the device keeps working if the radar
sensor is obstructed.
Before returning to the previously set
speed, bring the speed close to that
value, then press the RES button and
release it.
WARNING
134)Pay the utmost attention while
driving at all times and be always ready to
press the brakes if needed.
135)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.
136)The device is not activated in
presence of pedestrians, oncoming
vehicles in the opposite direction of travel
or moving in the crosswise direction and
stationary objects (e.g. a vehicle standing
in a queue or a broken down vehicle).
137)The device cannot take account of
road, traffic and weather conditions, and
conditions of poor visibility (e.g. fog).138)The device does not always fully
recognise complex driving conditions that
could cause it to determine the safe
distance to be held incorrectly or not at
all.
139)The device cannot apply the
maximum braking force: the car will not
be stopped completely.IMPORTANT
54)The system may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such
as: heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow.
55)The section of the bumper before the
sensor must not be covered with
adhesives, auxiliary headlights or any other
object.
56)Operation can be adversely affected by
any structural change made to the vehicle,
such as a modification to the front
geometry, tyre change, or a heavier load
than the standard load of the vehicle.
57)Incorrect repairs made on the front
part of the vehicle (e.g. bumper, chassis)
may alter the position of the radar sensor,
and adversely affect its operation. Go to a
Jeep Dealership for any operation of this
type.58)Do not tamper with nor carry out any
intervention on the radar sensor or on the
camera on the windscreen. In the event of
a sensor failure, contact a Jeep
Dealership.
59)Do not wash with high-pressure jets in
the bumper lower area: in particular do not
operate on the system's electrical
connector.
60)Be careful in the case of repairs and
new paintings in the area around the
sensor (panel covering the sensor on the
left side of the bumper). In the event of a
frontal impact the sensor may
automatically deactivate and display a
warning to indicate that the sensor needs
to be repaired. Even without a malfunction
warning, deactivate the system operation if
you think that the position of the radar
sensor has changed (e.g. due to low-speed
frontal impact as during parking
manoeuvres). In these cases, go to a Jeep
Dealership to have the radar sensor
realigned or replaced.

PARKSENSE SYSTEM
(where provided)
VERSIONS WITH 4 SENSORS
140)61) 62)
The parking sensors, located in the rear
bumper fig. 119, are used to detect the
presence of any obstacles near the rear
part of the car.
The sensors warn the driver with acoustic
signals and, where provided, with visual
signals on the instrument panel screen.On/off
To disengage the system press button
fig. 120.
Changing the system's status, from
engagement to disengagement and vice
versa, is always accompanied by a visual
message on the instrument panel screen.
System on: LED off.
System off: LED lighted continuously.
The LED lights up even if the
ParkSense®system does not. If the
button is pressed with a system failure,
the LED flashes for about 5 seconds,
then it stays on constantly.
IMPORTANT After theParkSense®hasbeen disengaged, it will stay in this
condition until the following
engagement, even if the ignition
device passes from MAR to STOP and
then again to MAR.
IMPORTANT Using wheels with
different sizes from those mounted at
the time the car was purchased could
affect the system, not allowing it to
function properly.
System activation/deactivation
If it was engaged correctly, the system is
enabled by putting the gear into reverse
while it deactivates by moving the gear to
a different position to reverse.
Operation with a trailer
The operation of the sensors is
automatically deactivated when the
trailer electric cable plug is inserted in
the tow hook socket of the car. The
sensors are automatically reactivated
when the trailer's cable plug is removed.

VERSIONS WITH 12 SENSORS
The parking sensors, located in the front
(fig. 121 ) and rear (fig. 122 ) bumpers,
are used to detect the presence of any
obstacles near the front and rear part of
the vehicle.
The sensors warn the driver about the
presence of obstacles with an
intermittent acoustic signal and, where
provided, also with visual indications on
the instrument panel display.
On/off
To disengage the system press button
fig. 120.
When the system passes from engaged to
disengaged and vice versa, it is always
accompanied by a dedicated message on
the instrument panel display.
System on: LED off.
System off: LED lighted continuously.
The LED lights up even if the
ParkSense®system does not. If the
button is pressed with a system failure,the LED flashes for about 5 seconds,
then it stays on constantly.
IMPORTANT After theParkSense®has
been disengaged, it will stay in this
condition until the following
engagement, even if the ignition
device passes from MAR to STOP and
then again to MAR.
System activation/deactivation
When the reverse gear is engaged and
the system is on, the front and rear
sensors are activated. If a different gear
is engaged, the rear sensors are
deactivated, while the front sensors
remain active until a speed of 15 km/h is
exceeded.
Operation with a trailer
The operation of the rear sensors is
automatically deactivated when the
trailer's electric cable plug is inserted in
the tow hook socket of the car, while the
front sensors stay active and can provide
acoustic and visual warnings. The rear
sensors are automatically reactivated
when the trailer's cable plug is removed.

ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION
To insert the system, press the button
fig. 125: the instructions needed to carry
out the manoeuvre are shown on the
instrument panel screen.
System on: LED light on steady/System
off: LED off.
The LED lights up also in the case of a
failure to theActive ParkSense®system.
If the button is pressed with the system
faulty, the LED flashes for about
5 seconds, then it stays off.
IMPORTANT The use of wheels of a
different size to those at the time of
vehicle purchase could affect the
system and prevent correct operation.
OPERATION OF THE SYSTEM
When searching for a parking place, the
system uses the side sensors (fig. 126),
which are automatically activated with
engine on and speed below 30 km/h.During the manoeuvre the driver is also
assisted by information from the parking
sensors (4 front and 4 rear) which
provide further distance information
when approaching obstacles in front of
and behind the vehicle.
If theActive ParkSense®function is
activated after having previously
deactivated theParkSense®function, the
sensors are activated once more and stay
in this condition only during the parking
movement.

CHANGING A BULB
150) 151) 152) 153)76)
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONSBefore replacing a bulb check the
contacts for oxidation;
replace blown bulbs with others of the
same type and power;
after replacing a headlight bulb,
always check its alignment;
when a light is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is intact
before replacing the bulb. For the
location of fuses, refer to the paragraph
“If a fuse blows” in this chapter.
IMPORTANT When the weather is cold
or damp or after heavy rain or washing,
the surface of headlights or rear lights
may steam up and/or form drops of
condensation on the inside. This is a
natural phenomenon due to the
difference in temperature and
humidity between the inside and the
outside of the glass which does not
indicate a fault and does not
compromise the normal operation of
lighting devices. The mist disappears
quickly when the lights are turned on,
starting from the centre of the diffuser,
extending progressively towards the
edges.
