INTRODUCTION
Dear Customer, Congratulations on the purchase of your new Jeep® vehicle. Be
assured that it represents precision workmanship, distinctive styling, and
high quality. The all-new Jeep® Grand Cherokee/Grand Cherokee L continues to
build on its proud legacy as the most celebrated SUV ever, while raising the
bar in luxury and performance. With legendary 4×4 capability, this vehicle
breaks new ground in exceptional performance, comfort, and functionality. We
have improved on-road refinement and premium styling and craftsmanship inside
and out. With an unsurpassed blend of refined sophistication, dynamic
performance, cutting edge technologies, and levels of elegance, the new Jeep®
Grand Cherokee/Grand Cherokee L carries an attractive presence and capability
that is uncommon in its class, unquestionably Jeep® brand, and unmistakably
world class. The all-new Jeep® Grand Cherokee/Grand Cherokee L is a
specialized utility vehicle and can go places and perform tasks that are not
intended for conventional passenger vehicles. It handles and maneuvers
differently from many passenger vehicles both on-road and off-road, so take
time to become familiar with your vehicle. If equipped, the twowheel drive
version of this vehicle was designed for on-road use only. It is not intended
for off-road driving or use in other severe conditions suited for a four-wheel
drive vehicle. Be sure you are familiar with all vehicle controls,
particularly those used for braking, steering, transmission, and transfer case
shifting. Always observe federal, state, provincial and local laws wherever
you drive. As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate this
vehicle correctly may result in loss of control or a collision page 162.
Please take the time to read all of these publications carefully before
driving your vehicle for the first time. Following the instructions,
recommendations, tips, and important warnings in this manual will help ensure
safe and enjoyable operation of your vehicle. This Owner’s Manual describes
all versions of this vehicle. Options and equipment dedicated to specific
markets or versions are not expressly indicated in the text. Therefore, you
should only consider the information that is related to the trim level,
engine, and version that you have purchased. Any content introduced throughout
the Owner’s Information, which may or may not be applicable to your vehicle,
will be identified with the wording “If Equipped”. All data contained in this
publication are intended to help you use your vehicle in the best possible
way. FCA US LLC aims at a constant improvement of the vehicles produced. For
this reason, it reserves the right to make changes to the model described for
technical and/or commercial reasons. For further information, contact an
authorized dealer. When it comes to service, remember that authorized dealers
know your Jeep® best, have factory-trained technicians, genuine Mopar® parts,
and care about your satisfaction.

ROLLOVER WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of
vehicles. This 1
vehicle has a higher ground clearance and a higher center of gravity than many
passenger vehicles. It is capable of performing better in a wide variety of
off-road applications. Driven in an unsafe manner, all vehicles can go out of
control. Because of the higher center of gravity, if this vehicle is out of
control, it may roll over while some other vehicles may not.
Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneuvers, or other unsafe driving actions
that can cause loss of vehicle control. Failure to operate this vehicle safely
may result in a collision, rollover of the vehicle, and severe or fatal
injury. Drive carefully.
FOOTNOTE
Supplementary and relevant information pertaining to the topic.
Rollover Warning Label
If you do not read the entire Owner’s Manual, you may miss important information. Observe all Cautions and Warnings.
Failure to use the driver and passenger seat belts provided is a major cause of severe or fatal injury. In fact, the US government notes that the universal use of existing seat belts could cut the highway death toll by 10,000 or more each year and could reduce disabling injuries by two million annually. In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle up.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
KEYS
KEY FOB
Your vehicle is equipped with a key fob which supports Passive Entry, Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE), Keyless Enter `n GoTM (if equipped), Remote Start (if
equipped), and remote power liftgate (if equipped) operation. The key fob
allows you to lock or unlock all doors and liftgate, as well as activate the
Panic Alarm from distances up to approximately 66 ft (20 m). The key fob does
not need to be pointed at the vehicle to activate the system. The key fob also
contains an emergency key, which is stored in the rear of the key fob.
NOTE: In vehicles equipped with Remote Start, the key fob will operate at
distances up to 328 ft (100 m).
NOTE:
· The key fob’s wireless signal may be blocked if the key fob is located next
to a mobile phone, laptop, or other electronic device. This may result in poor
performance.
· If your vehicle is equipped with a Wireless Charging Pad, the key fob may
not be detected if it is placed within 6 inches (15 cm) of the pad page 68.
· With the ignition in the ON position and the vehicle moving at 2 mph (4
km/h), all RKE commands are disabled.

