2014 JEEP RENEGADE change time

If the rear seat belt is unfastened, an
acoustic warning (3 "beeps") will be
activated along with the relevant icon
lighting up in the display.
Furthermore the icons will light up again
for 90 seconds each time one of the
rear doors is closed.
The icon will turn green after the
corresponding seat has been fastened.
The rear seat icons will go out,
regardless of the state of the belt (red
icon or green icon), approximately
30 seconds after the last signal.
IMPORTANT
As far as the rear seats are concerned,
the SBR system will only indicate
whether the seat belts are unfastened
(red icon) or fastened (green icon),
not the presence of any passengers.
The warning lights/icons are all off if all
seat belts (front and rear) are fastened
when the ignition device is at MAR.
For the rear seats, the icons will
activate after a few seconds after the
ignition device has been turned to
MAR, regardless of the status of the
seat belts (even if the seat belts are all
fastened).
All the warning lights/icons will come on
when at least one belt changes from
fastened to unfastened status or vice
versa.
PRETENSIONERS
79) 80) 81) 82)33)
The vehicle is equipped with front seat
belt pretensioners, which draw back
the seat belts by several centimetres in
the event of a strong frontal impact.
This guarantees the perfect adherence
of the seat belts to the occupant's
bodies before the retention action
begins.
It is evident that the pretensioners have
been activated when the belt withdraws
toward the retractor.
This vehicle is also equipped with a
second pretensioner (fitted in the kick
plate area). Its activation is signalled by
the shortening of the metal cable.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the
pretensioner which is not harmful and
does not indicate any fire hazard.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication: any
changes to its original conditions will
invalidate its efficiency.
If, due to unusual natural events (floods,
sea storms, etc.), the device has been
affected by water and/or mud, contact
a Jeep Dealership to have it replaced.IMPORTANT To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action of
the pretensioner, wear the seat belt
tight to the torso and pelvis.
LOAD LIMITERS
To increase safety in the event of an
accident, the front seat belt retractors
contain a load limiter which controls the
force acting on the chest and
shoulders during the belt restraining
action in the event of a head-on
collision.
GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USING THE SEAT BELTS
Respect and ensure that all the other
occupants of the vehicle comply with
the local laws in force regarding the use
of seat belts. Always fasten the seat
belts before setting off.
Seat belts must also be worn by
pregnant women: the risk of injury in
the event of an accident is reduced for
them and the unborn child if they are
wearing a seat belt.

MANUAL GEARBOX
115)38)
To engage the gears, press the clutch
pedal fully and put the gear lever into
the required position (the diagram
for gear engagement is shown on the
knob ).
To engage reverse R from neutral, lift
the ring A under the knob and at the
same time move the lever to the left
and then forwards.
To engage 6th gear, operate the lever
by pressing it towards the right in order
to avoid engaging 4th gear by mistake.
The same applies to the shift from
6th to 5th gear.IMPORTANT Reverse can only be
engaged when the vehicle is completely
stationary. With the engine running,
wait for at least 2 seconds with the
clutch pedal fully pressed before
engaging reverse to prevent damage to
the gears and grating.
IMPORTANT The clutch pedal should
be used only for gear changes. Do
not drive with your foot resting on the
clutch pedal, however lightly. In some
circumstances, the electronic clutch
control could cut in by interpreting the
incorrect driving style as a fault.
WARNING
115)Depress the clutch pedal fully to
change gear correctly. It is therefore
essential that there is nothing under the
pedals: make sure the mats are lying
flat and do not get in the way of the
pedals.
WARNING
38)Do not drive with your hand resting on
the gear lever as the force exerted, even
if slight, could lead over time to premature
wear of the gearbox internal components.
AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
The vehicle can be equipped with a
9-speed automatic transmission.
The transmission can operate in two
different modes: "Automatic mode" or
"Sequential mode".
GEAR LEVER
The lever has the following positions:
❒P= Park
❒R= Reverse
❒N= Neutral
❒D= Drive, (automatic forward speed)
❒AutoStick: + shifting to higher gear
in sequential driving mode; – shifting
to lower gear in sequential driving
mode.
The gear engaged is shown on the
display.

