INTRODUCTION

Dear Customer,

Congratulations on the purchase of your Jeep® vehicle. Be assured that it represents precision workmanship, distinctive styling, and high quality.

This is a specialized utility vehicle. It can go places and perform tasks that are not intended for conventional passenger vehicles. It handles and m

neuvers differently from many passenger vehicles, both on-road and off-road, so take time to become familiar with your vehicle. If equipped, the

a two-wheel drive version of this vehicle is designed for on-road use only. It is not intended for off-road driving or use in other severe conditions suited for a four-wheel drive vehicle. Before you start to operate this vehicle, read the Owner’s Manual. Be sure you are familiar with all vehicle controls, particularly those used for braking, steering, transmission, and transfer case operation. Learn how your vehicle handles on different road surfaces. Your driving skills will improve with experience. When driving off-road, or operating the vehicle, don’t overload the vehicle or expect the vehicle to overcome the natural laws of physics. Always observe federal, state, provincial and 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 a collision. See

This Owner’s Manual has been prepared with the assistance of service and engineering specialists to acquaint you with the operation and maintenance o

your vehicle. It is supplemented by customer-oriented documents. Within this information, you will find a description of the services that FCA US LLC

f offers to its customers as well as the details of the terms and conditions for maintaining its validity. Please take the time to read all of these publications carefully before driving your vehicle for the first time. Following the instructions, recommendations, tips, and important warnings in this manual will help ensure safe and enjoyable operation of your vehicle.

This Owner’s Manual describes all versions of this vehicle. Options and equipment dedicated to specific markets or versions are not expressly indicated

the text. Therefore, you should only consider the information that is related to the trim level, engine, and version that you have purchased. Any content

in introduced throughout the Owner’s Information that may or may not be applicable to your vehicle will be identified with the wording “If Equipped”. All information contained in this publication is intended to help you use your vehicle in the best possible way. FCA US LLC aims towards a constant improvement of the vehicles produced. For this reason, it reserves the right to make changes to the model described for technical and/or commercial reasons. For further information, contact an authorized dealer.

When it comes to service, remember that authorized dealers know your Jeep® best, have factory-trained technicians, genuine Mopar® parts, and care

out your satisfaction.

If you do not read this entire Owner’s Manual, you may miss important information. Observe all Cautions and Warnings.

ROLLOVER WARNING

Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of vehicles. This vehicle has a higher ground clearance and a higher center of gravity than many passenger vehicles. 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 while some other vehicles may not.

Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneuvers, or other unsafe driving

tions that can cause loss of vehicle control. Failure to operate this

ac vehicle safely may result in a collision, rollover of the vehicle, and severe or fatal injury. Drive carefully.

Failure to use the driver and passenger seat belts provided is a major cause of severe or fatal injury. In fact, the US government notes that the universal use of existing seat belts could cut the highway death toll by 10,000 or more each year and could reduce disabling injuries by two

llion annually. In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly

mi more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle up.

CAMPERS

This vehicle is NOT recommended for slide-in camper applications.

Programming And Requesting Additional Key Fobs

Programming the key fob may be performed by an authorized dealer.

NOTE:

 Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it

cannot be re-purposed and reprogrammed to another vehicle.

 Only key fobs that are programmed to the

vehicle electronics can be used to start and

operate the vehicle. Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be programmed to any other vehicle.

WARNING!

 Always remove the key fobs from the

vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.

 For vehicles equipped with Keyless

Enter-N-Go — Ignition, always remember to place the ignition in the OFF mode.

Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an au

thorized dealer. This procedure consists of programming a blank key fob to the vehicle electronics. A blank key fob is one that has never been programmed.

NOTE: When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer system s

rviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an

authorized dealer

Ú page 466.

SENTRY KEY

The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents unauthorized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The system does not need to be armed

or activated. Operation is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked.

The system uses a key fob, keyless push button

nition and a Radio Frequency (RF) receiver to

ig prevent unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore, only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate the vehicle. The system cannot reprogram a key fob obtained from another vehicle.

After placing the ignition switch in the ON/RUN

sition, the Vehicle Security Light will turn on

po for three seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains on after the bulb check, it indicates that there is a problem with the electronics. In addition, if the light begins to flash after the bulb check, it indicates that someone attempted to start the engine with an invalid key fob. In the event that a valid key fob is used to start the engine but there is an issue with the vehicle electronics, the engine will start and shut off after two seconds.

If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during no

rmal vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than ten seconds), it indicates that there is a fault in the electronics. Should this occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by an authorized dealer.

Page 22

20 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

CAUTION!

The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not compatible with some aftermarket remote starting systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting problems and loss of security protection.

