Jeep Wrangler: STARTING THE ENGINE — GASOLINE ENGINE (IF EQUIPPED) / After Starting
The idle speed is controlled automatically and
will decrease as the engine warms up.
If the engine fails to start after you have
followed the “Normal Starting” or “Extreme Cold
Weather” procedure, it may be flooded. Push
the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor and
hold it there...
Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat,
both inside and outside mirrors, and fasten your
seat belts.
The starter is allowed to crank for up to
30-second intervals...

Proper lug nut/bolt torque is very important to
ensure that the wheel is properly mounted to
the vehicle. Any time a wheel has been removed
and reinstalled on the vehicle, the lug nuts/
bolts should be torqued using a properly
calibrated torque wrench using a six sided (hex)
deep wall socket...
The AXLE LOCK switch is located on the
instrument panel (to the right of the steering
column).
