2018 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED cooling

•The timing and accessory belts must be
changed every 37,500 miles (60,000 km) or
3 years for particularly demanding use (dusty
areas, severe weather conditions, very low or
very high temperatures for extended periods,
city driving, long periods of idling). Under no
circumstances should these intervals be
exceeded.
Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip
• Check engine oil level.
• Check windshield washer fluid level.
• Check tire pressure and look for unusual
wear or damage. Rotate tires at the first
sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs
before the oil indicator system turns on.
• Check the fluid levels of the coolant reser-
voir and brake master cylinder, fill as
needed.
• Check function of all interior and exterior
lights.
• Control and recovery of additive level for
AdBlue Diesel emissions (UREA) (if
equipped).Demanding Vehicle Use
• Restore additive level for AdBlue Diesel
emissions (UREA) (if equipped), when the
lamp is illuminated or the message on the
instrument panel.
CAUTION!
Failure to perform the required mainte-
nance items may result in damage to the
vehicle.
Maintenance Plan — Diesel Engine
Required Maintenance Intervals
Refer to the maintenance plan on the follow-
ing pages for the required maintenance inter-
vals.
At Every Oil Change Interval As Indicated By Oil
Change Indicator System:
•
Change oil and filter
•
Rotate the tires
Rotate at the first sign of irregular wear, even
if it occurs before the oil indicator system
turns on
At Every Oil Change Interval As Indicated By Oil
Change Indicator System:
• Inspect battery and clean and tighten ter-
minals as required
• Inspect brake pads, shoes, rotors, drums,
hoses and park brake
• Inspect engine cooling system protection
and hoses
•
Inspect exhaust system
• Inspect engine air cleaner if using in dusty
or off-road conditions
• Inspect all door latches for presence of
grease, reapply if necessary.
•
Inspect coolant level.
NOTE:
Once you have carried out the last interven-
tion in the table, continue with the scheduled
servicing, maintaining the frequency indi-
cated in the plan by marking each operation
with a dot or dedicated note. Simply restart-
ing the maintenance from the start of the
plan may cause the allowed interval to be
exceeded for some operations.SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

Checking Oil Level — Gasoline Engine
WARNING!
• Never smoke while working in the engine
compartment: gas and inflammable va-
pors may be present, with the risk of fire.
• 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.
CAUTION!
• 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 se-
verely damage your car.
• The oil level must never exceed the MAX
mark.
• Always top up using engine oil of the
same specifications as that already in
the engine.
CAUTION!
• If the engine oil is being topped up, wait
for the engine to cool down before loos-
ening the filler cap, particularly for ve-
hicles with aluminium cap (if
equipped). WARNING: risk of burns!
• Overfilling or underfilling the crankcase
will cause aeration or loss of oil pres-
sure. This could damage your engine.
To ensure proper lubrication of your vehicle's
engine, the engine oil must be maintained at
the correct level. The engine oil level should
be checked five minutes after a warmed up
engine has been shut off.
Checking the oil while the vehicle is on level
ground will improve the accuracy of the oil
level readings. Always maintain the oil level
within the SAFE zone on the dipstick. Adding
1 quart (0.95 liters) of oil when the reading is
at the bottom of the crosshatch zone will
result in a reading at the top of the cross-
hatch zone on these engines.
Adding Washer Fluid
The fluid reservoir for the windshield washers
and the rear window washer (if equipped) is
shared. The fluid reservoir is located in the
engine compartment. Be sure to check the
fluid level at regular intervals. Fill the reser-
voir with windshield washer solvent only (not
radiator antifreeze). When refilling the
washer fluid reservoir, take some washer fluid
and apply it to a cloth or towel and wipe clean
the wiper blades; this will help blade perfor-
mance.
To prevent freeze-up of your windshield
washer system in cold weather, select a solu-
tion or mixture that meets or exceeds the
temperature range of your climate. This rat-
ing information can be found on most washer
fluid containers.
WARNING!
Commercial windshield washer solvents
are flammable. They could ignite and burn
you. Care must be exercised when filling or
working around the washer solution.

Installing The Rear Wiper
1. Lift the wiper arm off of the glass.
2. Insert the wiper blade pivot pin into the
opening on the end of the wiper arm and
rotate the wiper in to place.
3. Place with wiper on the glass and close
the tail gate.
Cooling System
WARNING!
• You or others can be badly burned by hot
engine coolant (antifreeze) or steam
from your radiator. If you see or hear
steam coming from under the hood, do
not open the hood until the radiator has
had time to cool. Never open a cooling
system pressure cap when the radiator
or coolant bottle is hot.
• Keep hands, tools, clothing, and jewelry
away from the radiator cooling fan when
the hood is raised. The fan starts auto-
matically and may start at any time,
whether the engine is running or not.
WARNING!
• When working near the radiator cooling
fan, turn the ignition to the OFF mode.
The fan is temperature controlled and
can start at any time the ignition is in the
ON mode.
Coolant Checks
Check the engine and, intercooler (if
equipped) coolant (antifreeze) protection ev-
ery 12 months (before the onset of freezing
weather, where applicable). If the engine
and, intercooler (if equipped) is dirty or rusty
in appearance, the system should be drained,
flushed and refilled with fresh OAT coolant
(conforming to MS.90032) by an authorized
dealer. Check the front of the A/C condenser
(if equipped) or radiator for any accumulation
of bugs, leaves, etc. If dirty, clean by gently
spraying water from a garden hose vertically
down the face of the A/C condenser (if
equipped) or the back of the radiator core.
Check the engine and, intercooler (if
equipped) cooling system hoses for brittle
rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, and tightness ofthe connection at the coolant recovery bottle
and radiator. Inspect the entire system for
leaks. DO NOT REMOVE THE COOLANT
PRESSURE CAP WHEN THE COOLING SYS-
TEM IS HOT.
Brake System
In order to assure brake system performance,
all brake system components should be in-
spected periodically. Refer to the “Mainte-
nance Plan” in this section for the proper
maintenance intervals.
WARNING!
Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure
and possibly a collision. Driving with your
foot resting or riding on the brake pedal
can result in abnormally high brake tem-
peratures, excessive lining wear, and pos-
sible brake damage. You would not have
your full braking capacity in an emergency.
Fluid Level Check — Brake Master Cylinder
The fluid level of the master cylinder should
be checked whenever the vehicle is serviced,
or immediately if the brake system warning
