phone JEEP CHEROKEE 2015 KL / 5.G User Guide

This guide has been prepared to help you get quickly
acquainted with your new Jeep and to provide a convenient
reference source for common questions. However, it is not
a substitute for your Owner’s Manual.
For complete operational instructions, maintenance
procedures and important safety messages, please consult
your Owner’s Manual, Navigation/Uconnect® Manuals and
other Warning Labels in your vehicle.
Not all features shown in this guide may apply to your
vehicle. For additional information on accessories to help
personalize your vehicle, visit www.mopar.com (U.S.),
www.mopar.ca (Canada) or your local Jeep dealer.
The driver’s primary responsibility is the safe operation of the vehicle. Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control, resulting in a collision and personal injury. Chrysler Group LLC strongly recommends that the driver use extreme caution when using any device or feature that may take their attention o! the road. Use of any electrical devices, such as cellular telephones, computers, portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices, by the driver while the vehicle is moving is dangerous and could lead to a serious collision. Texting while driving is also dangerous and should never be done while the vehicle is moving. If you find yourself unable to devote your full attention to vehicle operation, pull o! the road to a safe location and stop your vehicle. Some states or provinces prohibit the use of cellular telephones or texting while driving. It is always the driver’s responsibility to comply with all local laws.
If you are the first registered retail owner of
your vehicle, you may obtain a complimentary
printed copy of the Owner’s Manual, Navigation/
Uconnect® Manuals or Warranty Booklet by calling
1-877-426-5337 (U.S.) or 1-800-387-1143 (Canada)
or by contacting your dealer.
Impor tant:
This User Guide is intended to familiarize you with the important features of your vehicle. The DVD enclosed contains your Owner’s Manual, Navigation/Uconnect® Manuals, Warranty Booklets, Tire Warranty and Roadside Assistance (new vehicles purchased in the U.S.) or Roadside Assistance (new vehicles purchased in Canada) in electronic format. We hope you find it useful. Replacement DVD kits may be purchased by visiting www.techauthority.com. Jeep® is a registered trademark of Chrysler Group LLC. © 2014 Chrysler Group LLC.
Driving and Alcohol:
Drunken driving is one of the most frequent causes of collisions. Your driving ability can be seriously impaired with blood alcohol levels far below the legal minimum. If you are drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab, a friend, or use public transportation.
Driving after drinking can lead to a collision. Your perceptions are less sharp, your reflexes are slower, and your judgment is impaired when you have been drinking. Never drink and then drive.

Rollover Warning
WARNING!
• Pedals that cannot move freely can cause loss of vehicle control and increase
the risk of serious personal injury.
• Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver foot well while the
vehicle is moving. Objects can become trapped under the brake pedal and
accelerator pedal causing a loss of vehicle control.
• Failure to properly follow floor mat installation or mounting can cause inter-
ference with the brake pedal and accelerator pedal operation causing loss of
control of the vehicle.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
• Never use the ‘PARK’ position as a substitute for the parking brake. Always
apply the parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement
and possible injury or damage.
USE OF AFTERMARKET PRODUCTS (ELECTRONICS)
The use of aftermarket devices including cell phones, MP3 players, GPS systems, or
chargers may affect the performance of on-board wireless features including Keyless
Enter-N-Go™ and Remote Start range. If you are experiencing difficulties with any of
your wireless features, try disconnecting your aftermarket devices to see if the
situation improves. If your symptoms persist, please see an authorized dealer.
