Autostick Paddle Shifters When the gear selector is in the DRIVE position, the transmission will operate automatically, shift- ing between the eight available gears. To engage AutoStick, tap one of the steering wheel-mounted AutoStick Paddle Shifters (+/–). Tapping (–) to enter AutoStick will downshift the transmission to the next lower gear while using (+) to enter AutoStick will retain the current gear. When AutoStick is active, the current transmis- sion gear is displayed in the instrument cluster. In AutoStick, the transmission will shift up or down when (+/–) is selected by the driver (using the shift paddles) unless an engine lugging or overspeed condition would result. It will remain in the selected gear until another upshift or down- shift is chosen, except as described below: • In AutoStick, the transmission will remain in the selected gear even when maximum engine speed is reached. The transmission will upshift only when commanded by the driver. • The transmission will automatically downshift as the vehicle slows (to prevent engine lugging) and will display the current gear. • The transmission will automatically downshift to first gear when coming to a stop. After a stop, the driver should upshift (+) the transmission as the vehicle is accelerated. • You can start out in first or second gear. Tap- ping (+) (at a stop) will allow starting in second gear. Starting out in second gear is helpful in snowy or icy conditions. • The system will ignore an attempt to upshift at too low of a vehicle speed. • Transmission shifting will be more noticeable when paddle shift mode is engaged.

STOP/START Off Switch

• Cabin heating or cooling is in process and an

acceptable cabin temperature has not been achieved. • The transmission is not in a forward gear. • The vehicle has not reached a speed of 5 mph (8 km/h) after the previous autostop. • Many of these reasons are displayed as a STOP/ START message in the cluster display within the STOP/START section. The system must be in the “STOP/ START READY” state to au- tostop. To access the STOP/START section of the cluster display, use the display controls. Refer to the “Starting and Operating” section of your Owner’s Manual for a complete list of possible events in which the engine does not autostop. How do I know I am in an autostop? • The engine will shut down, the tachometer will move to the zero position and the STOP/START telltale will illuminate in the instrument cluster. How do I start the engine while in an autostop? • While in a forward gear, the engine will start when the brake pedal is released or the throttle pedal is depressed. The transmission will auto- matically re-engage upon engine restart. NOTE: The system will automatically revert to ON at every ignition cycle. Sport Mode Your vehicle is equipped with a Sport Mode fea- ture. This mode is a configuration set up for enthusiast driving. The engine, transmission, and steering systems are all set to their SPORT set- tings. Sport Mode will provide improved throttle response and modified shifting for an enhanced driving experience, as well the greatest amount of steering feel. This mode may be activated and deactivated by pushing the Sport button on the instrument panel switch bank. Electric Power Steering (EPS) The electric power steering system will give you good vehicle response and increased ease of ma- neuverability in tight spaces. The system will vary its assistance to provide light efforts while parking and good feel while driving. If the electric steering system experiences a fault that prevents it from providing assistance, you will still have the ability to steer the vehicle manually. Alternate electric power steering efforts can be selected through the Uconnect System. For further information, and applicable warnings and cautions, please refer to the Owner’s Manual at www.dodge.com/en/owners/manuals.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) —

If Equipped If your vehicle is equipped with Adaptive Cruise Control, the controls operate exactly the same as the standard cruise control, with one difference. You can set a specified distance you would like to maintain between you and the vehicle in front of you. • If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC will apply limited braking or acceleration auto- matically to maintain a preset following dis- tance while matching the speed of the vehicle ahead. • If the sensor does not detect a vehicle directly ahead of you, it functions like a standard cruise control system, maintaining the speed you set. For further information and applicable warnings and cautions, please refer to your Owner’s Manual at www.dodge.com/en/owners/manuals. Forward Collision Warning With Mitigation — If Equipped The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system pro- vides the driver with active braking, audible and visual warnings (within the instrument cluster dis- play) and may apply a brake jerk to warn the driver when it detects a potential frontal collision. The warnings and limited braking are intended to pro- vide the driver with enough time to react and avoid or mitigate the potential collision. FCW monitors the information from the forward- looking sensor, as well as the Electronic Brake Controller (EBC) and wheel speed sensors, to calculate a probable collision. When the system determines that a collision is probable, a warning message (both audible and visual) will be dis- played within the cluster display along with a brake jerk warning (previously enabled in the Uconnect Settings). When the system senses the Adaptive Cruise Switches 1 — Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) On/Off 2 — Distance Setting – Decrease 3 — Distance Setting – Increase SAFETY FEATURES

driver applying the brakes to avoid a probable

collision, additional brake force will be provided to the vehicle. When the system determines a colli- sion with the vehicle in front of you is no longer probable, the warning message will be deacti- vated. NOTE: The FCW feature can be customized and turned off through the Uconnect System touchscreen. For further information and applicable warnings and cautions, please refer to your Owner’s Manual at www.dodge.com/en/owners/manuals. LaneSense — If Equipped The LaneSense system is operational at speeds above 37 mph (60 km/h) and below 112 mph (180 km/h). The LaneSense system uses a forward looking camera to detect lane markings and mea- sure vehicle position within the lane boundaries. Turning LaneSense ON Or OFF The default status of LaneSense is “OFF”. The LaneSense button is located on the switch panel below the Uconnect display. LaneSense Warning Message The LaneSense system will indicate the current lane drift condition through the instrument cluster display. The instrument cluster display will pro- vide a visual warning depicting the unintentional lane departure. When both lane markings are detected and the driver unintentionally drifts out of the lane (no turn signal applied), the LaneSense system provides a haptic warning in the form of torque applied to the steering wheel to prompt the driver to remain within the lane boundaries. The driver may manu- ally override the haptic warning by applying torque into the steering wheel at any time. When only a single lane marking is detected and the driver unintentionally drifts across the lane marking (no turn signal applied), the LaneSense system pro- vides a visual warning through the instrument cluster display to prompt the driver to remain within the lane. When only a single lane marking is detected, a haptic (torque) warning will not be provided. NOTE: The LaneSense system can be customized and turned off through the Uconnect System touch- screen. For further information and applicable warnings and cautions, please refer to your Owner’s Manual at www.dodge.com/en/owners/manuals.

Parksense Rear Park Assist

The ParkSense Rear Park Assist system provides visual and audible indications of the distance between the rear fascia and a detected obstacle when backing up, e.g. during a parking maneuver. The vehicle brakes may be automatically applied and released when performing a reverse parking maneuver if the system detects a possible colli- sion with an obstacle. NOTE: The automatic braking function can be enabled/ disabled from the Customer-Programmable Fea- tures section of the Uconnect System. The four ParkSense sensors, located in the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area behind the ve- hicle that is within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors can detect obstacles from approxi- mately 12 inches (30 cm) up to 79 inches (200 cm) from the rear bumper while the vehicle is in REVERSE, a warning will appear in the instrument cluster display and a chime will sound (when Sound and Display is selected from the Customer Programmable Features section of the Uconnect System screen). As the vehicle moves closer to the object, the chime rate will change from single 1/2 second tone, to slow, to fast, to continuous. Rear Back-Up Camera — If Equipped Your vehicle may be equipped with the ParkView Rear Back Up Camera that allows you to see an on-screen image of the rear surroundings of your vehicle whenever the gear selector is put into REVERSE. The ParkView Rear Back-Up Camera image will be displayed on the Uconnect Display, located on the center stack of the instrument panel. The ParkView Rear Back Up Camera is located on the rear of the vehicle above the rear license plate. PARKSENSE PARKVIEW

Rear Camera — Viewing At Speed
