STARTING AND OPERATING
144

Proceed as follows:
• Insert the AdBlue (UREA) nozzle in the
filler, start refilling and stop refilling at the
first shut-off (the shut-off indicates that the
AdBlue (UREA) tank is full). Do not pro-
ceed with the refilling, to prevent spillage
of AdBlue (UREA).
• Extract the nozzle.
Refilling With Containers
Proceed as follows:
• Check the expiration date.
• Read the advice for use on the label before
pouring the content of the bottle into the
AdBlue (UREA) tank.
• If systems which cannot be screwed in (e.g.
tanks) are used for refilling, after the indi-
cation appears on the instrument panel
display refer to “Warning lights And Mes-
sages" in the “Getting To Know Your Instru-
ment Panel” for further information, fill the
AdBlue (UREA) tank with no more than
2 Gallons (8 liters).• If containers which can be screwed to the
filler are used, the reservoir is full when the
AdBlue (UREA) level in the container stops
pouring out. Do not proceed further.
Operations After Refilling
Proceed as follows:
• Fit the cap back on the AdBlue (UREA)
filler by turning it clockwise and screwing it
completely.
• Cycle the ignition to RUN (it is not neces-
sary to start the engine).
• Wait for the indication on the instrument
panel to switch off before moving the car.
The indication may stay on for a few sec-
onds to approximately half a minute. If the
engine is started and the car is moved, the
indication will remain on for longer. This
will not compromise engine operation.
• If the AdBlue (UREA) was topped up when
the tank was empty, wait for 2 minutes
before starting the engine.NOTE:
• If AdBlue (UREA) is spilled out of the filler
neck, clean up well the area and proceed to
filling up again. If the liquid crystallizes,
eliminate it with a sponge and warm water.
• DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM LEVEL:
this could cause damage to the reservoir.
AdBlue (UREA) freezes at under 12° F
(-11° C). Although the system is designed
to operate below the freezing point of the
UREA, it is advisable not to fill the tank
beyond the maximum level because if the
UREA freezes the system can be damaged.
Follow the instructions in this section.
• If the AdBlue (UREA) is spilled on painted
surfaces or aluminium, immediately clean
the area with water and use absorbent ma-
terial to collect the fluid that has been
spilled on the ground.
•
Do not try to start the engine if AdBlue
(UREA) was accidentally added to the diesel
fuel tank, this can result in serious engine
damage, contact an authorized dealer.
•Do not add additives or other fluids to AdBlue
(UREA), doing so could damage the system.

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 inter-
vals and, where provided, at fixed time inter-
vals, as described in the Scheduled Servicing
plan. To keep the car’s efficiency in tip-top
condition, in the following Scheduled Service
plan pages a few additional checks are listed
that should be carried out more frequently
with respect to the normal coupon redemp-
tion schedule. Scheduled Servicing is offered
by all authorized dealerships according to
fixed time or mileage intervals. If, during
each operation, in addition to the ones sched-
uled, the need arises for further replace-
ments or repairs, these may be carried out
with the owner's explicit agreement only.
The technicians at your dealership know your
vehicle best, and have access to factory trained
information, genuine Mopar parts, and specially
designed electronic and mechanical tools that
can help prevent future costly repairs. If your car
is used frequently for towing, the interval be-
tween one scheduled servicing operation and
the next should be reduced. More frequentmaintenance may be needed for vehicles in
severe operating conditions, such as dusty areas
and very short trip driving.
NOTE:
Scheduled Servicing interventions are set out
by the Manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the warranty. It is
advised to inform an authorized dealership of
any small operating irregularities without
waiting for the next service.

WARNING!
• Do not open hot engine cooling system.
Never add engine coolant (antifreeze)
when the engine is overheated. Do not
loosen or remove the cap to cool an
overheated engine. Heat causes pres-
sure to build up in the cooling system. To
prevent scalding or injury, do not remove
the pressure cap while the system is hot
or under pressure.
• Do not use a pressure cap other than the
one specified for your vehicle. Personal
injury or engine damage may result.
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.
Brake Master Cylinder
The fluid in the master cylinder should be
checked when performing under hood ser-
vices or immediately if the “Brake Warning
Light” is illuminated.
Be sure to clean the top of the master cylin-
der area before removing the cap. If neces-
sary, add fluid to bring the fluid level up to
the requirements described on the brake
fluid reservoir. With disc brakes, fluid level
can be expected to fall as the brake pads
wear. Brake fluid level should be checked
when pads are replaced. However, low fluid
level may be caused by a leak and a checkup
may be needed.
Use only manufacturer's recommended brake
fluid. Refer to “Fluids And Lubricants” in
“Technical Specifications” for further information.
WARNING!
• Use only manufacturer's recommended
brake fluid. Refer to “Fluids And Lubri-
cants” in “Technical Specifications” for
further information. Using the wrong
type of brake fluid can severely damage
your brake system and/or impair its per-
formance. The proper type of brake fluid
for your vehicle is also identified on the
original factory installed hydraulic mas-
ter cylinder reservoir.
• To avoid contamination from foreign
matter or moisture, use only new brake
fluid or fluid that has been in a tightly
closed container. Keep the master cylin-
der reservoir cap secured at all times.
Brake fluid in a open container absorbs
moisture from the air resulting in a lower
boiling point. This may cause it to boil
unexpectedly during hard or prolonged
braking, resulting in sudden brake fail-
ure. This could result in a collision.
