2014 JEEP RENEGADE climate control

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
In-depth knowledge of your new vehicle
starts here.
The booklet that you are reading simply
and directly explains how it is made
and how it works.
That’s why we advise you to read it
seated comfortably on board, so that
you can see immediately what is
described here for yourself.THE KEYS....................................... 7

Air flow to the front and rear footwell diffusers. This air distribution setting heats the passenger compartment most quickly,
giving a prompt sensation of warmth.
+Air flow distributed between footwell diffusers (hotter air) and central and side dashboard vents (cooler air). This
distribution setting is useful in spring and autumn on sunny days.
+Air flow distributed between footwell diffusers and windscreen and front side window defrosting/demisting diffusers.
This distribution setting allows the passenger compartment to be warmed up efficiently and prevents the windows
from misting up.
+Air flow distribution between windscreen demisting/defrosting diffusers and side and central dashboard vents. This
allows air to be sent to the windscreen in conditions of strong sunlight.
++Air flow distribution to all diffusers on the vehicle.
I - heated rear window on/off button; (where this function is provided, pressing the button also activates demisting/defrosting of
the door mirrors);
L - passenger side temperature adjustment knob;
M - SYNC function activation button (alignment of set temperatures) driver/passenger side;
N - AUTO function activation button (automatic operation).
In AUTO mode, the climate control
system automatically manages air
distribution (the LEDs on buttons H are
off). When set manually, the air
distribution is shown by the LEDs on
the selected buttons.
In combined function mode the relevant
function is enabled simultaneously
with those already set by pressing the
corresponding button. If a button
whose function is already active is
pressed, its operation is cancelled and
the corresponding LED switches off.
To restore automatic control of the
air distribution after a manual selection,
press the AUTO button.NOTES
The automatic climate control manages
the Stop/Start system (engine off and
vehicle at a standstill) in order to
guarantee sufficient comfort inside the
vehicle. In particularly severe climate
conditions it is recommended to limit
the use of the Stop/Start system to
prevent the compressor from
continuously switching on and off, with
consequent rapid misting of the
windows and accumulation of humidity
with unpleasant smells in the passenger
compartment.When the Stop/Start system is on
(engine off and vehicle at a standstill),
the automatic recirculation
management is turned off always taking
air in from outside, to reduce the
probability of the windows misting up
(as the compressor is off).

122)Before opening the bonnet, make
sure that the vehicle is switched off and
that the ignition device is in the STOP
position. Follow the indications on the plate
underneath the bonnet. We recommend
that you remove the key from the ignition if
other people remain in the vehicle. The
vehicle should always be left after the key
has been removed or turned to the STOP
position. During refuelling, make sure
that the engine is off (ignition device in the
STOP position).
WARNING
39)If climate comfort is to be favoured, the
Stop/Start system can be deactivated,
for a continuous operation of the climate
control system.
SPEED LIMITER
DESCRIPTION
This device allows the speed of the
vehicle to be limited to values which
can be set by the driver.
The maximum speed can be set both
with vehicle stationary and in motion.
The minimum speed that can be set is
30 km/h.
When the device is active, the vehicle
speed depends on the pressure at
the accelerator pedal, until the set
speed limit is reached.
ACTIVATING THE DEVICE
To activate the device press button A
fig. 91 on the steering wheel.The buttons on the steering wheel
operate as follows:
❒SET +: limit speed programming
(storage of a higher speed value);
❒SET –: limit speed programming
(storage of a lower speed value);
❒RES: device activation (the actuation
of the device is signalled by the
displaying of symbol
(green on
versions with reconfigurable
multifunction display).
❒CANC: deactivation of the device
(the deactivation of the device is
signalled by the displaying of symbol
(white);
Automatic deactivation of
device
The device deactivates automatically in
the event of fault in the system. In this
case, contact a Jeep Dealership.

FUEL CUT-OFF
SYSTEM
This intervenes in the case of an impact
causing:
❒the interruption of the fuel supply with
the engine consequently cutting out;
❒the automatic unlocking of the doors;
❒turning on of the lights inside the
vehicle;
❒deactivation of climate control system
ventilation;
❒switching on of the hazard warning
lights (to deactivate the lights press the
button on the dashboard).
On some versions, the intervention of
the system is indicated by a message
shown on the display. In the same way,
a dedicated message on the display
warns the driver if system operation is
compromised.
IMPORTANT Carefully check the vehicle
for fuel leaks, for instance in the engine
compartment, under the vehicle or
near the tank area. After a collision,
bring the ignition device to STOP to
prevent the battery from running down.
To restore correct operation of the
vehicle, carry out the following
procedure (this procedure must be
started and completed within less than
one minute):❒move the ignition device to MAR;
❒turn on the direction indicators on the
right, then on the left, then again on
the right and again on the left;
❒now deactivate the direction
indicators on the left;
❒bring the ignition device to STOP;
❒move the ignition device to MAR.
160)
WARNING
160)If, after an impact, you smell fuel or
notice leaks from the fuel system, do
not reactivate the system to avoid the risk
of fire.

ENGINE OIL
Check that the oil level is between the
MIN and MAX references on the
dipstick A. If the oil level is near or even
under the MIN line, add oil using the
filler B to reach the MAX line.
166)59)
Take out the engine oil dipstick A, clean
it with a lint-free cloth and reinsert it.
Extract it again and check that the level
is between the MIN and MAX marks
on the dipstick.
Engine oil consumption
60)4)
The maximum engine oil consumption
is usually 400 grams every 1,000 km.
During the initial period of use the
engine oil consumption conditions
should be considered as having
stabilised after the first 5000 - 6000
km.
ENGINE COOLANT
If the level is too low, unscrew the cap
of reservoir C and add the fluid
described in the "Technical
Specifications" section.
167)61)
WINDSCREEN/REAR
WINDOW WASHER FLUID
If the level is too low, lift reservoir cap D
and add the fluid described in the
chapter "Technical Specifications".
168) 169)
IMPORTANT The headlight washer
system will not operate when the fluid
level is low, even though the
windscreen/rear window washer
continues to operate. On some
versions there is a reference notch on
the dipstick: ONLY the windscreen/rear
window washer operates with the
level below this reference.
BRAKE FLUID
Check that the fluid is at the max. level.
If the fluid level in the reservoir is too
low, undo reservoir cap E and add the
fluid described in the chapter "Technical
Specifications".
170) 171)62)
AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
ACTIVATION SYSTEM OIL
The transmission control oil level should
only be checked at a Jeep Dealership.
5)
BATTERY
172) 173) 174) 175)6)
The battery does not require the
electrolyte to be topped up with distilled
water. A periodic check carried out at
a Jeep Dealership is, however,
necessary to check efficiency.
IMPORTANT After the battery is
disconnected, the steering must be
initialised. The
warning light on the
instrument panel switches on to
indicate this. To carry out this
procedure turn the steering wheel all
the way from one end to the other
or drive in a straight line for about a
hundred metres.
IMPORTANT If the charge level remains
under 50% for a long time, the battery
is damaged by sulphation, reducing
its capacity and efficiency at start-up.
CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
In winter, the climate control system
must be turned on at least once a
month for about 10 minutes. Have the
system inspected at a Jeep Dealership
before the summer.
