2011 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE key

• Using a ballpoint pen or similarobject, press and hold the recessed
transfer case N (Neutral) button for
four seconds, until the light next to the
N symbol starts to blink, indicating
shift in progress. The light will stop
blinking (stay on solid) when the shift
to N (Neutral) is complete. A “FOUR
WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM IN NEUTRAL”
message will display on the EVIC
(Electronic Vehicle Information Center).
• Start the engine and shift the transmission into REVERSE.
• Release the brake pedal for five seconds and ensure that there is no
vehicle movement.
• Turn the engine off and firmly apply the parking brake.
• Shift the transmission into PARK and remove the Key Fob.
• Attach the vehicle to the tow vehicle using a suitable tow bar and release
the parking brake.
NOTE: Vehicles equipped with
Quadra-Lift™ must be lowered to the
“Park” (lowest) level, and have automatic
leveling disabled, before tying them down
(from the body) on a trailer or a flatbed
truck. Refer to “Quadra-Lift™” in
“Off-Road Capabilities” for more
information. If the vehicle cannot be
lowered to the “Park” level (for example,
engine will not run), tie-downs must be
fastened to the axles (not the body). Failure
to follow these instructions may cause fault
codes to be set and/or loss of proper
tie-down tension.CAUTION!
• Towing with the rear wheels on the ground will cause severe
transmission damage. Damage
from improper towing is not
covered under the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
• Front or rear wheel lifts should not be used. Internal damage to the
transmission or transfer case will
occur if a front or rear wheel lift is
used when recreational towing.
• It is necessary to follow these steps to be certain that the transfer case
is fully in NEUTRAL before
recreational towing to prevent
damage to internal parts.
WARNING!
You or others could be injured if you
leave the vehicle unattended with the
transfer case in the NEUTRAL position
without first fully engaging the
parking brake. The transfer case
NEUTRAL position disengages both
the front and rear driveshafts from the
powertrain and will allow the vehicle
to move even if the transmission is in
PARK. The parking brake should
always be applied when the driver is
not in the vehicle.

- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation/Malfunction
Indicator Light
• If the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” comes on continuously with the engine running, a malfunction has been detected in the ESC system. If this light
remains on after several ignition cycles, and the vehicle has been driven several miles
(kilometers) at speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), we recommend you drive to
the nearest service center and have the vehicle serviced immediately.
• The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” starts to flash as soon as the tires lose traction and the ESC system becomes active. If the light begins to flash during
acceleration, ease up on the accelerator and apply as little throttle as possible. Be sure
to adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road conditions. The light also
flashes when TCS is active. To improve the vehicle's traction when starting off in deep
snow, sand or gravel, it may be desirable to switch the ESC system to Partial Off
mode by momentarily pressing the ESC Off
switch located below the climate
controls, on the switch panel.
- Charging System Light
• This light shows the status of the electrical charging system. If the charging system light remains on, it means that the vehicle is experiencing a problem with the charging
system.
• We recommend you do not continue driving if the charging system light is on. Have the vehicle serviced immediately.
- Oil Pressure Warning Light
• This light indicates low engine oil pressure. If the light turns on while driving, stop thevehicle and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A chime will sound for four
minutes when this light turns on.
• We recommend you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have the vehicle serviced immediately.
- Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light
• This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS).
• If the light is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, werecommend you drive to the nearest service center and have the vehicle serviced
immediately.
- Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light
• This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system.
• If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the engine is running. Cycle theignition key when the vehicle has completely stopped and the shift lever is placed in
the PARK position; the light should turn off.
• If the light remains lit with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable; however, see an authorized service center immediately. 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.
