ESP JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2010 Owner handbook (in English)

In view of the many replacement parts and
accessories from various manufacturers avail-
able on the market, the manufacturer cannot be
certain that the driving safety of your vehicle
will not be impaired by the attachment or instal-
lation of such parts. Even if such parts are
officially-approved (for example, by a general
operating permit for the part or by constructing
the part in an officially approved design), or if
an individual operating permit was issued for
the vehicle after the attachment or installation
of such parts, it cannot be implicitly assumed
that the driving safety of your vehicle is unim-
paired. Therefore, neither experts nor official
agencies are liable. Therefore the manufacturer
only assumes responsibility when parts, which
are expressly authorized or recommended by
the manufacturer, are attached or installed at
an authorized dealer. The same applies when
modifications to the original condition are sub-
sequently made on the manufacturer’s ve-
hicles.Your warranties do not cover any part that the
manufacturer did not supply. Nor do they cover
the cost of any repairs or adjustments that
might be caused or needed because of the
installation or use of non-manufacturer parts,
components, equipment, materials, or addi-
tives. Nor do your warranties cover the costs of
repairing damage or conditions caused by any
changes to your vehicle that do not comply with
the manufacturers specifications.
Original Mopar
parts and accessories and
other products approved by the manufacturer,
including qualified advice, are available at your
authorized dealer.
When it comes to service, remember that your
authorized dealer knows your vehicle best, has
the factory-trained technicians and genuine
Mopar parts, and is interested in your satis-
faction.

WARNING!
Avoid trapping anyone in a vehicle in a colli-
sion. Remember that the rear doors can only
be opened from the outside when the Child-
Protection locks are engaged (locked).
NOTE:
For emergency exit from the rear seats when
the Child-Protection Door Lock System is
engaged, manually raise the door lock knob
to the unlocked position, roll down the win-
dow, and open the door using the outside
door handle.
KEYLESS ENTER-N-GOThe Passive Entry system is an enhancement to
the vehicle’s Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) sys-
tem and a feature of Keyless Enter-N-Go. This
feature allows you to lock and unlock the vehi-
cle’s door(s) without having to press the RKE
transmitter lock or unlock buttons.
NOTE:
• Passive Entry may be programmed ON/
OFF, refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)/Personal Settings (Customer-Programmable Features)” in
“Understanding Your Instrument Panel”
for further information.
• If a passive entry door handle has not
been used for 72 hours, the passive entry
feature for the handle may time out. Pull-
ing the deactivated front door handle will
reactivate the door handle’s passive entry
feature.
• If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it
has been raining on the passive entry
door handle, the unlock sensitivity can be
affected, resulting in a slower response
time.
• If you unlock the doors using the passive
entry door handles, but do NOT pull the
handle, the doors will automatically lock
after 30 seconds.
To Unlock From The Driver’s Side:
With a valid Passive Entry RKE transmitter
within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver’s door handle,
grab the driver’s front door handle to unlock the
driver’s door automatically. The interior door
panel lock knob will raise when the door is
unlocked. NOTE:
If “Unlock All Doors 1st Press” is pro-
grammed all doors will unlock when you
grab hold of the driver’s front door handle.
To select between “Unlock Driver Door 1st
Press” and “Unlock All Doors 1st Press”,
refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC)/Personal Settings (Customer-
Programmable Features)” in “Understand-
ing Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.

4. The AHR front soft foam and trim half should
lock into the back decorative plastic half.
NOTE:
•If you have difficulties or problems reset-
ting the Active Head Restraints, see an
authorized dealer.
• For safety reasons, have the Active Head
Restraints checked by a qualified special-
ist at an authorized dealer.Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder
System (BeltAlert )
BeltAlert is a feature intended to remind the
driver and front passenger (if equipped with
front passenger BeltAlert ) to fasten their seat-
belts. This feature is active whenever the igni-
tion is on. If the driver or front seat passenger is
unbelted, the Seat Belt Reminder Light will turn
on and remain on until both front seatbelts are
fastened. BeltAlert triggers within 60 seconds
of vehicle speed over 5 mph (8 km/h). The
reminder sequence lasts for 96 seconds or until
the respective seatbelts are fastened. After the
sequence completes, the Seat Belt Reminder
Light remains illuminated until front belts are
fastened. The driver should instruct all other
occupants to fasten their seatbelts. If a front
seatbelt is unbuckled while traveling at speeds
greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), BeltAlert will
chime as a single notification and illuminate the
Seat Belt Reminder Light, then will proceed to
the 96 second reminder sequence.
The front passenger seat BeltAlert is not ac-
tive when the front passenger seat is unoccu-
pied. BeltAlert may be triggered when an
animal or heavy object is on the front passen- ger seat or when the seat is folded flat (if
equipped). It is recommended that pets be
restrained in the rear seat in pet harnesses or
pet carriers that are secured by seat belts, and
cargo is properly stowed.
NOTE:
•
BeltAlert can be enabled or disabled by
your authorized dealer.
• Chrysler Group LLC does not recommend
deactivating BeltAlert .
Although BeltAlert has been deactivated,
the Seat Belt Reminder Light will continue to
illuminate while the driver seat belt remains
unfastened.
Seatbelt Lock OutThe center rear seat belt system has a lock out
feature that will not allow you to extract the
center webbing unless the rear seat upper
latch is engaged.
Seat Belts and Pregnant WomenWe recommend that pregnant women use the
seat belts throughout their pregnancy. Keeping
the mother safe is the best way to keep the
baby safe.

