2018 JEEP RENEGADE belt

ROLL OVER WARNING
The risk of rolling over for off-road vehicles is considerably higher than for any other type of vehicle. This vehicle has a higher
ground clearance and has a higher centre of gravity compared to many other vehicles for transporting passengers, so that it allows
better performance to be reached in a wide range of off-road applications. In any case, a dangerous driving style can increase the
risk of losing control of the vehicle.
The vehicle is more subject to the risk of rolling over because of the higher centre of gravity should the driver lose its control.
Therefore, avoid tight curves or other unsafe driving conditions that may lead to losing the vehicle control. Failure to comply with
these precautions may cause accidents, vehicle rolling over and severe or fatal injuries. Drive carefully.
The main cause for severe or fatal injuries is failing to wear driver and passenger seat belts. In the event of rolling over, a passenger
not wearing the seat belt is much more likely to be fatally injured than a passenger wearing it correctly. Always fasten the seat belts.
“CYBERSECURITY” DEVICESThe car is equipped with security devices developed according to the technological standards currently applied in the automotive
industry to protect the onboard electronic systems from hacking attempts. The purpose of these security devices is to minimise the
risk of cyber-attacks or the installation of viruses or malware which could compromise the performance of the car and/or allow
stealing of personal data of the buyers and/or users and/or unauthorised dissemination of said information.
The car's purchaser must not remove, modify or tamper with these anti-hacking security devices. The Manufacturer will therefore
not be liable for negative consequences and/or damage to the vehicle and/or to the buyer and/or to third parties deriving from the
removal, modification or alteration of the security devices performed by the car's purchaser and/or user.
VEHICLE CHANGES/ALTERATIONS
IMPORTANT Any change or alteration of the vehicle might seriously affect its safety and road holding, thus causing accidents, in
which the occupants could even be fatally injured.

provided), then lift up the backrests and
push them back until a click is heard for
both locking mechanisms, at the side.
Make sure that the "red marks" on levers
A fig. 21 are not visible any more (the

locked properly).
WARNING
11)All adjustments must be made with
the car stationary.
12)Once you have released the
adjustment lever, always check that the

locked into place, it may unexpectedly
slide and cause the driver to lose control
of the car.
13)Make sure the backrests are properly
secured at both sides (not visible "red
notches) to prevent them from moving
forward, in the event of sharp braking,
with possible impact with of the

Warning light What it means
AIRBAG FAILURE
If the warning light switches on constantly, this indicates a fault in the airbag system. The display
shows the dedicated message.
33)
SEAT BELTS NOT FASTENED
The warning light switches on constantly if the vehicle is stationary and the driver side or passenger
side seat belt, with the passenger seated, is not fastened. The warning light flashes and a buzzer will
sound if the vehicle is in motion and the driver side or passenger side seat belt, with the passenger
seated, is not correctly fastened.
In this case, fasten the seat belt.
WARNING
33)If thewarning light does not switch on when the ignition device is moved to MAR or if it stays on when driving (together with the
message on the display), there might be a fault in the restraint systems; in this case, the airbags or pretensioners may not deploy in the
event of an accident or, in a lower number of cases, they could deploy erroneously. Before continuing, contact a Jeep Dealership to have
the system immediately checked.
34)The fault of the
warning light is signalled by the switching on of theicon on the instrument panel. In this case, the warning light
may not indicate any faults with the restraint systems. Before continuing, contact a Jeep Dealership to have the system immediately
checked.

putting the ignition device in the MAR
position.
IMPORTANT The system status can be
changed with vehicle at a standstill
only.
Activation/deactivation
If the Forward Collision Warning Plus
system has been correctly activated with
theUconnect™system, this will be active
each time the engine is started.
To deactivate the system, hold down the
button on the central tunnel. Following
a deactivation, the system will not warn
the driver about the possible collision
with the preceding vehicle, regardless of
the setting selected with the
Uconnect™system. To reactivate the
system press the
button again.
The system is only active if:
it is activated via the
Uconnect™system;
it has not been deactivated with a long
press of thebutton;the ignition device is at MAR;the vehicle speed is between 7 and
200 km/h;
the front seat belts are fastened.System limited operation warning
If the dedicated message is displayed, a
condition limiting the system operation
may have occurred. The possible reasons
of this limitation are something blocking
the camera view or a fault. If an
obstruction is signalled, clean the area of
the windscreen indicated in fig. 75 and
check that the message has disappeared.
In this case the system might be not
completely available.
When the conditions limiting the system
functions end, this will go back to normal
and complete operation. Should the fault
persist, contact a Jeep Dealership.
Driving in special conditions
In certain driving conditions, such as, for
example:
driving close to a bend fig. 76;vehicles with small dimensions and/or
not aligned in the driving lane fig. 77;
lane change by other vehicles fig. 78;vehicles travelling at right angles to
the vehicle fig. 79;system intervention might be unexpected
or delayed. The driver must be very
careful to maintain control of the vehicle
and drive in complete safety.

40)Do not wash with high-pressure jets in
the bumper lower area: in particular do not
operate on the system's electrical
connector.
41)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.
42)The tyre quick repair kit (TireKit),
provided with the vehicle, is compatible
with the TPMS sensors. Using sealants
different from that in the original kit may
compromise its operation. If sealants not
equivalent with the original ones are used,
it is recommended to have the TPMS
sensor operation checked by a qualified
repair centre.OCCUPANT PROTECTION

equipment of the vehicle comprise the
following protection systems:
seat belts;SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;head restraints;child restraint systems;Front airbags and side bags.

SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
The driver is responsible for respecting,
and ensuring that all the other occupants
of the vehicle also respect, the local laws
in force in relation to the use of the seat
belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off.
The seat belt should be worn keeping the
torso straight and rested against the
backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the tongue
A fig. 80 and insert it into the buckle B,
until it clicks into place.On removal, if the belt jams, let it rewind
for a short stretch, then pull it out again
without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press button
C and guide the seat belt with your hand
while it is rewinding, to prevent it from
twisting.
81)
The retractor may lock when the vehicle
is parked on a steep slope: this is
perfectly normal. Furthermore, the
retractor mechanism locks the belt if it is
pulled sharply or in the event of sudden
braking, collisions or high-speed bends.
Wear the rear seat belts as shown in
fig. 81.
IMPORTANT When returning the rear
seat from the tilted position to the
normal operating position, take care to
refit the seat belt correctly, in order to
guarantee prompt availability every
time.
ADJUSTING THE SEAT BELT
HEIGHT
82)
Five different adjustments in height are
possible.
To carry out height adjustment, from the
top to the bottom, press button A
(located on both sides of handle B), and
slide the handle downwards.
The height adjuster moves upwards even
without pressing the two buttons A.
