terminal (+) of the auxiliary battery;
connect one end of the cable used for
negative (–) to the negative terminal (–)
of the auxiliary battery;
Connect the other end of the cable
used for negative (–) to an engine earth
(the visible metal part of the vehicle
engine with flat battery) away from the
battery and the fuel injection system;
start the vehicle engine with the
auxiliary battery, let it run for a few
minutes at idling. Start the engine of the
vehicle with flat battery.
Cable disconnection.
Once the engine has been started,
remove the cables proceeding as follows:
disconnect the end of the cable used
for negative (–) from the engine earth of
the vehicle with flat battery;
disconnect the other end of the cable
used for negative (–) to the negative
terminal (–) of the auxiliary battery;
disconnect the end of the cable used
for positive (+) to the positive terminal
(+) of the auxiliary battery;
disconnect one end of the cable used
for positive (+) from the positive terminal
(+) of the vehicle with flat battery;
If it is often necessary to perform an
emergency starting, have the vehiclebattery and the recharging system
checked by a Jeep Dealership.
IMPORTANT Any accessories (e.g.
mobile phones, etc.) connected to the
vehicle current sockets, draw current
even if they are not used. These
devices, if left connected too much
time with engine off, may cause the

rings, watches, bracelets), that might
cause an accidental electrical contact and
cause serious injury.
172)The batteries contain acid that can
burn skin or eyes. Batteries produce
hydrogen, which is easily flammable and
explosive. Thus keep away flames or
devices which may cause sparks.
IMPORTANT
80)Do not connect the cable to the
negative terminal (–) of the flat battery.
The following spark could lead to battery
explosion and cause serious harm. Only

FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM
173)
This intervenes in the case of an impact
causing:
the interruption of the fuel supply with
the engine consequently cutting out;
the automatic unlocking of the doors;turning on the lights inside the car;deactivation of climate control system
ventilation;
switching on the hazard warning lights
(to disable the lights, perform the “reset”
procedure as described below).

on the display. In the same way, a
dedicated message on the display warns
the driver if system operation is
compromised.
IMPORTANT Carefully check the
vehicle for fuel leaks, for instance in
the engine compartment, under the
vehicle or near the tank area. After a
collision, bring the ignition device to
STOP to prevent the battery from
running down.
Reset procedure

vehicle, carry out the following procedure(this procedure must be started and
completed within less than one minute):
bring the ignition device to MAR;turn on the direction indicators on the
right, then on the left, then again on the
right and again on the left;
now deactivate the direction indicators
on the left;
bring the ignition device to STOP;move the ignition device to MAR.
