2014 JEEP RENEGADE snow chains

With gear lever in neutral, speed
adjustment using the accelerator pedal
is not available.
The driver can cancel the intervention of
the HDC system at any time by
completely depressing the accelerator
pedal or the brake pedal.
System deactivation
The HDC system is deactivated, but
remains available, if one of the following
conditions is met:
❒the speed of the vehicle exceeds
25 km/h but remains below 40 km/h;
❒the vehicle is on a descent with
insufficient gradient, below 8%, or a
level surface, or is going uphill;
❒the gear lever is in P (Park) position.
Disabling the system
The system is deactivated and disabled
if one of the following conditions is
met:
❒button press fig. 53;
❒activation of mode other than 4WD
LOW;
❒electric parking brake (EPB)
engagement;
❒driver side door open;
❒speed of 40 km/h exceeded
(immediate exit from HDC function).

DISABLING ACTIVE
SAFETY SYSTEMS
Depending on the versions, there are 3
configurations for the active safety
systems on the vehicle:
❒systems enabled;
❒systems partially disabled;
❒systems disabled.
Systems enabled
All active safety systems are enabled.
This is the normal operating mode
when driving a four-wheel-drive vehicle.
This mode should be used in most
driving conditions. The system will be in
"Systems enabled" mode every time
the engine is started.
IMPORTANT You are advised to select
"Systems partially disabled" or
"Systems disabled" modes only for
specific driving requirements.
Systems partially disabled
By pressing thebutton on the central
tunnel fig. 54 for fewer than 5 seconds
when driving, the TSC system can
be disabled and the intervention of the
TC system can be limited to braking
action on the individual drive wheels.
The other systems remain enabled.Activation of this mode is indicated by
the
warning light on the instrument
panel switching on (on some versions,
together with a message on the
display).
To restore "All systems enabled"
operating mode, press the button on
the central tunnel again.
"Systems completely enabled" mode
will automatically reactivate every time
the engine is started.
IMPORTANT When travelling on snowy
roads with snow chains, it may be
helpful to activate "Systems partially
disabled" mode: in these conditions,
slipping of the drive wheels when
moving off makes it possible to obtain
better traction.

SAFETY

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
(where provided)
DESCRIPTION
The TireKit is located in the luggage
compartment inside a dedicated
container.
The container is also equipped with a
screwdriver, the tow hook and the
refuelling adaptor.
To access the TireKit, open the tailgate,
remove the reconfigurable load platform
and lift the carpet.
149) 151)55)3)The TireKit also contains:
❒bottle A fig. 138 containing sealant
and fitted with: filling tube B and
adhesive label C with the wording
“Max. 80 km/h” to be placed in a
clearly visible position (e.g. on
the dashboard) after repairing the tyre;❒a compressor D complete with
pressure gauge and connectors;
❒instruction leaflet for quick, correct
use of the TireKit;
❒a pair of gloves located in the side
compartment of the compressor;
❒adaptors for inflating different
elements.
IMPORTANT The sealing fluid is
effective with external temperatures of
between –20°C and +50°C. The sealing
fluid has an expiry date.
INFLATION PROCEDURE

COLD TYRE INFLATION PRESSURE (bar)
When the tyres are warm, the inflation pressure should be +0.3 bar compared with the prescribed value. However, recheck that
the value is correct with the tyre cold. With snow tyres, add +0.2 bar to the pressure value prescribed for standard tyres.

(*) After using the spare wheel in an emergency, where necessary, align the pressure of the wheel to the recommended value as soon as possible, with reference to
the following table.
SNOW CHAINS78)
Front- and all-wheel drive versions: 7-mm snow chains can be used on 215/65 R16 tyres. Chains cannot be fitted on
215/60 R17 and 225/55 R18 tyres.
Important
The use of snow chains should be in compliance with local regulations of each country. In certain countries, tyres marked with
code M+S (Mud and Snow) are considered as winter equipment; therefore their use is equivalent to that of the snow chains.
The snow chains may be applied only to the front wheel tyres.
Check the tension of the snow chains after the first few metres have been driven.
Using snow chains with tyres with non-original dimensions may damage the vehicle.
Using different size or type (M+S, snow, etc.) tyres between front and rear axle may adversely affect vehicle driveability, with the
risk of losing control of the vehicle and resulting accidents.
WARNING
78)Keep your speed down when snow chains are fitted; do not exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes, steps and pavements and avoid driving for
long distances on roads not covered with snow to prevent damaging the vehicle and the road surface.
