Car Seat With Head Restraint Folded

Locating The LATCH Anchorages

The lower anchorages are round bars that are

found at the rear of the seat cushion where it

meets the seatback. They are just visible when

you lean into the rear seat to install the child

restraint. You will easily feel them if you run your finger

along the gap between the seatback and seat cushion. If

your vehicle is equipped with anchorage symbols on the

seatback, they will be located just above the lower

anchorages.

Can a child seat be installed in the center position using the inner

LATCH lower anchorages from the outboard seating positions?

Two Door Models – No Center

Seating Position

Four Door Models – Yes

Four Door Only: You can install child restraints with flexible lower

anchors in the center position. The inner anchorages are 18.5 inches

(484 mm) apart. Do not install child restraints with rigid lower anchors

in the center position.

Can two child restraints be attached using a common lower LATCH

anchorage?

No

Never “share” a LATCH anchorage with two or more child restraints. If

the center position does not have dedicated LATCH lower anchorages,

use the seat belt to install a child seat in the center position next to a

child seat using the LATCH anchorages in an outboard position.

Can the rear-facing child restraint touch the back of the front

passenger seat?

Yes

The child seat may touch the back of the front passenger seat if the

child restraint manufacturer also allows contact. See your child

restraint owner’s manual for more information.

Do not install child restraints with rigid lower attachments

in the center seating position. Only install this type of child

restraint in the outboard seating positions. Child restraints

with flexible, webbing mounted lower attachments can be

installed in any rear seating position.

WARNING!

This vehicle does not have a center seating position. Do

not use the center lower LATCH anchorages to install a

child seat in the center of the back seat.

WARNING!

Never use the same lower anchorage to attach more

than one child restraint. If you are installing

LATCH-compatible child restraints next to each other,

you must use the seat belt for the center position. You

can then use either the LATCH anchors or the vehicle’s

seat belt for installing child seats in the outboard

positions.
Please see

Ú

page 284 for typical installation

instructions.

284

SAFETY

Always follow the directions of the child restraint

manufacturer when installing your child restraint. Not all

child restraint systems will be installed as described here.

To Install A LATCH-Compatible Child

Restraint

If the selected seating position has a Switchable

Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) seat belt, stow the seat

belt, following the instructions below. See

Ú

page 284 to

check what type of seat belt each seating position has.
1. Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the

tether strap of the child seat so that you can more

easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle

anchorages.

2. Place the child seat between the lower anchorages

for that seating position. If the second row seat can

be reclined, you may recline the seat and/or raise the

head restraint (if adjustable) to get a better fit. If the

rear seat can be moved forward and rearward in the

vehicle, you may wish to move it to its rear-most

position to make room for the child seat. You may

also move the front seat forward to allow more room

for the child seat.

3. Attach the lower hooks or connectors of the child

restraint to the lower anchorages in the selected

seating position.

4. If the child restraint has a tether strap, connect it to

the top tether anchorage. See

Ú

page 287 for

directions to attach a tether anchor.

5. Tighten all of the straps as you push the child

restraint rearward and downward into the seat.

Remove slack in the straps according to the child

restraint manufacturer’s instructions.

6. Test that the child restraint is installed tightly by

pulling back and forth on the child seat at the belt

path. It should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm)

in any direction.

How To Stow An Unused Switchable-ALR

(ALR) Seat Belt:

When using the LATCH attaching system to install a child

restraint, stow all ALR seat belts that are not being used

by other occupants or being used to secure child

restraints. An unused belt could injure a child if they play

with it and accidentally lock the seat belt retractor. Before

installing a child restraint using the LATCH system, buckle

the seat belt behind the child restraint and out of the

child’s reach. If the buckled seat belt interferes with the

child restraint installation, instead of buckling it behind

the child restraint, route the seat belt through the child

restraint belt path and then buckle it. Do not lock the seat

belt. Remind all children in the vehicle that the seat belts

are not toys and that they should not play with them.

Installing Child Restraints Using The

Vehicle Seat Belt

Child restraint systems are designed to be secured in

vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap/

shoulder belt.

The seat belts in the passenger seating positions are

equipped with a Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor

(ALR) that is designed to keep the lap portion of the seat

belt tight around the child restraint so that it is not

necessary to use a locking clip. The ALR retractor can be

“switched” into a locked mode by pulling all of the webbing

out of the retractor and then letting the webbing retract

back into the retractor. If it is locked, the ALR will make a

clicking noise while the webbing is pulled back into the

retractor.
Refer to the “Automatic Locking Mode” description in

“Switchable Automatic Locking Retractors (ALR)”

Ú

page 265 for additional information on ALR.

Please see the table below and the following sections for

more information.

WARNING!

Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH

anchorages can lead to failure of the restraint. The

child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the child

restraint manufacturer’s directions exactly when

installing an infant or child restraint.

Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand

only those loads imposed by correctly-fitted child

restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be

used for adult seat belts, harnesses, or for attaching

other items or equipment to the vehicle.

WARNING!

Improper installation or failure to properly secure a

child restraint can lead to failure of the restraint. The

child could be badly injured or killed.

