INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on selecting your new FCA US LLC vehicle. Be assured that it
represents precision workmanship, distinctive styling, and high quality. This
Owner’s Manual has been prepared with the assistance of service and
engineering specialists to acquaint you with the operation and maintenance of
your vehicle. It is supplemented by Warranty Information, and various
customer-oriented documents. Please take the time to read these publications
carefully. Following the instructions and recommendations in this manual will
help assure safe and enjoyable operation of your vehicle. When it comes to
service, remember that an authorized dealer knows your Jeep® vehicle best, has
factory-trained technicians and genuine MOPAR® parts, and cares about your
satisfaction.
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Essential Information Consult the Table of Contents to determine which section
contains the information you desire. Since the specification of your vehicle
depends on the items of equipment ordered, certain descriptions and
illustrations may differ from your vehicle’s equipment. The detailed Index at
the back of this Owner’s Manual contains a complete listing of all subjects.
Symbols Some vehicle components have colored labels whose symbols indicate
precautions to be observed when using this component. Refer to “Warning Lights
and Messages” in “Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for further
information on the symbols used in your vehicle.
ROLLOVER WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of
vehicles. This 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.
9
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.
1
Rollover Warning Label 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.
10

against procedures that could result in damage to your vehicle. If you do not
read this entire Owner’s Manual, you may miss important information. Observe
all Warnings and Cautions.
VEHICLE MODIFICATIONS/ALTERATIONS

KEYS
Key Fobs Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system that consists of a key
fob and a Keyless Enter-N-Go button. NOTE: The key fob may not be found if it
is located next to a mobile phone, laptop or other electronic device; these
devices may block the key fob’s wireless signal. The key fob allows you to
lock or unlock the doors and liftgate from distances up to approximately 66 ft
(20 m) using a handheld key fob. The key fob does not need to be pointed at
the vehicle to activate the system.

Key Fob Battery Replacement 3. Remove the battery by turning the back
cover over (battery facing downward) and tapping it lightly on a solid surface
such as a table or similar object and replace the battery. When replacing the
battery, match the + sign on the battery to the + sign on the inside of the
battery clip, located on the back cover. Avoid touching the new battery with
your fingers. Skin oils may cause battery deterioration. If you touch a
battery, clean it with rubbing alcohol. 4. To assemble the key fob case, snap
the two halves together.
Programming 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. Request For Additional Key
Fobs NOTE: 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. For vehicles
equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go — Ignition, always remember to place the
ignition in the OFF mode.
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an authorized dealer. This
procedure consists of programming a blank key fob to the vehicle electronics.
A blank key fob is one that has never been programmed.
NOTE: When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer System serviced, bring all
vehicle keys with you to an authorized dealer.

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 switch to 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 ten 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 starting 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. Replacement Keys NOTE: 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.
CAUTION! Always remove the key fobs from the
vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended. For vehicles
equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go — Ignition, always remember to place the
ignition in the OFF position.
NOTE: Duplication of key fobs may be performed at your authorized dealer. This
procedure consists of programming a blank key fob to the vehicle electronics.
A blank key fob is one that has never been programmed. When having the Sentry
Key Immobilizer System serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to your
authorized dealer. Key Programming Programming key fobs may be performed at an
authorized dealer.

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM — IF EQUIPPED
The vehicle security alarm monitors the vehicle doors, hood, liftgate, and the
Keyless Enter-N-Go — Ignition for unauthorized operation. While the vehicle
security alarm is armed, interior switches for door locks and liftgate release
are disabled. If something triggers the alarm, the vehicle security alarm will
provide the following audible and visible signals: The horn will pulse
The turn signals will flash
The vehicle security light in the instrument cluster will flash
To Arm The System Follow these steps to arm the vehicle security alarm:
1. Make sure the vehicle’s ignition is placed in the OFF position. For
vehicles equipped with Keyless Entry, make sure the vehicle’s keyless ignition
system is OFF.
2. Perform one of the following methods to lock the vehicle: Push the lock
button on the interior power door lock switch with the driver and/or passenger
door open. Push the lock button on the exterior Passive Entry Door Handle with
a valid key fob available in the same exterior zone. Refer to “Doors” in this
chapter. Push the lock button on the key fob.
3. If any doors are open, close them.
When the vehicle security alarm is armed, the vehicle security light (located
in the lower left portion of the instrument cluster display) will begin to
flash every three seconds until it is disarmed. NOTE: If the system is armed
by pushing the lock button on the interior door panel, the vehicle security
light will flash rapidly for about 15 seconds once the door is closed, then
slow down to every three seconds.
To Disarm The System The vehicle security alarm can be disarmed using any of
the following methods: Push the unlock button on the key fob. Grasp the
Passive Entry door handle to
unlock the door. Refer to “Doors” in this chapter for further information.

driver’s door key cylinder and the liftgate button on the key fob cannot arm
or disarm the vehicle security alarm. The vehicle security alarm remains armed
during power liftgate entry. Pushing the liftgate button will not disarm the
vehicle security alarm. If someone enters the vehicle through the liftgate and
opens any door, the alarm will sound. When the vehicle security alarm is
armed, the interior power door lock switches will not unlock the doors.
The vehicle security alarm is designed to protect your vehicle. However, you can create conditions where the system will give you a false alarm. If one of the previously described arming sequences has occurred, the vehicle security alarm will arm regardless of whether you are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicle and open a door, the alarm will sound. If this occurs, disarm the vehicle security alarm. If the vehicle security alarm is armed and the battery becomes disconnected, the vehicle security alarm will remain armed when the battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm the vehicle security alarm. Rearming Of The System If something triggers the alarm, and no action is taken to disarm it, the vehicle security alarm will turn the horn off after approximately 90 seconds, and then the vehicle security alarm will rearm itself. Security System Manual Override The vehicle security alarm will not arm if you lock the doors using the manual door lock.

