rear view mirror JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2010 Owner handbook (in English)

MIRRORS
Inside Day/Night Mirror
A single ball joint mirror is provided in the
vehicle. It is a twist on mirror that has a fixed
position. The mirror head can be adjusted up,
down, left, and right for various drivers. The
mirror should be adjusted to center on the view
through the rear window.
Headlight glare from vehicles behind you can
be reduced by moving the small control under
the mirror to the night position (toward the rear
of the vehicle). The mirror should be adjusted
while set in the day position (toward the wind-
shield).
Automatic Dimming Mirror —
If Equipped
This mirror automatically adjusts for headlight
glare from vehicles behind you. You can turn
the feature on or off by pressing the button at
the base of the mirror. A light in the button will
illuminate to indicate when the dimming feature
is activated. The mirror is twisted on the wind-
shield button counterclockwise and requires no
tools for mounting.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the mirror during clean-
ing, never spray any cleaning solution directly
onto the mirror. Apply the solution onto a clean
cloth and wipe the mirror clean.
Outside MirrorsTo receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside
mirrors to center on the adjacent lane of traffic
with a slight overlap of the view obtained on the
inside mirror.
WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in the pas-
senger side convex mirror will look smaller
and farther away than they really are. Relying
too much on your passenger side convex
mirror could cause you to collide with another
vehicle or other object. Use your inside mirror
when judging the size or distance of a vehicle
seen in the passenger side convex mirror.
Some vehicles will not have a convex passen-
ger side mirror.

Illuminated Vanity MirrorsTo access an illuminated vanity mirror, flip down
one of the visors.
Lift the cover to reveal the mirror. The light will
turn on automatically.
Sun Visor Extension — If EquippedThis feature has a pull out extension on the sun
visor for increased coverage.
BLIND SPOT MONITORING —
IF EQUIPPED
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system uses
two radar-based sensors, located inside the
rear bumper fascia, to detect Highway licens-
able vehicles (automobiles, trucks, motor-
cycles etc.) that enter the blind spot zones from
the rear/front/side of the vehicle.
When the vehicle is started, the BSM warning
light will be momentarily illuminated in both
outside rear view mirrors to let the driver know
that the system is operational. The BSM system
sensors operate when the vehicle is in anyforward gear or REVERSE and enters stand by
mode when the vehicle is in PARK.
The BSM detection zone covers approximately
one lane on both sides of the vehicle (11 ft or
3.35 m). The zone starts at the outside rear view
mirror and extends approximately 20 ft (6 m) to
the rear of the vehicle. The BSM system moni-
tors the detection zones on both sides of the
vehicle when the vehicle speed has reached
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h) or higher and
will alert the driver of vehicles in these areas.
NOTE:
•
The BSM system does NOT alert the
driver about rapidly approaching vehicles
that are outside the detection zones.
•
The BSM system detection zone DOES
NOT change if your vehicle is towing a
trailer. Therefore, visually verify the adja-
cent lane is clear for both your vehicle and
trailer before making a lane change. If the
trailer or other object (i.e., bicycle, sports
equipment) extends beyond the side of
your vehicle, this may result in the BSM
warning light remaining illuminated the
entire time the vehicle is in a forward gear.Illuminated Vanity Mirror

The BSM system will not alert you of objects
that are traveling in the opposite direction of the
vehicle in adjacent lanes.WARNING!
The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only an
aid to help detect objects in the blind spot
zones. The BSM system is not designed to
detect pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals.
Even if your vehicle is equipped with the BSM
system, always check your vehicles mirrors,
glance over your shoulder, and use your turn
signal before changing lanes. Failure to do so
can result in serious injury or death.
Rear Cross PathThe Rear Cross Path (RCP) feature is intended
to aid the driver when backing out of parking
spaces where their vision of oncoming vehicles
may be blocked. Proceed slowly and cau-
tiously out of the parking space until the rear
end of the vehicle is exposed. The RCP system
will then have a clear view of the cross traffic
and if an oncoming vehicle is detected, alert
the driver.RCP monitors the rear detection zones on both
sides of the vehicle, for objects that are moving
toward the side of the vehicle with a minimum
speed of approximately 1 to 2 mph (1 km/h to
3 km/h), to objects moving a maximum of
approximately 10 mph (16 km/h), such as in
parking lot situations.
NOTE:
In a parking lot situation, oncoming vehicles
can be obscured by vehicles parked on
either side. If the sensors are blocked by
other structures or vehicles, the system will
not be able to alert the driver.Opposing Traffic

clean your leather upholstery. Application of a
leather conditioner is not required to maintain
the original condition.
WARNING!
Do not use volatile solvents for cleaning pur-
poses. Many are potentially flammable, and if
used in closed areas, they may cause respi-
ratory harm.
Cleaning Headlights
Your vehicle has plastic headlights that are
lighter and less susceptible to stone breakage
than glass headlights.
Plastic is not as scratch-resistant as glass and
therefore different lens cleaning procedures
must be followed.
To minimize the possibility of scratching the
lenses and reducing light output, avoid wiping
with a dry cloth. To remove road dirt, wash with
a mild soap solution followed by rinsing. Do not use abrasive cleaning components,
solvents, steel wool or other aggressive mate-
rial to clean the lenses.
Glass Surfaces
All glass surfaces should be cleaned on a
regular basis with MOPAR
Glass Cleaner or
any commercial household-type glass cleaner.
Never use an abrasive type cleaner. Use cau-
tion when cleaning inside rear windows
equipped with electric defrosters. Do not use
scrapers or other sharp instruments which may
scratch the elements.
When cleaning the rearview mirror, spray
cleaner on the towel or rag that you are using.
Do not spray cleaner directly on the mirror.
Cleaning Plastic Instrument Cluster Lenses
The lenses in front of the instruments in this
vehicle are molded in clear plastic. When
cleaning the lenses, care must be taken to
avoid scratching the plastic. 1. Clean with a wet soft rag. A mild soap
solution may be used, but do not use high
alcohol content or abrasive cleaners. If soap is
used, wipe clean with a clean damp rag.
2. Dry with a soft tissue.
Seat Belt Maintenance
Do not bleach, dye or clean the belts with
chemical solvents or abrasive cleaners. This
will weaken the fabric. Sun damage will also
weaken the fabric.
If the belts need cleaning, use MOPAR
Total
Clean, a mild soap solution, or lukewarm water.
Do not remove the belts from the vehicle to
wash them.
Replace the belts if they appear frayed or worn
or if the buckles do not work properly.
Dry with a soft tissue.
