FUEL REQUIREMENTS —
DIESEL ENGINE
Use good quality diesel fuel from a reputable
supplier. If the outside temperature is very
low, the diesel fuel thickens due to the
formation of paraffin clots with consequent
defective operation of the fuel supply
system.
In order to avoid these problems different
types of fuel are distributed according to the
season: Summer type, Winter type and arctic
type (cold/mountain areas). If fueling with
diesel fuel whose features are not suitable
for the temperature of use, it is advisable to
mix in a suitable additive with the fuel. With
the proportions shown on the container, pour
the additive in the tank before fueling.
When using or parking the vehicle for a long
time in the mountains or cold areas, it is
advisable to refuel using locally available
fuel. In this case, it is also advisable to keep
the tank over half full.

This vehicle must only use premium diesel fuel
that meets the requirements of EN 590. Biodiesel
blends up to 7% that meet EN 590 may also be
used.
Diesel fuel is seldom completely free of
water. To prevent fuel system trouble, drain
the accumulated water from the fuel/water
separator using the provided fuel/water
separator drain. If you buy good quality fuel
and follow the cold weather advice above,
fuel conditioners should not be required in
your vehicle. If available in your area, a high
cetane “premium” diesel fuel may offer
improved cold-starting and warm-up perfor
-
mance.
Fuel Icon Identification Compliant To
EN16942
The following symbols make it easier to
recognize the correct type of fuel to be used
on your vehicle. Before proceeding with the
supply, check the symbols placed inside the
fuel filler flap (if present) and compare them
with the symbol on the fuel pump (if
present).
WARNING!
Do not use alcohol or gasoline as a
fuel-blending agent. They can be unstable
under certain conditions and hazardous or
explosive when mixed with diesel fuel.
CAUTION!
The manufacturer requires that you must
fuel this vehicle with Ultra Low Sulfur
Highway Diesel fuel (15 ppm Sulfur
maximum) and prohibits the use of Low
Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel.

FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
Engine
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil that has been thoroughly developed and tested in order to meet the requirements of the Scheduled
Servicing Plan. Constant use of the prescribed lubricants guarantees the fuel consumption and emission specifications. Lubricant quality is
crucial for engine operation and duration. If lubricants conforming to the specific request are not available, products that meet the indicated
specifications can be used to top up, in this case optimal performance of the engine is not guaranteed.
ComponentFluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Engine Coolant
We recommend you use PARAFLU UP Formula OAT (Organic Additive
Technology) or equivalent meeting the requirements of FCA Material
Standard MS.90032
Engine Oil – (2.0L Gasoline Engine) We recommend you use SELENIA K POWER PLUS, or equivalent,
API SN PLUS Certified SAE 5W-30 Full Synthetic Engine Oil,
meeting the requirements of FCA Material Standard MS-13340. If
SN PLUS or equivalent oil is unavailable then use SELENIA
DIGITEK PE, or equivalent, SAE 0W-30 ACEA C2/API SN Full
Synthetic Engine Oil, meeting the requirement of FCA Material
Standard 9.55535-GS1.
CAUTION!
Failure to use the recommended SN PLUS or equivalent oil can cause
engine damage not covered by the vehicle warranty.
Engine Oil – (2.4L Gasoline Engine) We recommend you use SELENIA K POWER LUS, or equivalent
0W-20 Engine Oil, meeting the requirements of FCA Material
Standard 9.55535-CR1 or MS-6395. Refer to your engine oil filler
cap for correct SAE grade.
2020_JEEP_CHEROKEE_UG_RHD_UK.book Page 262

Engine Oil – (3.2L Gasoline Engine)We recommend you use SELENIA K POWER 5W-20, or equivalent,
meeting the requirements of FCA Material Standard MS-6395. Refer
to your engine oil filler cap for correct SAE grade.
Engine Oil – 2.2L Diesel Engine For best performance and maximum protection under all types of
operating conditions, the manufacturer recommends SELENIA WR
FORWARD engine oils, or equivalent, SAE 0W-30 that meet the
requirements of FCA Material Standard 9.55535-DS1, MS.90047,
and ACEA C2.
NOTE:
If lubricants compliant with the required specifications are not
available, products that comply with the minimum required char-
acteristics can be used for topping off; in this case optimal perfor -
mance 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.
Engine Oil Filter We recommend you use a Mopar Engine Oil Filter.
Spark Plugs – Gas Engines We recommend you use Mopar Spark Plugs.

CAUTION!
Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze)
other than specified Organic Additive
Technology (OAT) engine coolant (anti-
freeze), may result in engine damage
and may decrease corrosion protection.
Organic Additive Technology (OAT)
engine coolant is different and should
not be mixed with Hybrid Organic Addi -
tive Technology (HOAT) engine coolant
(antifreeze) or any “globally compatible”
coolant (antifreeze). If a non-OAT engine
coolant (antifreeze) is introduced into
the cooling system in an emergency, the
cooling system will need to be drained,
flushed, and refilled with fresh OAT
coolant (conforming to MS.90032), by
an authorized dealer as soon as possible.Do not use water alone or alcohol-based
engine coolant (antifreeze) products. Do
not use additional rust inhibitors or anti -
rust products, as they may not be
compatible with the radiator engine
coolant and may plug the radiator.
This vehicle has not been designed for
use with propylene glycol-based engine
coolant (antifreeze). Use of propylene
glycol-based engine coolant (antifreeze)
is not recommended.
The use of products with different spec-
ifications than those indicated above
could cause damage to the engine that is
not covered by the warranty.
CAUTION! (Continued)
Use AdBlue® only according to DIN 70
070 and ISO 22241-1. Other fluids may
cause damage to the system: also
exhaust emissions would no longer
comply with the law.
The distribution companies are respon -
sible for the compliance of their product.
Observe the precautions of storage and
servicing, in order to preserve the initial
qualities. The manufacturer of the
vehicle does not recognize any guarantee
in case of malfunctions and damage
caused to the vehicle due to the use of
AdBlue® not in accordance with regula-
tions.

NOTE:
If the VR button is not held, and is only
pushed, the built-in Uconnect VR prompts
you and any navigation command said
launches the built-in Uconnect navigation
system.
If you are using the built-in Uconnect
navigation system, and you try and start a
new route using Apple CarPlay®, via voice
or any other method, a pop-up appears
asking if you would like to switch from
Uconnect navigation to iPhone® naviga-
tion. A pop-up also appears, asking if
you’d like to switch, if Apple CarPlay®
navigation is currently in use and you
attempt to launch a built-in Uconnect
route. Selecting “Yes” switches the navi-
gation type to the newly used method of
navigation and a route will be planned for
the new destination. If “No” is selected
the navigation type remains unchanged.
