2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE fuel filter

CAUTION!
The starter motor will engage for approximately
30 seconds at a time. Allow two minutes between the
cranking intervals.
NOTE: The engine may run rough until the air is forced
from all the fuel lines.
WARNING!
Do not use alcohol or gasoline as a fuel blending
agent. They can be unstable under certain conditions
and be hazardous or explosive when mixed with
diesel fuel.
CAUTION!
Due to lack of lubricants in alcohol or gasoline, the
use of these fuels can cause damage to the fuel
system.
NOTE:
• We recommend you use a blend of up to 5% biodiesel,
that meets ASTM specification D-975 with your diesel
engine. Use of biodiesel mixture in excess of 20% can
negatively impact the fuel filter’s ability to separate
water from the fuel, resulting in high pressure fuel
system corrosion or damage.
• In addition, commercially available fuel additives are
not necessary for the proper operation of your diesel
engine.

FLUIDS, LUBRICANTS AND GENUINE PARTS
Engine
ComponentFluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Engine Coolant We recommend you use MOPAR® Antifreeze/Coolant 10 Year/150,000 Mile Formula
OAT (Organic Additive Technology).
Engine Oil Only use ACEA C3 5W-30 Synthetic Low Ash engine oil meeting Chrysler material
standard MS-11106 or Pennzoil Ultra Euro L full synthetic 5W-30 motor oil.
Engine Oil Filter We recommend you use MOPAR® Engine Oil Filters.
Fuel Filters We recommend you use MOPAR® Fuel Filter. Must meet 3 micron rating. Using a fuel
filter that does not meet the manufacturers filtration and water separating require-
ments can severely impact fuel system life and reliability.
94 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE

ComponentFluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Fuel Selection Use good quality diesel fuel from a reputable supplier in your vehicle. Federal law
requires that you must fuel this vehicle with Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel
(15 ppm Sulfur maximum) and prohibits the use of Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel
(500 ppm Sulfur maximum) to avoid damage to the emissions control system. For
most year-round service, No. 2 diesel fuel meeting ASTM specification D-975 Grade
S15 will provide good performance. We recommend you use a blend of up to 5%
biodiesel, meeting ASTM specification D-975 with your diesel engine. This vehicle is
compatible with biodiesel blends greater than 5% but no greater than 20% biodiesel
meeting ASTM specification D-7467 provided the shortened maintenance intervals
are followed as directed.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid MOPAR® Diesel Exhaust Fluid (API Certified) (DEF) or equivalent that has been API Certified to the ISO 22241 standard. Use of fluids not API Certified to ISO 22241 may
result in system damage.
NOTE: If the vehicle is exposed to extreme cold (below
20°F or -7°C), or is required to operate at colder-than-
normal conditions for prolonged periods, use climatized No. 2 diesel fuel or dilute the No. 2 diesel fuel with 50%
No. 1 diesel fuel. This will provide better protection from
fuel gelling or wax-plugging of the fuel filters.