❒before raising the vehicle, loosen –
without removing – the bolts on the
wheel with the flat tyre using key A fig.
135. With the wheel still resting on
the ground, a single anticlockwise
rotation of the bolts will be enough;
❒position the jack under the vehicle,
near the wheel to be changed;
❒fit key D fig. 136 on hexagon A of
jack B and turn it clockwise until the
jack’s bracket is inserted firmly in the
under-door side member lifting area,
taking care to keep the staff aligned
with the notch indicated by symbol
on the under-door trim;
❒lift the vehicle until the wheel is a few
centimetres off the ground;
❒remove the bolts and the wheel (for
versions with hub cap, remove it after
loosening the 4 bolts that fix it and,
finally, undo the last bolt and remove
the wheel);❒remove the key from the jack and
insert the locating pin in the hub cap (in
the case of alloy wheels)to facilitate
fitting of the spare wheel;
❒make sure the contact surfaces
between spare wheel and hub
are clean so that the fixing bolts will not
become loose subsequently;
❒fit the spare wheel;
❒fit and do up the bolts, without
tightening them;
❒if used, remove the alignment pin;
❒operate the jack and completely
lower the vehicle;
❒take the spare wheel, jack and wheel
bolt removal key (see fig. 133);
❒if the vehicle has aluminium rims,
where the hub cap covers the bolts,
use the key with great care to remove
the hub cap before raising the vehicle;❒tighten the bolts, alternating from one
bolt to the one opposite, according to
the numerical sequence illustrated in
fig. 137. In the case of any doubts
regarding the bolt tightening torque,
contact a Jeep Dealership;
❒reposition the jack, the tools, the
chock and the flat tyre inside the
luggage compartment, ensuring that
they are locked correctly.
IMPORTANT
❒Should it be absolutely necessary to
operate on the road surface or near
it, pay the utmost attention to vehicles
in transit.
❒Pay particular attention when using
the key to remove the bolts: it may have
sharp edges.

❒Raising the vehicle any more than
necessary may lower its stability: the
jack may slip and injure those nearby.
Do not raise the vehicle any more
than required for the removal of the
wheel.
❒Tyres with unidirectional tread can be
recognised by arrows on the side of
the tyre which indicate the direction of
rotation. This must of necessity be
complied with. Only in this way can the
tyres maintain their characteristics in
terms of grip, noise, resistance to wear
and drainage on wet surfaces.
❒If, after a puncture, it is necessary to
fit such a tyre the wrong way round,
it will be necessary to continue driving
with great care, since the tyre’s
performance is limited in these
conditions. This precaution must be
borne in mind above all when the road
surface is wet.
❒In order to benefit completely from
the unidirectional tread, it is advisable to
restore all wheels to the correct
direction of rotation as soon as
possible.
❒Make sure that the spare wheel is
fitted with the valve facing outwards.
The wheel may be damaged if fitted
incorrectly.❒If the vehicle has a hub cap or wheel
cover, do not attempt to fit it on the
spare wheel.
❒To prevent injury to persons, the
complete tightening of the bolts must
only be carried out when all of the
vehicle’s wheels are on the ground, to
prevent the vehicle falling from the jack.
❒After having travelled for about
40 km, stop and check that the bolts
are tightened correctly.
WARNING
141)If left in the passenger compartment,
the punctured wheel and jack constitute
a serious risk to the safety of occupants in
the event of accidents or sharp braking.
Therefore, always place both the jack and
punctured wheel in the dedicated housing
in the luggage compartment.
142)It is extremely dangerous to attempt
to change a wheel on the side of the
vehicle next to the driving lane: make sure
that the vehicle is at a sufficient distance
from the road, to avoid being run over.
143)Indicate the presence of the stationary
vehicle in accordance with current
regulations: hazard warning lights, warning
triangle, etc. Those on board should get
out of the vehicle, particularly if it is heavily
laden, and wait for the wheel to be
changed away from the threat posed by
the traffic. On slopes or on unsurfaced
roads, chock the wheels with the chocks
provided.144)The vehicle's driving characteristics
will be modified with the space-saver wheel
fitted. Avoid violent acceleration and
braking, abrupt steering and fast cornering.
The overall duration of the space-saver
wheel is of about 3000 km, after which the
relevant tyre must be replaced with another
one of the same type. Never install a
standard tyre on a rim that is designed for
use with a space-saver wheel. Have the
wheel repaired and refitted as soon as
possible. Using two or more space-saver
wheels at the same time is forbidden.
Do not grease the threads of the bolts
before fitting them: they might slip out
when driving!
145)The space-saver wheel (where
provided) is specific to your vehicle: do not
use it on other models, or use the
space-saver wheel of other models on your
vehicle. The space-saver wheel must only
be used in the event of emergency. It
must only be used for the distance
necessary to reach a service point and the
vehicle speed must not exceed 80 km/h.
The space-saver wheel has an orange label
that summarises the main cautions for
use and limitations. Never remove or cover
the label. Never apply a hub cap on a
space-saver wheel.