single chime will sound if the light comes on
again after initial startup.
It also includes diagnostics that will illuminate
the instrument cluster Airbag Warning Light if a
malfunction is noted that could affect the airbag
system. The diagnostics also record the nature
of the malfunction.
WARNING!
Ignoring the Airbag Warning Light in your
instrument panel could mean you won’t have
the airbags to protect you in a collision. If the
light does not come on, stays on after you
start the vehicle, or if it comes on as you drive,
have an authorized dealer service the airbag
system immediately.
Driver and Passenger Advanced Front
Airbag Inflator Units
The Driver and Passenger Advanced Front
Airbag Inflator Units are located in the center of
the steering wheel and the right side of the
instrument panel. When the ORC detects a
collision requiring the Advanced Front Airbags,
it signals the inflator units. A large quantity of non-toxic gas is generated to inflate the Ad-
vanced Front Airbags. Different airbag inflation
rates are possible, based on the collision type
and severity. The steering wheel hub trim cover
and the upper right side of the instrument panel
separate and fold out of the way as the airbags
inflate to their full size. The airbags fully inflate
in about 50 to 70 milliseconds. This is about half
of the time it takes to blink your eyes. The
airbags then quickly deflate while helping to
restrain the driver and front passenger.
The Advanced Front Airbag gas is vented
through the vent holes in the sides of the
airbag. In this way, the airbags do not interfere
with your control of the vehicle.
Supplemental Driver Side Knee Airbag
Inflator Unit
The driver side knee airbag unit is located in
the instrument panel trim beneath the steering
column. When the ORC detects a collision
requiring the airbag, it signals the inflator units.
A large quantity of non-toxic gas is generated
to inflate the knee airbag. The trim cover sepa-
rates and folds out of the way allowing the
airbag to inflate to the full size. The airbag fully
inflates in about 15 to 20 milliseconds.Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Airbag
(SAB) Inflator Units
The Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Airbags
are designed to activate only in certain side
collisions.
The ORC determines if a side collision requires
the side airbags to inflate based on the severity
and type of collision.
Based on the severity and type of collision, the
side airbag inflator on the crash side of the
vehicle may be triggered, releasing a quantity
of non-toxic gas. The inflating side airbag exits
through the seat seam into the space between
the occupant and the door. The side airbags
fully inflate in about 10 milliseconds. The side
airbag moves at a very high speed and with
such a high force, that it could injure you if you
are not seated properly, or if items are posi-
tioned in the area where the side airbag in-
flates. This especially applies to children.
Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable
Curtain (SABIC) Inflator Units
During collisions where the impact is confined
to a particular area of the side of the vehicle,
the ORC may deploy the SABIC airbags, de-
42

pending on the severity and type of collision. In
these events, the ORC will deploy the SABIC
only on the impact side of the vehicle.
A quantity of non-toxic gas is generated to
inflate the side curtain airbag. The inflating side
curtain airbag pushes the outside edge of the
headliner out of the way and covers the win-
dow. The airbag inflates in about 30 ms (about
one-quarter of the time that it takes to blink your
eyes) with enough force to injure you if you are
not belted and seated properly, or if items are
positioned in the area where the side curtain
airbag inflates. This especially applies to chil-
dren. The side curtain airbag is only about
3-1/2 in (9 cm) thick when it is inflated.
Because airbag sensors estimate deceleration
over time, vehicle speed and damage are not
good indicators of whether or not an airbag
should have deployed.
NOTE:
In a rollover the pretensioners, and/or SAB
and SABIC airbags may deploy on both
sides of the vehicle.Front and Side Impact Sensors
In front and side impacts, impact sensors can
aid the ORC in determining appropriate re-
sponse to impact events. Additional sensors in
the ORC determine the level of airbag deploy-
ment and provide verification.
Enhanced Accident Response System
In the event of an impact causing airbag de-
ployment, if the communication network re-
mains intact, and the power remains intact,
depending on the nature of the event the ORC
will determine whether to have the Enhanced
Accident Response System perform the follow-
ing functions:
•
Cut off fuel to the engine.
• Flash hazard lights as long as the battery
has power or until the ignition key is turned
off.
• Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as
long as the battery has power or until the
ignition key is removed.
• Unlock the doors automatically. If a Deployment Occurs
The Advanced Front Airbags are designed to
deflate immediately after deployment.
NOTE:
Front and/or side airbags will not deploy in
all collisions. This does not mean some-
thing is wrong with the airbag system.
If you do have a collision which deploys the
airbags, any or all of the following may occur:
•
The nylon airbag material may sometimes
cause abrasions and/or skin reddening to
the driver and front passenger as the air-
bags deploy and unfold. The abrasions are
similar to friction rope burns or those you
might get sliding along a carpet or gymna-
sium floor. They are not caused by contact
with chemicals. They are not permanent and
normally heal quickly. However, if you
haven’t healed significantly within a few
days, or if you have any blistering, see your
doctor immediately.

