Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT 2018, Owner'S Manual, Page: 213 / 666

CAUTION!
•
When installing the power distribution cen-
ter cover, it is important to ensure the cover
is properly positioned and fully latched.
Failure to do so may allow water to get into
the power distribution center and possibly
result in an electrical system failure.
•
When replacing a blown fuse, it is impor-
tant to use only a fuse having the correct
amperage rating. The use of a fuse with a
rating other than indicated may result in a
dangerous electrical system overload. If a
properly rated fuse continues to blow, it
indicates a problem in the circuit that must
be corrected.

fall on you. You could be crushed. Never
put any part of your body under a vehicle
that is on a jack. If you need to get under a
raised vehicle, take it to a service center
where it can be raised on a lift.
•
Never start or run the engine while the
vehicle is on a jack.
•
The jack is designed to be used as a tool
for changing tires only. The jack should not
be used to lift the vehicle for service pur-
poses. The vehicle should be jacked on a
firm level surface only. Avoid ice or slippery
areas.
Run Flat Tires
This vehicle is equipped with “run flat” tires. Run
flat tires allow the vehicle to be driven approxi-
mately 50 miles (80km) at 55 mph (88km/h). Tire
service should be obtained to avoid prolonged
run flat feature usage.
WARNING!
Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) if the “Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” is illumi-
nated. Vehicle handling and braking may be
reduced. You could have a collision and be
severely or fatally injured.
Jack Location
The scissor-type jack and tire changing tools are
located in the rear cargo area, below the load
floor.
NOTE:
The funnel for the Cap-Less Fuel System is
located on top of the spare tire. If your vehicle is
out of fuel and an auxiliary fuel can is needed,
insert the funnel into the filler neck and proceed
to fill the vehicle. For vehicles not equipped with
a spare tire, the fuel filler funnel is stored in the
left storage bin under the load floor. For more
information on the Cap-Less Fuel System, refer
to “Refueling The Vehicle” in “Starting And Op-
erating” in this manual.
Spare Tire Stowage
The spare tire is stowed under the load floor in
the rear cargo area and is secured to the body
with a special wing nut.
