STANDARD PROCEDURE - PRE DELIVERY
STORAGE
(1) If possible, store vehicles indoors, in clean, dry
places. If vehicles must be stored outdoors:
²Try to avoid storage locations that are near any
obvious sources of industrial or environmental con-
tamination (e.g., trees, factories, steam or vapor
vents, railroad tracks, etc.)
²Maintain tight security to help prevent pilferage
and vandalism, and inspect each vehicle regularly to
check for such damage
²If the vehicle must be parked on an incline, park
it with the front end higher than the rear; this will
prevent ªhydrostatic lockº caused by fuel draining
into the engine
²Rinse the vehicle at least once a week. Snow
should be washed away more often, since it can trap
harmful contaminants. Dry all horizontal surfaces
(2) The IOD fuse should be removed in order to
prevent battery drain and possible damage.
(3) Check the vehicle's coolant and anti-freeze pro-
tection.
(4) Check the vehicle's battery at least once a
month for a proper charge (at least 12.4 volts).
Charge the battery if necessary. This will help pre-
vent freezing and deterioration.
(5) Check the vehicle's tires and inflate them to
their maximum recommended levels. Move the vehi-
cles periodically to avoid ªflatspottingº the tires.
(6) Do not engage the parking brake; keep it in the
OFF position.
(7) Keep all windows closed, all doors locked, and
all trim covers intact and in place.
(8) Do not use chalks, crayons or any marker con-
taining abrasives on painted, plated or glass sur-
faces.
(9) Always use seat covers when moving a vehicle.

Country, the programming must be performed using
the DRB IIITscan tool. On Caravan/Town and Coun-
try vehicles the features can be programmed using
the DRB IIITscan tool or by button pushing
sequences. The customer can perform program-
ming, if desired, by following the instructions out-
lined in the owner manual.

the time of sale. The customer's preferences con-
cerning the features should be noted and pro-
grammed accordingly during predelivery.

ter.
HEADLAMP DELAY
Currently available only on Jeep Grand Cherokee
vehicles, the headlamp delay timeout can be set to
30, 60 or 90 seconds. This timeout only occurs when
the ignition is turned off prior to turning the head-
lamps off, or when leaving the headlamps in AUTO
mode.

sage can be set from 3,219 kilometers to 12,070 kilo-
meters (2,000 miles to 7,500 miles).

55mm (2.1 inches) rearward, or the end of travel if
less than 55mm (2.1 inches) and full downward when

sition itself to the memory location when the vehicle
is unlocked using the RKE transmitter or by pressing
the memory buttons on the door panel.