When RCP is on and the vehicle is in REVERSE,
the driver is alerted using both the visual and
audible alarms, including reducing the radio
volume.
WARNING!
RCP is not a Back Up Aid system. It is
intended to be used to help a driver detect an
oncoming vehicle in a parking lot situation.
Drivers must be careful when backing up,
even when using RCP. Always check carefully
behind your vehicle, look behind you, and be
sure to check for pedestrians, animals, other
vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots before
backing up. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death.
Modes Of OperationThree selectable modes of operation are avail-
able in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC). Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC)/Personal Settings (Customer -
Programmable Features)” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” for further information.
Blind Spot Alert
When operating in Blind Spot Alert mode, the
BSM system will provide a visual alert in the
appropriate side view mirror based on a de-
tected object. However, when the system is
operating in RCP, the system will respond with
both visual and audible alerts when a detected
object is present. Whenever an audible alert is
requested, the radio volume is reduced.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert Lights/
Chime, the BSM system will provide a visual
alert in the appropriate side view mirror based
on a detected object. If the turn signal is then
activated, and it corresponds to an alert
present on that side of the vehicle, an audible
chime will also be sounded. Whenever a turn
signal and detected object are present on the
same side at the same time, both the visual and
audio alerts will be issued. In addition to the
audible alert the radio (if on) volume will be
reduced.NOTE:
•
Whenever an audible alert is requested by
the BSM system, the radio volume is re-
duced.
• If the Hazard Flashers are on, the system
will request the appropriate visual alert
only.
When the system is in RCP, the system shall
respond with both visual and audible alerts
when a detected object is present. When-
ever an audible alert is requested, the radio
volume is reduced. Turn/hazard signal status
is ignored; the RCP state always requests
the chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off there will be
no visual or audible alerts from either the BSM
or RCP systems.
NOTE:
The BSM system will store the current oper-
ating mode when the vehicle is shut off.
Each time the vehicle is started the previ-
ously stored mode will be recalled and used.

•After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say the name of the person you want
to call. For example, you can say “John
Doe”, where John Doe is a previously stored
name entry in the Uconnect™ Phonebook or
downloaded phonebook. To learn how to
store a name in the phonebook , refer to
“Add Names to Your Uconnect™ Phone-
book”.
• The Uconnect™ Phone will confirm the name
and then dial the corresponding phone num-
ber, which may appear in the display of
certain radios.
Add Names to Your Uconnect™
Phonebook
NOTE:
Adding names to the Uconnect™ Phone-
book is recommended when the vehicle is
not in motion.
• Press the
button to begin.
• After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say “Phonebook New Entry”.
• When prompted, say the name of the new
entry. Use of long names helps the Voice Command and it is recommended. For ex-
ample, say “Robert Smith” or “Robert” in-
stead of “Bob”.
• When prompted, enter the number designa-
tion (e.g., “Home”, “Work”, “Mobile”, or
“Other”). This will allow you to store multiple
numbers for each phonebook entry, if de-
sired.
• When prompted, recite the phone number
for the phonebook entry that you are adding.
After you are finished adding an entry into the
phonebook, you will be given the opportunity to
add more phone numbers to the current entry
or to return to the main menu.
The Uconnect™ Phone will allow you to enter
up to 32 names in the phonebook with each
name having up to four associated phone
numbers and designations. Each language has
a separate 32-name phonebook accessible
only in that language. In addition, if equipped
and supported by your phone, Uconnect™
Phone automatically downloads your mobile
phone’s phonebook. Phonebook Download – Automatic
Phonebook transfer from Mobile Phone
If equipped and specifically supported by your
phone, Uconnect™ Phone automatically down-
loads names (text names) and number entries
from your mobile phone’s phonebook. Specific
Bluetooth
Phones with Phone Book Access
Profile may support this feature. See
Uconnect™ website for supported phones.
• To call a name from downloaded (or
Uconnect™) Phonebook, follow the proce-
dure in “Call by Saying a Name” section.
• Automatic download and update, if sup-
ported, begins as soon as the phone
Bluetooth wireless connection is made to
the Uconnect™ Phone. For example, after
you start the vehicle.
• Maximum of 1000 entries per phone will be
downloaded and updated every time a
phone is connected to the Uconnect™
Phone.
• Depending on the maximum number of en-
tries downloaded, there may be a short
delay before the latest downloaded names
77

