SAFETY

FITTING A ISOFIX CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
90) 91) 92) 93)
The rear side seats of the vehicle are
equipped with ISOFIX attachments, for
fitting child restraint systems quickly,
simply and safely.
The ISOFIX system allows the ISOFIX
child restraint systems to be fitted,
without using the vehicle's seat belt,
but directly securing the child restraint
system to three anchorages present on
the vehicle. Traditional child restraint
systems can be fitted alongside ISOFIX
child restraint systems on different
seats in the same vehicle.
To install an ISOFIX child restraint
system, attach the it to the two metal
anchorages A fig. 76 located where the
rear seat cushion meets the backrest,
then fix the upper strap (available
together with the restraint system) to
the dedicated anchorage B located at
the bottom behind the backrest.
fig. 77 shows an example of a Universal
ISOFIX child restraint system for weight
group 1.
IMPORTANT The fig. 77 is indicative
and for assembly purposes only. Fit the
child restraint system according to
the instructions, which must be
included.NOTE When a Universal ISOFIX child
restraint system is used, only ECE R44
"ISOFIX Universal” (R44/03 or further
upgrades) type-approved child restraint
systems can be used (see fig. 78).
The other weight groups are covered
by specific ISOFIX child restraint
systems, which can be used only if
specifically tested for this vehicle (see
list of vehicles provided with the child
restraint system).

SUITABILITY OF
PASSENGER SEATS FOR
i-Size CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEM USE
The rear side seats of the vehicle are
type-approved to house the state-
of-the-art i-Size child restraint systems.
These child restraint systems, built
and type-approved according to the
i-Size (ECE R129) standard, ensure
better safety conditions to carry
children on board a vehicle:
❒the child must be transported
rearward facing until 15 months;
❒child restraint system protection is
increased in the event of a side
collision;
❒the use of the ISOFIX system is
promoted to avoid faulty installation of
the child restraint system;
❒efficiency in the choice of the child
restraint system, which isn't made
according to weight anymore but
according to the child's height,
is increased;
❒compatibility between the vehicle
seats and the child restraint systems is
better: the i-Size child restraint systems
can be considered as "Super ISOFIX",
this means that they can be perfectly
fitted in the type-approved i-Size seats,
but can also be fitted in the ISOFIX
(ECE R44) type-approved seats.NOTE The vehicle seats, i-Size
type-approved, are marked by the
symbol shown in fig. 79.

IMPORTANT Jeep recommends fitting the child restraint system according to the instructions, which must be included.
Main recommendations to carry
children safely
❒Install the child restraint systems on
the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of an
impact.
❒Keep children in rearward facing child
restraint systems for as long as
possible, until 3–4 years old if possible.
❒If the passenger's front airbag is
deactivated always check the
dedicated warning light on the panel
located on the dashboard to make sure
that it has actually been deactivated.❒Carefully follow the child restraint
manufacturer's instruction supplied with
the child restraint system. Keep the
instructions in the vehicle along with the
other documents and this handbook.
Do not use second-hand child restraint
systems without instructions.
❒Only one child is to be strapped into
each restraint system; never carry
two children using one child restraint
system.
❒Always check that the seat belts do
not rest on the child’s neck.
❒Always check that the seat belt is
well fastened by pulling on it.
❒While travelling, do not let the child sit
incorrectly or unfasten the belts.
❒Never allow a child to put the belt's
diagonal section under an arm or
behind their back.❒Never carry children on your lap,
even newborns. No-one could restrain
them in the event of an accident.
❒In the event of an accident, replace
the child restraint system with a new
one.
WARNING
83)SEVERE DANGER When a front
passenger airbag is fitted, do not install
rearward facing child restraint systems on
the front passenger seat. Deployment of
the airbag in an accident could cause fatal
injuries to the baby regardless of the
severity of the collision. It is advisable to
always carry children in a child restraint
system on the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of an
impact.
90
SAFETY

84)On the sun visor there is a label with
suitable symbols reminding the user that it
is compulsory to deactivate the airbag if
a rearward facing child restraint system is
fitted. Always comply with the instructions
on the passenger's side sun visor (see
the "Supplementary Restraint System
(SRS) - Airbag" paragraph).
85)Should it be necessary to carry a child
on the passenger side front seat in a rear
facing child restraint system, the passenger
side front airbag and side bag must be
deactivated through the display main menu
(see the instructions in the "Display"
paragraph, "Knowing the instrument panel"
chapter), verifying activation by checking
whether the
OFFLED has switched on
in the panel located on the dashboard.
Move the passenger's seat as far back as
possible to avoid contact between the child
restraint system and the dashboard.
86)Do not adjust the front or rear seat if a
child is seated on it or on the dedicated
child restraint system.
87)Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an
accident the child restraint system may
become loose and the child may be
injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint
system for newborns or children, strictly
comply with the instructions provided
by the Manufacturer.88)When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or with
the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from
the vehicle. Do not leave it unsecured
inside the passenger compartment. In this
way, in the case of sudden braking or an
accident, it will not cause injuries to the
occupants.
89)After installing a child restraint system,
do not move the seat: always remove
the child restraint system before making
any adjustment.
90)Always make sure that the chest
section of the seat belt does not pass
under the arms or behind the back of the
child. In the event of an accident the seat
belt will not be able to secure the child,
with the risk of injury, including fatal injury.
Therefore the child must always wear
the seat belt correctly.
91)Do not use the same lower anchorage
to install more than one child protection
system.
92)If a Universal ISOFIX child restraint
system is not fixed to all three anchorages,
it will not be able to protect the child
correctly. In a crash, the child could be
seriously or fatally injured.
93)Fit the child restraint system only when
the vehicle is stationary. The child restraint
system is correctly fixed to the brackets
when you hear the click. Follow the
instructions for assembly, disassembly and
positioning that the Manufacturer must
supply with the child restraint system.
SUPPLEMENTARY
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
(SRS) - AIRBAG
The vehicle is equipped with:
❒front driver airbag;
❒front passenger airbag;
❒driver and passenger front side bags
for pelvis, chest and shoulder
protection (Side bags);
❒front and rear side passenger side
bags for head protection (window bag).
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front driver/passenger airbags and
the driver's knee bag (where provided)
protect the front seat occupants in
the event of frontal impacts of
medium/high severity, by placing the
bag between the occupant and the
steering wheel or dashboard.
Therefore non-activation in other types
of collisions (side impacts, rear shunts,
roll-overs, etc.) does not indicate a
system malfunction.
Driver and passenger front airbags are
not a replacement of but
complementary to the seat belts, which
should always be worn, as specified
by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
