SEATS The seating options available in this truck are the result of extensive customer research and evaluations.

WARNING!

It is extremely 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.

114 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

40-20-40 Front Seat

As the name implies, the seat is divided into 3 segments. The outboard seat portions are each 40% of the total width of the seat. The back of the center portion (20%) easily folds down to provide an armrest/center storage compartment (if equipped).

Each outboard seat is independently adjustable forward or backward and is equipped with a back recliner. The manual seat adjustment handle is found at the front edge of each seat cushion. Pull up on the handle and slide the seat to get the most comfortable position.

WARNING!

Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The sudden movement of the seat could cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not be properly adjusted and you could be injured. Adjust any seat only while the vehicle is parked.

Reclining Seats The recliner handle is on the outside of the seat cushion. Pull up on the handle to release the seat back and adjust for comfort.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 115

WARNING!

You can be seriously, even fatally injured riding in a seat with the seatback reclined. Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the shoulder belt is no longer resting against your chest. If you ride in this position, the shoulder harness will no longer be restraining you. In a collision you could slide under the seat belt and receive serious or fatal injuries. Recline in a seat only when the vehicle is parked.

Adjustable Head Restraints Head restraints can reduce the risk of whiplash injury in the event of impact from the rear. Pull up or push down on the restraints so that the upper edge is as high as practical, at least to the level of the ears.

122 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

open and the interior lights are on, rotating the dimmer control all the way down to the OFF detent will cause all the interior lights to go out. This is also known as the ⬙Party⬙ mode because it allows the doors to stay open for extended periods of time without discharging the vehi- cle’s battery. The brightness of the instrument panel lighting can be regulated by rotating the dimmer control up (brighter) or down (dimmer). When the headlights are ON you can supplement the brightness of the odometer, trip odom- eter, radio and overhead console by rotating the control up until you hear a click. This feature is termed the “Parade” mode and is useful when headlights are re- quired during the day. Club Cab/Quad Cab models may have an optional switched dome lamp that may be operated by pressing the lens.

Battery Saver To protect the life of your vehicle’s battery, Load Shed- ding is provided for both the interior and exterior lights. If the ignition is off and any door is left ajar for 10
minutes or the dimmer control is rotated upwards for 10
minutes, the interior lights will automatically turn off. If the headlamps remain on while the ignition is cycled off, the exterior lights will automatically turn off after 8
minutes. If the headlamps are turned on and left on for 8
minutes while the ignition is off, the exterior lights will automatically turn off. NOTE: Battery Saver mode is cancelled if the ignition is ON.

Headlamp Delay To aid in your exit, your vehicle is equipped with a headlamp delay that will leave the headlamps on for 90
seconds. This delay is initiated when the ignition is turned OFF while the headlamp switch is on, and then the headlamp switch is cycled off. Headlamp delay can be cancelled by either turning the headlamp switch ON then OFF or by turning the ignition ON. Headlights, Parking Lights, Panel Lights

When the headlight switch is rotated to the first position, the parking lights, taillights, side marker lights, license plate light and instrument panel lights are all turned on. The headlights will turn ON when the switch is rotated to the second position.

The wipers and washers are operated by a switch in the multifunction control lever. Turn the end of the handle to select the desired wiper speed.

128 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

Intermittent Wiper System The intermittent feature of this system was designed for use when weather conditions make a single wiping cycle, with a variable pause between cycles, desirable. For maximum delay between cycles, rotate the control knob into the upper end of the delay range. The delay interval decreases as you rotate the knob until it enters the LO continual speed position. The delay can be regulated from a maximum of about 15 seconds between cycles, to a cycle every 2 seconds. The delay intervals will double in duration when the vehicle speed is 10 mph (16 km) or less.

WARNING!

Sudden loss of visibility through the windshield could lead to an accident. You might not see other vehicles or other obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of the windshield during freezing weather, warm the windshield with defroster before and during wind- shield washer use.

Windshield Washers To use the washer, push in on the washer knob on the end of the multifunction control lever and hold while spray is desired. If the washer knob is depressed while in the delay range, the wiper will operate for several seconds after the washer knob is released. It will then resume the intermittent interval previously selected. If the washer knob is pushed, for a period greater than 1 second, while in the OFF position, the wiper will wipe approximately three wipes, after the wash knob is released.

