KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

sealants may damage the Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System sensor. If
aftermarket tyre sealant has been
used, it is recommended to go to a
Jeep Dealership to have the sensors
checked. After checking or adjusting
the tyre pressure, always refit the valve
cap to prevent humidity and dirt from
entering. They could damage the Tyre
Pressure Monitoring System sensor.
NOTE Some external factors (e.g.
external temperature, etc...) could affect
the information reported on the
instrument panel by the TPMS.
The tyre inflation pressure and the “low
pressure” reporting threshold could
change depending on the environmental
conditions.
TPMS check message
If a system failure is present, the
warning light flashes for about
75 seconds and then stays on solid. An
acoustic signal is also emitted.
TPMS deactivation
The TPMS can be deactivated by
replacing the wheels equipped with
TPMS with others that are not (e.g. when
replacing the wheel assemblies in
winter), if the country of purchase allows
it. Then drive the vehicle for at least
20 minutes at a speed higher than about25 km/h. The TPMS will emit an
acoustic warning, the
warning light
will flash for about 75 seconds, then will
stay on constantly and the instrument
panel will display the "Tyre pressure not
available" message with some dashes (–
–) instead of the pressure values.
The next time the engine is started, the
system will not emit any acoustic signal
and the display will not show the
message "Tyre pressure not available",
but the dashes (– –) will be still
displayed instead of the pressure value.
Operating example
Supposing that the prescribed cold
inflation pressure (i.e. vehicle stationary
for at least 3 hours) is 2.3 bar, if the
ambient temperature is 20°C and the
detected tyre pressure is 1.95 bar, a
temperature reduction of −7°C results in
a decrease in tyre pressure, bringing it to
approximately 1.65 bar. This pressure is
sufficiently low to activate the
warning
light.
Heating of tyres due to driving the
vehicle may increase tyre pressure up to
approximately 1.95 bar, but the
warning light will stay on. In this
situation, the warning light will switch off
only after the tyres are inflated to the
prescribed cold pressure value for the
car.
WARNING
68)The system is an aid for vehicle
driving, it DOES NOT warn the driver
about incoming vehicles outside of the
detection areas. The driver must always
maintain a sufficient level of attention to
the traffic and road conditions and for
controlling the trajectory of the vehicle.
69)The system is an aid for the driver,
who must always pay full attention while
driving. The responsibility always rests
with the driver, who must take into
account the traffic conditions in order to
drive in complete safety. The driver must
always maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle in front.
70)If the driver depresses the brake pedal
fully or carries out a fast steering during
system operation, the automatic braking
function may stop (e.g. to allow a possible
manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle).
71)The system intervenes on vehicles
travelling in the same lane. People,
animals and things (e.g. pushchairs) are
not taken into consideration.

SEAT BELTS MAINTENANCE
For keeping the seat belts in efficient
conditions, observe the following:
always use the seat belt well
stretched and never twisted; make sure
that it is free to run without obstructions;
check seat belt operation as follows:
attach the seat belt and pull it hard;
replace the belt after an accident of a
certain severity even if it does not appear
to be damaged. Always replace the seat
belt if the pretensioners were deployed;
prevent the retractors from getting
wet: their correct operation is only
guaranteed if water does not get inside;
replace the seat belt when it shows
wear or cuts.
WARNING
84)The pretensioner may be used only
once. Contact a Jeep Dealership to have it
replaced after it has been deployed.
85)Removing or otherwise tampering with
pretensioner and seat belt components is
strictly prohibited. Any intervention on
these components must be performed by
qualified and authorised technicians.
Always contact a Jeep Dealership.
86)For maximum safety, keep the
backrest upright, lean back into it and
make sure the seat belt fits closely across
your chest 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.
87)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.
IMPORTANT
43)Operations which lead to impacts,
vibrations or localised heating (over 100
°C / 212 °F, 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.

Cars equipped with electronic key (Keyless
Enter-N-Go):at a car speed over 8 km/h
(5 mph) it is possible to switch the
engine off, also with automatic
transmission lever in a position other
than P (Parking). To switch off the engine
in this situation, hold down the ignition
device button for a while or press it
3 times in a row within a few seconds. In
this case the engine will stop and the
ignition device will switch to MAR.
WARNING
116)It is dangerous to run the engine in
enclosed areas. The engine takes in
oxygen and releases carbon dioxide,
carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.
117)The brake servo is not active until
the engine is started, so you would need
to apply much more force than usual to
the brake pedal.
118)Do not start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. These
manoeuvres may damage the catalytic
converter.
IMPORTANT
44)We recommend that during the initial
period, or during the first 1600 km
(1000 miles), you do not drive to full car
performance (e.g. excessive acceleration,
long journeys at top speed, sharp braking,
etc.).
45)When the engine is switched off never
leave the ignition device in the MAR
position to prevent useless current
absorption from draining the battery.
46)A quick burst on the accelerator before
turning off the engine serves absolutely no
practical purpose; it wastes fuel and is
damaging for the engine.
47)Warning light
will flash after
starting or during prolonged cranking to
indicate a fault with the glow plug heating
system. If the engine starts, the vehicle
can be regularly used, but a Jeep
Dealership must be contacted as soon as
possible.
PARKING THE VEHICLE
Always remove the ignition key when
leaving the car.
When parking and leaving the car,
proceed as follows:
engage a gear (1st gear if facing uphill
or reverse if facing downhill) and leave
the wheels turned;
stop the engine and engage the
handbrake.
Block the wheels with a wedge or a stone
if the car is parked on a steep slope.
On versions equipped with automatic
transmission or dual clutch automatic
transmission, wait for the letter P to be
displayed before releasing the brake
pedal.
IMPORTANT NEVER leave the car with
the gearbox in neutral (or, on versions
equipped with automatic transmission
or dual clutch automatic transmission,
before putting the shift lever in the P
position).