IN AN EMERGENCY

SCHEDULED
SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the vehicle
under the best conditions. For this
reason, Jeep has planned a series of
checks and services at fixed distance
intervals and, where provided, at fixed
time intervals, as described in the
Scheduled Servicing Plan.
Before each service, it is always
necessary to carefully follow the
instructions in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan (e.g. periodically check level of
fluids, tyre pressure, etc.).
Scheduled Servicing is offered by all
Jeep Dealerships according to a set
time schedule. If, during each
operation, in addition to the ones
scheduled, the need arises for further
replacements or repairs, these may
be carried out with your explicit
agreement only. If your vehicle is used
frequently for towing, the interval
between one service operation and the
next should be reduced.IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
Coupons are required by the
Manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the warranty.
It is advisable to inform a Jeep
Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the next
service.
PERIODIC CHECKS
Every1,000km or before long
journeys, check and if necessary, top
up: engine coolant level; brake fluid
level; screen washer fluid level; tyre
inflation pressure and condition; lighting
system operation (headlights, direction
indicators, hazard warning lights, etc.);
screen washer/wiper system operation
and positioning/wear of windscreen/
rear window wiper blades.
Every3,000km, check and top up if
required: engine oil level.
HEAVY-DUTY USE OF THE
VEHICLE
If the vehicle is used under one of the
following conditions: towing a trailer
or caravan; dusty roads; short (less
than 7-8 km), repeated journeys with
sub-zero outside temperatures; engine
often idling or driving long distances
at low speed or long periods of
inactivity, the following checks must be
carried out more often than indicated
in the Scheduled Servicing Plan:❒check front disc brake pad condition
and wear;
❒check cleanliness of bonnet and
luggage compartment locks,
cleanliness and lubrication of linkage;
❒visually inspect condition of: engine,
gearbox, transmission, pipes and hoses
(exhaust/fuel system/brakes) and
rubber elements (boots/sleeves/
bushes, etc.);
❒check battery charge and battery
fluid level (electrolyte);
❒visually inspect condition of the
accessory drive belts;
❒check and, if necessary, change
engine oil and replace oil filter;
❒check and, if necessary, replace
pollen filter;
❒check and, if necessary, replace air
cleaner.
On versions with automatic
transmission, change transmission oil
and replace oil filter every 60,000 km
(40,000) or every 4 years.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING
164)Never smoke when performing
operations in the engine compartment.
Flammable gases and fumes may be
present and risk igniting.
165)Be very careful when working in the
engine compartment when the engine
is hot: you may get burned.
166)If the engine oil is being topped up,
wait for the engine to cool down before
loosening the filler plug, particularly for
vehicles with aluminium plug (where
provided). CAUTION: risk of burns!
167)The cooling system is pressurised. If
necessary, only replace the cap with
another original one or the operation of the
system may be adversely affected. Do
not remove the reservoir cap when the
engine is hot: risk of burns.
168)Do not travel with the windscreen
washer reservoir empty: the windscreen
washer is essential for improving visibility.
Repeated operation of the system without
fluid could damage or cause rapid
deterioration of some system components.
169)Certain commercial additives for
windscreen washer fluids are inflammable.
The engine compartment contains hot
components which may set it on fire.
170)Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
corrosive. In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the affected
parts with water and mild soap. Then rinse
thoroughly. Call a doctor immediately if
swallowed.171)The
symbol on the container
indicates a synthetic brake fluid, which is
different from a mineral fluid. Using a
mineral fluid will damage the special rubber
seals of the braking system beyond repair.
172)Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin and
eyes. Keep open flames away from the
battery and do not use objects that might
create sparks: risk of explosion and fire.
173)Using the battery with insufficient
fluid irreparably damages the battery and
may cause an explosion.
174)If the vehicle must remain unused for
a long time at a very low temperature,
remove the battery and take it to a warm
place, to avoid freezing.
175)When performing any operation on
the battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with special goggles.
WARNING
58)Be careful not to confuse the various
types of fluids while topping up: they
are not compatible with each other!
Topping up with an unsuitable fluid could
severely damage your vehicle.
59)The oil level should never exceed the
MAX mark.
60)Do not add oil with specifications other
than those of the oil already in the engine.61)PARAFLU
UPanti-freeze fluid is used in
the engine cooling system; use the same
fluid type as that already in the cooling
system when topping up. PARAFLU
UP
may not be mixed with other types of
anti-freeze fluids. In the event of topping up
with an unsuitable product, under no
circumstances start the engine and contact
a Jeep Dealership.
62)Avoid allowing brake fluid, which is
extremely corrosive, to come into contact
with painted areas. Should it happen, wash
immediately with water.
63)Incorrect assembly of electrical and
electronic accessories may cause severe
damage to your vehicle. Go to a Jeep
Dealership if you want to install accessories
(e.g. anti-theft, radio phone, etc.): they will
suggest the most suitable devices and
advise you whether a higher capacity
battery needs to be installed.
WARNING
4)Used engine oil and oil filters contain
substances which are harmful to the
environment. You are advised to contact a
Jeep Dealership to have the oil and filters
changed.
5)Used transmission fluid contains
substances that are harmful to the
environment. It is advisable to contact a
Jeep Dealership for oil changes.
6)Batteries contain substances which are
very dangerous for the environment. For
battery replacement, contact a Jeep
Dealership.
