Stop Safely And Leave The Vehicle As Soon As Possible — PHEV Only
Stop Safely And Leave The Vehicle As Soon As Possible Warning Message A warning will appear on the instrument panel display if the system detects the high-voltage battery has overheated. This can result in a vehicle fire and the release of toxic and/or flammable gases. To reduce the risk of a larger fire, the vehicle’s high-voltage propulsion system will turn off within thirty seconds of displaying this warning. At that time, the vehicle may not accelerate. You can still steer and brake the vehicle. Stop and park the vehicle in an open area. Have all passengers exit the vehicle as soon as possible and move to a safe distance away from the vehicle. After all, passengers safely exit the vehicle and call emergency responders immediately. Even if you do not see flames, a fire may start at any moment, so do not attempt to re-enter or start the vehicle.
- This message will be displayed continuously.
- Cannot be cleared with a button press.
- A continuous and rapid chime will sound.
CAUTION! If the instrument cluster instructs you to change the engine oil, do not reset the service indicator without changing the oil. Engine damage may result. CAUTION!
- An overheated High Voltage Battery may result in electrical system damage. Do not attempt to restart the vehicle. The vehicle must be towed to an authorized dealer.
OIL CHANGE RESET — IF EQUIPPED
- Without pushing the brake pedal, place the ignition in the ON/RUN mode (do not start the engine).
- Navigate to the “Oil Life” submenu in “Vehicle Info” in the instrument cluster display.
- Push and hold the OK button until the gauge resets to 100%.
Secondary Method For Oil Change Reset Procedure
- Without pushing the brake pedal, place the ignition in the ON/RUN position (do not start the engine).
- Fully press the accelerator pedal, slowly, three times within ten seconds.
- Without pushing the brake pedal, place the ignition in the OFF position.
NOTE: If the indicator message illuminates when you start the vehicle, the oil change indicator system does not reset. If necessary, repeat this procedure.
ELECTRIC MODE TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE
If Electric Drive mode is unavailable, the reason will display for five seconds at startup. If your check engine light comes on, see an authorized dealer immediately.
Electric Mode Temporarily Unavailable Message See the following information for the most common reasons that the Electric mode would be unavailable: Operator Choices that can inhibit Electric mode
- Transmission in Manual Shift mode – Shift to Drive to use Electric mode.
- Heavily depressed accelerator pedal position, requesting high power demand – Beyond the limits of the electric drivetrain, will cause the engine to run, enabling the powertrain to produce its full combined power available in Hybrid mode.
- Sustained high-speed operation in Electric mode -Using the engine is more efficient for high speeds than Electric drive.
- Transfer case and drive mode selection – eSave mode almost always runs the engine. Hybrid mode, in 4WD Low, will also run the engine.
- Electric range is depleted – You need to recharge to enjoy Electric mode, or you can continue normally in Hybrid.
- Hood open (or a hood switch fault) – This is to prevent unexpected engine starts with the hood open.
Thermal Protection that can inhibit Electric mode
- Engine, transmission, or engine starting belt too cold – Some systems require warm-up to function properly if the outside temperature is below 32°F (15°F in Electric Drive mode).
- Electric cabin heating capacity limits (or electric cabin heater fault) – Unlike Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs), the PHEV Wrangler can warm the cabin more efficiently with engine heat when operating below 15°F outside temperature.
- HV battery, motors, or contactors over temperature -This is a temporary hardware protection feature. Vehicle performance will resume once protection is no longer required. If the vehicle performance is accompanied by a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) , have the vehicle serviced at an authorized dealership.
Component Protection that can inhibit Electric mode
- HV battery Undervoltage – Sustained EV operation at high speed, especially with aftermarket wheels and tires, can induce this.
- Other electric propulsion system faults indicated by a MIL – Please bring the vehicle to your dealership for service.
- Fuel And Oil Refresh mode – See the following section.
Fuel And Oil Refresh Mode
Since it is possible to operate this vehicle for extended periods of time without running the gas engine, the fuel within the vehicle’s fuel tank can become stale or the engine oil’s lubricating properties can be reduced. To prevent engine and/or fuel system damage due to stale fuel, as well as maintain internal engine lubrication, this vehicle is equipped with a Fuel and Oil Refresh mode.
Fuel And Oil Refresh Mode Message The vehicle will automatically enter into the Fuel and Oil Refresh mode to minimize potential for stale fuel, and to ensure lubrication of internal engine components. When operating in this mode, the gas engine will run to provide vehicle propulsion (electric-only operation is inhibited). A message will be displayed in the instrument cluster whenever Fuel and Oil Refresh mode is active. The vehicle will automatically exit the Fuel and Oil Refresh mode when fuel and lubrication conditions have been satisfied. If the vehicle enters Fuel and Oil Refresh mode, due to fuel that has been in the fuel tank for a long period of time (becoming stale fuel), the engine will run whenever the vehicle is operational (no electric-only operation) until the low fuel level warning is activated. It is also possible to exit the Fuel and Oil Refresh mode sooner by adding a minimum of four gallons (15 Liters) of new fuel to the vehicle’s fuel tank.
NOTE: If the vehicle enters Fuel and Oil Refresh mode to maintain engine lubrication, adding fuel will not exit the mode sooner. If the vehicle enters Fuel and Oil Refresh mode to maintain engine lubrication properties, the engine may run for a period of up to 2.5 hours when fully warm whenever the vehicle is operational (no electric-only operation). If the vehicle is shut down before conditions to exit the refresh mode have been satisfied, the engine may run for additional time on subsequent trips. Oil refresh may take significantly longer in freezing temperatures.
NOTE:
- Frequent short trips at low ambient temperature conditions where the engine does not reach normal operating temperatures are more likely to trigger the lubrication-based mode.
- And Oil Refresh Mode (FORM) is active. Do not attempt to return to Electric Mode until the FORM cycle is complete.
CAUTION! If the instrument cluster instructs you to change the engine oil, do not reset the service indicator without changing the oil. Engine damage may result.
DISPLAY AND MESSAGES
The instrument cluster display is located in the center portion of the cluster and consists of multiple sections:
- Main Screen — The inner ring of the display will illuminate in black under normal conditions, yellow for noncritical warnings, and red for critical warnings
- Submenu Dots — Whenever there are submenus available, the position within the submenus is shown here
- Reconfigurable Telltales/Information

The instrument cluster display will normally display the main menu or the screens of a selected feature of the main menu. The main display area also displays pop-up messages and warning or information messages. These pop-up messages fall into several categories:
- Five-Second Stored Messages When the appropriate conditions occur, this type of message takes control of the main display area for five seconds and then returns to the previous screen. Most of the messages of this type are then stored (as long as the condition that activated it remains active) and can be reviewed from the “Mes-sages” main menu item. Examples of this message type are “Right Front Turn Signal Lamp Out” and “Low Tire Pressure”.
- Unstored Messages This message type is displayed indefinitely or until the condition that activated the message is cleared. Examples of this message type are “Turn Signal On” (if a turn signal is left on) and “Lights On” (if the driver leaves the vehicle with the lights on).
- Unstored Messages Until RUN These messages deal primarily with the Remote Start feature. This message type is displayed until the ignition is in the RUN state. Examples of this message type are “Remote Start Canceled – Door Ajar” and “Press Brake Pedal and Push Button to Start”.
- Five-Second Unstored Messages When the appropriate conditions occur, this type of message takes control of the main display area for five seconds and then returns to the previous screen. An example of this message type is “Automatic High Beams On”.
