interior lights JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2010 Owner handbook (in English)

while the driver or passenger door is open,
press the lock button on the front driver or
passenger door handle with a valid key fob in
range, or press the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter LOCK button (refer to “Pas-
sive Entry System” in “Things To Know Before
Starting Your Vehicle” for further information).
To Disarm the System
Vehicles Not Equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go
Either press the UNLOCK button on the RKE
transmitter, or insert a valid ignition key into the
ignition switch, and turn the key to the ON/RUN
position.
NOTE:
•The driver’s door key cylinder cannot arm
or disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
• When the Vehicle Security Alarm is
armed, the interior power door lock
switches will not unlock the doors. Vehicles Equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go
Either press the UNLOCK button on the RKE
transmitter, pull on the front driver or passenger
door handle (refer to “Passive Entry System” in
“Things To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle”
for further information) with a valid key fob in
range, or press the Keyless Enter-N-Go Start/
Stop button (requires at least one valid Key Fob
in the vehicle), or insert a valid Key Fob into the
ignition switch (if the Start/Stop button is re-
moved) and rotate it to the ON/RUN position.
The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to pro-
tect your vehicle; however, you can create
conditions where the Vehicle Security Alarm will
give you a false alarm. If one of the previously-
described arming sequences has occurred,
the Vehicle Security Alarm will arm, regardless
of whether you are in the vehicle or not. If you
remain in the vehicle and open a door, the
alarm will sound. If this occurs, disarm the
Vehicle Security Alarm.
If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed, and the
battery becomes disconnected, the Vehicle Security Alarm will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected. The exterior lights will
flash, the horn will sound, and the ignition will
not start the vehicle. If this occurs, disarm the
Vehicle Security Alarm.
ILLUMINATED ENTRYThe interior lights come on when you open any
door or use the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter to unlock any door. They will remain
on for approximately 30 seconds after all doors
are closed then fade to off.
The lights also will fade to off if you turn on the
ignition after you close all the doors. Refer to
“Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)/
Personal Settings (Customer-Programmable
Features)” in “Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
NOTE:
None of the courtesy lights will operate if the
dimmer control is in the “defeat” position
(extreme downward position), unless the
overhead map/reading lights are turned on
manually.

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.

Headlight DelayTo aid in your exit, your vehicle is equipped with
a headlight delay that will leave the headlights
on for approximately 90 seconds. This delay is
initiated when the ignition is turned OFF while
the headlight switch is on, and then the head-
light switch is cycled off. Headlight delay can
be cancelled by either turning the headlight
switch on then off, or by turning the ignition ON.
The headlight delay time is programmable on
vehicles equipped with an Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC). Refer to “Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)/Customer-
Programmable Features” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” for further information.
Parking Lights and Panel Lights
To turn on the parking lights and instru-
ment panel lights, rotate the headlight
switch clockwise. To turn off the park-
ing lights, rotate the headlight switch back to
the O (Off) position.
Front and Rear Fog Lights —
If Equipped
The front and rear fog lights may be operated
as desired when visibility is poor due to fog.
The fog lights will activate in the following order:
Press the headlight switch once and the front
fog lights come on. Press the switch a second
time and the rear fog lights will come on (front
fog lights stay on). Press the switch a third time
and the rear fog lights turn off (front fog stays
on). Press the switch a fourth times and the
front fog turns off. For vehicles without front fog,
rear fog will activate on the first press.
Interior LightsCourtesy and dome lights are turned on when
the front doors are opened, when the dimmer
control (rotating wheel on the right side of the
headlight switch) is rotated to the its farthest
upward position, or if equipped, when the UN-
LOCK button is pressed on the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter. When a door is open
and the interior lights are on, rotating the dim-
mer control all the way down, to the OFF detent,
will cause all the interior lights to go out. This is
also known as the “Party” mode because it
allows the doors to stay open for extended
periods of time without discharging the vehi-
cle’s battery.
Fog Light Operation

