SELEC-TERRAIN
DRIVING MODE
SELECTION
Turn knob A fig. 95 to select the wished
mode.
IMPORTANT Changing mode is not
possible when the vehicle speed is over
120 km/h.❒AUTO (Automatic): the 4WD mode
with continuous and automatic
operation can be used while driving on
road and off-road. This mode reduces
fuel consumption, because the
propeller shaft can be disconnected,
whenever required.
❒SNOW: this mode can achieve more
stability on slippery or snow-covered
grounds. To be used for driving on-road
and off-road in the case of grounds
with poor grip, such as roads covered
by snow.
❒SAND: off-road driving mode to be
used on grounds with poor grip, such
as muddy surfaces. The transmission is
set to offer a maximum traction.
❒MUD: off-road driving mode for
surfaces with poor grip, such as
mud-covered grounds or wet grass.
❒ROCK(where provided, for Trailhawk
versions only): this mode is only
available if the 4WD LOW mode is
activated. The device sets the vehicle to
maximise traction and give the highest
steering capacity on off-road surfaces
featuring a high grip. This mode offers
the best performance when driving
"off-road". This mode must be used to
pass over obstacles at slow speed,
such as large rocks, deep cracks, etc.When the engine is started, the AUTO
mode is automatically selected (LED on
close to the AUTO wording).
Turning the knob A fig. 95 the LED
close to the AUTO wording comes on
solid. The other LEDs switch on
sequentially, depending on the
positions set on the knob, so that the
driver can understand which is the new
required mode.
Once the required mode is set (LED
close to the wording switched on), just
keep the knob in that position so that
theSelec-Terrain™system actuates
to engage the wished mode.

163)The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on the road.
You are allowed to tow the vehicle for
short distances using an appropriate
device in accordance with the highway
code (a rigid bar), to move the vehicle on
the road in readiness for towing or
transport via a breakdown vehicle. Tow
hooks MUST NOT be used to tow vehicles
off the road or where there are obstacles
and/or for towing operations using ropes or
other non-rigid devices. Respecting the
above conditions, towing must take place
with two vehicles (one towing, the other
towed) aligned as much as possible along
the same centre line.BROKEN-DOWN
VEHICLE TOWING
It is recommended to tow the vehicle
with all four wheels lifted from the
ground on the platform of a rescue
vehicle.
VERSIONS WITH FOUR-WHEEL
DRIVE (4WD) AND AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
IMPORTANT Avoid lifting the front (or
rear) wheels only. Lifting the front (or
rear) wheels only while towing might
damage the transmission or the transfer
unit.
IMPORTANT If a vehicle is towed
without complying with the above
requirements, the transmission and/or
the transfer unit might be seriously
damaged. Damage due to an incorrect
towing will not be covered by the
warranty.

MINIMUM GROUND CLEARANCE/TYPICAL ANGLES
"Minimum ground clearance" (reference A fig. 158)
The clearance value is measured next to the lower edge of the differential. This value also defines those for the "Approach
angle" the "Departure angle" and the "Breakover angle".
Dimensions are expressed in mm and refer to the vehicle equipped with its standard-supplied tyres.
Front wheel drive (FWD) versions: 171 mm
Four wheel drive (4WD) versions: 201 mm
Trailhawk versions with four wheel drive (4WD LOW): 225 mm

"Approach angle" (reference B fig. 158)
The approach angle is determined by the horizontal line of the road surface and by the tangent line passing between the front
wheel and the most projecting low point of the vehicle.
The wider the angle, the lower the chance to hit an obstacle with the body or chassis, climbing a steep slope or overcoming an
obstacle.
Front wheel drive (FWD) versions: 17.9°
Four wheel drive (4WD) versions: 21°
Trailhawk versions with four wheel drive (4WD LOW): 30.5°
"Departure angle" (reference C fig. 158)
The departure angle is determined by the same lines of the "Approach angle", and refers to the rear part of the vehicle.
Front wheel drive (FWD) versions: 29.7°
Four wheel drive (4WD) versions: 32.1°
Trailhawk versions with four wheel drive (4WD LOW): 34.3°
"Breakover angle" (reference D fig. 158)
The value of the "Breakover angle" is linked to the ground clearance of the vehicle and indicates the attitude of the vehicle to
overcome a wedge, more or less steep, preventing the vehicle from resting on the ground with the body or chassis after
touching the wedge with its lowest and most projecting parts (usually the underbody), this would highly reduce wheel grip.
The wheels, without a suitable grip to the ground, will not have sufficient hold to move the vehicle, and will surge.
The higher the ground clearance, the wider the breakover angle. Always bear in mind that the higher the ground clearance, the
lower the stability, due to a higher centre of gravity which reduces the side tipping angle.
Front wheel drive (FWD) versions: 21.2°
Four wheel drive (4WD) versions: 24°
Trailhawk versions with four wheel drive (4WD LOW): 25.7°

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption values given in the table below are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests laid down by
specific European Directives.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic conditions, weather conditions, driving style, general condition of the vehicle, trim
level/equipment/accessories, use of the climate control system, vehicle load, presence of roof racks and other situations that
adversely affect the aerodynamics or wind resistance lead to different fuel consumption values than those measured. The
fuel consumption will get more regular only after having driven the first 3000 km.

PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE VEHICLE AT THE END OF
ITS LIFE
Jeep has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its production
processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly "eco-compatible". To assure customers of the best possible
service in terms of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Directive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the
end of their life, Jeep is offering their customers the opportunity of handing over their vehicle (*) at the end of its life without
incurring any additional costs.
The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over the last keeper or owner should not incur any expenses
as a result of it having a zero or negative market value. In particular, in almost all European Union countries, until 1st January
2007, vehicles registered after 1st July 2002 will be collected free of charge, whilst from 2007 collection will be free of charge
irrespective of the year of registration as long as the vehicle contains its basic components (in particular, the engine and
bodywork) and has no additional waste.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, go to one of our Dealerships or Jeep-authorised collection
and scrapping centres. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality service for the collection, treatment and
recycling of vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment. You can find further information on these
collection and scrapping centres either from a Jeep Dealership or by calling the freephone number 00 800 0 426 5337 or on
the Jeep website.