Car Seat With Head Restraint Folded

Installing A Child Restraint With A

Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor

(ALR):

Child restraint systems are designed to be secured in

vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap/

shoulder belt.

1. Place the child seat in the center of the seating

position. If the second row seat can be reclined, you

may recline the seat and/or raise the head restraint

(if adjustable) to get a better fit. If the rear seat can

be moved forward and rearward in the vehicle, you

may wish to move it to its rear-most position to make

room for the child seat. You may also move the front

seat forward to allow more room for the child seat.

2. Pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the

retractor to pass it through the belt path of the child

restraint. Do not twist the belt webbing in the belt

path.

3. Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a

“click.”

4. Pull on the webbing to make the lap portion tight

against the child seat.

5. To lock the seat belt, pull down on the shoulder part

of the belt until you have pulled all the seat belt

webbing out of the retractor. Then, allow the webbing

to retract back into the retractor. As the webbing

retracts, you will hear a clicking sound. This means

the seat belt is now in the Automatic Locking mode.

6. Try to pull the webbing out of the retractor. If it is

locked, you should not be able to pull out any

webbing. If the retractor is not locked, repeat step 5.

7. Finally, pull up on any excess webbing to tighten the

lap portion around the child restraint while you push

the child restraint rearward and downward into the

vehicle seat.

8. If the child restraint has a top tether strap and the

seating position has a top tether anchorage, connect

the tether strap to the anchorage and tighten the

tether strap. See

Ú

page 287 for directions to attach

a tether anchor.

9. Test that the child restraint is installed tightly by

pulling back and forth on the child seat at the belt

path. It should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm)

in any direction.

Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the

belt occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.

WARNING!

Always make sure the head restraint is in its upright

position when the seat is to be used by an occupant

who is not in a child restraint. Sitting in a seat with the

head restraint in its lowered position could result in

serious injury or death in a collision.

Installing Child Restraints Using The Top

Tether Anchorage

1. Look behind the seating position where you plan to

install the child restraint to find the tether

anchorage. If the seat can be moved, you may need

to move the seat forward to provide better access to

the tether anchorage. If there is no top tether

anchorage for that seating position, move the child

restraint to another position in the vehicle if one is

available.

2. Route the tether strap to provide the most direct path

for the strap between the anchor and the child seat.

If your vehicle is equipped with adjustable rear head

restraints, raise the head restraint, and where

possible, route the tether strap under the head

restraint and between the two posts. If not possible,

lower the head restraint and pass the tether strap

around the outboard side of the head restraint.

3. Attach the tether strap hook of the child restraint to

the top tether anchorage as shown in the diagram.

4. Remove slack in the tether strap according to the

child restraint manufacturer’s instructions.

WARNING!

Do not attach a tether strap for a rear-facing car seat to

any location in front of the car seat, including the seat

frame or a tether anchorage. Only attach the tether

strap of a rear-facing car seat to the tether anchorage

that is approved for that seating position, located

behind the top of the vehicle seat. For the location of

approved tether anchorages in your vehicle, see

Ú

page 280.

WARNING!

An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to

increased head motion and possible injury to the

child. Use only the anchorage position directly behind

the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether

strap.

If your vehicle is equipped with a split rear seat,

make sure the tether strap does not slip into the

opening between the seatbacks as you remove slack

in the strap.

Floor Mat Safety Information

Always use floor mats designed to fit your vehicle. Only use

a floor mat that does not interfere with the operation of the

pedal assemblies. Only use a floor mat that is securely

attached using the floor mat fasteners so it cannot slip out

of position and interfere with the pedal assemblies or

impair safe operation of your vehicle in other ways.

WARNING!

An improperly attached, damaged, folded, or stacked

floor mat, or damaged floor mat fasteners may cause

your floor mat to interfere with the accelerator, brake, or

clutch pedals and cause a loss of vehicle control. To

prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:

ALWAYS securely attach your floor mat

using the floor mat fasteners. DO NOT install

your floor mat upside down or turn your floor

mat over. Lightly pull to confirm mat is

secured using the floor mat fasteners on a regular basis.

ALWAYS REMOVE THE EXISTING FLOOR

MAT FROM THE VEHICLE before installing

any other floor mat. NEVER install or stack an

additional floor mat on top of an existing floor

mat.

ONLY install floor mats designed to fit your vehicle.

NEVER install a floor mat that cannot be properly

attached and secured to your vehicle. If a floor mat

needs to be replaced, only use a FCA approved floor

mat for the specific make, model, and year of your

vehicle.

ONLY use the driver’s side floor mat on the driver’s

side floor area. To check for interference, with the

vehicle properly parked with the engine off, fully

depress the accelerator, the brake, and the clutch

pedal (if present) to check for interference. If your

floor mat interferes with the operation of any pedal, or

is not secure to the floor, remove the floor mat from

the vehicle and place the floor mat in your trunk.

ONLY use the passenger’s side floor mat on the

passenger’s side floor area.

ALWAYS make sure objects cannot fall or slide into

the driver’s side floor area when the vehicle is

moving. Objects can become trapped under acceler

-

ator, brake, or clutch pedals and could cause a loss

of vehicle control.

