SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for guaranteeing a
long life for the car under the best conditions.
For this reason, Jeep has planned a series of
checks and services at fixed distance inter-
vals and, where provided, at fixed time inter-
vals, 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 redemp-
tion schedule. Scheduled Servicing is offered
by all authorized dealerships according to
fixed time or mileage intervals. If, during
each operation, in addition to the ones sched-
uled, the need arises for further replace-
ments 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 be-
tween one scheduled servicing operation and
the next should be reduced. More frequentmaintenance 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 authorized dealership of
any small operating irregularities without
waiting for the next service.

WARNING!
• You can be badly injured working on or
around a motor vehicle. Do only service
work for which you have the knowledge
and the right equipment. If you have any
doubt about your ability to perform a
service job, take your vehicle to a com-
petent mechanic.
• Failure to properly inspect and maintain
your vehicle could result in a component
malfunction and effect vehicle handling
and performance. This could cause an
accident.
Heavy Duty Use Of Vehicle
**** Change the engine oil and engine oil
filter at every 4500 miles (7,500 km) or
12 months if using your vehicle under any of
the following severe duty conditions:
• Stop and go driving.
• Driving in dusty conditions.
• Short trips of less than 10 miles (16 km).
• Trailer towing.• Taxi, police, or delivery service (commercial
service).
• Off-road or desert operation.
Diesel Engines
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic
oil change indicator system. The oil change
indicator system will remind you that it is
time to take your vehicle in for engine oil
replacement.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil
change indicator message will illuminate.
This means that service is required for your
vehicle. Operating conditions such as fre-
quent short-trips, trailer tow, extremely hot or
cold ambient temperatures will influence
when the “Oil Change Required” message is
displayed. Severe Operating Conditions can
cause the change oil message to illuminate
as earlier than specified. Have your vehicle
serviced as soon as possible, within the next
500 miles (805 km).To help you have the best driving experience
possible, the manufacturer has identified the
specific vehicle maintenance service inter-
vals that are required to keep your vehicle
operating properly and safely.
The manufacturer recommends that these
maintenance intervals be performed at your
selling dealer. The technicians at your deal-
ership know your vehicle best, and have ac-
cess to factory trained information, genuine
Mopar parts, and specially designed elec-
tronic and mechanical tools that can help
prevent future costly repairs.
The maintenance intervals shown should be
performed as indicated in this section.
NOTE:
•The actual interval for changing engine oil
and replacing the engine oil filter depends on
the vehicle usage conditions, and is signaled
by the warning light or message in the instru-
ment panel. In any case, it must never exceed
12,000 miles (20,000km) or 1 year.
•Flush and replace the engine coolant at
120 months or 150,000 miles (240,000 km)
whichever comes first.

•Areas that are not dusty: recommended maxi-
mum distance 75,000 mi (120,000 km). The
belt must be replaced every 6 years, regard-
less of distance travelled. Dusty areas and/or
heavy conditions (severe weather conditions,
very low or very high temperatures for ex-
tended periods, urban driving, long periods of
idling): the recommended maximum distance
is 37,500 mi (60,000 km). The belt must be
replaced every 4 years, regardless of dis-
tance travelled.
Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip
