2018 JEEP RENEGADE warning

IMPORTANT Do not operate the rear
window wiper with the blade lifted
from the rear window.
Windscreen washer
The windscreen jets, located on the
bonnet, are fixed.
If there is no jet of fluid, firstly check
that there is fluid in the reservoir (see
paragraph “Engine compartment” in this
chapter). Then check that the nozzle
holes are not clogged; use a needle to
unblock them if necessary.
IMPORTANT In versions with a sun
roof, make sure that the sun roof is
closed before operating the window
washer jets.
Rear window washer
The rear window washer jets are fixed.
The nozzle holder is located above the
rear window.
WARNING
189)The air intake system (air cleaner,
rubber hoses, etc.) can be a protection in
the case of blowbacks from the engine.
DO NOT REMOVE this system unless you
need to carry out repair or servicing
operations. Before starting the engine,
ensure that the system has not been
removed: failure to observe this precaution
may result in serious injury.
190)Exhaust emissions are very
dangerous, and may be lethal. They
contain carbon monoxide, a colourless,
odourless gas which can cause fainting
and poisoning if inhaled.
191)The exhaust system may reach high
temperatures and may cause a fire if the
vehicle is parked on flammable material.
Dry grass or leaves can also catch fire if
they come into contact with the exhaust
system. Do not park or use the vehicle in a
place in which the exhaust system might
come into contact with flammable
material.
IMPORTANT
89)Incorrect servicing of the vehicle or
failure to carry out operations or repairs
(when necessary) may lead to more
expensive repairs, damage to other
components or have a negative impact on
the vehicle performance. Have any
malfunction inspected immediately by a
Jeep Dealership.
90)The vehicle is equipped with fluids
which are optimised or protecting its
performance and life and extending
service intervals. Do not use chemicals for
washing these components since they may
damage the engine, the gearbox or the
climate control system. This damage is not
covered by the vehicle’s warranty. If any
component needs to be washed due to
malfunctioning, use only the specific
liquid for that procedure.
91)An excessive or insufficient amount of
oil inside the base is extremely damaging
to the engine. Make sure it is always at an
adequate level.

WHEELS AND TYRES
SUGGESTIONS ABOUT THE
ROTATION OF THE TYRES
192) 193)97) 98) 99) 100)
The front and rear tyres are subject to
different loads and stress due to steering,
manoeuvres and braking. For this reason
they are subject to uneven wear.
To resolve this problem, tyres should be
rotated at the appropriate time. This
operation is recommended for tyres with
a deep tread pattern, suitable both for
on-road and off-road driving.
Tyre rotation contributes to the
preservation of the grip and traction
performance on wet, muddy or snowy
roads, guaranteeing optimal driveability
of the vehicle.
In the case of irregular wear of the tyres,
the reason must be identified and
corrected before rotating them.
WARNING
192)Do not cross switch the tyres if they
are "unidirectional" type. In this case,
always take care not to fit the tyres with a
direction of rotation that is opposite to
that indicated: you would risk losing grip
and control of the vehicle.
193)Travelling with partially or completely
deflated tyres can cause safety problems
and damage the concerned tyre beyond
repair.
IMPORTANT
97)The road holding qualities of the car
also depend on the correct inflation
pressure of the tyres.
98)If tyre pressure is too low, the tyre may
overheat and be severely damaged as a
result.
99)Do not switch tyres from the
right-hand side of the vehicle to the
left-hand side, and vice versa.100)Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C. The
mechanical properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
SNOW CHAINS
101)
Front-wheel drive and four-wheel drive
versions: 7-mm snow chains can be used
on 215/65 R16 and 215/60 R17 tyres.
Chains cannot be fitted on
225/55 R18 tyres. e di incidenti.
IMPORTANTUse snow chains in
accordance 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,

WHEELS
RIMS AND TYRES
Alloy or pressed steel rims. Tubeless
radial carcass tyres.
All approved tyres are listed in the
Registration Document.
IMPORTANT If there are any
discrepancies between the “Owner
Handbook” and the “Registration
Document”, take the information from
the latter. For safe driving, the car
must be fitted with tyres of the same
make and type on all wheels.
IMPORTANT Do not use air chambers
with tubeless tyres.SPACE SAVER SPARE WHEEL

WARNING
194)If winter tyres with a lower speed
rating than that indicated in the
Registration Document are used, do not
exceed the maximum speed corresponding
to the speed rating of the tyres used.
195)DO NOT fit wheel hub caps when
using integral hub caps fixed (with
springs) to the steel rim and after sale
tyres provided with Rim Protector. Use of
unsuitable tyres and wheel caps may
cause sudden decrease of tyre pressure.

the system model, serial number and
secret code.
In case you lose the radio passport,
please go to Jeep Assistance Network
with an ID and the car papers.
IMPORTANT Keep the vehicle radio
passport in a safe place so that you
can give the information to the
relevant authorities if the system is
stolen.
IMPORTANT
In the event of a fault, the system must
only be checked and repaired by a Jeep
Dealership.
If the temperature is particularly low, the
display may take a while to reach
optimum brightness.
If the vehicle is stopped for a while and
the external temperature is very high, the
system may go into “thermal protection”
mode, suspending operation until the
radio temperature returns to acceptable
levels.Look at the screen only when it is
necessary and safe. If you need to look at
the screen for a long time, pull over to a
safe place so as not to be distracted
while driving.
Immediately stop using the system in the
event of a fault. Otherwise the system
might be damaged. Contact a Jeep
Dealership as soon as possible to have
the system repaired.
WARNING
196)Follow the safety rules here below:
otherwise serious injuries may occur to the
occupants or the system may be damaged.
197)If the volume is too loud this can be
dangerous. Adjust the volume so that you
can still hear background noises (e.g.
horns, ambulances, police vehicles, etc.).
IMPORTANT
105)Only clean the front panel and the
display with a soft, clean, dry, anti-static
cloth. Cleaning and polishing products
may damage the surface. Do not use
alcohol or similar products to clean the
panel or the display.106)Do not use the display as a base for
supports with suction pads or adhesives
