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 some versions, the intervention of the
system is indicated by a message shown
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.
LPG versions

immediately closed, the LPG safety
solenoid valves are closed and injection
is interrupted to stop the engine.

SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the car under
the best conditions. For this reason, Jeep
has planned a series of checks and
services at fixed distance intervals and,
where provided, at fixed time intervals,
as described in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan.
Before each coupon however you always
need to pay attention to what is written
in the Scheduled Servicing Plan (e.g.
periodically check liquid levels, tire
pressure, etc.).
The Scheduled Servicing is carried out
by the Jeep Assistance Network at
pre-set times. If, during each operation,
in addition to the ones scheduled, the
need arises for further replacements or
repairs, these may be carried out with the
owner's explicit agreement only. If your
car is used frequently for towing, the
interval between one scheduled servicing
operation and the next should be
reduced.
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
interventions are set out by the
Manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the
warranty. It is advisable to inform aJeep Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the
next service.
PERIODIC CHECKS
