2017 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE change wheel

Wheel Alignment Mode
Before performing a wheel alignment this mode must be
enabled. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for
further information.
NOTE:This mode is intended to be enabled with engine
running.
If equipped with a touch screen radio all enabling/
disabling of air suspension features must be done through
the radio. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for
further information.
Instrument Cluster Display Messages
When the appropriate conditions exist, a message will
appear in the instrument cluster. Refer to “Instrument
Cluster Display” in “Getting To Know Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
Operation
The indicator lamps 3 through 6 will illuminate to show the
current position of the vehicle. Flashing indicator lamps
will show a position which the system is working to
achieve. When raising, if multiple indicator lamps are
flashing on the “Up” button, the highest flashing indicator
lamp is the position the system is working to achieve. When lowering, if multiple indicators are flashing on the
Up
button the lowest solid indicator lamp is the position
the system is working to achieve.
Pushing the “UP” button once will move the suspension
one position higher from the current position, assuming all
conditions are met (i.e. engine running, speed below
threshold, etc). The “UP” button can be pushed multiple
times, each push will raise the requested level by one
position up to a maximum position of OR2 or the highest
position allowed based on current conditions (i.e. vehicle
speed, etc).
Pushing the “DOWN” button once will move the suspen-
sion one position lower from the current level, assuming all
conditions are met (i.e. engine running, doors closed, speed
below threshold, etc). The “DOWN” button can be pressed
multiple times. Each push will lower the requested level by
one position down to a minimum of Park Mode or the
lowest position allowed based on current conditions (i.e.
vehicle speed, etc.)
Automatic height changes will occur based on vehicle
speed and the current vehicle height. The indicator lamps
and instrument cluster display messages will operate the
same for automatic changes and user requested changes.
292 STARTING AND OPERATING

•Off-Road 2 (OR2) – Indicator lamps 4, 5, and 6 will be
illuminated when the vehicle is in OR2.
• Off-Road 1 (OR1) – Indicator lamps 4 and 5 will be
illuminated when the vehicle is in OR1.
• Normal Ride Height (NRH) – Indicator lamp 4 will be
illuminated when the vehicle is in this position.
• Entry/Exit Mode – Indicator lamp 3 will be illuminated
when the vehicle is in Entry/Exit Mode. If Entry/Exit
Mode is requested while vehicle speed is between 15
mph (24 km/h) and 25 mph (40 km/h), indicator lamp 4
will remain on solid and indicator lamp 3 will flash as
the system waits for the vehicle to reduce speed. If
vehicle speed is reduced to, and kept below, 15 mph
(24 km/h) indicator lamp 4 will turn off and indicator
lamp 3 will flash until Entry/Exit Mode is achieved at
which point indicator lamp 3 will go solid. If during the
height change to Entry/Exit Mode, the vehicle speed
exceeds 15 mph (24 km/h), the height change will be
paused until the vehicle speed either goes below 15 mph
(24 km/h) and the height change continues to Entry/
Exit Mode, or exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h) and the vehicle
height will return to NRH. Entry/Exit Mode may be
selected while the vehicle is not moving provided that
the engine is still running and all doors remain closed. •
Transport Mode - No indicator lamps will be illumi-
nated. Customer driving will disable Transport Mode.
• Tire/Jack Mode - indicator lamps 3 and 6 will be
illuminated. Customer driving will disable Tire/Jack
Mode.
• Wheel Alignment Mode - indicator lamps 3 and 4 will be
illuminated. Customer driving will disable Wheel Align-
ment Mode.
SELEC-TERRAIN — IF EQUIPPED
Selec-Terrain Mode Selection
Selec-Terrain combines the capabilities of the vehicle con-
trol systems, along with driver input, to provide the best
performance for all terrains.
6
STARTING AND OPERATING 293

Selec-Terrain consists of the following positions:
•Snow – Tuning set for additional stability in inclement
weather. Use on and off road on loose traction surfaces
such as snow. When in Snow mode (depending on
certain operating conditions), the transmission may use
second gear (rather than first gear) during launches, to
minimize wheel slippage. If equipped with air suspen-
sion, the default ride height for Snow is Normal Ride
Height (NRH).
• Auto – Fully automatic full time four-wheel drive op-
eration can be used on and off road. Balances traction with seamless steering feel to provide improved han-
dling and acceleration over two-wheel drive vehicles. If
equipped with air suspension, the level will change to
Normal Ride Height (NRH).
• Sand – Off road calibration for use on low traction
surfaces such as sand or wet grass. Driveline is maxi-
mized for traction. Some binding may be felt on less
forgiving surfaces. The electronic brake controls are set
to limit traction control management of throttle and
wheel spin. If equipped with air suspension, the default
ride height for Sand is Normal Ride Height (NRH).
• Mud – Off road calibration for use on low traction
surfaces such as mud. Driveline is maximized for trac-
tion. Some binding may be felt on less forgiving sur-
faces. The electronic brake controls are set to limit
traction control management of throttle and wheel spin.
If equipped with air suspension, the level will change to
Off Road 1.
• Rock – Off road calibration only available in 4WD Low
range. The vehicle is raised (if equipped with Air
Suspension) for improved ground clearance. Traction
based tuning with improved steer-ability for use on high
traction off-road surfaces. Use for low speed obstacles
such as large rocks, deep ruts, etc. If equipped with air
Selec-Terrain Switch
294 STARTING AND OPERATING

