2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE heater

WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age,
chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaus-
tion or other physical conditions must exercise care when using the seat heater.
It may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used for long periods
of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat that insulates against heat, such as a blanket
or cushion. This may cause the seat heater to overheat. Sitting in a seat that
has been overheated could cause serious burns due to the increased surface
temperature of the seat.
HEATED STEERING WHEEL
The steering wheel contains a heating element that heats the steering wheel to one
temperature setting.
The heated steering wheel control button is located within the climate or controls
screen of the touchscreen.
• Press the heated steering wheel button
once to turn the heating element On.
• Press the heated steering wheel button
a second time to turn the heating
element Off.
Once the heated steering wheel has been turned on, it will operate for approximately
58 to 70 minutes before automatically shutting off. The heated steering wheel can
shut off early or may not turn on when the steering wheel is already warm.
NOTE:
Vehicle Equipped With Remote Start
On models that are equipped with remote start, this feature can be programmed to come
on during a remote start through the Uconnect®system. Refer to “Uconnect®Settings”
in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in the Owner's Manual on the DVD.
WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age,

CAUTION!
If the “Water in Fuel Indicator Light” remains on, DO NOT START the engine
before you drain the water from the fuel filters to avoid engine damage. Refer to
“Maintenance Procedures/Draining Fuel/Water Separator Filter” in “Maintaining
Your Vehicle” in your Diesel Supplement on the DVD for further information.
Extreme Cold Weather
• The engine block heater is a resistance heater installed in the water jacket of the
engine. It requires a 110–115 Volt AC electrical outlet with a grounded, three-wire
extension cord.
• Its use is recommended for environments that routinely fall below -10°F. It should
be used when the vehicle has not been running overnight or longer periods and
should be plugged in two hours prior to start. Its use is required for cold starts with
temperatures under -20°F.
• A 12 Volt heater built into the fuel filter housing aids in preventing fuel gelling. It
is controlled by a built-in thermostat.
• A Diesel Pre-Heat system both improves engine starting and reduces the amount
of white smoke generated by a warming engine.
NOTE:
The engine block heater cord is a factory installed option. If your vehicle is not
equipped, heater cords are available from your authorized MOPAR
®dealer.
Water In Fuel Message
If a Water In Fuel message orindicator appears in the cluster and a chime
sounds five times, the fuel/water separator will need to be drained immediately to
prevent engine damage.
Refer to “Draining Fuel Water Separator” in this guide for draining instructions or see
your dealer.
DIESEL

System Overview
This vehicle is equipped with a Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) injection system and a
Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) catalyst to meet the emission requirements.
The DEF injection system consists of the following components:
• DEF tank
• DEF pump
• DEF injector
• Electronically-heated DEF lines• NOx sensors
• Temperature sensors
• SCR catalyst
The DEF injection system and SCR catalyst enable the achievement of diesel
emissions requirements; while maintaining outstanding fuel economy, drivability,
torque and power ratings.
NOTE:
• Your vehicle is equipped with a DEF injection system. You may occasionally hear
an audible clicking noise. This is normal operation.
• The DEF pump will run for a period of time after engine shutdown to purge the DEF
system. This is normal operation.
Adding Diesel Exhaust Fluid
The DEF gauge (located in the EVIC) will display the level of DEF remaining in the tank.
Completely fill the DEF tank through the diesel exhaust fluid fill location (located
behind the fuel door) at every maintenance interval or before if prompted by the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC).
NOTE:
• The gauge may take up to five seconds
to update after adding a gallon or more
of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) to the
DEF tank. If you have a fault related to
the DEF system, the gauge may not
update to the new level. See your au-
thorized dealer for service.
• The DEF gauge may also not immedi-
ately update after a refill if the tem-
perature of the DEF fluid is below 12°F
(-11°C). The DEF line heater will pos-
sibly warm up the DEF fluid and allow
the gauge to update after a period of
run time. Under very cold conditions, it is possible that the gauge may not reflect
the new fill level for several drives.

IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS
In any of the following situations, you can reduce the potential for overheating by
taking the appropriate action:
• On the highways — slow down.
• In city traffic — while stopped, shift the transmission to NEUTRAL, but do not
increase engine idle speed.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow down an impending overheat condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The A/C system adds heat to the
engine cooling system and turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
•
You can also turn the temperature control to maximum heat, the mode control to floor
and the blower control to high. This allows the heater core to act as a supplement to
the radiator and aids in removing heat from the engine cooling system.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the temperature
gauge reads HOT (H), pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range. If the
pointer remains on HOT (H), and you hear continuous chimes, turn the engine off
immediately, and call for service.
WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by hot engine coolant (antifreeze) or steam from
your radiator. If you see or hear steam coming from under the hood, do not open
the hood until the radiator has had time to cool. Never try to open a cooling system
pressure cap when the radiator or coolant bottle is hot.
JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING
Run Flat Tires — SRT Only
This vehicle is equipped with “run flat” tires. Run flat tires allow the vehicle to be
driven approximately 50 miles (80km) at 55 mph (88km/h). Tire service should be
obtained to avoid prolonged run flat feature usage.
NOTE:
This vehicle may be equipped with a spare tire. The spare tire must be used for the
rear wheel(s) only. For a flat front tire, move the rear tire to the front and use the spare
tire on the rear.