All of the key fobs provided with your new vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle electronics

ssive Entry. There are three situations that trigger a FOBIK-Safe search in any Passive Entry vehicle:

 A lock request is made by a valid Passive

Entry key fob while a door is open.

 A lock request is made by the Passive Entry

door handle while a door is open.

 A lock request is made by the door panel

switch while the door is open.

When any of these situations occur, after all

en doors are closed, the FOBIK-Safe search

op will be executed. If it finds a Passive Entry key

fob inside the vehicle, the vehicle will unlock and alert the customer. If Passive Entry is disabled using the Uconnect system, the key protection described in this section remains active/functional.

NOTE: The vehicle will only unlock the doors during a FO

BIK-Safe operation when a valid Passive Entry key fob is detected inside the vehicle. The vehicle will not unlock the doors when any of the following conditions are true:

 A second valid Passive Entry key fob is

detected outside of the vehicle (within 5 ft

.5 m) of a Passive Entry door handle).

 The doors are manually locked using the door

lock knobs.

 Three attempts are made to lock the doors

using the door panel switch, and then the

doors are closed.

OPERATING TIPS

NOTE: Refer to the chart at the end of this section for su

ggested control settings for various weather

conditions.

Summer Operation

The engine cooling system must be protected with a high-quality antifreeze coolant to provide proper corrosion protection and to protect against engine overheating. OAT coolant (conforming to MS.90032) is recommended.

Winter Operation

To ensure the best possible heater and defroster performance, make sure the engine cooling system is functioning properly and the proper amount, type, and concentration of coolant is used. Use of the Air Recirculation mode during Winter months is not recommended, because it may cause window fogging.

Vacation/Storage

For information on maintaining the Climate Control system when the vehicle is being stored for an extended period of time, see Ú page 443.

Window Fogging

Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in mild, rainy, and/or humid weather. To clear the windows, select Defrost or Mix mode and increase the front blower speed. Do not use the Recirculation mode without A/C for long periods, as fogging may occur.

Outside Air Intake

Make sure the air intake, located directly in front of the windshield, is free of obstructions, such as leaves. Leaves collected in the air intake may reduce airflow, and if they enter the air distribution box, they could plug the water drains. In Winter months, make sure the air intake is clear of ice, slush, and snow.

Cabin Air Filter

The Climate Control system filters out dust and pollen from the air. Contact an authorized dealer to service your cabin air filter, and to have it replaced when needed.

LOWERING THE SOFT TOP

Use this QR code to access your digital experience.

WARNING!

 The fabric quarter panel cover assemblies,

rear window, and fabric top are designed only for protection against the elements. Do not rely on them to contain occupants within the vehicle or to protect against injury during an accident. Remember, always wear seat belts.

 Make sure hands and fingers are clear of

all pinch points when installing and removing the soft top. The side bows may cause serious injury if fingers or hands get caught in-between.

Page 80

78 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

CAUTION!

The soft top is not designed to carry any additional loads such as roof racks, spare tires, bu

ilding, hunting or camping supplies, and/or luggage, etc. Also, it was not designed as a structural member of the vehicle and, thus, cannot properly carry any additional loads other than environmental (rain, snow, etc.).

If the temperature is below 72°F (24°C) and/or the top has been folded down for a period of time, the top will appear to have shrunk when you raise it, making it difficult to put up. This is caused by a natural contraction of the vinyl or acrylic materials of the fabric top.

Place the vehicle in a warm area. Pull steadily on

the top fabric. The vinyl will stretch back to its original size and the top can then be installed. If the temperature is 41°F (5°C) or below, do not attempt to put the top down or roll the rear or side curtains.

CAUTION!

 Do not run a fabric top through an auto-

matic car wash. Window scratches and wax

ild up may result.

 Do not lower the top when the temperature

is below 41°F (5°C). Damage to the top may result.

 Do not move your vehicle until the top has

been either fully attached to the windshield frame, or fully lowered.

 Follow the proper steps for cleaning and

caring for your vehicle’s fabric top Ú page 445.

 Do not use any tools (screwdrivers, etc.) to

pry or force any of the clamps, clips, or retainers securing the soft top. Do not force or pry the soft top framework when opening or closing. Damage to the top may result.

(Continued)

CAUTION! (Continued)

Failure to follow these cautions may cause interior water damage, stains, or mildew on the top material:

 It is recommended that the top be free of

water prior to opening it. Operating the top, opening a door or lowering a window while the top is wet may allow water to drip into the vehicle's interior.

 Careless handling and storage of the soft

top may damage the seals, causing water to leak into the vehicle's interior.

 The soft top must be positioned properly to

ensure sealing. Improper installation can cause water to leak into the vehicle's interior.
