Jack Usage Precautions
To complete the Use and Maintenance
Handbook to which this supplement is
attached, given below are some instructions
on the proper use of the jack.MaintenanceMake sure grime does not build up on the
“worm screw.”
Keep the “worm screw” lubricated.
Never modify the jack.
Conditions Of Non-Use:
Temperatures below −40°C.
On sandy or muddy ground.
On uneven ground.
On steep roads.
In extreme weather conditions: thunder -
storms, typhoons, hurricanes, blizzards,
storms, etc.
WARNING!
When using the crank, make sure it turns
freely without the risk of scraping hands
against the ground.
Even the moving parts of the jack, the
“worm screw” and joints can cause
injuries: avoid contact with them. Clean it
thoroughly if dirtied with grease.
CAUTION!
The jack is a tool designed exclusively for
changing a wheel, in case of a puncture or
damage to a tire of the vehicle on which it
is fitted or on vehicles of the same model.
Any other use, e.g. to jack up other vehicle
models or different things, is strictly
prohibited. Never use it to carry out
maintenance or repairs under the vehicle
or to change summer/winter wheels and
vice versa. Never go under the raised
vehicle. If any work under the vehicle is
necessary, contact an authorized dealer.
Incorrect placing of the jack can cause the
vehicle to drop: use it only in the positions
indicated. Do not use the jack for loads
higher than that specified on the label.
Never start the engine with vehicle raised.
If the vehicle is raised more than
necessary, everything can become more
unstable, with the risk of the vehicle
dropping violently. Therefore raise the
vehicle only as much as necessary for the
wheel/spare.

Sealing A Tire With Tire Service Kit
Whenever You Stop To Use Tire Service Kit:
1. Pull over to a safe location and turn onthe vehicle’s Hazard Warning flashers.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the wheel with the deflated tire) is in a position that
is near to the ground. This will allow the
Tire Service Kit Hose to reach the valve
stem and keep the Tire Service Kit flat on
the ground. This will provide the best
positioning of the kit when injecting the
sealant into the deflated tire and running
the air pump. Move the vehicle as neces -
sary to place the valve stem in this posi -
tion before proceeding. 3. Place the transmission in PARK and
cycle the ignition in the OFF position.
4. Apply the parking brake.
Setting Up To Use Tire Service Kit:
1. Uncoil the Sealant Hose and then remove the cap from the fitting at the end of the
hose.
2. Place the Tire Service Kit flat on the ground next to the deflated tire.
3. Remove the cap from the valve stem and then screw the fitting at the end of the
Sealant Hose onto the valve stem.
4. Uncoil the Power Plug and insert the plug into the vehicle’s 12 Volt power outlet.
NOTE:
Do not remove foreign objects (e.g., screws
or nails) from the tire.
Injecting Tire Service Kit Sealant Into The
Deflated Tire:
1. Always start the vehicle before turning the Tire Service Kit on.
2. Ensure the Mode Select Knob is to the Sealant Mode position.
If the wheel has any damage.
If you are unsure of the condition ofthe tire or the wheel.
Keep Tire Service Kit away from open
flames or heat source.
A loose Tire Service Kit thrown forward in
a collision or hard stop could endanger
the occupants of the vehicle. Always
stow the Tire Service Kit in the place
provided. Failure to follow these warn -
ings can result in injuries that are serious
or fatal to you, your passengers, and
others around you.
Take care not to allow the contents of
Tire Service Kit to come in contact with
hair, eyes, or clothing. Tire Service Kit
sealant is harmful if inhaled, swallowed,
or absorbed through the skin. It causes
skin, eye, and respiratory irritation.
Flush immediately with plenty of water if
there is any contact with eyes or skin.
Change clothing as soon as possible, if
there is any contact with clothing.
WARNING! (Continued)
Tire Service Kit Sealant solution
contains latex. In case of an allergic
reaction or rash, consult a physician
immediately. Keep Tire Service Kit out
of reach of children. If swallowed, rinse
mouth immediately with plenty of water
and drink plenty of water. Do not induce
vomiting! Consult a physician immedi -
ately.