To prevent freeze-up of your windshield washer system in cold weather, select a solution or mixture that meets or exceeds the temperature range of your climate. This rating information can be found on most washer fluid containers.

Use this button to reset the following displays: Average Fuel Economy (AVG ECO) Trip Odometer (ODO) Elapsed time (ET)

Use this button to choose or cycle through the four trip conditions.

Average Fuel Economy (AVG ECO) Shows the average fuel economy since the last reset. Average fuel economy is a running average of the amount of fuel used and the distance the vehicle has traveled. When the fuel economy is reset, the display will momen- tarily blank. Then, the history information will be erased, and the averaging will continue from where it was before the reset. Distance To Empty (DTE) Shows the estimated distance that can be traveled with the fuel remaining in the tank. This estimated distance is determined by weighted average of the instantaneous and average fuel economy, according to the current fuel tank level. This is not resettable NOTE: Significant changes in driving style or vehicle loading will greatly affect the actual drivable distance of the vehicle, regardless of the DTE displayed value.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 137

When the DTE value is less than 30 miles estimated driving distance, the DTE display will change to an alternating test display of “LO” and “FUEL”. This dis- play will continue until the vehicle runs out of fuel. Adding a significant amount of fuel to the vehicle will turn off the “LO FUEL” text and a new DTE value will be displayed, based on the current values in the DTE calculation and the current fuel tank level. It is possible for DTE to display “LO FUEL” NOTE: before the low fuel warning light turns on in the instru- ment cluster. This could occur because low fuel warning is set to a specified fuel tank volume and DTE is an estimated distance calculation based on fuel economy and remaining fuel tank volume. Ram fuel tank volumes are as follows: • 34 gallons - short box models • 35 gallons - long box models

138 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

Trip Odometer (ODO) This display shows the distance traveled since the last reset. Resetting of this screen will cause the trip odometer to change to Zero. Elapsed Time (ET) This display shows the accumulated ignition ON time since the last reset. Resetting the Elapsed Time will cause the display to change to Zero.

Manual Compass Calibration

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 139

Even if the display still reads a few degrees above 32°F ( 0°C), the road surface may be icy, particularly in woods or on bridges. Drive carefully under such conditions to prevent an accident and possible per- sonal injury or property damage.

Automatic Compass Calibration This compass is self-calibrating which eliminates the need to manually set the compass. When the vehicle is new, the compass may appear erratic and the CAL symbol will be displayed. After completing up to three 360° turns, with the vehicle traveling less than 5 mph (8 km/h), in an area free from large metal or metallic objects, the CAL symbol will turn off and the compass will function normally.

NOTE: To ensure proper compass calibration, make sure the compass variance is properly set before manu- ally calibrating the compass. If the compass appears erratic and the CAL symbol does not appear, you must manually put the compass into the “Calibration” mode. Recalibrating The Compass Turn on the ignition and set the display to “Compass/ Temperature.” Press and hold the RESET button to change the display between VAR (compass variance) and CAL (compass calibration) modes. When the CAL sym- bol is displayed complete one 360° turn in an area free from large metal objects or power lines. The CAL symbol will turn off and the compass will function normally.

140 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

Compass Variance is the difference between magnetic north and geographic north. In some areas of the country, the difference between magnetic and geographic north is great enough to cause the compass to give false readings. If this occurs, the compass variance must be set according to the Compass Variance Map.

NOTE: The default for the compass variance is zone 8. To set the variance: Turn the ignition ON and set the display to “Compass/Temperature.” Press and hold the RESET button approximately five seconds. The last vari- ance zone number will be displayed. Press the STEP button to select the new variance zone and press the RESET button to resume normal operation.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 141

Outside Temperature Because the ambient temperature sensor is located un- derhood, engine temperature can influence the displayed temperature, therefore, temperature readings are slowly updated when the vehicle speed is below 20 mph (30

Open Sunroof - Express Mode Momentarily pressing the switch rearward will activate the Express Open Feature, causing the sunroof to open automatically. During the Express Open operation, any movement of the switch will stop the sunroof and it will remain in a partial open position. Again, momentarily pressing the switch rearward will activate the Express Open Feature. Comfort Stop

The sunroof is equipped with an intermediate “Comfort Stop” position. This is the first stop that express open reaches. This is designed to reduce wind buffeting at vehicle speeds between 20 - 40 mph (32 - 64 km/h). Pressing the switch momentarily rearward again will open the sunroof to its full open position however wind buffeting can occur at full open.