NEVER place any objects under the floor mat (e.g.,

towels, keys, etc.). These objects could change the

position of the floor mat and may cause interference

with the accelerator, brake, or clutch pedals.

If the vehicle carpet has been removed and

re-installed, always properly attach carpet to the floor

and check the floor mat fasteners are secure to the

vehicle carpet. Fully depress each pedal to check for

interference with the accelerator, brake, or clutch

pedals then re-install the floor mats.

It is recommended to only use mild soap and water

to clean your floor mats. After cleaning, always check

your floor mat has been properly installed and is

secured to your vehicle using the floor mat fasteners

by lightly pulling mat.

The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into

the vehicle body is a properly maintained engine exhaust

system.
Whenever a change is noticed in the sound of the exhaust

system, when exhaust fumes can be detected inside the

vehicle, or when the underside or rear of the vehicle is

damaged, have an authorized dealer inspect the complete

exhaust system and adjacent body areas for broken,

damaged, deteriorated, or mispositioned parts. Open

seams or loose connections could permit exhaust fumes

to seep into the passenger compartment. In addition,

inspect the exhaust system each time the vehicle is raised

for lubrication or oil change. Replace as required.

WARNING!

Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon

monoxide (CO), which is colorless and odorless.

Breathing it can make you unconscious and can

eventually poison you. To avoid breathing (CO), follow

these safety tips:

Do not run the engine in a closed garage or in

confined areas any longer than needed to move your

vehicle in or out of the area.

If you are required to drive with the trunk/liftgate/

rear doors open, make sure that all windows are

closed and the climate control BLOWER switch is set

at high speed. DO NOT use the recirculation mode.

If it is necessary to sit in a parked vehicle with the

engine running, adjust your heating or cooling

controls to force outside air into the vehicle. Set the

blower at high speed.

WARNING!

Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases is deadly.

Follow the precautions below to prevent carbon

monoxide poisoning:

Do not inhale exhaust gases. They contain carbon

monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas, which can

kill. Never run the engine in a closed area, such as a

garage, and never sit in a parked vehicle with the

engine running for an extended period. If the vehicle

is stopped in an open area with the engine running

for more than a short period, adjust the ventilation

system to force fresh, outside air into the vehicle.

Guard against carbon monoxide with proper mainte

-

nance. Have the exhaust system inspected every

time the vehicle is raised. Have any abnormal condi

Vehicles sold in Mexico DO NOT have SOS Call system

capabilities.
SOS or other emergency line operators in Mexico may not

answer or respond to SOS system calls.
If the SOS Call system detects a malfunction, any of the

following may occur at the time the malfunction is

detected, and at the beginning of each ignition cycle:

The light located within the ASSIST and SOS buttons

will continuously illuminate red.

The Device Screen will display the following message

“Vehicle device requires service. Please contact an

authorized dealer.”

An In-Vehicle Audio message will state “Vehicle device

requires service. Please contact an authorized dealer.”

Even if the SOS Call system is fully functional, factors

beyond FCA US LLC’s control may prevent or stop the SOS

Call system operation. These include, but are not limited

to, the following factors:

The ignition is in the OFF position

The vehicle’s electrical systems are not intact

The SOS Call system software and/or hardware are

damaged during a crash

The vehicle battery loses power or becomes discon

-

nected during a vehicle crash

LTE (voice/data) or 4G (data) network and/or Global

Positioning Satellite signals are unavailable or

obstructed

Equipment malfunction at the SOS operator facility

Operator error by the SOS operator

LTE (voice/data) or 4G (data) network congestion

Weather

Buildings, structures, geographic terrain, or tunnels

NOTE:

Your vehicle may be transmitting data as authorized by

the subscriber.

Never place anything on or near the vehicle’s LTE

(voice/data) or 4G (data) and GPS antennas. You could

prevent LTE (voice/data) or 4G (data) and GPS signal

reception, which can prevent your vehicle from placing

an emergency call. An operable LTE (voice/data) or 4G

(data) network connection and a GPS signal is required

for the SOS Call system to function properly.

NOTE:

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the

party responsible for compliance could void the user's

authority to operate the equipment.
Automatic SOS — If Equipped
Automatic SOS is a hands-free safety service that can

immediately connect you with help in the event that your

vehicle’s airbags deploy. Please refer to your provided

radio supplement for complete information.

The Occupant Restraint Control module turns on the

air bag Warning Light on the instrument panel if a

malfunction in any part of the system is detected. If

the Air Bag Warning Light is illuminated, have an

authorized dealer service the Occupant Restraint

Control system immediately.

road to avoid the danger of being hit when operating

the jack or changing the wheel.

Being under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The

vehicle could slip off the jack and fall on you. You

could be crushed. Never put any part of your body

under a vehicle that is on a jack. If you need to get

under a raised vehicle, take it to a service center

where it can be raised on a lift.

Never start or run the engine while the vehicle is on

a jack.

The jack is designed to be used as a tool for changing

tires only. The jack should not be used to lift the

vehicle for service purposes. The vehicle should be
