present, the system will return to its full
performance state. If the problem persists,
see an authorized dealer.
Service FCW Warning
If the system turns off, and the instrument
cluster display reads:
ACC/FCW Unavailable Service Required
Cruise/FCW Unavailable Service Required
This indicates there is an internal system
fault. Although the vehicle is still driveable
under normal conditions, have the system
checked by an authorized dealer.
Pedestrian Emergency Braking (PEB) — If
Equipped
Pedestrian Emergency Braking (PEB) is a
sub-system of the FCW system which
provides the driver with audible and visual
warnings in the instrument cluster display,
and may apply automatic braking when it
detects a potential frontal collision with a
pedestrian.
If a PEB event begins at a speed below
37 mph (60 km/h), the system may provide
braking to mitigate the potential collision
with a pedestrian. If the PEB event stops the vehicle completely, the system will hold the
vehicle at a standstill for two seconds and
then release the brakes. When the system
determines a collision with the pedestrian in
front of you is no longer probable, the
warning message will be deactivated.
The minimum speed for PEB activation is
3 mph (5 km/h).
Turning PEB On Or Off
NOTE:
The default status of PEB is “On.” This
allows the system to warn you of a possible
frontal collision with the pedestrian.
The PEB button is located in the Uconnect
display in the Controls settings. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” in the
Owner’s Manual for further information.
To turn the PEB system off, push the
“Pedestrian Emergency Braking” button
once.
To turn the PEB system back on, push the
“Pedestrian Emergency Braking” button
again.
Changing the PEB status to “Off” deacti
-
vates the system, so no warning or active
braking will be available in case of a possible
frontal collision with the pedestrian.
NOTE:
The PEB system will NOT retain the last
setting selected by the driver after ignition
shut down. The system will reset to the
default setting when the vehicle is restarted.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
will warn the driver of a low tire pressure
based on the vehicle recommended cold
placard pressure.
NOTE:
The system only warns the tire pressure is
low: it is not able to inflate them.
WARNING!
Pedestrian Emergency Braking (PEB) is
not intended to avoid a collision on its
own, nor can PEB detect every type of
potential collision with a pedestrian. The
driver has the responsibility to avoid a
collision by controlling the vehicle via
braking and steering. Failure to follow this
warning could lead to serious injury or
death.

SERVICING AND MAINTENAN
CESCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for guaranteeing a
long life for the car under the best condi-
tions. For this reason, Jeep has planned a
series of checks and services at fixed
distance intervals and, where provided, at
fixed time intervals, 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 redemption schedule.
Scheduled Servicing is offered by all autho -
rized dealerships according to fixed time or
mileage intervals. If, during each operation,
in addition to the ones scheduled, the need
arises for further replacements 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 between
one scheduled servicing operation and the next should be reduced. More frequent main
-
tenance 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 autho -
rized dealership of any small operating irreg -
ularities without waiting for the next service.
Scheduled Servicing — Gasoline Engine
The oil change indicator system will remind
you that it is time to take your vehicle in for
engine oil replacement.
An “Oil Change Required” message will be
displayed in the instrument cluster and a
single chime will sound, indicating that an
oil change is necessary.
The oil change indicator message will illumi -
nate approximately 7,000 miles
(11,200 km) after the most recent oil
change was performed. Have your vehicle
serviced as soon as possible, within
500 miles (800 km). NOTE:
The oil change indicator message will not
monitor the time since the last oil change.
Change your vehicle’s oil if it has been
12 months since your last oil change even
if the oil change indicator message is NOT
illuminated.
Change your engine oil more often if you
drive your vehicle off-road for an extended
period of time (refer to the “Heavy Duty
Use of Vehicle” section).
Under no circumstances should oil change
intervals exceed 7,500 miles
(12,000 km) or 12 months, whichever
comes first.
Your authorized dealer will reset the oil
change indicator message after completing
the scheduled oil change.

Manual Transmission — If Equipped
Fluid Level Check
Check the fluid level by removing the fill
plug. The fluid level should be between the
bottom of the fill hole and a point not more
than 3/16 inch (4.7 mm) below the bottom
of the hole.
Add fluid, if necessary, to maintain the
proper level.
Please see your authorized dealer for service.
Automatic Transmission — If Equipped
Fluid Level Check
The fluid level is preset at the factory and
does not require adjustment under normal
operating conditions. Routine fluid level
checks are not required; therefore the trans-
mission has no dipstick. An authorized
dealer can check your transmission fluid
level using special service tools. If you notice
fluid leakage or transmission malfunction,
visit an authorized dealer immediately to
have the transmission fluid level checked.
Operating the vehicle with an improper fluid
level can cause severe transmission damage.
Maintenance-Free Battery
Your vehicle is equipped with a mainte -
nance-free battery. You will never have to
add water, nor is periodic maintenance
required.
CAUTION!
If a transmission fluid leak occurs, visit an
authorized dealer immediately. Severe
transmission damage may occur. An
authorized dealer has the proper tools to
adjust the fluid level accurately.
WARNING!
Using the battery with low fluid will
irreparably damage the battery and may
cause an explosion.
When performing any operation on the
battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with special goggles.
Batteries contain substances which are
very dangerous for the environment. For
battery replacement, contact an autho-
rized dealership.
Battery fluid is a corrosive acid solution
and can burn or even blind you. Do not
allow battery fluid to contact your eyes,
skin, or clothing. Do not lean over a
battery when attaching clamps. If acid
splashes in eyes or on skin, flush the
area immediately with large amounts of
water. Refer to “Jump Starting Proce-
dure” in “In Case Of Emergency” for
further information.
Battery gas is flammable and explosive.
Keep flame or sparks away from the
battery. Do not use a booster battery or
any other booster source with an output
greater than 12 Volts. Do not allow cable
clamps to touch each other.
Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead
compounds. Wash hands after handling.