In case the ignition switch does not change positions with the push of a
button, the key fob may have a low or fully depleted battery. A low key fob
battery can be verified by referring to the instrument cluster, which will
display directions to follow. For more information on ignition positions, see
page 20.
NOTE:
A low key fob battery condition may be indicated by a message in the instrument cluster display, or by the
2
LED light on the key fob. If the LED key fob light no lon-
ger illuminates after a key fob button is pushed, then
the key fob battery requires replacement page 329.
To Lock/Unlock The Doors And Liftgate
Push and release the unlock button on the key fob once to unlock the driver’s
door, or twice within five seconds to unlock all the doors and the liftgate.
To lock all the doors and the liftgate, push the lock button once.
If enabled within the Uconnect system, the turn signals will flash and other
illuminated entry features will be activated when the doors are unlocked. When
the doors are locked, the turn signals will flash and the horn will chirp.
NOTE:
· If the vehicle is equipped with the Auto Relock feature, and is unlocked
with the key fob, and no door is opened within 60 seconds, the vehicle will
relock and the Vehicle Security system will arm (if equipped). This feature
can be enabled/disabled within Uconnect Settings.
· If one or more doors are open, or the liftgate is open, the doors will lock.
The doors will unlock again automatically if the key fob is left inside the
passenger compartment, otherwise the doors will stay locked.
All doors can be programmed to unlock on the first push of the unlock button
through Uconnect Settings
page 165.
18 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Using The Panic Feature
To turn the Panic feature on or off, push the Panic button on the key fob.
When the Panic feature is activated, the turn signals will flash, the horn may
pulse on and off (if equipped with horn alarm), and the interior lights will
turn on. The Panic feature will stay on for three minutes unless you turn it
off by either pushing the Panic button a second time or drive the vehicle at a
speed of 15 mph (24 km/h) or greater.
NOTE:
· The interior lights will turn off if you place the ignition in the ON/RUN
position while the Panic feature is activated. However, the exterior lights
and horn (if equipped with horn alarm) will remain on.
· You may need to be closer than 66 ft (20 m) from the vehicle when using the
key fob to turn off the Panic feature due to the radio frequency noises

· Keep new and used batteries away from children. If the battery compartment
does not close securely, stop using the product and keep it away from
children.
Programming And Requesting Additional Key Fobs
Programming the key fob may be performed by an authorized dealer.
NOTE:
· Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be repurposed and
reprogrammed to another vehicle.
· Only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle electronics can be used to
start and operate the vehicle. Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it
cannot be programmed to any other vehicle.
WARNING!
· Always remove the key fobs from the vehicle and lock all doors when leaving
the vehicle unattended. (Continued)
WARNING!
· Always remember to place the Keyless Enter `n GoTM Ignition in the OFF
position when exiting the vehicle.
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an authorized dealer. This
procedure consists of programming a blank key fob to the vehicle electronics.

SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents unauthorized vehicle operation by
disabling the engine. The system does not need to be armed or activated.
Operation is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or
unlocked. The system uses a key fob, keyless push button ignition and a Radio
Frequency (RF) receiver to prevent unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore,
only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle can be used to start and
operate the vehicle. The system cannot reprogram a key fob obtained from
another vehicle. After placing the ignition in the ON/RUN position, the
Vehicle Security Light will turn on for three seconds for a bulb check. If the
light remains on after the bulb check, it indicates that there is a problem
with the electronics. In addition, if the light begins to flash after the
bulb check, it indicates that someone attempted to start the engine with an
invalid key fob. In the event that a valid key fob is used to start the engine
but there is an issue with the vehicle electronics, the engine will start and
shut off after two seconds. If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during
normal vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than 10 seconds), it
indicates that there is a fault in the electronics. Should this occur, have
the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by an authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not compatible with some aftermarket
Remote Start systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting
problems and loss of security protection.
All of the key fobs provided with your new vehicle have been programmed to the
vehicle electronics
page 329.
NOTE: A key fob that has not been programmed is also considered an invalid
key.

