drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-
drinking driver, call a cab, a friend, or use public trans-
portation.
WARNING!
Driving after drinking can lead to an accident.
Your perceptions are less sharp, your reflexes are
slower, and your judgment is impaired when you
have been drinking. Never drink and then drive.

INTRODUCTION
This booklet is a supplement to the Owner’s Manual
prepared with the assistance of service and engineering
specialists, and is intended to aid the operators of police
or fleet vehicles (used in severe duty, high-mileage op-
erations) in understanding the operation and required
maintenance procedures for such vehicles. It covers
maintenance procedures for vehicles equipped with
heavy-duty packages. However, other vehicles operated
under the conditions listed below are also considered
“severe service” vehicles, and should be serviced and
maintained as prescribed in this booklet. You are urged to
read this publication and the Owner’s Manual carefully.
Refer to the Police Upfitter’s Guide located at
www.fleet.chrysler.com, prior to the addition of any
aftermarket equipment.
Following the instructions and recommendations pro-
vided herein, will help assure safe and reliable operation
of your vehicle. After you have read the booklet, it should
be stored in the vehicle for convenient reference and
remain with the vehicle when sold.

OCCUPANT RESTRAINTS
Driver/passenger air bags affect the way police equip-
ment can be safely mounted in police vehicles.
Any surface that could come into contact with an air bag,
once it has been deployed, must not damage the air bag
or alter its deployment path.
The addition of the supplemental equipment (such as
radios, weapons, mounting brackets, cage, etc.), must be
installed such that it will not interfere or come in contact
with a deploying air bag. Air bag deployment zones are
described below. Sharp edges, corners or protrusions on
supplemental equipment, could damage the nylon air
bag material and reduce the effectiveness of the air bag
during a deployment.
WARNING!
•Vehicles equipped with left and right Supplemen-
tal Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains (SABIC) must
use police cages, which have been approved by the
equipment manufacturer, for use in the vehicle.
•The area where the Supplemental Side Air Bag
Inflatable Curtains (SABIC) is located should re-
main free from any obstructions.
