SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

92)Always require the use of only
compressor coolants and lubricants
approved and suitable for the specific air
conditioning system fitted on the vehicle.
Some non-approved coolants are
flammable and may explode, with the risk
of injuries. The use of non-approved
coolants or lubricants may adversely affect
system efficiency, leading to expensive
repairs.
93)The air conditioner system contains
coolant under high pressure: to avoid
injuries to people or damage to the
system, any coolant addition or repair that
requires to disconnect the cables must be
carried out by a Jeep Dealership.94)Vehicles equipped with catalytic
converter must be fuelled only with
unleaded petrol. Leaded petrol would
permanently damage the catalytic
converter and eliminate its ability to
reduce polluting emissions, seriously
compromising the engine performance,
which would be irreparably damaged. If
the engine does not work correctly,
especially if it starts irregularly or if there
is a reduction of its performance,
immediately go to a Jeep Dealership.
Prolonged and faulty operation of the
engine may cause overheating of the
converter and, as a consequence, possible
damage to the converter and the vehicle.
95)Using a gearbox fluid different from
that approved may compromise
gearshifting quality and/or cause vibration
of the gearbox itself.
96)It is recommended to have the vehicle
serviced by a Jeep Dealership. When
carrying out normal periodic operations
and small servicing interventions
personally on the vehicle, it is
recommended to use suitable equipment,
genuine spare parts and the necessary
fluids. Do not carry out any interventions if
you don't have the necessary experience.LIFTING THE VEHICLE
If the vehicle is to be lifted, go to a Jeep
Dealership which is equipped with the
arm lift or workshop lift.

with the risk of losing control of the
vehicle and causing accidents.
IMPORTANT
101)Keep the vehicle's speed down when
snow chains are fitted; never exceed
50 km/h. Avoid potholes, do not drive over
steps or pavements and do not drive long
distances over roads without snow, to
avoid damaging both your vehicle and the
road surface.
BODYWORK
PRESERVING THE BODYWORK
Paintwork102)7)
Touch up abrasions and scratches
immediately to prevent the formation of
rust.
Versions with matt paint
(where provided)
Some parts of the vehicle are painted

leather. Abrasive products and/or
polishes should not be used for cleaning
the car.
if high pressure jets or cleaners are
used to wash the vehicle, keep a
distance of at least 40 cm from the
bodywork to avoid damage or alteration.
Build up of water could cause damage to
the car in the long term;
wash the bodywork using a low
pressure jet of water;
wipe a sponge with a slightly soapy
solution over the bodywork, frequently
rinsing the sponge;
rinse well with water and dry with a jet
of air or a chamois leather.

ROAD SAFETY
Learn how to use the various system
functions before setting off.
Read the instructions for the system
carefully before setting off.
RECEPTION CONDITIONS
Reception conditions change constantly
while driving. Reception may be
interfered with by the presence of
mountains, buildings or bridges,
especially when you are far away from
the broadcaster.
IMPORTANT The volume may be
increased when receiving traffic
information and news.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Observe the following precautions to
ensure the system is fully operational:
the display lens should not come into
contact with pointed or rigid objects
which could damage its surface; use a
soft, dry anti-static cloth to clean and do
not press.
never use alcohol, petrols and
derivatives to clean the display lens.
Prevent any liquid from entering the
system: this could damage it beyond
repair.
MULTIMEDIA DEVICES
IMPORTANT Some multimedia player
devices may not be compatible with the
Uconnect™system.
Only use devices (e.g. USB flash drives)
from safe sources on the car. Devices
from unknown sources could contain
software infected by viruses which, if
installed on the car, could increase the
vulnerability of the car's electric/
electronic systems to hacking.
ANTITHEFT PROTECTION
The system is equipped with an
anti-theft protection system based on the
exchange of information with the
electronic control unit (Body Computer)
on the vehicle.
This guarantees maximum safety and
prevents the secret code from being
entered after the power supply has been
disconnected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the
system will start to operate, whereas if
the comparison codes are not the same
or if the electronic control unit (Body
Computer) is replaced, the system willask the user to enter the secret code
according to the procedure described in
the paragraph below.
Entering the secret code
(excluding the versions with a Uconnect
7” HD Nav LIVE system)
When the system is switched on, if the
code is requested, the display will show
“Please enter Anti-Theft Code” followed
by the screen showing a keypad to enter
the secret code.
The secret code has four numbers from
0 to 9: to insert the code numbers, rotate
the BROWSE/ENTER dial and press to
confirm.
After entering the fourth digit, the system
begins operating.
If an incorrect code is entered, the
system displays “Incorrect Code” to
notify the user of the need to enter the
correct code.
After the 3 available attempts to enter
the code, the system displays “Incorrect
Code. Radio locked. Wait for
30 minutes”. After the text has
disappeared it is possible to start the
code entering procedure again.
