2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE quadra

NOTE:
•Steps 1 through 4 are requirements that must be met
before pressing the “N” button, and must continue to
be met until the shift has been completed. If any of
these requirements are not met before pressing the “N”
button or are no longer met during the shift, then the
“N” indicator light will flash continuously until all
requirements are met or until the “N” button is re-
leased.
• The ignition switch must be in the ON/RUN position
for a shift to take place and for the position indicator
lights to be operable. If the ignition switch is not in the
ON/RUN position, the shift will not take place and no
position indicator lights will be on or flashing.
• A flashing “N” position indicator light indicates that
shift requirements have not been met. •
If the vehicle is equipped with Quadra-Lift™ air
suspension, the engine should be started and left
running for a minimum of 60 seconds (with all the
doors closed) at least once every 24 hours. This process
allows the air suspension to adjust the vehicle’s ride
height to compensate for temperature effects.

normal usage.
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop, leaving it con- nected to the tow vehicle.

This section describes procedures for towing a disabled
vehicle using a commercial wrecker service. If the trans-
mission and drivetrain are operable, disabled vehicles
may also be towed as described under “Recreational
Towing” in the “Starting and Operating” section.
NOTE: Vehicles equipped with Quadra-Lift™ must be
placed in Transport mode, before tying them down (from
the body) on a trailer or flatbed truck. Refer to the section
on Quadra-Lift™ for more information. If the vehicle
cannot be placed in Transport mode (for example, engine
will not run), tie-downs must be fastened to the axles (not
to the body). Failure to follow these instructions may
cause fault codes to be set and/or cause loss of proper
tie-down tension.
