2019 JEEP COMPASS octane

CAUTION!
Do not load your vehicle any heavier than
the GVWR or the maximum front and rear
GAWR. If you do, parts on your vehicle can
break, or it can change the way your ve-
hicle handles. This could cause you to lose
control. Also overloading can shorten the
life of your vehicle. Never exceed the maxi-
mum combined vehicle load value: the
maximum towable load is only allowed if it
does not exceed the maximum combined
vehicle load.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS —
GASOLINE ENGINE
1.4L Turbo Gasoline Engine
This engine is designed to meet all emission
regulations and provide satisfactory fuel
economy and performance when using high-
quality unleaded gasoline having a minimum
research octane rating (RON) of 95. For op-
timum performance and fuel economy the
use of minimum research octane rating
(RON) of 98 or higher is recommended.Light spark knock at low engine speeds is not
harmful to your engine. However, continued
heavy spark knock at high speeds can cause
damage, and immediate service is required.
Poor quality gasoline can cause problems
such as hard starting, stalling, and hesita-
tions. If you experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before considering
service for the vehicle.

Ethanol
The manufacturer recommends that your ve-
hicle be operated on fuel containing no more
than 10% ethanol. Purchasing your fuel from
a reputable supplier may reduce the risk of
exceeding this 10% limit and/or of receiving
fuel with abnormal properties.
CAUTION!
Use of fuel with Ethanol content higher
than 10% may result in engine malfunc-
tion, starting and operating difficulties,
and materials degradation. These adverse
effects could result in permanent damage
to your vehicle.
Materials Added To Fuel
Indiscriminate use of fuel system cleaning
agents should be avoided. Many of these
materials intended for gum and varnish re-
moval may contain active solvents or similar
ingredients. These can harm fuel system gas-
ket and diaphragm materials.

ognize the correct type of fuel to be used on
your vehicle. Before proceeding with the sup-
ply, check the symbols placed inside the fuel
filler flap (if present) and compare them with
the symbol on the fuel pump (if present).

Fuel System Cautions
CAUTION!
Follow these guidelines to maintain your
vehicle’s performance:
• The use of leaded gasoline is prohibited
by law. Using leaded gasoline can impair
engine performance and damage the
emissions control system.
• An out-of-tune engine or certain fuel or
ignition malfunctions can cause the
catalytic converter to overheat. If you
notice a pungent burning odor or some
light smoke, your engine may be out of
CAUTION!
tune or malfunctioning and may require
immediate service. Contact an autho-
rized dealer for service assistance.
• The use of fuel additives, which are now
being sold as octane enhancers, is not
recommended. Most of these products
contain high concentrations of metha-
nol. Fuel system damage or vehicle per-
formance problems resulting from the
use of such fuels or additives is not the
responsibility of the manufacturer and
may void or not be covered under the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.NOTE:
Intentional tampering with the emissions
control system can result in civil penalties
being assessed against you.

Component Fluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Engine Oil – 1.6L / 2.0L Diesel Engine
With AdBlue (UREA)For best performance and maximum protection under all types of operating conditions, the
manufacturer recommends API Certified SAE 0W-20 that meet the requirements of FCA Material
Standard 9.55535-DSX and ACEA C2.
NOTE:
• If lubricants compliant with the required specifications are not available, products that comply with
the minimum required characteristics can be used for topping off; in this case optimal performance
of the engine is not guaranteed.
• The use of products with specifications other than those indicated above could cause damage to the
engine not covered by the warranty.