When pushed, the LED on the ParkSense Active Park
Assist switch will blink momentarily, and then the LED
will turn off if any of the above conditions are not present.
Parallel Parking Space Assistance Operation/
Display
When the ParkSense Active Park Assist system is enabled
the “Active ParkSense Searching - Push OK to Switch to
Perpendicular” message will appear in the instrument
cluster display. You may switch to perpendicular parking if
you desire. Push the OK button on the left side steering
wheel switch to change your parking space setting.
NOTE:
•When searching for a parking space, use the turn signal
indicator to select which side of the vehicle you want to
perform the parking maneuver. The ParkSense Active
Park Assist system will automatically search for a park-
ing space on the passenger’s side of the vehicle if the
turn signal is not activated.
• The driver needs to make sure that the selected parking
space for the maneuver remains free and clear of any
obstructions (e.g. pedestrians, bicycles, etc.).
• The driver is responsible to ensure that the selected
parking space is suitable for the maneuver and free/ clear of anything that may be overhanging or protruding
into the parking space (e.g., ladders, tailgates, etc. from
surrounding objects/vehicles).
• When seeking for a parking space, the driver should
drive as parallel or perpendicular (depending on the
type of maneuver) to other vehicles as possible.
• The feature will only indicate the last detected parking
space (example: if passing multiple available parking
spaces, the system will only indicate the last detected
parking space for the maneuver).
Active ParkSense Searching
342 STARTING AND OPERATING

Your vehicle is now in the parallel park position. When the
maneuver is complete, the driver will be instructed to
check the vehicle’s parking position. If the driver is satis-
fied with the vehicle position, they should shift to PARK.
TheActive ParkSense Complete - Check Parking Position 
message will be momentarily displayed.
Perpendicular Parking Space Assistance
Operation/Display
When the ParkSense Active Park Assist system is enabled,
the “Active ParkSense Searching - Push OK to Switch to
Perpendicular” message will show in the instrument clus-
ter display. Push the OK button on the left side steering wheel switch to change your parking space setting to a
perpendicular maneuver. You may switch back to parallel
parking if you desire.
Once the driver pushes OK for a perpendicular parking
maneuver, the “Active ParkSense Searching - Push OK to
Switch to Parallel” message will appear in the instrument
cluster display.

been detected and the system is ready to provide visual
warnings in the instrument cluster display if an unin-
tentional lane departure occurs.
• When the LaneSense system senses the lane has been
approached and is in a lane departure situation, the left
thick lane line flashes yellow (on/off), the left thin line
remains solid yellow and the LaneSense indicator
changes from solid white to flashing yellow.
NOTE: The LaneSense system operates with the similar
behavior for a right lane departure when only the right
lane marking has been detected. Left Lane Departure — Both Lanes Detected
•
When the LaneSense system is on, the lane lines turn
from gray to white to indicate that both of the lane
markings have been detected. The LaneSense indicator
is solid green when both lane markings have been
detected and the system is on to provide visual warnings
in the instrument cluster display and a torque warning
in the steering wheel if an unintentional lane departure
occurs.
• When the LaneSense system senses a lane drift situation,
the left thick lane line and left thin line turn solid yellow.
Lane Approached (Flashing Yellow Thick Line, Solid
Yellow Thin Line/Flashing Yellow Indicator)
Lanes Sensed (White Lines/Green Indicator)
362 STARTING AND OPERATING

The LaneSense indicator changes from solid green to
solid yellow. At this time torque is applied to the
steering wheel in the opposite direction of the lane
boundary.
• For example: If approaching the left side of the lane the
steering wheel will turn to the right.
• When the LaneSense system senses the lane has been
approached and is in a lane departure situation, the left
thick lane line flashes yellow (on/off) and the left thin
line remains solid yellow. The LaneSense indicator changes from solid yellow to flashing yellow. At this
time torque is applied to the steering wheel in the
opposite direction of the lane boundary.
• For example: If approaching the left side of the lane the
steering wheel will turn to the right.
NOTE: The LaneSense system operates with the similar
behavior for a right lane departure.

STARTING AND OPERATING 363

The Selec-Terrain switch will automatically change the
vehicle to the optimized height based on the Selec-Terrain
switch position. The vehicle height can be changed from
the default height for each Selec-Terrain mode by normal
use of the air suspension switches. Refer to “Four Wheel
Drive Operation” in “Starting And Operating” for further
information.
When To Use 4WD LOW Range — If Equipped
When off-road driving, shift to 4WD LOW for additional
traction. This range should be limited to extreme situations
such as deep snow, mud, or sand where additional low
speed pulling power is needed. Vehicle speeds in excess of
25 mph (40 km/h) should be avoided when in 4WD LOW
range.
WARNING!
Do not drive in 4WD-LOW Range on dry pavement;
driveline damage may result. 4WD-LOW Range locks
front and rear drivelines together and does not allow
for differential action between the front to rear drive-
shafts. Driving in 4WD-LOW on pavement will cause
driveline binding; use only on wet or slippery surfaces.
Driving Through Water
Although your vehicle is capable of driving through water,
there are a number of precautions that must be considered
before entering the water.
NOTE:Your vehicle is capable of water fording in up to 20
inches (51 cm) of water, while crossing small rivers or
streams. To maintain optimal performance of your vehi-
cle’s heating and ventilation system it is recommended to
switch the system into recirculation mode during water
fording.
CAUTION!
When driving through water, do not exceed 5 mph
(8 km/h). Always check water depth before entering, as
a precaution, and check all fluids afterward. Driving
through water may cause damage that may not be
covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Driving through water more than a few inches/centimeters
deep will require extra caution to ensure safety and prevent
damage to your vehicle. If you must drive through water, try
to determine the depth and the bottom condition (and
location of any obstacles) prior to entering. Proceed with
