2008 JEEP LIBERTY instrument cluster

Rearming of the System:
If something triggers the alarm, and no action is taken to
disarm it, the system will turn off the horn after 3
minutes, turn off all of the visual signals after 15 minutes,
and then the system will rearm itself.
To Arm the System:
1. Remove the key from the ignition switch and exit the
vehicle.
2. Lock the doors and liftgate by pressing the power door
lock switch or the Lock button on the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter.
NOTE:The system will not arm if you lock the doors
with the manual door lock plungers or the driver's door
lock cylinder.
3. Close all doors. The Vehicle Security Alarm Indicator
Light in the instrument cluster will flash rapidly for
about 16 seconds to signal that the system is arming.During this period, opening any door or the liftgate will
cancel the arming process. If the system arms success-
fully, the Vehicle Security Alarm Indicator Light will flash
at a slower rate to indicate the alarm is set.
NOTE:For added security, whenever the Security
Alarm is armed, the HomeLinkt/Garage Door Opener
(if equipped) is disabled as well.
To Disarm the System:
Either press the Unlock button on the RKE transmitter or
insert a valid sentry key into the ignition lock cylinder
and turn the key to the ON position.
NOTE:
²Unlocking the doors with the manual door lock plung-
ers or the driver's door lock cylinder will not disarm
the system.
²When the system is armed, the interior power door
lock switches will not unlock the doors.

will cause the system to turn the airbag on. In this case,
the OCS has classified the occupant of the seat as an
adult. An adult occupant needs to sit in a normal position
(with their feet on or near the floor) in order to be
properly classified. Reclining the seat back too far may
change how an occupant is classified by the OCS.
Drivers and adult passengers should verify that the
ªPAD Indicator Lightº is not illuminated when an adult
is riding in the front passenger seat. If an adult occu-
pant's weight is transferred to another part of the vehicle
(like the door or instrument panel), the weight sensors in
the seat may not properly classify the occupant. Objects
lodged under the seat or between the seat and the center
console can prevent the occupant's weight from being
measured properly and may result in the occupant being
improperly classified. Ensure that the front passenger
seat back does not touch anything placed on the back seatbecause this can also affect occupant classification. Also,
if you fold down the rear seat check to be sure it doesn't
touch the front passenger seat.
If the front passenger seat is damaged in any way, it
should only be serviced by an authorized dealer. If the
seat is removed (or even if the seat attachment bolts are
loosened or tightened in any way), take the vehicle to an
authorized dealer.
If there is a fault present in the OCS, the ªAirbag Warning
Lightº (a red light located in the center of the instrument
cluster directly in front of the driver) will be turned on.
This indicates that you should take the vehicle to an
authorized dealer. The ªAirbag Warning Lightº is turned
on whenever there is a fault that can affect the operation
of the airbag system. If there is a fault present in the OCS,
both the ªPAD Indicator Lightº and the ªAirbag Warning
Lightº are illuminated to show that the passenger airbag
is turned off until the fault is cleared. If an object is

listen to the rest of the voice prompt.
Turning Confirmation Prompts On/Off
Turning confirmation prompts off will stop the system
from confirming your choices (e.g., the UConnecttsys-
tem will not repeat a phone number before you dial it).
²Press the ªPhoneº button to begin.
²After the9Ready9prompt and the following beep, say
9Setup Confirmations.9The UConnecttsystem will
play the current confirmation prompt status and you
will be given the choice to change it.
Phone and Network Status Indicators
If available on the radio and/or on a premium display
such as the instrument panel cluster, and supported by
your cell phone, the UConnecttsystem will provide
notification to inform you of your phone and networkstatus when you are attempting to make a phone call
using UConnectt. The status is given for roaming, net-
work signal strength, phone battery strength, etc.
Dialing Using the Cellular Phone Keypad
You can dial a phone number with your cellular phone
keypad and still use the UConnecttsystem (while dial-
ing via the cell phone keypad, the user must exercise
caution and take precautionary safety measures). By
dialing a number with your paired BluetoothŸ cellular
phone, the audio will be played through your vehicle's
audio system. The UConnecttsystem will work the same
as if you dial the number using voice recognition.
NOTE:Certain brands of mobile phones do not send the
dial ring to the UConnecttsystem to play it on the
vehicle audio system, so you will not hear it. Under this
situation, after successfully dialing a number, the user

Vehicles equipped with a manual transmission may need
to be shifted into a lower gear to climb hills without
speed loss.
WARNING!
Speed Control can be dangerous where the system
can't maintain a constant speed. Your vehicle could
go too fast for the conditions, and you could lose
control. An accident could be the result. Don't use
Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads that are
winding, icy, snow-covered, or slippery.
REAR PARK ASSIST SYSTEM Ð IF EQUIPPED
The Rear Park Assist System is a driver aid that senses for
obstacles behind the vehicle and provides both visible
and audible warnings to indicate the range of the object.
System Usage Precautions
NOTE:
²Ensure that the rear bumper is free of dirt and debris
to keep the Rear Park Assist System operating prop-
erly.
²Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations could
affect the performance of the Rear Park Assist System.
²When you turn off the Rear Park Assist System, the
instrument cluster will display ªPARK ASSIST DIS-
ABLED.º Furthermore, once you turn off the Rear
Park Assist System, it remains off until you turn it on
again, even if you cycle the ignition key.

²When you move the shift lever to ªRº (Reverse)
position and the Rear Park Assist System is turned off,
a single chime will sound once per ignition cycle and
the instrument cluster will display ªPARK ASSIST
DISABLED.º
²The Rear Park Assist System, when on, will MUTE the
radio when it is sounding a tone.
²If a Rear Park Assist System malfunction occurs, a
single chime will sound once per ignition cycle. In
addition, the Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) will display ªSERVICE PARK ASSIST SYS-
TEMº and the LED in the Rear Park Assist switch will
illuminate. If this occurs, see your authorized dealer
for service.
CAUTION!
²The Rear Park Assist System is only a parking aid
and it is unable to recognize every obstacle, in-
cluding small obstacles. Parking curbs might be
temporarily detected or not detected at all. Ob-
stacles located above or below the sensors will not
be detected when they are in close proximity.
²The vehicle must be driven slowly when using the
Rear Park Assist System to be able to stop in time
when the obstacle is detected. It is recommended
that the driver looks over his/her shoulder when
using the Rear Park Assist System.
²Clean the Rear Park Assist Sensors with water, car
wash soap, and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or
hard cloths. Do not scratch or poke the sensors.
Otherwise, you could damage the sensors.