4. Disconnect the opposite end of the posi-
tive (+) jumper cable from the positive
(+) post of the vehicle with the
discharged battery.
If frequent jump starting is required to start
your vehicle, you should have the battery and
charging system inspected at an authorized
dealer.
REFUELING IN EMERGENCY
— IF EQUIPPED
The fuel filling procedure in case of emer -
gency is described in the “Emergency Refu -
eling Procedure”. Refer to “Adding Fuel” in
“Starting And Operating” for further informa -
tion. The vehicle is equipped with a refueling
funnel. If refueling is necessary, while using
an approved gas can, please insert the refu
-
eling funnel into the filler neck opening.

IF YOUR ENGINE
OVERHEATS
In any of the following situations, you can
reduce the potential for overheating your
engine by taking the appropriate action.
On the highways — slow down.
In city traffic — while stopped, place the
transmission in NEUTRAL, but do not
increase engine idle speed.
CAUTION!
Accessories plugged into the vehicle power
outlets draw power from the vehicle’s
battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular
devices, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in
long enough without engine operation, the
vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently
to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could
damage your vehicle. If the temperature
gauge reads “H,” pull over and stop the
vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the pointer
drops back into the normal range. If the
pointer remains on the “H” and you hear
continuous chimes, turn the engine off
immediately and call for service.
2020_JEEP_M6_UG_UK.book Page 204

205
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow
down an impending overheat condition:
If your Air Conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it
off. The A/C system adds heat to the
engine cooling system and turning the A/C
off can help remove this heat.
You can also turn the temperature control
to maximum heat, the mode control to
floor and the blower control to high. This
allows the heater core to act as a supple-
ment to the radiator and aids in removing
heat from the engine cooling system.
GEAR SELECTOR OVERRIDE
If a malfunction occurs, and the gear
selector cannot be moved out of the PARK
position, you can use the following procedure
to temporarily move the gear selector:
1. Turn the engine OFF.
2. Apply the park brake.
3. Grasp the boot material rearward of thegear selector and pull up to carefully
separate the gear selector bezel and boot
assembly from the center console.
Gear Selector Bezel
4. Press and maintain firm pressure on the brake pedal. 5. Insert a small screwdriver or similar tool
down into the gear selector override
access hole (at the right rear corner of the
gear selector assembly), and push and
hold the override release lever down.
Gear Selector Override Access Hole
6. Move the gear selector to the NEUTRAL position.
7. The vehicle may then be started in NEUTRAL.
8. Reinstall the gear selector boot.
WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by hot
engine coolant (antifreeze) or steam from
your radiator. If you see or hear steam
coming from under the hood, do not open
the hood until the radiator has had time to
cool. Never try to open a cooling system
pressure cap when the radiator or coolant
bottle is hot.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULED 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.
1.4L Gasoline Engine
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change
intervals exceed 9,000 miles (15,000 km)
or 12 months, whichever comes first.
Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip
Check engine oil level.
Check windshield washer fluid level.
Check tire pressure and look for unusual
wear or damage. Rotate tires at the first
sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs
before the oil indicator system turns on.
Check the fluid levels of the coolant reser -
voir and brake master cylinder, fill as
needed.
Check function of all interior and exterior
lights.
At Each Oil Change
Change oil and filter.
Rotate the tires. Rotate at the first sign of
irregular wear, even if it occurs before the
oil indicator system turns on.
Inspect battery and clean and tighten
terminals as required.
Inspect the CV/Universal joints.
Inspect brake pads, shoes, rotors, drums,
hoses and park brake.
Inspect engine cooling system protection
and hoses.
Inspect exhaust system.
Inspect engine air cleaner if using in dusty
or off-road conditions. Replace air cleaner
filter, if necessary.
Refer to the “Maintenance Plan” on the
following page for the required maintenance
intervals.
