2017 JEEP WRANGLER instrument panel

NOTE:The system will display the last known outside
temperature when starting the vehicle and may need to be
driven several minutes before the updated temperature is
displayed. Engine temperature can also affect the dis-
played temperature; therefore, temperature readings are
not updated when the vehicle is not moving.
ECO (Fuel Saver Mode) — If Equipped
The ECO message will display below the outside tempera-
ture in the instrument cluster display (if the audio system
is on the ECO indicator will override the audio information
display line if the Display Fuel Saver personal setting is
ON — see Personal Settings section). This message will
appear whenever you are driving in a fuel efficient manner.
This feature allows you to monitor when you are driving in
a fuel efficient manner, and it can be used to modify
driving habits in order to increase fuel economy.
Automatic Compass Calibration
This compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates the need
to set the compass manually. When the vehicle is new, the
compass may appear erratic, and the instrument cluster
display will display “CAL” until the compass is calibrated.
You may also calibrate the compass by completing one or
more 360–degree turns (in an area free from large metal or metallic objects) until the “CAL” message displayed in the
instrument cluster display turns off. The compass will now
function normally.
NOTE:
A good calibration requires a level surface and an
environment free from large metallic objects such as build-
ings, bridges, underground cables, railroad tracks, etc.
Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic and the “CAL” indicator
does not appear in the instrument cluster display, you must
put the compass into the Calibration Mode manually as
follows:
1. Start the engine. Leave the gear selector in PARK in order to enter the instrument cluster display Program-
ming Menus.
2. Push the MENUbutton until Personal Settings
(Customer-Programmable Features) displays in the in-
strument cluster display.
3. Push the downarrow button until “Calibrate Compass”
displays in the instrument cluster display.
4. Push and release the rightarrow button to start the
calibration. The “CAL” indicator will display in the
instrument cluster display.

5. Complete one or more 360–degree turns (in an area freefrom large metal or metallic objects) until the “CAL”
indicator turns off. The compass will now function
normally.
Compass Variance
Compass Variance is the difference between Magnetic
North and Geographic North. To compensate for the
differences, the variance should be set for the zone where
the vehicle is driven, per the zone map. Once properly set,
the compass will automatically compensate for the differ-
ences and provide the most accurate compass heading.
NOTE: Magnetic materials should be kept away from the
top of the instrument panel; this is where the compass
sensor is located.
To Change The Compass Variance:
1. Turn the ignition switch RUN (it is not necessary to start the engine).
2.
Push the MENUbutton until Personal Settings (Customer-
Programmable Features) displays in the instrument cluster
display.
3. Push the downarrow button until “Compass Variance”
message and the last variance zone number displays in
the instrument cluster display.

variance zone is selected according to the map.
5. Push and release the COMPASSbutton to exit.
Distance To Empty (DTE)
Shows the estimated distance that can be traveled with the
fuel remaining in the tank. This estimated distance is
determined by a weighted average of the instantaneous
and average fuel economy, according to the current fuel
tank level. DTE cannot be reset.
NOTE:Significant changes in driving style or vehicle
loading will greatly affect the actual drivable distance of
the vehicle, regardless of the DTE display value.
When the DTE value is less than 30 miles (48 km) estimated
driving distance, the DTE display will change to a text
display of LOW FUEL.” This display will continue until
the vehicle runs out of fuel. Adding a significant amount of
fuel to the vehicle will turn off the LOW FUEL text, and a
new DTE value will display.
Elapsed Time
Shows the total elapsed time of travel since the last reset.
Elapsed time will increment when the ignition switch is in
the RUN or START position.
Elapsed time displays Minutes: Seconds.
After 59 minutes: 59 seconds have elapsed, Hours will be
displayed before Minutes.
Elapsed time can be reset by pushing and holding the right
arrow button (as prompted in the instrument cluster dis-
play). Upon reset, all digits will change to zeros and time
will start again if the ignition switch is in RUN or START.
Units Selection (UNITS IN Display)
Displays the units used for the Outside Temperature,
Average Fuel Economy and Distance to Empty features.
Push and release the downarrow button to toggle units
between U.S.andMETRIC.
