Trailer Towing Weights (Maximum Trailer Weight Ratings)
Towing Requirements
To promote proper break-in of your new
vehicle drivetrain components, the following
guidelines are recommended.Perform the maintenance listed in the
“Scheduled Servicing”. Refer to “Scheduled
Servicing” in “Servicing And Maintenance”
for the proper maintenance intervals. When
towing a trailer, never exceed the GAWR or
GCWR ratings.
Engine/Transmission
ModelMaximum Braked Trailer Weight
GTW (Gross Trailer Wt.)* Maximum Tongue Wt.
1.4L Gasoline Engine
FWD or 4WD2,205 lbs (1,000 kg) 110 lbs (50 kg)
2.0L Diesel Engine / Automatic 4WD3,307 lbs (1,500 kg) 165 lbs (75 kg)
2.0L Diesel Engine / Manual 4WD4,188 lbs (1,900 kg) 209 lbs (95 kg)
1.6L Diesel Engine FWD2,205 lbs (1,000 kg) 110 lbs (50 kg)
When towing a trailer the technically permissible laden weight may be exceeded by not more than 10% or 220 lbs (100 kg), whichever is
lower provided that the operating speed is restricted to 62 mph (100 km/h) or less.
Refer to local laws for maximum trailer towing speeds and loads.
Towing limits quoted represent the maximum towing ability of the vehicle at its Gross Combined Mass to restart on a 12 percent gradient
at sea level.
The performance and economy of all models will be reduced when used for towing.
* Trailer towing without trailer brakes is limited to 992 lbs (450 kg).
CAUTION!
Do not tow a trailer at all during the first
500 miles (805 km) the new vehicle is
driven. The engine, axle or other parts
could be damaged.
Then, during the first 500 miles
(805 km) that a trailer is towed, do not
drive over 50 mph (80 km/h) and do not
make starts at full throttle. This helps
the engine and other parts of the vehicle
wear in at the heavier loads.
CAUTION! (Continued)

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for guaranteeing a
long life for the car under the best condi-
tions. For this reason, Jeep has planned a
series of checks and services at fixed
distance intervals and, where provided, at
fixed time intervals, 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 redemption schedule.
Scheduled Servicing is offered by all autho -
rized dealerships according to fixed time or
mileage intervals. If, during each operation,
in addition to the ones scheduled, the need
arises for further replacements 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 between
one scheduled servicing operation and the next should be reduced. More frequent main
-
tenance 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 autho -
rized dealership of any small operating irreg -
ularities without waiting for the next service.
1.4L Gasoline Engine
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change
intervals exceed 9,000 miles (15,000 km)
or 12 months, whichever comes first.
Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip
Check engine oil level.
Check windshield washer fluid level.
Check tire pressure and look for unusual
wear or damage. Rotate tires at the first
sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs
before the oil indicator system turns on.
Check the fluid levels of the coolant reser -
voir and brake master cylinder, fill as
needed.
Check function of all interior and exterior
lights.
At Each Oil Change
Change oil and filter.
Rotate the tires. Rotate at the first sign of
irregular wear, even if it occurs before the
oil indicator system turns on.
Inspect battery and clean and tighten
terminals as required.
Inspect the CV/Universal joints.
Inspect brake pads, shoes, rotors, drums,
hoses and park brake.
Inspect engine cooling system protection
and hoses.
Inspect exhaust system.
Inspect engine air cleaner if using in dusty
or off-road conditions. Replace air cleaner
filter, if necessary.
Refer to the “Maintenance Plan” on the
following page for the required maintenance
intervals.

* The brake fluid change interval is time
based only, mileage intervals do not apply.
** To guarantee correct operation and
prevent serious damage to the engine, it is
essential to proceed as follows: only use
spark plugs specifically certified for these
engines; all spark plugs should be of the
same type and brand; strictly comply with
the spark plugs replacement intervals in the
Scheduled Servicing Plan. It is advised to
contact your authorized dealer for plug
replacement.
*** Areas that are not dusty: recommended
maximum distance 75,000 mi
(120,000 km). The belt must be replacedevery 6 years, regardless of distance trav
-
eled. Dusty areas and/or heavy conditions
(severe weather conditions, very low or very
high temperatures for extended 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
distance traveled.
(°) If the vehicle is used in dusty areas, this
air cleaner filter must be replaced every
9,000 mi (15,000 km).

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 compe-
tent 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.

The suggested Front Wheel Drive (FWD) Tire
rotation method is the “forward cross” shown
in the following diagram. This rotation
pattern does not apply to some directional
tires that must not be reversed.Tire Rotation (Forward Cross)
The suggested Four Wheel Drive (4WD) Tire
rotation method is the “rearward cross”
shown in the following diagram.
Tire Rotation (Rearward Cross)
STORING THE VEHICLE
If the vehicle should remain stationary for
more than a month, observe the following
precautions:
Park your vehicle in a covered, dry and
possibly airy location the windows open
slightly.
Check that the Electric Park Brake is not
engaged.
Disconnect the negative (-) terminal from
the battery post and be sure that the
battery is fully charged. During storage
check battery charge quarterly.
If you do not disconnect the battery from
the electrical system, check the battery
charge every 30 days.
Clean and protect the painted parts by
applying protective waxes.
Clean and protect polished metal parts by
applying protective waxes.
Apply talcum powder to the front and rear
wiper blades and leave raised from the
glass.
Cover the vehicle with an appropriate
cover taking care not to damage the
painted surface by dragging across dirty
surfaces. Do not use plastic sheeting
which will not allow the evaporation of
moisture present on the surface of the
vehicle.
Inflate the tires at a pressure of +7.25 psi
(+0.5 bar) higher than recommended on
the tire placard and check it periodically.
Do not drain the engine cooling system.
Whenever you leave the vehicle stationary
for two weeks or more, idle the engine for
approximately five minutes, with the air
conditioning system on and high fan
speed. This will ensure proper lubrication
of the system, thus minimizing the possi -
bility of damage to the compressor when
the vehicle is put back into operation.
CAUTION!
Proper operation of four-wheel drive
vehicles depends on tires of equal size,
type and circumference on each wheel.
Any difference in tire size can cause
damage to the power transfer unit. Tire
rotation schedule should be followed to
balance tire wear.
