Jeep Wrangler: STARTING AND OPERATING / ENGINE BLOCK HEATER — IF EQUIPPED
		
		The engine block heater warms the engine, and 
permits quicker starts in cold weather. Connect 
the cord to a standard 110-115 Volt AC 
electrical outlet with a grounded, three-wire 
extension cord.

Diesel Engine Block Heater Cord Location
The engine block heater cord is found under the 
hood bundled up next to the Power Distribution 
Center (PDC).
For diesel engines, its use is recommended for 
environments that routinely fall below -10°F 
(-23°C). It should be used when the vehicle has 
not been running for long periods of time and 
should be plugged in two hours prior to start. Its 
use is required for cold starts with temperatures 
under -20°F (-28°C).
The engine block heater cord is found under the 
hood bundled in front of the battery tray.
WARNING!
Remember to disconnect the engine block 
heater cord before driving. Damage to the 
110-115 Volt AC electrical cord could cause