hand-held transmitters that operate devices such as garage door open-
Scan me
ers, motorized gates, lighting or
home security systems. The HomeLink® unit is pow-
ered by your vehicle’s 12 Volt battery.
· The HomeLink® buttons that are located in the
overhead console or sun visor designate the three
different HomeLink® channels.
· To operate HomeLink®, push and release any of the
programmed HomeLink® buttons. These buttons
will activate the devices they are programmed to
with each press of the corresponding HomeLink®
button.
· The HomeLink® indicator light is located above the
center button.
NOTE:
HomeLink® is disabled when the Vehicle Security system is active page 329.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN PROGRAMMING HOMELINK®
For efficient programming and accurate transmission of the Radio Frequency
(RF) signal, it is recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device that is being programmed to the HomeLink® system.
Make sure your hand-held transmitter is programmed to activate the device you
are trying to program your HomeLink® button to.
Ensure that your vehicle is parked outside of the garage before you begin
programming.
It is recommended that you erase all the channels of your HomeLink® before you
use it for the first time. If you require assistance, please call toll-free
1-800-355-3515 or visit HomeLink.com.
ERASING ALL THE HOMELINK® CHANNELS
To erase the channels, follow this procedure:
1. Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position.
2. Push and hold the two outside HomeLink® buttons (I and III) for up to 20
seconds, or until the HomeLink® indicator light flashes.
NOTE: Erasing all channels should only be performed when programming HomeLink®
for the first time. Do not erase channels when programming additional buttons.
IDENTIFYING WHETHER YOU HAVE A ROLLING CODE OR NON-ROLLING CODE DEVICE
Before programming a device to one of your HomeLink® buttons, you must
determine whether the device has a rolling code or non-rolling code. Rolling
Code Devices
To determine if your device has a rolling code, a good indicator is its
manufacturing date. Typically, devices manufactured after 1995 have rolling
codes. A device with a rolling code will also have a “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button
located where the antenna is attached to the device. The button may not be
immediately visible when looking at the device. The name and color of the
button may vary slightly by manufacturer.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 47
NOTE:
The “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button is not the button you normally use to operate the device.
Non-rolling Code Devices
Most devices manufactured before 1995 will not have a rolling code. These devices will also not have a “LEARN”
2
or “TRAIN” button.
PROGRAMMING HOMELINK® TO A GARAGE DOOR OPENER
To program any of the HomeLink® buttons to activate your garage door opener
motor, proceed as follows:
NOTE: All HomeLink® buttons are programmed using this procedure. You do not
need to erase all channels when programming additional buttons.
1. Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the garage door opener transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away
from the HomeLink® button you wish to program, while keeping the HomeLink®
indicator light in view.
3. Push and hold the HomeLink® button you want to program while you push and
hold the garage door opener transmitter button you are trying to replicate.
4. Continue to hold both buttons and observe the HomeLink® indicator light.
The HomeLink® indicator light will flash slowly and then rapidly. Once this
happens, release both buttons.
NOTE:
Make sure the garage door opener motor is plugged in before moving on to the
rolling code/non-rolling code final steps.
48 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Rolling Code Garage Door Opener Final Steps
NOTE: You have 30 seconds in which to initiate rolling code final step 2,
after completing rolling code final step 1.
1. At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the “LEARN” or
“TRAIN” button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is
attached to the garage door opener motor. Firmly push and release the “LEARN”
or “TRAIN” button.
2. Return to the vehicle and push the programmed HomeLink® button three times
(holding the button for two seconds each time). If the garage door opener
motor operates, programming is complete.
3. Push the programmed HomeLink® button to confirm that the garage door
opener motor operates. If the garage door opener motor does not operate,
repeat the final steps for the rolling code procedure.
Non-Rolling Code Garage Door Opener Final Steps
1. Push and hold the programmed HomeLink® button and observe the HomeLink®
indicator light. If the HomeLink® indicator light stays on constantly,
programming is complete.
2. Push the programmed HomeLink® button to confirm that the garage door
opener motor operates. If the garage door opener motor does not operate,
repeat the steps from the beginning.
WARNING!
· Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are programming
the universal transceiver. Do not program the transceiver if people or pets
are in the path of the door or gate. (Continued)
WARNING!
· Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or confined area while
programming the transceiver. Exhaust gas from your vehicle contains carbon
monoxide (CO) which is odorless and colorless. Carbon monoxide is poisonous
when inhaled and can cause you and others to be severely injured or killed.
PROGRAMMING HOMELINK® TO A MISCELLANEOUS DEVICE
The procedure on how to program HomeLink® to a miscellaneous device follows
the same procedure as programming to a garage door opener page 47. Be sure to
determine if the device has a rolling code, or non-rolling code before
beginning the programming process.
NOTE: Canadian Radio Frequency (RF) laws require transmitter signals to time-
out (or quit) after several seconds of transmission, which may not be long
enough for HomeLink® to pick up the signal during programming. Similar to this
Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to time-out in the same
manner. The procedure may need to be performed multiple times to successfully
pair the device to your HomeLink® buttons.