The brightness of the instrument panel lighting
can be regulated by rotating the dimmer con-
trol up (brighter) or down (dimmer). When the
headlights are on you can supplement the
brightness of the odometer, trip odometer, radio
and overhead console by rotating the control to
its farthest position up until you hear a click.
This feature is termed the “Parade” mode and
is useful when headlights are required during
the day.Lights-on ReminderIf the headlights, parking lights, or cargo lights
are left on after the ignition is turned OFF, a
chime will sound when the driver’s door is
opened.
Battery SaverTo protect the life of your vehicle’s battery, load
shedding is provided for both the interior and
exterior lights.
If the ignition is OFF and any door is left ajar for
10 minutes or the dimmer control is rotated all
the way up to the dome ON position for 10 min-
utes, the interior lights will automatically turn off.
If the headlights remain on while the ignition is
cycled OFF, the exterior lights will automatically
turn off after eight minutes. If the headlights are
turned on and left on for eight minutes while the
ignition is OFF, the exterior lights will automati-
cally turn off.
NOTE:
Battery saver mode is cancelled if the igni-
tion is ON.
Front Map/Reading Lights
The front map/reading lights are mounted in the
overhead console.
Each light can be turned on by pressing a
switch on either side of the console. These
buttons are backlit for night time visibility. To
turn the lights off, press the switch a second
time. The lights will also turn on when the
UNLOCK button on the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) is pressed.

sive Entry equipped door handle is grasped.
If Driver Door 1st Press is programmed, only
the driver’s door will unlock when the driv-
er’s door is grasped. With Passive Entry, if
Driver Door 1st Press is programmed touch-
ing the handle more than once will only
result in the driver’s door opening. If driver
door first is selected, once the driver door is
opened, the interior door lock/unlock switch
can be used to unlock all doors (or use RKE
transmitter).
RKE Linked To Memory
When this feature is selected, you can use your
RKE transmitter to recall one of two pre-
programmed memory profiles. Each memory
profile contains desired position settings for the
driver seat, side mirror, adjustable pedals (if

Flash Lamps With Lock
When this feature is selected, the front and rear
turn signals will flash when the doors are locked
or unlocked with the RKE transmitter. This fea-
ture may be selected with or without the sound
horn on lock feature selected. To make your
selection, press and release the SELECT but-
ton until a check-mark appears next to the
feature showing the system has been activated
or the check-mark is removed, showing the
system has been deactivated.
Headlamp Off Delay
When this feature is selected, the driver can
choose to have the headlights remain on for 0,
30, 60, or 90 seconds when exiting the vehicle.
To make your selection, scroll up or down until
the preferred setting is highlighted, then press
and release the SELECT button until a check-mark appears next to the setting, showing that
setting has been selected.
Headlamps with Wipers (Available with
Automatic Headlamps Only)
When this feature is selected, and the headlight
switch is in the AUTO position, the headlights
will turn on approximately 10 seconds after the
wipers are turned on. The headlights will also
turn off when the wipers are turned off if they
were turned on by this feature. To make your
selection, press and release the SELECT but-
ton until a check-mark appears next to the
feature showing the system has been activated
or the check-mark is removed, showing the
system has been deactivated.
NOTE:
Turning the headlights on during the day-

•Or, disconnect the negative cable from the
battery.
• Anytime you store your vehicle, or keep it out
of service (i.e. vacation) for two weeks or
more, run the air conditioning system at idle
for about five minutes in the fresh air and
high blower setting. This will ensure ad-
equate system lubrication to minimize the
possibility of compressor damage when the
system is started again.

BULB REPLACEMENT
High Intensity Discharge Headlamps
(HID) – If Equipped
The headlamps are a type of high voltage
discharge tube. High voltage can remain in the
circuit even with the headlamp switch off and
the key removed. Because of this, you should
not attempt to service a headlamp bulb your-
self. If a headlamp bulb fails, take your
vehicle to an authorized dealer for service.
WARNING!
A transient high tension occurs at the bulb
sockets of High Intensity Discharge (HID)
headlamps when the headlamp switch is
turned ON. It may cause serious electrical
shock or electrocution if not serviced properly.
See your authorized dealer for service.
NOTE:
On vehicles equipped with High Intensity
Discharge (HID) headlamps , when the head-
lamps are turned on, there is a blue hue to
the lamps. This diminishes and becomes
