ENGINE OIL
179)84)
Check that the oil level is between the
MIN and MAX references on the dipstick
A. If the oil level is near or even under
the MIN line, add oil using the filler B to
reach the MAX line.
Take out the engine oil dipstick A, clean
it with a lint-free cloth and reinsert it.
Extract it again and check that the level
is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the dipstick.
Engine oil consumption
85)4)
The maximum engine oil consumption is
usually 400 grams every 1,000 km.
During the initial period of use the
engine oil consumption conditions
should be considered as having stabilised
after the first 5000 - 6000 km.

TRANSMISSION ACTUATION
SYSTEM OIL
5)
The transmission control oil level should
only be checked at a Jeep Dealership.
BATTERY
185) 186) 187) 188)6)
The battery does not require the
electrolyte to be topped up with distilled
water. A periodic check carried out at a
Jeep Dealership is, however, necessary to
check efficiency.
IMPORTANT After the battery is
disconnected, the steering must be
initialised. The
warning light on the
instrument panel switches on to
indicate this. To carry out this
procedure turn the steering wheel all
the way from one end to the other or
drive in a straight line for about a
hundred metres.
IMPORTANT If the charge level
remains under 50% for a long time,
the battery is damaged by sulphation,
reducing its capacity and efficiency at
start-up.
CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
MAINTENANCE
In winter, the climate control system
must be turned on at least once a month
for about 10 minutes. Have the system
inspected at a Jeep Dealership before the
summer.
WARNING
177)Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: gas and
inflammable vapours may be present, with
the risk of fire.
