ParkSense Sensors
The four ParkSense sensors, located in the
rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area behind
the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of
view. The sensors can detect obstacles from
approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to
79 inches (200 cm) from the rear fascia/
bumper in the horizontal direction,
depending on the location, type and orienta-
tion of the obstacle.
NOTE:
Vehicles equipped with Active Park Assist
will have six sensors in the rear fascia/
bumper.
The six ParkSense sensors, located in the
front fascia/bumper, monitor the area in
front of the vehicle that is within the sensors’
field of view. The sensors can detect obsta -
cles from approximately 12 inches (30 cm)
up to 47 inches (120 cm) from the front
fascia/bumper in the horizontal direction,
depending on the location, type and orienta -
tion of the obstacle. When an object is detected within 79 inches
(200 cm) behind the rear bumper while the
vehicle is in REVERSE, a warning will appear
in the instrument cluster display. In addition
a chime will sound (when Sound and Display
is selected from the Customer Programmable
Features section of the Uconnect System
screen). As the vehicle moves closer to the
object, the chime rate will change from
single 1/2 second tone (for rear only), to slow
(for rear only), to fast, to continuous.
Enabling And Disabling ParkSense
ParkSense can be enabled and disabled with
the ParkSense switch located below the
Uconnect display.
When the ParkSense switch is
pushed to disable the system, the
instrument cluster will display the
“PARKSENSE OFF” message for
approximately five seconds. When the gear
selector is moved to REVERSE and the
system is disabled, the instrument cluster
display will display the “PARKSENSE OFF”
message for as long as the vehicle is in
REVERSE. Refer to “Instrument Cluster Display” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” in
the Owner’s Manual for further information.
NOTE:
When ParkSense is disabled and the gear
selector is moved to the DRIVE position, no
warning message will be displayed.
The ParkSense switch LED will be on when
ParkSense is disabled or requires service.
The ParkSense switch LED will be off when
the system is enabled. If the ParkSense
switch is pushed, and the system requires
service, the ParkSense switch LED will blink
momentarily, and then the LED will be on.

