface!

NOTE: It is possible to use a plastic stylus for press
screen enabled devices such as a PDA and Pocket PCs.

Do not spray any liquid or caustic chemicals directly on
the screen! Use a clean and dry micro fiber lens cleaning
cloth in order to clean the touch screen.

If necessary, use a lint-free cloth dampened with a
cleaning solution, such as isopropyl alcohol, or an iso­propyl alcohol and water solution ratio of 50:50. Be sure
to follow the solvent manufacturer’s precautions and
directions.

CD/DVD Drive

Do not insert any damaged, warped, scratched or dirty
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. Do not place items on the dash­board 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 satellite radio and SIRIUS Backseat
TV™ 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.

8

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.

NAVIGATION (Media Center 430N Only)

Safety Precautions and Important Information

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

WARNINGS

To prevent injury or fire, take the following precau­tions:

•

To prevent a short circuit, never put or leave any
metallic objects (such as coins or metal tools) inside the
unit.

•

Do not watch or fix your eyes on the unit’s display
when you are driving for any extended period.

•

Mounting and wiring this product requires skills and
experience. The mounting and wiring should be done
by professionals.

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

When navigating, carefully compare information dis­played on the navigation system to all available naviga­tion sources, including information from street signs,
visual sightings, and maps. For safety, always resolve any
discrepancies or questions before continuing navigation.
Always operate the vehicle in a safe manner.
Do not become distracted by the navigation system while
driving, and always be fully aware of all driving condi­tions. Minimize the amount of time spent viewing the
screen of the navigation system while driving, and use
voice prompts when possible.
Do not enter destinations, change settings, or access any
functions requiring prolonged use of the navigation

system controls while driving. Stop your vehicle in a safe
and legal manner before attempting such operations.
Keep the system volume at a low enough level to be able
to hear outside noises while driving. If you can no longer
hear outside noises, you may be unable to react ad­equately to the traffic situation.
This may cause accidents.
The navigation system will not display the correct cur­rent position of the vehicle the first time it is used after
purchase, or if the vehicle battery is disconnected. GPS
satellite signals will soon be received, however, and the
correct position will be displayed.
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, by metal objects, or by water getting
inside the unit.

requiring precise measurement of direction, distance,
location, or topography.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the