150 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

Closing Sunroof - Express Press the switch forward and release, and the sunroof will close automatically from any position. The sunroof will close fully and stop automatically. This is called Express Close. During Express Close operation, any movement of the switch will stop the sunroof. Pinch Protect Feature This feature will detect an obstruction in the opening of the sunroof during Express Close operation. If an ob- struction in the path of the sunroof is detected, the sunroof will automatically retract. Remove the obstruc- tion if this occurs. Next, press the switch forward and release to Express Close. Pinch Protect Override If a known obstruction (ice, debris, etc.) prevents closing, press the switch forward and hold for two seconds after the reversal occurs. This allows the sunroof to move towards the closed position.

NOTE: Pinch protection is disabled while the switch is pressed. Venting Sunroof - Express Press and release the ⬙V⬙ button, and the sunroof will open to the vent position. This is called Express Vent, and will occur regardless of sunroof position. During Express Vent operation, any movement of the switch will stop the sunroof. Sunshade Operation The sunshade can be opened manually. However, the sunshade will open automatically as the sunroof opens. NOTE: The sunshade cannot be closed if the sunroof is open.

Wind Buffeting Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of pressure on the ears or a helicopter type sound in the ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open or partially open positions. This is a normal occur- rence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear windows open, open the front and rear windows together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the buffeting or open any window. Sunroof Maintenance Use only a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth to clean the glass panel. Sunroof Fully Closed Press the switch forward and release to ensure that the sunroof is fully closed.

The outlet is located in the instrument panel below and to the right of the Climate Control Panel. A cap is attached to the outlet base indicating “Power Outlet” 12V-20A. There is an additional Power Outlet in the center console of a 40/20/40 seat (if equipped). The outlet(s) has/have a fused direct feed from the battery so it/they receive power whether the ignition is ON or OFF. All accessories connected to this/these outlet(s) should be removed or turned OFF when the vehicle is not in use to protect the battery against discharge. If desired, all of the power outlets can be NOTE: converted by your authorized dealer to provide power with the ignition switch in the ON position only.

CIGAR LIGHTER AND ASH RECEIVER The removable ash receiver is located in the instrument panel cup holder tray. The cigar lighter is located on the instrument panel, above and to the left of the ash receiver.

152 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

CAUTION!

Electrical Outlet Use With Engine Off • Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power from the vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e. cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long enough, the vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life and/or prevent engine starting. • Accessories that draw higher power (i.e. coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.), will discharge the battery even more quickly. Only use these inter- mittently and with greater caution. • After the use of high power draw accessories, or long periods of the vehicle not being started (with accessories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a sufficient length of time to allow the generator to recharge the vehicle’s battery.

PICKUP BOX

Pickup Box Features

The pickup box on your new Ram has many features designed for utility and convenience.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 159

If you are installing a toolbox to the front of the NOTE: pickup box, you must use Mopar威 toolbox brackets available from your dealer. You can carry wide building materials (sheets of ply- wood, etc.) by building a raised load floor. Place lumber across the box in the indentations provided above the wheel housings and in the bulkhead dividers to form the floor.

WARNING!

The pickup box is intended for load carrying pur- poses only, not for passengers, who should sit in seats and use seat belts.

160 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

WARNING!

• Care should always be exercised when operating a vehicle with unrestrained cargo. Vehicle speeds may need to be reduced. Severe turns or rough roads may cause shifting or bouncing of the cargo that may result in vehicle damage. If wide build- ing materials are to be frequently carried, the installation of a support is recommended. This will restrain the cargo and transfer the load to the pickup box floor. • If you wish to carry more than 600 lbs (272 kg) of material suspended above the wheelhouse, sup- ports must be installed to transfer the weight of the load to the pickup box floor or vehicle damage may result. The use of proper supports will permit loading up to the rated payload. • Unrestrained cargo may be thrown forward in an

accident causing serious or fatal injury.

There are stampings in the sheet metal on the inner side bulkheads of the box in front of and behind both wheel housings. Place wooden boards across the box from side to side to create separate load compartments in the pickup box. There are four tie-down cleats bolted to the lower sides of the pickup box that can sustain loads up to 1000 lbs (450
kg) total.