Climate Control Functions A/C (Air Conditioning) The Air Conditioning (A/C)
button allows the operator to manually activate or deactivate the air
conditioning system. When the air conditioning system is turned on, cool
dehumidified air will flow through the outlets into the cabin. For improved
fuel economy, press the A/C button to turn off the air conditioning and
manually adjust the blower and airflow mode settings. Also, make sure to
select only Panel, Bi-Level, or Floor modes. NOTE: For Manual Climate
Controls, if the system is
in Mix, Floor or Defrost Mode, the A/C can be turned off, but the A/C system
shall remain active to prevent fogging of the windows. If fog or mist appears
on the windshield or side glass, select Defrost mode, and increase blower
speed if needed. If your air conditioning performance seems lower than
expected, check the front of the A/C condenser (located in front of the
radiator), for an accumulation of dirt or insects. Clean with a gentle water
spray from the front of the radiator and through the condenser.
MAX A/C MAX A/C sets the control for maximum cooling performance. Press and
release to toggle between MAX A/C and the prior settings. The button
illuminates when MAX A/C is on. In MAX A/C, the blower level and mode position
can be adjusted to desired user settings. Pressing other settings will cause
the MAX A/C operation to switch to the selected setting and MAX A/C to exit.
Recirculation In cold weather, use of Recirculation mode may lead to excessive
window fogging. The Recirculation feature may be unavailable (button on the
touchscreen greyed out) if conditions exist that could create fogging on the
inside of the windshield. On systems with Manual Climate Controls, if
equipped, the Recirculation mode is not allowed in Defrost mode to improve
window clearing operation. Recirculation is disabled automatically if this
mode is selected. Attempting to use Recirculation while in this mode causes
the LED in the control button to blink and then turns off.
Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) Automatic Operation 1. Push the AUTO
button on the faceplate, or
the AUTO button on the touchscreen (if equipped) on the Automatic Temperature
Control (ATC) Panel. 2. Next, adjust the temperature you would like the system
to maintain by adjusting the temperature control buttons. Once the desired
temperature is displayed, the system achieves and automatically maintains that
comfort level. 3. When the system is set up for your comfort level, it is not
necessary to change the settings. You experience the greatest efficiency by
simply allowing the system to function automatically.
NOTE: It is not necessary to move the temperature
settings for cold or hot vehicles. The system automatically adjusts the
temperature, mode, and blower speed to provide comfort as quickly as possible.
The temperature can be displayed in U.S. or Metric units by selecting the
U.S./Metric customer-programmable feature.
To provide you with maximum comfort in the Automatic mode during cold start-
ups, the blower fan remains on low until the engine warms up. The blower
increases in speed and transition into Auto mode.
Manual Operation Override This system offers a full complement of manual
override features. The AUTO symbol in the front ATC display will be turned off
when the system is being used in the manual mode. Operating Tips
NOTE: Refer to the chart at the end of this section for suggested control
settings for various weather conditions.
Summer Operation The engine cooling system must be protected with a high-
quality antifreeze coolant to provide proper corrosion protection and to
protect against engine overheating. OAT coolant (conforming to MS.90032) is
recommended.
Winter Operation To ensure the best possible heater and defroster performance,
make sure the engine cooling system is functioning properly and the proper
amount, type, and concentration of coolant is used. Use of the Air
Recirculation mode during Winter months is not recommended, because it may
cause window fogging.
Vacation/Storage Before you store your vehicle, or keep it out of service
(i.e., vacation) for two weeks or more, run the air conditioning system at
idle for about five minutes, in fresh air with the blower setting on high.
This will ensure adequate system lubrication to minimize the possibility of
compressor damage when the system is started again.
Window Fogging Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in mild, rainy,
and/or humid weather. To clear the windows, select Defrost or Mix mode and
increase the front blower speed. Do not use the Recirculation mode without A/C
for long periods, as fogging may occur.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 59
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions can cause damage to the heating elements:
Use care when washing the inside of the rear window. Do not use abrasive window
2
cleaners on the interior surface of the
window. Use a soft cloth and a mild
washing solution, wiping parallel to the
heating elements. Labels can be peeled off
after soaking with warm water.
Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments, or abrasive window cleaners on the interior surface of the window.
Keep all objects a safe distance from the window.
Outside Air Intake Make sure the air intake, located directly in front of the windshield, is free of obstructions, such as leaves. Leaves collected in the air intake may reduce airflow, and if they enter the plenum, they could plug the water drains. In Winter months, make sure the air intake is clear of ice, slush, and snow.
