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 was
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 drive 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 shifting.
Learn how your vehicle handles on different road surfaces.
Your driving skills will improve with experience. When
driving off-road, or working 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 the “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. In the attached Warranty Booklet you
will find a description of the services that FCA offers to its
customers, the Warranty Certificate 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. Any content introduced throughout the Owner’s Information, 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 aims at
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. For
further information, contact an authorized dealer.
If applicable, refer to the Owner’s Manual Supplement for
related information.
NOTE: After reviewing the Owner’s Information, it should
be stored in the vehicle for convenient referencing, and
remain with the vehicle when sold.
When it comes to service, remember that your authorized
dealer knows your vehicle best, has factory-trained technicians and genuine MOPAR® parts, and cares about your
satisfaction.
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.
INTRODUCTION 5
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.
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
1
6 INTRODUCTION
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.
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL

3 — Lock Button
4 — Remote Start Button
5 — Panic Button
WARNING!
Push the Mechanical Key Release Button only with the
key fob facing away from your body, especially your
eyes and objects that may be damaged, such as clothing.
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. The ignition
system consists of a key fob with Keyless Go and a
START/STOP push button ignition system. The Remote
Keyless Entry system consists of a key fob with a mechanical key and Keyless Enter-N-Go feature if equipped.
NOTE: The key fob may not be detected by the vehicle if it
is located next to a mobile phone, laptop or other electronic
device; these devices may block the key fob’s wireless
signal.
CAUTION!
The electrical components inside of the key fob may be
damaged if the key fob is subjected to strong electrical
shocks. In order to ensure complete efficiency of the
electronic devices inside of the key fob, avoid exposing
the key fob to direct sunlight.
The key fob allows you to lock or unlock the doors and
swing gate from distances up to approximately 66 ft (20 m)
by pressing the appropriate button on the fob. The key fob
does not need to be pointed at the vehicle to activate the
system.
NOTE: With the ignition in ON/RUN position and with
the vehicle doors open, the lock button will be disabled,
and only the unlock button will be enabled. All RKE
commands will be disabled once the vehicle begins moving
at 5 mph (8 km/h) or above.
Backup Mode Starting
In case the ignition switch does not change with the push
of a button, the key fob may have a low or fully depleted
battery. A low key fob battery can be verified by referring
to the instrument cluster, which will display directions to
follow.
NOTE: A low key fob battery condition may be indicated
by a message in the instrument cluster display, or by the
LED light on the key fob. If the LED key fob light no longer
illuminates from key fob button pushes, then the key fob
battery requires replacement.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 21
In this situation, a back up method can be used to operate
the ignition switch. Put the nose side of the key fob against
the ENGINE START/STOP button, and push to operate the
ignition switch.

will flash twice.
22 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
To Lock The Doors And Swing Gate
Push and release the lock button on the key fob to lock all
doors. The turn signals will flash, and the horn will chirp
once to acknowledge the lock signal.
Key Fob Battery Replacement

indicated on the vehicle’s instrument cluster, and the fob
LED will no longer illuminate with a button press.
The recommended replacement battery is CR2450.
NOTE: Perchlorate Material – special handling may apply.
See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
1. Remove the back cover of the fob by inserting a flatblade screw driver into the slot on the bottom of the fob.
Pry until the cover unsnaps being careful not to damage
the seal. Proceed counter-clockwise to pry the remaining
snaps until the battery cover can be removed.

Battery Replacement
3. Install the new battery into the key fob, making sure the
positive (+) side is facing up. Slide the battery until it is
seated securely below the tabs.
4. Reassemble the back cover making sure it is properly
aligned before snapping it back in place.
NOTE:
Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot
be repurposed and reprogrammed to another vehicle.
Request For Additional Key Fobs
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.
WARNING!
• Always remove the key fobs from the vehicle and
lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
• Always remember to place the ignition in the OFF
mode.
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an authorized
dealer. This procedure consists of programming a blank