SLIDE-IN CAMPERS DO NOT use slide-in campers on Power Wagon models.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 161

EASY-OFF TAILGATE The tailgate can be removed quickly. Tailgate removal is sometimes required for pickup box loading. To remove the tailgate unlatch the tailgate and remove the support cables by releasing the lock tang from the pivot, then rotate and pull away from the box. Once the cables are free, move to the right side of the tailgate hinge bracket. Raise the right side of the tailgate until the right side pivot clears the hanger bracket. Slide the entire tailgate to the right to free the left side pivot. Remove the tailgate from the vehicle entirely. Do not carry the tailgate loose in the truck pickup box. NOTE: Dual rear wheel pickup models require properly spaced rear clearance lights. If such a vehicle is operated without a tailgate, suitable lights must be installed.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DESCRIPTION

1. Check Gages

This light illuminates when the Voltmeter, Engine Oil Pressure or Engine Coolant Temperature gages indicate a reading either too high or too low. Examine the gages carefully, and follow the instructions above for each indicated problem. NOTE: When the ignition switch is turned to OFF, the Fuel Gage, Voltmeter, Oil Pressure and Engine Coolant Temperature gages may not show accurate readings. When the engine is not running, turn the ignition switch to ON to obtain accurate readings. 2. Voltage Gauge

When the engine is running, the gauge indicates the electrical system voltage. The pointer should stay within the normal range if the battery is charged. If

the pointer moves to either extreme left or right and remains there during normal driving, the electrical sys- tem should be serviced. If the gauge pointer moves to either extreme of NOTE: the gauge, the “Check Gages” indicator will illuminate and a single chime will sound. The “Check Gages” indicator may also illuminate prior to the voltage gauge moving out of normal range. In either case, see you local authorized Dealer for system service. 3. Turn Signal Indicators Lights in instrument cluster flash when outside turn signals are operating. (See page 125 for more informa- tion.) 4. Tachometer The tachometer indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute.

CAUTION!

Do not operate the engine with the tachometer pointer at high rpm for extended periods. Engine damage may occur.

5. Airbag Indicator Light The indicator lights and remains lit for 6 to 8 seconds when the ignition is first turned on. If the light stays on, flickers or comes on while driving, have the airbag system checked by an authorized dealer. 6. High Beam Indicator

This indicator shows that headlights are on high beam.

7. Seat Belt Reminder Light

When the ignition switch is first turned ON, this light will turn on for 5 to 8 seconds as a bulb check. During the bulb check, if the driver’s seat belt is

UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 169

unbuckled, a chime will sound. After the bulb check or when driving, if the driver seat belt remains unbuckled, the Seat Belt Warning Light will flash or remain on continuously. Refer to ⬙Enhanced Driver Seat Belt Re- minder System (BeltAlert™)⬙ in the Occupant Restraints section for more information. (See page 43 for more information.) 8. Speedometer The speedometer shows the vehicle speed in miles per hour and/or kilometers per hour. 9. Oil Pressure Gauge

The pointer should always indicate some oil pres- sure when the engine is running. A continuous high or low reading, under normal driving conditions, may indicate a lubrication system malfunction. Immedi- ate service should be obtained. (See page 370 for more information.)

170 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

If the gauge pointer moves to either extreme of NOTE: the gauge, the “Check Gages” indicator will illuminate and a single chime will sound. 10.

This light will illuminate when the TOW HAUL OD/OFF button is pushed once. (See page 283 for more information.) 12. OD/OFF the OD/OFF button is located at the end of the gear shift lever. This light will illuminate when the TOW HAUL OD/OFF button is pushed twice. (See page 283 for more information.)

13. Temperature Gauge

The temperature gauge indicates engine coolant temperature. Any reading within the normal range indicates that the cooling system is operat- ing satisfactorily. The gauge needle will likely indicate a higher temperature when driving in hot weather, up mountain grades, in heavy traffic, or when towing a trailer. If the needle rises to the “245°F” mark, stop the vehicle, shift into N (Neutral), and increase the engine idle speed for 2 to 3 minutes. If the temperature reading does not return to normal, shut your engine OFF and allow it to cool. Seek authorized service immediately. See Cooling System information in the section on “Maintain- ing Your Vehicle.”

CAUTION!

Do not leave your vehicle unattended with the engine running as you would not be able to react to the temperature indicator if the engine overheats.

