2017 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE warning

moval may contain active solvents or similar
ingredients. These can harm fuel system gas-
ket and diaphragm materials.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS –
DIESEL ENGINE
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 Sul-
fur 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 (formerly known as the Ameri-
can Society for Testing and Materials) speci-
fication D-975 Grade S15 will provide good
performance. 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 clima-
tized No. 2 diesel fuel or dilute the No.
2 diesel fuel with 50% No. 1 diesel fuel. This
will provide better protection from fuel gell-
ing or wax-plugging of the fuel filters.
WARNING!
Do not use alcohol or gasoline as a fuel
blending agent. They can be unstable un-
der certain conditions and hazardous or
explosive when mixed with diesel fuel.
Diesel fuel is seldom completely free of wa-
ter. To prevent fuel system trouble, drain the
accumulated water from the fuel/water sepa-
rator using the fuel/water separator drain pro-
vided on the fuel filter housing. If you buy
good quality fuel and follow the cold weather
advice above, fuel conditioners should not be
required in your vehicle. If available in your
area, a high cetane “premium” diesel fuel
may offer improved cold-starting and
warm-up performance.
CAUTION!
If the “Water in Fuel Indicator Light” re-
mains on, DO NOT START engine before
you drain the water from the fuel filter(s) to
avoid engine damage. Refer to “Draining
Fuel/Water Separator Filter” in “Servicing
And Maintenance” for further information.
Diesel Fuel Specifications
This diesel engine has been developed to
take advantage of the high energy content
and generally lower cost No. 2 Ultra Low
Sulfur diesel fuel or No. 2 Ultra Low Sulfur
climatized diesel fuels.
NOTE:
• If you accidentally fill the fuel tank with gasoline on your diesel vehicle, do not
start the engine. Damage to the engine
and fuel system could occur. Please call
your authorized dealer for service.
• A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel meet- ing ASTM specification D-975 may be
used with your diesel engine without any
adjustments to regular service schedules.
• Commercially available fuel additives are not necessary for the proper operation of
your diesel engine.
• No. 1 Ultra Low Sulfur diesel fuel should only be used where extended arctic condi-
tions (-10°F or -23°C) exist.

CYBERSECURITY
Your vehicle may be a connected vehicle and
may be equipped with both wired and wire-
less networks. These networks allow your ve-
hicle to send and receive information. This
information allows systems and features in
your vehicle to function properly.
Your vehicle may be equipped with certain
security features to reduce the risk of unau-
thorized and unlawful access to vehicle sys-
tems and wireless communications. Vehicle
software technology continues to evolve over
time and FCA US LLC, working with its sup-
pliers, evaluates and takes appropriate steps
as needed. Similar to a computer or other
devices, your vehicle may require software
updates to improve the usability and perfor-
mance of your systems or to reduce the po-
tential risk of unauthorized and unlawful ac-
cess to your vehicle systems.
The risk of unauthorized and unlawful access
to your vehicle systems may still exist, even if
the most recent version of vehicle software
(such as Uconnect software) is installed.
WARNING!
• It is not possible to know or to predict allof the possible outcomes if your vehi-
cle’s systems are breached. It may be
possible that vehicle systems, including
safety related systems, could be im-
paired or a loss of vehicle control could
occur that may result in an accident
involving serious injury or death.
• ONLY insert media (e.g., USB, SD card,
or CD) into your vehicle if it came from a
trusted source. Media of unknown origin
could possibly contain malicious soft-
ware, and if installed in your vehicle, it
may increase the possibility for vehicle
systems to be breached.
• As always, if you experience unusual
vehicle behavior, take your vehicle to
your nearest authorized dealer immedi-
ately.
NOTE:
• FCA US LLC or your dealer may contact you directly regarding software updates. • To help further improve vehicle security
and minimize the potential risk of a secu-
rity breach, vehicle owners should:–Routinely check
www.driveuconnect.com/
software-update to learn about avail-
able Uconnect software updates.
– Only connect and use trusted media devices (e.g. personal mobile phones,
USBs, CDs).
Privacy of any wireless and wired communi-
cations cannot be assured. Third parties may
unlawfully intercept information and private
communications without your consent. For
further information, refer to “Privacy Prac-
tices - If Equipped with Uconnect 8.4 Radio”
in your Uconnect Owner's Manual Supple-
ment and “Onboard Diagnostic System (OBD
II) Cybersecurity” in “Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel” in your Owner’s Manual on

• Prevent any liquid from entering the sys-tem: this could damage it beyond repair.
Anti-theft Protection
The system is equipped with an anti-theft
protection system based on the exchange of
information with the electronic control unit
(Body Computer) on the vehicle.
This guarantees maximum safety and pre-
vents the secret code from being entered
after the power supply has been discon-
nected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the
system will start to operate, whereas if the
comparison codes are not the same or if the
electronic control unit (Body Computer) is
replaced, the system will ask the user to enter
the secret code according to the procedure
described in the paragraph below.
Entering The Secret Code
When the system is switched on, if the code is
requested, the display will show "Please enter
Anti-Theft Code" followed by the screen
showing a keypad to enter the secret code. The secret code has four numbers from 0 to
9: to insert the code numbers, rotate the
BROWSE/ENTER dial and press to confirm.
After entering the fourth number the system
will start functioning.
If an incorrect code is entered, the system
displays "Incorrect Code" to notify the user of
the need to enter the correct code.
After the 3 available attempts to enter the
code, the system displays "Incorrect Code.
Radio locked. Wait for 30 minutes". After the
text has disappeared it is possible to start the
code entering procedure again.
Vehicle Radio Passport
This document certifies ownership of the sys-
tem. The vehicle radio passport shows the
system model, serial number and secret
code.
In case you lose the radio passport, please go
to Jeep Assistance Network with an ID and
the car papers.
Keep the vehicle radio passport in a safe place
so that you can give the information to the
relevant authorities if the system is stolen.

WARNING!
• ALWAYS obey traffic laws and pay atten-tion to the road. Some Uconnect Access
services, including 9-1-1 and Assist,
will NOT work without an operable 1X
(voice/data) or 3G (data) network con-
nection.
• Ignoring the rearview mirror light could
mean you may not have 9-1-1 Call ser-
vice if needed. If the rearview mirror
light is illuminated, have an authorized
dealer service the 9-1-1 Call system
immediately.
• The Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC) turns on the Air Bag Warning
Light on the instrument panel if a mal-
function is detected in any part of the
airbag system. If the Air Bag Warning
Light is illuminated, the air bag system
may not be working properly and the
9-1-1 system may not send a signal to a
9-1-1 operator if an air bag is deployed.
If the Air Bag Warning Light is illumi-
nated, have an authorized dealer service
your vehicle immediately.
WARNING!
• If anyone in the vehicle could be indanger (e.g., fire or smoke is visible,
dangerous road conditions or location),
do not wait for voice contact from a
9-1-1 operator. All occupants should
exit the vehicle immediately and move
to a safe location.
• The 9-1-1 Call system is embedded into
the vehicle’s electrical system. Do not
add aftermarket electrical equipment to
the vehicle’s electrical system. This may
prevent your vehicle from sending a sig-
nal to initiate an emergency call. To
avoid interference that can cause the
9-1-1 Call system to fail, never add
aftermarket equipment (e.g., two-way
mobile radio, CB radio, data recorder,
etc.) to your vehicle’s electrical system
or modify the antennas on your vehicle.
• IF YOUR VEHICLE LOSES BATTERY
POWER FOR ANY REASON (INCLUD-
ING DURING OR AFTER AN ACCI-
DENT), the Uconnect features, apps and
services, among others, will not operate.