PARKSENSE ACTIVE PARK
ASSIST SYSTEM — IF
EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is
intended to assist the driver during parallel
and perpendicular parking maneuvers by
identifying a proper parking space, providing
audible/visual instructions, and controlling
the steering wheel. The ParkSense Active
Park Assist system is defined as “semi-auto-
matic” since the driver maintains control of
the accelerator, gear selector and brakes.
Depending on the driver's parking maneuver
selection, the ParkSense Active Park Assist
system is capable of maneuvering a vehicle
into a parallel or a perpendicular parking
space on either side (i.e., driver side or
passenger side).
NOTE:
The driver is always responsible for
controlling the vehicle, responsible for any
surrounding objects, and must intervene
as required.
The system is provided to assist the driver
and not to substitute the driver.
During a semi-automatic maneuver, if the
driver touches the steering wheel after
being instructed to remove their hands
from the steering wheel, the system will
cancel, and the driver will be required to
manually complete the parking maneuver.
The system may not work in all conditions
(e.g. environmental conditions such as
heavy rain, snow, etc., or if searching for a
parking space that has surfaces that will
absorb the ultrasonic sensor waves).
New vehicles from the dealer must have at
least 30 miles (48 km) accumulated
before the ParkSense Active Park Assist
system is fully calibrated and performs
accurately. This is due to the system’s
dynamic vehicle calibration to improve the
performance of the feature. The system
will also continuously perform the
dynamic vehicle calibration to account for
differences such as over or under inflated
tires and new tires.
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system can
be enabled and disabled with the ParkSense
Active Park Assist switch, located on the
switch panel below the Uconnect display. To enable the ParkSense Active
Park Assist system, push the Park
-
Sense Active Park Assist switch
once (LED turns on).
To disable the ParkSense Active Park Assist
system, push the ParkSense Active Park
Assist switch again (LED turns off).
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for further infor -
mation.LANESENSE — IF EQUIPPED
LaneSense Operation
The LaneSense system is operational at
speeds above 37 mph (60 km/h) and below
112 mph (180 km/h). The LaneSense
system uses a forward looking camera to
detect lane markings and measure vehicle
position within the lane boundaries.
When both lane markings are detected and the
driver unintentionally drifts out of the lane (no
turn signal applied), the LaneSense system
provides a haptic warning in the form of torque
applied to the steering wheel, as well as a
visual warning in the instrument cluster
display, to prompt the driver to remain within
the lane boundaries. The LaneSense system
2020_JEEP_CHEROKEE_UG_RHD_UK.book Page 168
169
will also operate in this manner when only a
single lane marking is detected and the driver
unintentionally drifts across the lane marking
(no turn signal applied).
The driver may manually override the haptic
warning by applying torque into the steering
wheel at any time.
When only a single lane marking is detected
and the driver unintentionally drifts across
the lane marking (no turn signal applied), the
LaneSense system provides a haptic warning
in the form of torque applied to the steering
wheel, as well as a visual warning in the
instrument cluster display, to prompt the
driver to remain within the lane boundaries.
NOTE:
When operating conditions have been met,
the LaneSense system will monitor if the
driver’s hands are on the steering wheel and
provide an audible and visual warning to the
driver when the driver’s hands are not
detected on the steering wheel. The system
will cancel if the driver does not return their
hands to the wheel.Turning LaneSense On Or Off
The default status of LaneSense is “off”.
The LaneSense button is located on the
switch panel below the Uconnect display.To turn the LaneSense system on,
push the LaneSense button (LED
turns off). A “LaneSense On”
message is shown in the instrument
cluster display.
To turn the LaneSense system off, push the
LaneSense button once (LED turns on).
NOTE:
The LaneSense system will retain the last
system state, on or off, from the last ignition
cycle when the ignition is changed to the ON/
RUN position.
LaneSense Warning Message
The LaneSense system will indicate the
current lane drift condition through the
instrument cluster display. Base Instrument Cluster Display — If Equipped
When the LaneSense system is on, the lane
lines are gray when both of the lane bound
-
aries have not been detected and the Lane -
Sense telltale is solid white.
Left Lane Departure — Only Left Lane Detected
When the LaneSense system senses a lane
drift situation, the left thick lane line and
left thin lane line turn solid white. The
LaneSense telltale changes from solid
green to solid yellow. At this time, torque
is applied to the steering wheel in the
opposite direction of the lane boundary.
For example: If approaching the left side
of the lane, the steering wheel will turn
right.
When the LaneSense system senses the
lane has been approached and is in a lane
departure situation, the LaneSense
system will show a solid white left line, a
solid gray right line, and a solid yellow tell-
tale.
NOTE:
The LaneSense system operates with the
similar behavior for a right lane departure
when only the right lane marking has been
detected.

NOTE:
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures lower than
12 °F (-11 °C).
AdBlue® (UREA) Storage
AdBlue® (UREA) is considered a very stable
product with a long shelf life. If AdBlue®
(UREA) is kept in temperatures between 10°
and 90°F (-12° and 32°C), it will last a
minimum of one year.
AdBlue® (UREA) is subject to freezing at the
lowest temperatures. For example, AdBlue®
(UREA) may freeze at temperatures at or
below 12° F (-11° C). The system has been
designed to operate in this environment.
NOTE:
When working with AdBlue® (UREA), it is
important to know that:
Any containers or parts that come into
contact with AdBlue® (UREA) must be
AdBlue® (UREA) compatible (plastic or
stainless steel). Copper, brass, aluminum,
iron or non-stainless steel should be
avoided as they are subject to corrosion by
AdBlue® (UREA).
If AdBlue® (UREA) is spilled, it should be
wiped up completely.
Adding AdBlue® (UREA)
Preliminary Conditions
AdBlue® (UREA) freezes at temperatures
lower than 12° F (-11° C). If the car stands
for a long time at this temperature refilling
could be difficult. For this reason, it is
advised to park the vehicle in a garage and/
or heated environment and wait for the
UREA to return to liquid state before topping
up.
Proceed as follows:
Park the car on flat ground and stop the
engine by placing the ignition in the OFF
position.
Open the fuel door, undo and remove the
cap (blue) from the AdBlue® (UREA)

Refilling With Nozzles
You can fill up at any AdBlue® (UREA)
distributor.
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
proceed 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
indication appears on the instrument
panel display refer to “Warning lights And
Messages” in the “Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel” for further information,
fill the AdBlue® (UREA) tank with no
more than 1.6 Gallons (6 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.
Place 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.
