wheel JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2010 Owner handbook (in English)

A Proximity Warning will alert the driver if ACC
predicts that its maximum braking level is not
sufficient to maintain the set distance. If this
occurs, a visual alert “BRAKE” will flash in the
EVIC and a chime will sound while ACC con-
tinues to apply its maximum braking capacity.
When this occurs, you should immediately ap-
ply the brakes as needed to maintain a safe
distance from the vehicle ahead.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) MenuThe EVIC displays the current ACC system
settings. The EVIC is located in the upper part
of the instrument cluster between the speed-ometer and the tachometer. The information it
displays depends on ACC system status.
Menu Button
Press the MENU button (located
on the steering wheel) repeatedly
until one of the following displays
in the EVIC:
Adaptive Cruise Control Off When ACC is deactivated, the display willread “Adaptive Cruise Control Off.”
Adaptive Cruise Control Ready When ACC is activated but the vehiclespeed setting has not been selected, the
display will read “Adaptive Cruise Control
Ready.”
ACC SET When ACC is set, the set speed willdisplay.
The set speed will continue to display in
place of the odometer reading when
changing the EVIC display while ACC is
set. The ACC screen will display once again if any
ACC activity occurs, which may include any of
the following:
•Set Speed Change
• Distance Setting Change
• System Cancel
• Acquisition/Loss of Target
• Driver Override
• System Off
• ACC Proximity Warning
• ACC Unavailable Warning

To Resume
Press the RES+button and then remove your
foot from the accelerator pedal. The EVIC will
display the last set speed.
To Turn Off
The system will turn off and erase the set speed
in memory if:
• You push and release the ON/OFF button.
• You turn off the ignition.
• You switch off ESC.
• You engage Four-Wheel Drive Low.
If the Cruise Control system is turned off and
reactivated, the system will return to the last
driver setting (ACC or Normal Cruise Control).Forward Collision Warning —
If Equipped
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) warns the
driver of a potential collision with the vehicle in
front of you and prompts the driver to take
action in order to avoid the collision.
FCW monitors the information from the forward
looking sensor as well as the Electronic Brake
Controller (EBC), wheel speed sensors, i.e., to
calculate a probable rear-end collision. When
the system determines that a rear-end collision
is probable a visual warning is displayed on the
EVIC, and an audible warning is also provided.
When the system determines a collision with
the vehicle in front of you is no longer probable,
the warning message will be deactivated.
WARNING!
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not in-
tended to avoid a collision on its own. The
driver has the responsibility to avoid a colli-
sion by controlling the vehicle via braking and
steering. Failure to follow this warning could
lead to serious injury or death.

11. Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale LightEach tire, including the spare (if
provided), should be checked
monthly, when cold and inflated to
the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufac-
turer on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires
of a different size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label,
you should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has
been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pres-
sure telltale when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when
the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate them to the proper pres-
sure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated
tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to
tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel
efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the
vehicle’s handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s
responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure,
even if under-inflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire
pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The TPMS
malfunction indicator is combined with the low
tire pressure telltale. When the system detects
a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approxi-
mately one minute and then remain continu-
ously illuminated. This sequence will continue
upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as
the malfunction exists. When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tire pressure as
intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the
vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning
properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more tires or
wheels on your vehicle, to ensure that thereplacement or alternate tires and wheels allow
the TPMS to continue to function properly.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original
equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures
and warning have been established for the tire
size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable
system operation or sensor damage may re-
sult when using replacement equipment that
is not of the same size, type, and/or style.
Aftermarket wheels can cause sensor dam-
age. Do not use tire sealant from a can, or
balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with
a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may
result.
12. Position Light Indicator — If Equipped This indicator will illuminate when
the park lights or headlights are
turned on.
160

The light also will turn on when the parking
brake is applied with the ignition switch in the
ON/RUN position.
NOTE:
This light shows only that the parking brake
is applied. It does not show the degree of
brake application.
15. Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) LightThis light monitors the Anti-Lock
Brake System (ABS). The light will
turn on when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON/RUN position and
may stay on for as long as four
seconds.
If the ABS light remains on or turns on while
driving, it indicates that the Anti-Lock portion of
the brake system is not functioning and that
service is required. However, the conventional
brake system will continue to operate normally
if the BRAKE warning light is not on.
If the ABS light is on, the brake system should
be serviced as soon as possible to restore the
benefits of Anti-Lock brakes. If the ABS light
does not turn on when the ignition switch is turned to the ON/RUN position, have the light
inspected by an authorized dealer.
16. 4 LOW
This light alerts the driver that the
vehicle is in the four-wheel drive
LOW mode. The front and rear
driveshafts are mechanically
locked together forcing the front
and rear wheels to rotate at the
same speed. Low range provides a greater
gear reduction ratio to provide increased
torque at the wheels.
For further information on four-wheel drive op-
eration and proper use, refer to “Four-Wheel
Drive Operation — If Equipped” in “Starting
And Operating”.
17. Speedometer
Indicates vehicle speed.
18. Fuel Door Reminder The fuel pump symbol points to the
side of the vehicle where the fuel
door is located. 19. Fuel Gauge
The pointer shows the level of fuel in the fuel
tank when the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN
position.
20. Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) White Telltale Area

non-essential electrical devices or increase en-
gine speed (if at idle). If the charging system
light remains on, it means that the vehicle is
experiencing a problem with the charging sys-
tem. Obtain SERVICE IMMEDIATELY. See an
authorized dealer.
If jump starting is required, refer to “Jump
Starting Procedures” in “What To Do In Emer-
gencies”.
•Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light
This light informs you of a problem
with the Electronic Throttle Control
(ETC) system. The light will come
on when the ignition is first turned
ON and remain on briefly as a bulb
check. If the light does not come
on during starting, have the system checked by
an authorized dealer.
If a problem is detected, the light will come on
while the engine is running. Cycle the ignition
key when the vehicle has completely stopped
and the shift lever is placed in the PARK
position. The light should turn off.
If the light remains lit with the engine running
your vehicle, will usually be drivable, however, see an authorized dealer for service as soon as
possible. If the light is flashing when the engine
is running, immediate service is required and
you may experience reduced performance, an
elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your
vehicle may require towing.
•
Engine Temperature Warning Light
This light warns of an overheated en-
gine condition. As temperatures rise
and the gauge approaches H,this
indicator will illuminate and a single
chime will sound after reaching a set threshold.
Further overheating will cause the temperature
gauge to pass H,the indicator will continuously
flash and a continuous chime will occur until
the engine is allowed to cool.
If the light turns on while driving, safely pull
over and stop the vehicle. If the A/C system is
on, turn it off. Also, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL and idle the vehicle. If the tempera-
ture reading does not return to normal, turn the
engine off immediately and call for service.
Refer to “If Your Engine Overheats” in “What To
Do In Emergencies” for more information. •
Transmission Temperature Light
This light indicates that there is
excessive transmission fluid tem-
perature that might occur with se-
vere usage such as trailer towing.
It may also occur when operating
the vehicle in a high torque con-
verter slip condition, such as 4-wheel-drive
operation (e.g., snow plowing, off- road opera-
tion). If this light comes on, stop the vehicle and
run the engine at idle or faster, with the trans-
mission in NEUTRAL until the light goes off.
CAUTION!
Continuous driving with the Transmission
Temperature Indicator illuminated will eventu-
ally cause severe transmission damage or
transmission failure.
