2014 JEEP RENEGADE refuelling

READ THIS CAREFULLY
REFUELLING
Petrol engines: only refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95 in compliance with the European specification
EN228. Do not use petrol containing methanol or ethanol E85. Using these mixtures may cause misfiring and driving issues, as well as
damage fundamental components of the supply system.
Diesel engines: refuel only with diesel fuel conforming to the European specification EN590. The use of other products or mixtures may
damage the engine beyond repair and consequently invalidate the warranty, due to the damage caused.
For further details on the use of the correct fuel see paragraph "Refuelling the vehicle" in the "Starting and driving" chapter.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Versions with manual gearbox (petrol engines): make sure that the parking brake is engaged; set the gear lever to neutral, fully depress
the clutch pedal without pressing the accelerator, then bring the ignition device to AVV or press the ignition device button and release the
key or the button as soon as the engine has started.
Versions with manual gearbox (diesel engines): make sure that the parking brake is engaged; set the gear lever to neutral, fully depress
the clutch pedal without pressing the accelerator, then bring the ignition device to MAR and wait for warning lights
andto switch
off. Bring the ignition device to AVV or press the ignition device button and finally release the key or the button as soon as the engine has
started.
Versions with automatic transmission: make sure that the parking brake is engaged and that the gear lever is in P (Park) or N (Neutral),
fully depress the brake pedal, then bring the ignition device to AVV or press the ignition device button.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high temperatures during operation. Do not park the vehicle on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other
flammable material: fire hazard.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is fitted with a system that carries out a continuous diagnosis of the emission-related components in order to help protect the
environment.
ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the vehicle, you decide to add electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually draining the battery), contact a Jeep Dealership.
They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the vehicle's electric system can support the required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance of the vehicle is essential for ensuring that it maintains its performance and its safety features, its environmental
friendliness and low running costs unchanged in time.

Symbol What it means
DUSK SENSOR FAILURE
The symbol switches on along with a message on the display in the event of dusk sensor failure. Contact a
Jeep Dealership as soon as possible.
WATER IN DIESEL FILTER (diesel versions)
The symbol switches on constantly when driving (along with a message in the display), to indicate the
presence of water in the diesel filter.
19)
WARNING
19)The presence of water in the fuel supply system circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular engine operation.
If thesymbol is displayed (along with a message in the display) contact a Jeep Dealership as soon as possible to bleed the system. If
the above indications come on immediately after refuelling, water has probably been poured into the tank: switch the engine off immediately

122)Before opening the bonnet, make
sure that the vehicle is switched off and
that the ignition device is in the STOP
position. Follow the indications on the plate
underneath the bonnet. We recommend
that you remove the key from the ignition if
other people remain in the vehicle. The
vehicle should always be left after the key
has been removed or turned to the STOP
position. During refuelling, make sure
that the engine is off (ignition device in the
STOP position).
WARNING
39)If climate comfort is to be favoured, the
Stop/Start system can be deactivated,
for a continuous operation of the climate
control system.
SPEED LIMITER
DESCRIPTION
This device allows the speed of the
vehicle to be limited to values which
can be set by the driver.
The maximum speed can be set both
with vehicle stationary and in motion.
The minimum speed that can be set is
30 km/h.
When the device is active, the vehicle
speed depends on the pressure at
the accelerator pedal, until the set
speed limit is reached.
ACTIVATING THE DEVICE
To activate the device press button A
fig. 91 on the steering wheel.The buttons on the steering wheel
operate as follows:
❒SET +: limit speed programming
(storage of a higher speed value);
❒SET –: limit speed programming
(storage of a lower speed value);
❒RES: device activation (the actuation
of the device is signalled by the
displaying of symbol
(green on
versions with reconfigurable
multifunction display).
❒CANC: deactivation of the device
(the deactivation of the device is
signalled by the displaying of symbol
(white);
Automatic deactivation of
device
The device deactivates automatically in
the event of fault in the system. In this
case, contact a Jeep Dealership.

To ensure correct operation of the
system, periodically remove all deposits
of dirt which may have accumulated
on the ball head bar and from the
mounting pipe. The lock must only be
treated with graphite.
Periodically lubricate the joints, the
sliding surfaces and the balls with
grease without resin or oil. Lubrication
is also a further corrosion protection.
if the vehicle is washed with high-
pressure jets, the ball head bar must be
removed and the dedicated plug fitted.
The ball head bar must never be
treated with high-pressure jets.
Two keys are supplied together with the
removable ball tow bar. Note down
the four-digit key number and keep it in
a safe place. This number is to be
used for ordering any duplicate keys
that may be required.
IMPORTANT To install a tow hook
contact a Jeep Dealership.
WARNING
128)The ABS with which the vehicle is
equipped will not control the braking
system of the trailer. Particular caution is
therefore required on slippery surfaces.
129)Never modify the braking system of
the vehicle to control the trailer brake. The
trailer braking system must be fully
independent of the vehicle’s hydraulic
system.
REFUELLING THE
VEHICLE
Always stop the engine before
refuelling.

IN AN EMERGENCY

146)The jack is a tool developed and
designed only for changing a wheel, if a
tyre gets punctured or damaged, on the
vehicle with which it is supplied or on other
vehicles of the same model. It must not
be used, for example, to jack other vehicle
models or objects. Never use the jack to
carry out maintenance or repairs under the
vehicle. Never position yourself under a
jacked vehicle. Should it be necessary to
work under the vehicle, contact a Jeep
Dealership. Incorrectly positioning the jack
may cause the vehicle to fall: use it only
in the positions indicated. Do not use the
jack for loads higher than the one shown
on its label.
147)The space-saver wheel cannot be
fitted with snow chains. If a front (drive) tyre
is punctured and chains are needed, use
a standard wheel from the rear axle and
install the space-saver wheel on the rear
axle. In this way, with two normal drive
wheels at the front axle, it is possible to use
snow chains.
148)Incorrect hub cap assembly, if
present, may cause it to come off when the
vehicle is moving. Never tamper with the
inflation valve. Never introduce tools of any
kind between the rim and the tyre. Check
tyre and space-saver wheel pressures
regularly, complying with the values given in
the "Technical specifications" chapter.TIREKIT
