INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on selecting your new Chrysler
Group LLC vehicle. Be assured that it repre-
sents precision workmanship, distinctive styl-
ing, and high quality - all essentials that are
traditional to our vehicles.
This is a specialized utility vehicle designed for
both on-road and off-road use. It can go places
and perform tasks for which conventional two–
wheel drive vehicles were not intended. It
handles and maneuvers differently from many
passenger cars both on-road and off-road, so
take time to become familiar with your vehicle.
Before you start to drive this vehicle, read the
Owner’s Manual and all the Supplements. Be
sure you are familiar with all vehicle controls,
particularly those used for braking, steering,
and transmission and transfer case shifting.
Learn how your vehicle handles on different
road surfaces. Your driving skills will improve
with experience, but as in driving any vehicle,
take it easy as you begin. When driving off-road
or working the vehicle, don’t overload it or
expect it to overcome the forces of nature.
Always observe 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 an accident. Be sure to read the
“On-Road/ Off-Road Driving Tips” in Section 5
of this manual.
NOTE:
After you read the manual, it should be
stored in the vehicle for convenient refer-
encing and remain with the vehicle when
sold so that the new owner will be aware of
all safety warnings.
Failure to operate this vehicle correctly may
result in loss of control or an accident.
Operating this vehicle at excessive speeds or
while intoxicated may result in loss of control,
collision with other vehicles or objects, going
off the road, or overturning; any of which may
lead to serious injury or death. Also, failure to
use seat belts subjects the driver and passen-
gers to a greater risk of injury or death.
To keep your vehicle running at its best, have
your vehicle serviced at recommended inter-
vals by an authorized dealer or distributor who
has the qualified personnel, special tools and
equipment to perform all service.
The manufacturer and its distributors are vitally
interested in your complete satisfaction with
this vehicle. If you encounter a service or
warranty problem which is not resolved to your
satisfaction, discuss the matter with your autho-
rized dealer or distributor’s management.
Your authorized dealer or distributor will be
happy to assist you with any questions about
your vehicle.
ROLLOVER WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher roll-
over rate than other types of vehicles. This
vehicle has a higher ground clearance and a
higher center of gravity than many passenger
cars. 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
when some other vehicles may not.
