2017 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE service

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.

ComponentFluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Engine Oil Filter We recommend you use MOPAR Engine Oil Filters.
Fuel Filters We recommend you use MOPAR Fuel Filter. Must meet 3 micron rating.
Using a fuel filter that does not meet the manufacturers filtration and water
separating requirements can severely impact fuel system life and reliability.
Fuel Selection 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 Sulfur 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 specification D-975 Grade S15 will provide
good performance. We recommend you use a blend of up to 5% biodiesel,
meeting ASTM specification D-975 with your diesel engine. This vehicle is
compatible with biodiesel blends greater than 5% but no greater than 20%
biodiesel meeting ASTM specification D-7467 provided the shortened main-
tenance intervals are followed as directed.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid MOPAR Diesel Exhaust Fluid (API Certified) (DEF) or equivalent that has
been API Certified to the ISO 22241 standard. Use of fluids not API
Certified to ISO 22241 may result in system damage.
NOTE:
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 pro-
longed periods, use climatized No. 2 diesel
fuel or dilute the No. 2 diesel fuel with 50%
No. 1 diesel fuel. This will provide better protection from fuel gelling or wax-plugging
of the fuel filters.

• 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.
