octane JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2019 Owner handbook (in English)

CAUTION!
Do not load your vehicle any heavier than
the GVWR or the maximum front and rear
GAWR. If you do, parts on your vehicle can
break, or it can change the way your ve-
hicle handles. This could cause you to lose
control. Also overloading can shorten the
life of your vehicle. Never exceed the maxi-
mum combined vehicle load value: the
maximum towable load is only allowed if it
does not exceed the maximum combined
vehicle load.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS —
GASOLINE ENGINES
3.6L Engine
These engines are designed to meet all emis-
sions regulations and provide excellent fuel
economy and performance when using high-
quality unleaded gasoline with a minimum
Research Octane Number (RON) of 91.Light spark knock at low engine speeds is not
harmful to your engine. However, continued
heavy spark knock at high speeds can cause
damage, and immediate service is required.
Besides using unleaded gasoline with the
proper octane rating, gasolines that contain
detergents, corrosion and stability additives
are recommended. Using gasolines that have
these additives may help improve fuel
economy, reduce emissions, and maintain
vehicle performance.
Poor quality gasoline can cause problems
such as hard starting, stalling and stumble. If
you experience these problems, try another
brand of gasoline before considering service
for the vehicle.
5.7L Engine
Theses engines are designed to meet all
emissions regulations and provide satisfac-
tory fuel economy and performance when
using high-quality unleaded gasoline having
an Research Octane Number (RON) of 91 to
95. The manufacturer recommends the use
of a 95 Research Octane Number for opti-
mum performance.Light spark knock at low engine speeds is not
harmful to your engine. However, continued
heavy spark knock at high speeds can cause
damage, and immediate service is required.
Poor quality gasoline can cause problems
such as hard starting, stalling, and hesita-
tions. If you experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before considering
service for the vehicle.

6.2L/6.4L Engine
Your vehicle is designed to meet all emissions
regulations and provide excellent fuel
economy and performance when using high-
quality unleaded gasoline having an Re-
search Octane Number (RON) of 98 or
higher. The manufacturer recommends the
use of 98 Research Octane Number (RON) or
higher for optimum performance.
Light spark knock at low engine speeds is not
harmful to your engine. However, continued
heavy spark knock at high speeds can cause
damage and immediate service is required.
Poor quality gasoline can cause problems
such as hard starting, stalling, and hesita-
tions. If you experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before considering
service for the vehicle.
Methanol
(Methyl) is used in a variety of concentrations
when blended with unleaded gasoline. You
may find fuels containing 3% or more metha-
nol along with other alcohols called cosol-
vents. Problems that result from using
methanol/gasoline are not the responsibility
of the manufacturer. While MTBE is an oxy-
genate made from Methanol, it does not have
the negative effects of Methanol.
WARNING!
Do not use gasolines containing Methanol.
Use of these blends may result in starting
and drivability problems and may damage
critical fuel system components.
Ethanol
The manufacturer recommends that your ve-
hicle be operated on fuel containing no more
than 15% ethanol. Purchasing your fuel from
a reputable supplier may reduce the risk of
exceeding this 15% limit and/or of receiving
fuel with abnormal properties. It should also
be noted that an increase in fuel consump-
tion should be expected when using ethanol-
blended fuels, due to the lower energy con-
tent of ethanol. Problems that result from
using methanol/gasoline or E-85 ethanol
blends are not the responsibility of the
manufacturer.
CAUTION!
Use of fuel with Ethanol content higher
than 15% may result in engine malfunc-
tion, starting and operating difficulties,
and materials degradation. These adverse
effects could result in permanent damage
to your vehicle.

FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS —
SRT
Engine
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil
that has been thoroughly developed and
tested in order to meet the requirements of
the Scheduled Servicing Plan. Constant use
of the prescribed lubricants guarantees thefuel consumption and emission specifica-
tions. Lubricant quality is crucial for engine
operation and duration. If lubricants con-
forming to the specific request are not avail-
able, products that meet the indicated speci-
fications can be used to top up, in this case
optimal performance of the engine is not
guaranteed.
