2014 JEEP RENEGADE height

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).

turned off.
16)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operations involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft

ADJUSTING THE SEAT
BELT HEIGHT
77) 78)Five different adjustments in height are
possible.
To carry out height adjustment, from
the top to the bottom, press button A
(located on both sides of handle B), and
slide the handle downwards.
The height adjuster moves upwards
even without pressing the two buttons
A.
Always adjust the height of the seat
belts to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the event of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.
WARNING
75)Do not press button C fig. 63while
travelling.
76)Remember that, in the event of a
violent collision, back-seat passengers not
wearing seat belts represent a serious
danger to the front-seat passengers as well
as to themselves.
77)The height of the seat belts must be
adjusted with the vehicle stationary.
78)After the adjustment, always check that
the cursor to which the ring is fastened is
locked in one of the preset positions. To do
this, with button A fig. 65released, exert
a further pressure to allow the locking
device to click if the grip has not
been released in one of the possible
positions.
SBR (Seat Belt
Reminder) SYSTEM
The SBR system warns the passengers
of the front and rear (where provided)
seats if their seat belt is not fastened.
The system signals unfastened seat
belts with visual warnings (warning
lights on in the instrument panel and
icons on the display) and an acoustic
signal (see the following paragraphs).
NOTE To deactivate the acoustic
warning permanently go to a Jeep
Dealership. The acoustic warning can
be reactivated at any time through
the display Menu (see the "Display"
paragraph in the “Knowing the
instrument panel” chapter).
Operation of front seat belt
warning light
When the ignition device is turned to
MAR, warning light
(see fig. 66) lights
up for a few seconds, regardless of
the status of the front belts.
With vehicle at a standstill, if the driver
side seat belt or the passenger side
seat belt (with occupant seated) is
unfastened, the warning light stays on
constantly.65J0A0151C

WARNING
79)The pretensioner may be used only
once. Contact a Jeep Dealership to have it
replaced after it has been deployed.
80)Removing or otherwise tampering with
seat belt and pretensioner components
is strictly prohibited. Any operations on
these components must be performed by
qualified and authorised technicians.
Always contact a Jeep Dealership.
81)For maximum safety, keep the back of
your seat upright, lean back into it and
make sure the seat belt fits closely across
your torso and pelvis. Always fasten the
seat belts for both the front and rear seats!
Travelling without wearing seat belts will
increase the risk of serious injury and even
death in the event of an accident.
82)If the belt has been subjected to high
levels of stress, for example after an
accident, it should be changed completely
together with the attachments, attachment
fixing screws and the pretensioner. In
fact, even if the belt has no visible defects,
it may have lost its resilience.
WARNING
33)Operations which lead to impacts,
vibrations or localised heating (over 100°C
for a maximum of six hours) in the area
around the pretensioner may damage or
deploy it. Contact a Jeep Dealership
should intervention be necessary on these
components.
CHILD PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
CARRYING CHILDREN
SAFELY
83) 84) 85) 86)
For optimal protection in the event of an
impact, all occupants must be seated
and wearing adequate restraint
systems, including newborn and other
children! This prescription is
compulsory in all EC countries
according to EC Directive 2003/20/EC.
Children below the height of 1.50
metres and until 12 years, must be
protected with suitable restraint
systems and be seated on the rear
seats.
Statistics on accidents indicate that the
rear seats give a better performance
when protecting children safety.
Compared with an adult, a child's head
is larger and heavier in proportion to
their body and the child's muscular and
bone structures are not fully developed.
Therefore, correct restraint systems
other than adult seat belts are
necessary to reduce as much as
possible the risk of injuries in the event
of an accident, braking or sudden
manoeuvre.Children must be seated safely and
comfortably. Depending on the
characteristics of the child restraint
systems used, you are advised to keep
children in rearward facing child
restraint systems for as long as
possible (at least until 3–4 years old),
since this is the most protected position
in the event of an impact.
The choice of the most suitable child
restraint device depends on the weight
and size of the child. There are various
types of child restraint systems, which
can be secured to the vehicle by means
of the seat belts or with the ISOFIX/i-
Size anchorages.
It is recommended to always choose
the restraint system most suitable
for the child; for this reason always refer
to the Owner Handbook provided with
the child restraint system, to be sure
that it is of the right type for the children
it is intended for.
In Europe the characteristics of child
restraint systems are ruled by the
regulation ECE-R44, dividing them into
five weight groups:
Group Weight range
Group0 upto10kg
Group 0+ up to 13 kg
Group 1 9–18 kg
81
Group 2 15–25 kg
Group 3 22-36 kg

Group 3
For children between 22 and 36 kg,
there are dedicated restraint systems
that allow the seat belt to be worn
correctly.
The fig. 75 shows the correct child
positioning on the rear seat.
Children over 1.50 m in height can wear
seat belts like adults.

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.