NOTE: Engine idle speed will automatically increase to 1000 rpm at elevated coolant temperatures to improve engine cooling. If the gauge pointer moves to either extreme of NOTE: the gauge, the “Check Gages” indicator will illuminate and a single chime will sound. 14. Security The light will flash rapidly for approximately 16 seconds when the vehicle theft alarm is arming. The light will flash at a slower rate after the alarm is set. The security light will also come on for about two seconds when the ignition is first turned ON.

To display the engine hours perform the follow- ing: Place the ignition in RUN, but do not start the engine. With the odometer value displayed, hold the trip button down for a period of 6 seconds. The odometer will change to trip value first, then it will display the engine hour value. The engine hours will be displayed for a period of 30 seconds until the ignition is turned off or the engine is started.

17. Check Gages Light

This light is part of an onboard diagnostic system which monitors the emissions and engine control system. If the vehicle is ready for emissions testing the light will come on when the ignition is first turned on and remain on, as a bulb check, until the engine is started. If the vehicle is not ready for emissions testing the light will come on when the ignition is first turned on and remain on for 15 seconds, then blink for 5
seconds, and remain on until the vehicle is started. If the bulb does not come on during starting, have the condi- tion investigated promptly. If this light comes on and remains on while driving, it suggests a potential engine control problem and the need for system service. Although your vehicle will usually be drivable and not need towing, see your dealer for service as soon as possible.

CAUTION!

Prolonged driving with the MIL on could cause damage to the engine control system. It also could affect fuel economy and driveability. If the MIL is flashing, severe catalytic converter damage and power loss will soon occur. Immediate service is required.

18. Brake System Warning Light This light illuminates when the ignition key is turned to the ON position and remains on for a few seconds. If the light stays on longer, it may be an indication that the parking brake has not been released. This light will illuminate if the brake fluid is low, especially when braking or accelerating hard. This light will illuminate if the ABS indicator light has a malfunction. This light will flash if the engine is running and the parking brake is on.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 173

If the light remains on when the parking brake is released, it indicates a possible brake hydraulic system malfunction. In this case, the light will remain on until the cause is corrected. If brake failure is indicated, immediate repair is necessary and continued operation of the vehicle in this condition is dangerous. Acceleration which causes the rear wheels to slip for a period of time may result in the red brake light illumi- nating and a brake switch code being set on ABS equipped vehicles. Depressing the brake pedal should extinguish the red brake light. 19. ABS Warning Light

This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System which is described elsewhere in this manual. This light will come on when the ignition key is turned to the ON position and may stay on for five seconds. If the ABS light remains on or comes on during driving, it indicates

174 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

that the anti-lock portion of the brake system is not functioning and that service is required. See your autho- rized dealer immediately. The ABS light could also illuminate during loss of traction and remain illuminated until the brake pedal is pressed. 20. Cargo Light The Cargo Lamp light will illuminate when the Cargo Lamp is activated by pressing the Cargo Light Button on the headlight switch. 21. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC)

This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control system. If a prob- lem is detected the light will come on while the engine is running. If the light remains lit with the engine running your vehicle will usually be drivable, however, see your dealer for service as soon as possible. If the light is flashing when the engine is running, immediate service is required and you may experience

reduced performance, an elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may require towing. The light will come on when the ignition is first turned on and remain on for 15 seconds as a bulb check. If the light does not come on during starting, have the system checked by an authorized dealer. 22. SERV 4WD Indicator The 4WD indicator will be illuminated whenever the 4WD mode is engaged for either the manual or electric shift 4WD systems. The SERV 4WD indicator monitors the electric shift 4WD system. If the SERV 4WD light stays on or comes on during driving, it means that the 4WD system is not functioning properly and that service is required. 23. Front Fog Light Indicator — If Equipped

This light shows when the front fog lights are ON.

24. Low Washer Fluid Light This light comes on when the washer fluid level falls below approximately 1/4 full. The light will remain on until fluid is added and ignition switch is cycled. 25. Transmission Oil Temperature Warning Light (Automatic Transmissions Only) This light indicates that there is excessive transmission fluid temperature that might occur with severe usage such as trailer towing. It may also occur when operating the vehicle in a high torque converter slip condition, such as 4-wheel-drive operation (e.g. snow plowing, off- road operation). If this light comes on, stop the vehicle and run the engine at idle or faster, with the transmission in NEUTRAL until the light goes off. 26. Odometer/Trip Odometer Button Press this button to toggle between the odometer and the trip odometer display. Holding the button in resets the trip odometer reading when in trip mode.
