light JEEP CHEROKEE 2018 Owner handbook (in English)

Remove your foot from the accelerator pedal.
If you do not, the vehicle may continue to
accelerate beyond the set speed. If this oc-
curs:
• The message “DRIVER OVERRIDE” willappear in the instrument cluster display.
• The system will not be controlling the dis- tance between your vehicle and the vehicle
ahead. The vehicle speed will only be de-
termined by the position of the accelerator
pedal.
Varying The Speed
Once the ACC has been activated, the speed
can be increased or decreased.
NOTE:
• When you override and push the SET (+)
button or SET (-)buttons, the new set
speed will be the current speed of the
vehicle.
• When you use the SET (-)button to decel-
erate, if the engine’s braking power does
not slow the vehicle sufficiently to reach
the set speed, the brake system will auto-
matically slow the vehicle. • The ACC system applies the brake down to
a full stop when following a target vehicle.
If an ACC host vehicle follows a target
vehicle to a standstill, the host vehicle will
release the vehicle brakes two seconds af-
ter coming to a full stop.
• The ACC system maintains set speed when driving up hill and down hill. However, a
slight speed change on moderate hills is
normal. In addition, downshifting may oc-
cur while climbing uphill or descending
downhill. This is normal operation and nec-
essary to maintain set speed. When driving
up hill and down hill, the ACC system will
cancel if the braking temperature exceeds
normal range (overheated).
To Increase Speed
While ACC is set, you can increase the set
speed by pushing the SET (+)button.
The driver's preferred units can be selected
through the instrument panel settings if
equipped. Refer to “Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel” in the Owner’s Manual for
further information. The speed increment
shown is dependant on the chosen speed unit
of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h): U.S. Speed (mph)
• Pushing the SET
(+)button once will result
in a 1 mph increase in set speed. Each
subsequent tap of the button results in an
increase of 1 mph.
• If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to increase in 5 mph
increments until the button is released.
The increase in set speed is reflected in the
instrument cluster display.
Metric Speed (km/h)
• Pushing the SET (+)button once will result
in a 1 km/h increase in set speed. Each
subsequent tap of the button results in an
increase of 1 km/h.
• If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will continue to increase in 10 km/h
increments until the button is released.
The increase in set speed is reflected in the
instrument cluster display.
To Decrease Speed
While ACC is set, the set speed can be de-
creased by pushing the SET (-)button.
STARTING AND OPERATING

and the system is disabled, the instrument
cluster display will show the “PARKSENSE
OFF” message for as long as the vehicle is in
REVERSE.
The ParkSense switch LED will be on when
ParkSense is disabled or requires service.
The ParkSense switch LED will be off when
the system is enabled. If the ParkSense
switch is pushed, and requires service, the
ParkSense switch LED will blink momen-
tarily, and then the LED will be on.
Engagement/Disengagement
To disengage the system, push the ParkSense
switch, located on the switch panel below the
Uconnect display.
When the system passes from engaged to
disengaged and vice versa, it is always ac-
companied by a dedicated message in the
instrument cluster display.
System engaged:ParkSense switch LED off.
System disengaged: ParkSense switch LED on
constantly. The ParkSense switch LED lights up also in
the case of a ParkSense system failure. If the
button is pushed with a system failure, the
ParkSense switch LED flashes for about
5 seconds, then it stays on constantly.
After the ParkSense has been disengaged, it
will stay in this condition until the following
engagement, even if the ignition device
passes from ON/RUN to OFF and then again
to ON/RUN.
Operation With A Trailer
The operation of the sensors is automatically
deactivated when the trailer's electric plug is
inserted in the vehicle's tow hook socket. The
sensors are automatically reactivated when
the trailer's cable plug is removed.
General Warnings
If “PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE REAR
SENSORS" or "PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE
WIPE FRONT SENSORS” appears in the in-
strument cluster display, clean the
ParkSense sensors with water, car wash soap
and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or hard
cloths. Do not scratch or poke the sensors.
Otherwise, you could damage the sensors.
PARKSENSE ACTIVE PARK
ASSIST
Enabling And Disabling ParkSense Active
Park Assist
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system can
be enabled and disabled with the ParkSense

WARNING!
up. You must continue to pay attention
while backing up. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
• To avoid vehicle damage, ParkViewshould only be used as a parking aid.
The ParkView camera is unable to view
every obstacle or object in your drive
path.
• To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle
must be driven slowly when using
ParkView to be able to stop in time when
an obstacle is seen. It is recommended
that the driver look frequently over his/
her shoulder when using ParkView.
REFUELING THE VEHICLE
The gas cap is located behind the fuel filler
door, on the passenger side of the vehicle. If
the gas cap is lost or damaged, be sure the
replacement cap has been designed for use
with this vehicle. NOTE:
When removing the fuel filler cap, lay the cap
tether in the hook, located on the fuel filler
door reinforcement.
1. Push the fuel filler door release switch
(located on the driver’s side door trim).
2. Open the fuel filler door, and remove the fuel filler cap. NOTE:
• In certain cold conditions, ice may prevent
the fuel door from opening. If this occurs,
lightly push on the fuel door to break the ice
buildup and re-release the fuel door using
the inside release button. Do not pry on the
door.
• When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the fuel tank is full.
• Tighten the gas cap about one quarter turn until you hear one click. This is an indica-
tion that the cap is properly tightened.
• If the gas cap is not tightened properly, the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) will
come on. Be sure the gas cap is tightened
every time the vehicle is refueled.
WARNING!
• Never have any smoking materials lit in or near the vehicle when the fuel door is
open or the tank is being filled.
Fuel Filler Cap (Gas Cap)
155

WARNING!
• Never add fuel when the engine is run-ning. This is in violation of most coun-
tries regulations and may cause the
“Malfunction Indicator Light” to turn
on.
• A fire may result if fuel is pumped into a
portable container that is inside of a
vehicle. You could be burned. Always
place fuel containers on the ground
while filling.
CAUTION!
• Damage to the fuel system or emissioncontrol system could result from using
an improper fuel filler cap. A poorly
fitting cap could let impurities into the
fuel system. Also, a poorly fitting after-
market cap can cause the “Malfunction
Indicator Light (MIL)” to illuminate, due
to fuel vapors escaping from the system.
• A poorly fitting fuel filler cap may cause
the MIL to turn on.
CAUTION!
• To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, donot “top off” the fuel tank after filling.
• If fuel is spilled on surface on the paint,
clear it immediately to avoid damage the
paint.

Replacing Exterior Bulbs
Bi-Xenon High Intensity Discharge (HID)
Headlamps — If Equipped
The headlamps contain a type of high voltage
discharge light source. High voltage can re-
main in the circuit even with the headlamp
switch off. Because of this, you should not
attempt to service a HID headlamp light source yourself. If an HID headlamp light
source fails, take your vehicle to an autho-
rized dealer for service.
NOTE:
On vehicles equipped with HID headlamps,
when the headlamps are turned on, there is a
blue hue to the lights. This diminishes and
becomes more white after approximately
10 seconds, as the system charges.
WARNING!
A transient high voltage occurs at the bulb
sockets of HID headlamps when the head-
lamp switch is turned ON. It may cause
serious electrical shock or electrocution if
not serviced properly. See your authorized
dealer for service.
