belt is unbuckled while traveling at speeds
greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), BeltAlert will
provide both audio and visual notification.
The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is
not active when the outboard front passenger
seat is unoccupied. BeltAlert may be triggered
when an animal or heavy object is on the
outboard front passenger seat or when the seat
is folded flat (if equipped). It is recommended
that pets be restrained in the rear seat (if
equipped) in pet harnesses or pet carriers that
are secured by seat belts, and cargo is properly
stowed.
BeltAlert can be activated or deactivated by
your authorized dealer. FCA International Op-
erations LLC does not recommend deactivating
BeltAlert.
NOTE:
If BeltAlert has been deactivated, the Seat
Belt Reminder Light will continue to illumi-
nate while the driver’s or outboard front
passenger’s (if equipped with BeltAlert) seat
belt remains unbuckled.
Lap/Shoulder Belts
All seating positions in your vehicle are
equipped with lap/shoulder belts.
The seat belt webbing retractor will lock only
during very sudden stops or collisions. This
feature allows the shoulder part of the seat belt
to move freely with you under normal condi-
tions. However, in a collision the seat belt will
lock and reduce your risk of striking the inside of
the vehicle or being thrown out of the vehicle.
WARNING!
•
Relying on the air bags alone could lead to
more severe injuries in a collision. The air
bags work with your seat belt to restrain
you properly. In some collisions, the air
bags won’t deploy at all. Always wear your
seat belt even though you have air bags.

WARNING! (Continued)
•
In a collision, you and your passengers
can suffer much greater injuries if you are
not properly buckled up. You can strike the
interior of your vehicle or other passen-
gers, or you can be thrown out of the
vehicle. Always be sure you and others in
your vehicle are buckled up properly.
•
It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area,
inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision,
people riding in these areas are more likely
to be seriously injured or killed.
•
Do not allow people to ride in any area of
your vehicle that is not equipped with seats
and seat belts.
•
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a
seat and using a seat belt properly.
