2014 JEEP RENEGADE gas type

70)Should one or more wheels be fitted
without sensors (e.g. if the spare wheel
is fitted), the system will no longer be
available for the replaced wheel and a
warning message will be shown on the
display, until the wheels with sensors are
fitted again.
71)The TPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre
pressure drops (e.g. if a tyre bursts). In
this case, stop the vehicle, braking with
care and avoiding sharp steering actions.
72)Replacing the normal tyres with winter
tyres and vice versa requires an inspection
of the TPMS, which should be carried
out only by a Jeep Dealership.
73)Changes in outside temperature may
cause tyre pressures to vary. The system
may temporarily indicate insufficient
pressure. In this case check the tyre
inflation pressure with the tyres cold and, if
necessary top up the inflation pressure.
74)When a tyre is removed, it is advisable
to replace the rubber gasket for the valve:
go to a Jeep Dealership. The fitting/
removal of the tyres and/or rims require
special care. To avoid damaging or fitting
the sensors incorrectly, tyre and/or rim
fitting/removal operations should only be
carried out by specialised staff. Go to a
Jeep Dealership.
WARNING
23)The system may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such
as: heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow.
24)The section of the bumper before
the sensor must not be covered with
adhesives, auxiliary headlights or any other
object.
25)System intervention might be
unexpected or delayed when other vehicles
transport loads projecting from the side,
above or from the rear, with respect to the
normal size of the vehicle.
26)Operation can be adversely affected by
any structural change made to the vehicle,
such as a modification to the front
geometry, tyre change, or a heavier load
than the standard load of the vehicle.
27)Incorrect repairs made on the front part
of the vehicle (e.g. bumper, chassis) may
alter the position of the radar sensor,
and adversely affect its operation. Go to a
Jeep Dealership for any operation of this
type.
28)Do not tamper nor carry out any
intervention on the radar sensor or on the
camera on the windscreen. In the event
of a sensor failure, contact a Jeep
Dealership.
29)When towing a trailer (with modules
installed after purchasing the vehicle),
a vehicle or during loading manoeuvres on
a vehicle transporter (or in vehicle for
transport), the system must be deactivated
via theUconnect™system.30)Do not wash with high-pressure jets in
the bumper lower area: in particular do
not operate on the system's electrical
connector.
31)Be careful in the case of repairs and
new paintings in the area around the
sensor (panel covering the sensor on the
left side of the bumper). In the event of
a frontal impact the sensor may
automatically deactivate and display a
warning to indicate that the sensor needs
to be repaired. Even without a malfunction
warning, deactivate the system operation
if you think that the position of the radar
sensor has changed (e.g. due to
low-speed frontal impact as during parking
manoeuvres). In these cases, go to a
Jeep Dealership to have the radar sensor
realigned or replaced.
32)The tyre quick repair kit (TireKit),
provided with the vehicle, is compatible
with the TPMS sensors. Using sealants
different from that in the original kit may
compromise its operation. If sealants not
equivalent with the original one are used, it
is recommended to have the TPMS sensor
operation checked by a qualified repair
centre.

STOP/START
SYSTEM
The Stop/Start system automatically
stops the engine each time the vehicle
is stationary and starts it again when
the driver wants to move off.
In this way, the vehicle efficiency is
increased, by reducing consumption,
dangerous gas emissions and noise
pollution.

OPERATING MODES
Engine stopping mode
Versions with manual gearbox
With the vehicle stopped, the engine
stops with gearbox in neutral and
clutch pedal released.
Versions with automatic transmission
With vehicle at a standstill and brake
pedal pressed, the engine switches off
if the gear lever is in a position other
than R.
In the event of stops uphill, the engine
switching off is disabled to activate
the "Hill Start Assist" function (works
only with running engine).
The
warning light on the instrument
panel switches on to signal that the
engine was stopped.
Engine restarting mode
Versions with manual gearbox
To restart the engine, press the clutch
pedal.
If the vehicle does not start pressing the
clutch, place the gear lever in neutral
and repeat the procedure. If the
problem persists, contact a Jeep
Dealership.
Versions with automatic transmission
To restart the engine, release the brake
pedal.
With brake pressed, if the gear lever is
in automatic mode - D (Drive) - the
engine can be restarted moving the
lever to R (Reverse) or N (Neutral)
or "AutoStick".
With brake pressed, if the gear lever is
in "AutoStick" mode, the engine can be
restarted moving the lever to "+" or
"–", or R (Reverse) or N (Neutral).
When the engine has been stopped
automatically, keeping the brake pedal
pressed, the brake can be released
keeping the engine off by quickly
shifting the gear lever to P (Park).
To restart the engine, just move the
lever out of position P.

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.
