WARNING
2)If the ignition device has been tampered
with (e.g. an attempted theft), have it
checked over by a Jeep Dealership before
driving again.
3)Always take the key with you when you
leave your vehicle to prevent someone
from accidentally operating the controls.
Remember to engage the electric parking
brake. Never leave children unattended
in the vehicle.
4)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out any
after-market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifications
(e.g. installation of anti-theft device) that
could adversely affect performance and
safety, invalidate the warranty and also
result in the vehicle not meeting type-
approval requirements.
5)Never extract the mechanical key while
the vehicle is moving. The steering wheel
will automatically lock as soon as it is
turned. This also applies to cases in which
the vehicle is towed.
6)ALWAYS engage the parking brake
before leaving the vehicle. On versions
equipped with automatic transmission,
move the gear lever to STOP (Park) and
press the ignition device to set it to STOP.
When leaving the vehicle, always lock all
the doors by pressing the dedicated button

7)On versions equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go system, do not leave the
electronic key inside or near the vehicle or
in a place accessible to children. Do not
leave the vehicle with the ignition device in
the MAR position. A child could operate
the electric windows, other controls or
even start the vehicle.SENTRY KEY®
TheSentry Key® system, prevents
unauthorised use of the vehicle, disa-
bling engine starting.
The system does not need to be
enabled/activated: operation is
automatic, regardless of the fact that
the vehicle's doors are locked or
unlocked.
When the ignition device is taken to
MAR, theSentry Key® system identi-
fies the code transmitted by the key. If
the code is recognised as valid, the
Sentry Key® system enables engine
starting.
When the ignition device is brought
back to STOP, theSentry Key® sys-
tem deactivates the control unit control-
ling the engine, thus preventing its
starting.
For the correct engine starting
procedures, see the instructions in the
"Starting the engine" paragraph,
"Starting and driving" chapter.
IRREGULAR OPERATION
If, during starting, the key code is not
correctly recognised, the
icon is
displayed on the instrument panel (see
the instructions in the "Warning lights
and messages" paragraph, "Knowing
the instrument panel" chapter). This
condition leads to the engine switching
off after 2 seconds. In this case, bring
the ignition device to STOP and then to
MAR; if it is still blocked, try with the
other keys provided. If it is still not
possible to start the engine, contact a
Jeep Dealership.
If the
icon is displayed while driving,
this means that the system is running
a self-diagnosis (e.g. due to a voltage
drop). If the displaying is still on,
contact a Jeep Dealership.

WARNING
8)NEVER leave children unattended inside
the vehicle, let alone leave the vehicle
with the doors unlocked in a place that
children can access easily. Children may
seriously, or even fatally, injure themselves.
Also ensure that children do not
inadvertently operate the electric parking
brake, the brake pedal or the automatic
transmission lever.
9)Always use this device when carrying
children. After engaging the device on both
rear doors, check for proper engagement
by trying to open a rear door with the
internal handle.
10)Once the Dead Lock device has been
actuated, doors cannot be opened from
inside; for this reason, make sure there are
no persons left inside the vehicle.
WARNING
2)Make sure to take the key with you once
a door or the tailgate is locked, to prevent
locking the same key inside the vehicle.
Once it has been left inside, the key can be
collected only using the second key
supplied with the vehicle.3)The operation of the recognition system
depends on various factors, such as, for
example, any electromagnetic wave
interference from external sources (e.g.
mobile phones), the charge of the battery
in the electronic key and the presence
of metal objects near the key or the vehicle.
In these cases it is still possible to unlock
the doors by using the metal insert in
the electronic key (see description on the
following pages).

OCCUPANT
PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
The most important safety equipment
of the vehicle comprise the following
protection systems:
❒seat belts;
❒SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;
❒head restraints;
❒child restraint systems;
❒front airbags and side bags.
Read the information given the
following pages with the utmost care. It
is of fundamental importance that the
protection systems are used in the
correct way to guarantee the maximum
possible safety level for the driver and
the passengers.
For the description of the head restraint
adjustment see paragraph "Head
restraints" in chapter "Knowing your
vehicle".
SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
The driver is responsible for respecting,
and ensuring that all the other
occupants of the vehicle also respect,
the local laws in force in relation to
the use of the seat belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off.
The seat belt should be worn keeping
the torso straight and rested against
the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the
tongue A fig. 63 and insert it into the
buckle B, until it clicks into place.
On removal, if the belt jams, let it rewind
for a short stretch, then pull it out
again without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press button
C and guide the seat belt with your
hand while it is rewinding, to prevent it
from twisting.
75) 76)The retractor may lock when the vehicle
is parked on a steep slope: this is
perfectly normal. Furthermore, the
retractor mechanism locks the belt if it
is pulled sharply or in the event of
sudden braking, collisions or
high-speed bends.
Wear the rear seat belts as shown in
fig. 64.
IMPORTANT When returning the rear
seat from the tilted position to the
normal operating position, take care to
refit the seat belt correctly, in order to
guarantee prompt availability every
time.

SAFETY

❒"Drive Away Release": (where
available) the electric parking brake will
automatically disengage with the driver
side seat belt fastened and the
detection of an action performed by the
driver to move the vehicle (forward
gear or reverse gear);
❒"Safe Hold": when the vehicle speed
is lower than 3 km/h, the gear lever is
not at P (Park) on versions with
automatic transmission and when the
intention of the driver to leave the
vehicle is detected, the electric parking
brake will automatically engage so
that the vehicle is in safe conditions.❒"Auto Park Brake": if the vehicle
speed is lower than 3 km/h, the electric
parking brake will automatically engage
with the gear lever moved to P (Park)
position (versions with automatic
transmission), or with the ignition device
at STOP (versions with manual
gearbox). The LED on the switch fig. 87
located on the central tunnel switches
on together with the warning light
on the instrument panel when the
parking brake is engaged and applied
to the wheels. Each automatic parking
brake engagement can be cancelled by
pressing the switch on the central
tunnel and moving at the same time the
gear lever for the automatic
transmission to position P (Park) or the
ignition device to STOP (versions with
manual gearbox).
SAFE HOLD
It is a safety function that automatically
engages the electric parking brake in
the event of a dangerous condition for
the vehicle.
If:
❒the vehicle speed is below 3 km/h;
❒the gear lever is not at P (Park)
(versions with automatic transmission);
❒the driver's seat belt is not fastened;
❒the driver side door is open;❒no attempted operation of the brake
pedal or, on versions with manual
gearbox, the clutch pedal or the
accelerator pedal is detected;
the parking brake engages
automatically to prevent the vehicle
movement.
The Safe Hold function can be
temporarily disabled by pressing the
switch located on the central tunnel
and the brake pedal at the same time,
with the vehicle stationary and the
driver side door open.
Once disabled, the function will activate
again when the vehicle speed reaches
20 km/h or the ignition device is moved
to STOP and then to MAR.
WARNING
112)In the case of parking manoeuvres on
roads on a gradient, the front wheels
must be steered towards the pavement
(when parking downhill), or in the opposite
direction if the vehicle is parked uphill. If
the vehicle is parked on a steep slope, it is
advisable to block the wheels with a
wedge or stone.
113)Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle. Always remove the key from
the ignition device when leaving the vehicle
and take it with you.
114)The electric parking brake must
always be engaged when leaving
the vehicle.
