2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE key

Exhaust Service Required — See Dealer Now
This message indicates regeneration has been disabled due to a system malfunction.
The Powertrain control Module (PCM) will register a fault code and the instrument
panel will display the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL).
CAUTION!
See your authorized dealer, as damage to the exhaust system could occur soon
with continued operation.
Exhaust Filter Full — Power Reduced See Dealer
The PCM derates the engine in order to limit the likelihood of permanent damage to
the after-treatment system. If this condition is not corrected and a dealer service is
not performed, extensive exhaust after-treatment damage can occur. Have your
vehicle serviced by your local authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
See your authorized dealer, as damage to the exhaust system could occur with the
exhaust filter full.
DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) sometimes known simply by the name of its active
component, UREA – is a key component of selective catalytic reduction (SCR)
systems, which help diesel vehicles meet stringent emission regulations. DEF is a
liquid reducing agent that reacts with engine exhaust in the presence of a catalyst to
convert smog-forming nitrogen oxides (NOx) into harmless nitrogen and water vapor.
Your vehicle is equipped with a Selective Catalytic Reduction system in order to meet
the very stringent diesel emissions standards required by the Environmental Protec-
tion Agency. Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) is the first and only technology in
decades to be as good for the environment as it is good for business and vehicle
performance.
The purpose of the SCR system is to reduce levels of NOx (oxides of nitrogen emitted
from engines) that are harmful to our health and the environment to an almost
near-zero level. Small quantities of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) are injected into the
exhaust upstream of a catalyst where, when vaporized, convert smog-forming
nitrogen oxides (NOx) into harmless nitrogen (N2) and water vapor (H2O), two
natural components of the air we breathe. You can operate with the comfort that your
vehicle is contributing to a cleaner, healthier world environment for this and
generations to come.

- Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is part of an onboard diagnostic system called
OBD II that monitors engine and automatic transmission control systems. The light
will illuminate when the key is in the ON/RUN position before engine start. If the bulb
does not come on when turning the key from OFF to ON/RUN, have the condition
checked promptly.
Certain conditions, poor fuel quality, etc., may illuminate the light after engine start.
The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on through several of your typical
driving cycles. In most situations, the vehicle will drive normally and will not require
towing.
CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) on could cause
damage to the engine control system. It also could affect fuel economy and
driveability. If the MIL is flashing, severe catalytic converter damage and power
loss will soon occur. Immediate service is required.
WARNING!
A malfunctioning catalytic converter, as referenced above, can reach higher tempera-
tures than in normal operating conditions. This can cause a fire if you drive slowly or
park over flammable substances such as dry plants, wood, cardboard, etc. This could
result in death or serious injury to the driver, occupants or others.
- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light
The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” in the instrument cluster will
come on when the ignition switch is turned to the ON/RUN position. It should go out
with the engine running. 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), see
your authorized dealer as soon as possible to have the problem diagnosed and
corrected.
NOTE:
• The “ESC Off Indicator Light” and the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator
Light” come on momentarily each time the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN.
• Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN, the ESC system will be ON, even if
it was turned off previously.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
153

- 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 the
ignition key when the vehicle has completely stopped and the shift lever/gear selector
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.
- Air Bag Warning Light
This light will turn on for four to eight seconds as a bulb check when the ignition
switch is first turned to the ON/RUN position. If the light is either not on during
starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, have the system inspected at an
authorized dealer as soon as possible. Refer to “Occupant Restraints” in “Things To
Know Before Starting Your Vehicle” of your Owner’s Manual for further information.
NOTE:
The Air Bag System is designed to be maintenance free.
Oil Change Indicator
Message
If an “oil change” message (shown as Oil Change Due) appears and a single chime
sounds, it is time for your next required oil change:
1. Without pressing the brake pedal, push the ENGINE START/STOP button and
cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position (do not start the engine.)
2. Fully depress the accelerator pedal, slowly, three times within 10 seconds.
3. Without pressing the brake pedal, push the ENGINE START/STOP button once to
return the ignition to the OFF/LOCK position.
- Engine Temperature Warning Light
This light warns of an overheated engine condition.
If the light turns on and a warning chime sounds while driving, safely pull over and
stop the vehicle. If the A/C system is on, turn it off. Also, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL and idle the vehicle. If the temperature reading does not return to normal,
turn the engine off immediately.
We recommend that you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have
the vehicle serviced immediately.

** The headlamps are a type of high-voltage discharge tube. High voltage can remain
in the circuit even with the headlamp switch off and the Key Fob removed. Because
of this, you should not attempt to service a headlamp bulb yourself. If a headlamp
bulb fails, take your vehicle to an authorized dealer for service.