If the phone is not reachable and the
Uconnect™ Phone is operational, you may
reach the emergency number as follows:
•Press the
button to begin.
• After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say “Emergency” and the Uconnect™
Phone will instruct the paired mobile phone
to call the emergency number.
NOTE:
• The default number is 112. The number
dialed may not be applicable with the
available mobile service and area.
• If supported, this number may be pro-
grammable on some systems. To do this,
press the
button and say “Setup”,
followed by “Emergency”.
• The Uconnect™ Phone does slightly
lower your chances of successfully mak-
ing a phone call as to that for the mobile
phone directly.
WARNING!
To use your Uconnect™ Phone System in an
emergency, your mobile phone must be:
• turned on,
• paired to the Uconnect™ System,
• and have network coverage.
Breakdown Service — If Equipped
If you need Breakdown service:
• Press the
button to begin.
• After the Ready prompt and the following
beep, say “Breakdown service”.
NOTE:
The Breakdown service number has to be
setup before using. To setup, press the
button and say “Setup, Breakdown Service”
and follow prompts.
Paging
To learn how to page refer to “Working with
Automated Systems”. Paging works properly
except for pagers of certain companies which
time out a little too soon to work properly with
the Uconnect™ Phone. Voice Mail Calling
To learn how to access your voice mail, refer to
“Working with Automated Systems”.
Working with Automated Systems
This method is used in instances where one
generally has to press numbers on the mobile
phone keypad while navigating through an
automated telephone system.
You can use your Uconnect™ Phone to access
a voice mail system or an automated service,
such as a paging service or automated cus-
tomer service. Some services require immedi-
ate response selection. In some instances, that
may be too quick for use of the Uconnect™
Phone.
When calling a number with your Uconnect™
Phone that normally requires you to enter in a
touch-tone sequence on your mobile phone
keypad, you can press the
button and
say the sequence you wish to enter followed by
the word “Send”. For example, if required to
enter your PIN followed with a pound, (3 7 4 6
#), you can press the
button and say, “3
746# Send”. Saying a number, or sequence of
82

numbers, followed by “Send”, is also to be
used for navigating through an automated cus-
tomer service center menu structure, and to
leave a number on a pager.
You can also send stored Uconnect™ Phone-
book entries as tones for fast and easy access
to voice mail and pager entries. To use this
feature, dial the number you wish to call and
then press the
button and say “Send.”
The system will prompt you to enter the name or
number and say the name of the phonebook
entry you wish to send. The Uconnect™ Phone
will then send the corresponding phone num-
ber associated with the phonebook entry, as
tones over the phone.
NOTE:
• You may not hear all of the tones due to
mobile phone network configurations;
this is normal.
• Some paging and voice mail systems
have system time out settings that are too
short and may not allow the use of this
feature. Barge In - Overriding Prompts
The “Voice Command” button can be used
when you wish to skip part of a prompt and
issue your voice command immediately. For
example, if a prompt is asking “Would you like
to pair a phone, clear a
,” you could press
the
button and say, “Pair a Phone” to
select that option without having to listen to the
rest of the voice prompt.
Turning Confirmation Prompts On/Off
Turning confirmation prompts off will stop the
system from confirming your choices (e.g., the
Uconnect™ Phone will not repeat a phone
number before you dial it).
• Press the
button to begin.
• After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say “Setup Confirmations”. The
Uconnect™ Phone will play the current con-
firmation prompt status and you will be given
the choice to change it.
Phone and Network Status Indicators
If available on the radio and/or on a premium
display such as the instrument panel cluster,
and supported by your mobile phone, the Uconnect™ Phone will provide notification to
inform you of your phone and network status
when you are attempting to make a phone call
using Uconnect™ Phone. The status is given
for network signal strength, phone battery
strength, etc.
Dialing Using the Mobile Phone Keypad
You can dial a phone number with your mobile
phone keypad and still use the Uconnect™
Phone (while dialing via the mobile phone
keypad, the user must exercise caution and
take precautionary safety measures). By dial-
ing a number with your paired Bluetooth
mo-
bile phone, the audio will be played through
your vehicle’s audio system. The Uconnect™
Phone will work the same as if you dial the
number using Voice Command.
NOTE:
Certain brands of mobile phones do not
send the dial ring to the Uconnect™ Phone
to play it on the vehicle audio system, so
you will not hear it. Under this situation,
after successfully dialing a number the user
may feel that the call did not go through
