2019 JEEP CHEROKEE brake

CAUTION!
Proper operation of four-wheel drive ve-
hicles depends on tires of equal size, type
and circumference on each wheel. Any
difference in tire size can cause damage to
the power transfer unit. Tire rotation
schedule should be followed to balance
tire wear.
STORING THE VEHICLE
If the vehicle should remain stationary for
more than a month, observe the following
precautions:
• Park your vehicle in a covered, dry and
possibly airy location the windows open
slightly.• Check that the Electric Park Brake is not
engaged.
• Disconnect the negative (-) terminal from
the battery post and be sure that the battery
is fully charged. During storage check bat-
tery charge quarterly.
• If you do not disconnect the battery from
the electrical system, check the battery
charge every 30 days.
• Clean and protect the painted parts by
applying protective waxes.
• Clean and protect polished metal parts by
applying protective waxes.
• Apply talcum powder to the front and rear
wiper blades and leave raised from the
glass.
• Cover the vehicle with an appropriate cover
taking care not to damage the painted sur-
face by dragging across dirty surfaces. Do
not use plastic sheeting which will not allow
the evaporation of moisture present on the
surface of the vehicle.
• Inflate the tires at a pressure of +7.25 psi
(+0.5 bar) higher than recommended on
the tire placard and check it periodically.• Do not drain the engine cooling system.
• Whenever you leave the vehicle stationary
for two weeks or more, idle the engine for
approximately five minutes, with the air
conditioning system on and high fan speed.
This will ensure proper lubrication of the
system, thus minimizing the possibility of
damage to the compressor when the vehicle
is put back into operation.
NOTE:
When the vehicle has not been started or
driven for at least 30 days, an Extended Park
Start Procedure is required to start the ve-
hicle.
Refer to “Starting The Engine” in “Starting
And Operating” for further information.
CAUTION!
Before removal of the positive and nega-
tive terminals to the battery, wait at least a
minute with ignition switch in the OFF
position and close the driver’s door. When
reconnecting the positive and negative ter-
minals to the battery be sure the ignition
switch is in the OFF position and the
driver’s door is closed.

Chassis
Component Fluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Automatic Transmission – If Equipped We recommended you use TUTELA TRANSMISSION AS8 Fluid, or equivalent, meeting

Failure to use the correct fluid may affect the function or performance of your transmission.
Manual Transmission – If Equipped We recommended you use TUTELA TRANSMISSION GEARFORCE Fluid, or equivalent,
meeting requirement of FCA Material Standard 9.55550-MZ6 or MS.90030-M1.
Brake Master Cylinder We recommend you use DOT 3, SAE J1703 brake fluid. If DOT 3 brake fluid is not
available then TUTELA TOP4/S, FMVSS no. 116 DOT 4, ISO 4925 SAE J1704, or
equivalent, is acceptable.
If using DOT 4 brake fluid change interval is time based only, regardless of mileage.
FUEL CONSUMPTION AND
CO
2EMISSIONS
The fuel consumption and CO2emission fig-
ures declared by the manufacturer are deter-
mined on the basis of the type-approval tests
laid down by the applicable standards in the
country where the vehicle is registered.
The type of route, traffic conditions, weather
conditions, driving style, general condition of
the vehicle, trim level/equipment/ accesso-
ries, use of the climate control system, ve-
hicle load, presence of roof racks and othersituations that adversely affect the aerody-
namics or wind resistance lead to different
fuel consumption values than those mea-
sured.
The fuel consumption will only become more
regular after driving the first 1,864 miles
(3000 km).
To find the specific fuel consumption and
CO
2emission figures for this vehicle, please
refer to the data in the Certificate of Confor-
mity, and the related documentation that
accompanies the vehicle.
