27)
EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE
The symbol switches on in the case of engine oil overheating.28)
IMPORTANT
27)Driving the vehicle with this symbol on may severely damage the gearbox, with resulting breakage. The oil may also overheat: contact
with hot engine or with exhaust components at high temperature could cause fires.
28)If the symbol switches on when driving, stop the vehicle and the engine immediately.

Symbol What it means
ENGINE OIL DETERIORATED
(where provided)
Diesel versions: the symbol is displayed on some versions, along with a dedicated message displaying.
The symbol is displayed for 3 minute cycles and intervals of 5 seconds until oil is changed. The symbol
is displayed until the problem is solved.
Petrol versions: the symbol switches on and then is not displayed when the display cycle is completed.
IMPORTANT After the first indication, each time the engine is started the symbol will continue to
switch on as described above until the oil is changed. On certain versions a dedicated message is
displayed.
If the symbol flashes, this does not mean that there is a fault on the vehicle, rather it simply reports
that it is now necessary to change the oil as a result of regular use of the vehicle. The deterioration of
engine oil is accelerated by using the car for short drives, preventing the engine from reaching
operating temperature.
Contact a Jeep Dealership as soon as possible.
IMPORTANT
30)If thewarning light comes on, the exhausted engine oil should be changed as soon as possible, never drive more than 500 km
from the first switching-on of this warning light. Failure to observe the above may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the
warranty. Remember that when this warning light comes on, it does not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if it flashes you do not
need to top up the engine oil.
31)If the
warning light flashes when driving, contact a Jeep Dealership.

SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the car under
the best conditions. For this reason, Jeep
has planned a series of checks and
services at fixed distance intervals and,
where provided, at fixed time intervals,
as described in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan.
Before each coupon however you always
need to pay attention to what is written
in the Scheduled Servicing Plan (e.g.
periodically check liquid levels, tire
pressure, etc.).
The Scheduled Servicing is carried out
by the Jeep Assistance Network at
pre-set times. If, during each operation,
in addition to the ones scheduled, the
need arises for further replacements or
repairs, these may be carried out with the
owner's explicit agreement only. If your
car is used frequently for towing, the
interval between one scheduled servicing
operation and the next should be
reduced.
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
interventions are set out by the
Manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the
warranty. It is advisable to inform aJeep Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the
next service.
PERIODIC CHECKS
Every1,000km or before long trips
check and, if necessary, top up:
engine coolant level;brake fluid level;windscreen washer fluid level;tyre inflation pressure and condition;operation of lighting system
(headlights, direction indicators, hazard
warning lights, etc.);
operation of screen washer/wiper
system and positioning/wear of
windscreen/rear window wiper blades.
Every3,000km, check and top up if
required: engine oil level.
DEMANDING USE OF THE CAR
If the vehicle is used in one of the
following conditions:
Law enforcement (or security service),
taxi service
towing a trailer or caravan;dusty roads;short, repeated journeys (less than
7-8 km) at sub-zero outside
temperatures;
engine often idling or driving long
distances at low speeds or long periods
of inactivity;the following checks must be carried out
more often than indicated in the
Scheduled Service Plan:
check front disc brake pad condition
and wear;
check cleanliness of bonnet and
luggage compartment locks, cleanliness
and lubrication of linkage;
visually inspect conditions of: engine,
gearbox, transmission, pipes and hoses
(exhaust/fuel system/brakes) and rubber
elements (gaiters/sleeves/bushes, etc.);
check battery charge and battery fluid
level (electrolyte);
visually inspect conditions of the
accessory drive belts;
check and, if necessary, change
engine oil and replace oil filter;
check and, if necessary, replace pollen
filter;
check and, if necessary, replace air
cleaner.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

178)Be very careful when working in the
engine compartment when the engine is
hot: you may get burned. Do not get too
close to the radiator cooling fan: the
electric fan may start; danger of injury.
Scarves, ties and other loose clothing
might be pulled by moving parts.
179)If the engine oil is being topped up,
wait for the engine to cool down before
loosening the filler cap, particularly for
vehicles with aluminium cap (where
provided). WARNING: risk of burns!
180)The cooling system is pressurised. If
necessary, only replace the plug with
another original or the operation of the
system may be adversely affected. Do not
remove the reservoir plug when the engine
is hot: you risk scalding yourself.
181)Do not travel with the windscreen
washer fluid reservoir empty: the
windscreen washer is essential for
improving visibility. Repeated operation of
the system without fluid could damage or
cause rapid deterioration of some system
components.
182)Some commercial additives for
windscreen washer fluid are flammable.
The engine compartment contains hot
components which may start a fire.183)Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
corrosive. In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the affected
parts with water and mild soap. Then rinse
thoroughly. Call a doctor immediately if
swallowed.
184)The symbol
, on the brake fluid
container indicates if a brake fluid is
synthetic or mineral-based. Use of mineral
type fluids will damage the special rubber
seals of the braking system beyond repair.
185)Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin and
eyes. Keep open flames away from the
battery and do not use objects that might
create sparks: risk of explosion and fire.
186)Using the battery with insufficient
fluid irreparably damages the battery and
may cause an explosion.
187)If the vehicle must remain unused
for a long time at a very low temperature,
remove the battery and take it to a warm
place, to avoid freezing.
188)When performing any operation on
the battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with special goggles.
IMPORTANT
83)Be careful not to confuse the various
types of fluids while topping up: they are
not compatible with each other! Topping
up with an unsuitable fluid could severely
damage your vehicle.
84)The oil level must never exceed the
MAX reference.
85)Do not add oil with specifications
other than those of the oil already in the
engine.
86)PARAFLU
UPanti-freeze fluid is used
in the engine cooling system; use the
same fluid type as that already in the
cooling system when topping up.
PARAFLU
UPmay not be mixed with other
types of anti-freeze fluids. In the event of
topping up with an unsuitable product,
under no circumstances start the engine
and contact a Jeep Dealership.
87)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

IMPORTANT Do not operate the rear
window wiper with the blade lifted
from the rear window.
Windscreen washer
The windscreen jets, located on the
bonnet, are fixed.
If there is no jet of fluid, firstly check
that there is fluid in the reservoir (see
paragraph “Engine compartment” in this
chapter). Then check that the nozzle
holes are not clogged; use a needle to
unblock them if necessary.
IMPORTANT In versions with a sun
roof, make sure that the sun roof is
closed before operating the window
washer jets.
Rear window washer
The rear window washer jets are fixed.
The nozzle holder is located above the
rear window.
WARNING
189)The air intake system (air cleaner,
rubber hoses, etc.) can be a protection in
the case of blowbacks from the engine.
DO NOT REMOVE this system unless you
need to carry out repair or servicing
operations. Before starting the engine,
ensure that the system has not been
removed: failure to observe this precaution
may result in serious injury.
190)Exhaust emissions are very
dangerous, and may be lethal. They
contain carbon monoxide, a colourless,
odourless gas which can cause fainting
and poisoning if inhaled.
191)The exhaust system may reach high
temperatures and may cause a fire if the
vehicle is parked on flammable material.
Dry grass or leaves can also catch fire if
they come into contact with the exhaust
system. Do not park or use the vehicle in a
place in which the exhaust system might
come into contact with flammable
material.
IMPORTANT
89)Incorrect servicing of the vehicle or
failure to carry out operations or repairs
(when necessary) may lead to more
expensive repairs, damage to other
components or have a negative impact on
the vehicle performance. Have any
malfunction inspected immediately by a
Jeep Dealership.
90)The vehicle is equipped with fluids
which are optimised or protecting its
performance and life and extending
service intervals. Do not use chemicals for
washing these components since they may
damage the engine, the gearbox or the
climate control system. This damage is not
covered by the vehicle’s warranty. If any
component needs to be washed due to
malfunctioning, use only the specific
liquid for that procedure.
91)An excessive or insufficient amount of
oil inside the base is extremely damaging
to the engine. Make sure it is always at an
adequate level.
