LPG TANK
17)
The car has a (pressurised) tank A
fig. 61 for storing LPG in a liquid state.
It is toroidal and is located in the spare
wheel compartment with suitable
protection.LPG tank certification
The LPG tank is certified in accordance
with the regulations in force.
In Italy, the tank has a life of 10 years
starting from the car registration date. If the
car has been registered in a country other
than Italy, the duration and the
testing/inspection procedures of the LPG
tank can vary depending on the national
provisions in force in that country. In all
case, when the time limit for your country
has expired, go to a Jeep Dealer to have the
tank replaced.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
sealants may damage the Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System sensor. If
aftermarket tyre sealant has been
used, it is recommended to go to a
Jeep Dealership to have the sensors
checked. After checking or adjusting
the tyre pressure, always refit the valve
cap to prevent humidity and dirt from
entering. They could damage the Tyre
Pressure Monitoring System sensor.
NOTE Some external factors (e.g.
external temperature, etc...) could affect
the information reported on the
instrument panel by the TPMS.
The tyre inflation pressure and the “low
pressure” reporting threshold could
change depending on the environmental
conditions.
TPMS check message
If a system failure is present, the
warning light flashes for about
75 seconds and then stays on solid. An
acoustic signal is also emitted.
TPMS deactivation
The TPMS can be deactivated by
replacing the wheels equipped with
TPMS with others that are not (e.g. when
replacing the wheel assemblies in
winter), if the country of purchase allows
it. Then drive the vehicle for at least
20 minutes at a speed higher than about25 km/h. The TPMS will emit an
acoustic warning, the
warning light
will flash for about 75 seconds, then will
stay on constantly and the instrument
panel will display the "Tyre pressure not
available" message with some dashes (–
–) instead of the pressure values.
The next time the engine is started, the
system will not emit any acoustic signal
and the display will not show the
message "Tyre pressure not available",
but the dashes (– –) will be still
displayed instead of the pressure value.
Operating example
Supposing that the prescribed cold
inflation pressure (i.e. vehicle stationary
for at least 3 hours) is 2.3 bar, if the
ambient temperature is 20°C and the
detected tyre pressure is 1.95 bar, a
temperature reduction of −7°C results in
a decrease in tyre pressure, bringing it to
approximately 1.65 bar. This pressure is
sufficiently low to activate the
warning
light.
Heating of tyres due to driving the
vehicle may increase tyre pressure up to
approximately 1.95 bar, but the
warning light will stay on. In this
situation, the warning light will switch off
only after the tyres are inflated to the
prescribed cold pressure value for the
car.
WARNING
68)The system is an aid for vehicle
driving, it DOES NOT warn the driver
about incoming vehicles outside of the
detection areas. The driver must always
maintain a sufficient level of attention to
the traffic and road conditions and for
controlling the trajectory of the vehicle.
69)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.
70)If the driver depresses the brake pedal
fully or carries out a fast steering during
system operation, the automatic braking
function may stop (e.g. to allow a possible
manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle).
71)The system intervenes on vehicles
travelling in the same lane. People,
animals and things (e.g. pushchairs) are
not taken into consideration.
113
72)If the car must be placed on a roller
bench for maintenance interventions or if
it is washed in an automatic roller washing
tunnel with an obstacle in the front part
(e.g. another car, a wall or another
obstacle), the system may detect its
presence and activate. In this case the
system must be deactivated through the
settings of theUconnect™system.
73)The presence of the TPMS does not
permit the driver to neglect regular checks
of the tyre pressure, including for the
spare wheel, and correct maintenance: the
system is not used to signal a possible
fault to a tyre.
74)Tyre pressure must be checked with
tyres rested and cold. Should it become
necessary for whatever reason to check
pressure with warm tyres, do not reduce
pressure even though it is higher than the
prescribed value. Repeat the check when
the tyres are cold.
75)Should one or more wheels be fitted
without sensors (e.g. if the spare wheel is
fitted), the system will no longer be
available for the replaced wheel and a
warning message will be shown on the
display, until the wheels with sensors are
fitted again.76)The TPMS cannot indicate sudden
tyre pressure drops (e.g. if a tyre bursts).
In this case, stop the vehicle, braking with
caution and avoiding abrupt steering.
77)Replacing standard tyres with winter
tyres and vice versa requires TPMS system
adjustment that must only be performed
by Jeep Dealerships.
78)Changes in outside temperature may
cause tyre pressures to vary. The system
may temporarily indicate insufficient
pressure. In this case, check the tyre
pressure when cold and, if necessary,
restore the inflation values.
79)When a tyre is removed, it is advisable
to replace the rubber valve seal as well:
contact a Jeep Dealership. The
fitting/removal of the tyres and/or rims
require special care. To avoid damaging or
fitting the sensors incorrectly, tyre and/or
rim fitting/removal operations should only
be carried out by specialised staff.
Contact a Jeep Dealership.
IMPORTANT
33)The system may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such
as: heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow.34)The section of the bumper before the
sensor must not be covered with
adhesives, auxiliary headlights or any other
object.
35)System intervention might be
unexpected or delayed when other vehicles
transport loads projecting from the side,
above or from the rear, with respect to the
normal size of the vehicle.
36)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.
37)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.
38)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.
39)When towing a trailer (with modules
installed after purchasing the vehicle), a
vehicle or during loading manoeuvres on a
vehicle transporter (or in vehicle for
transport), the system must be deactivated
via theUconnect™system.

DESCRIPTION
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a
driver assist device which combines the
Cruise Control functions with one for
controlling the distance from the vehicle
ahead.
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) uses a
radar sensor, located behind the front
bumper fig. 115 and a camera, located
in the middle of the windscreen fig. 116,
to detect the presence of a vehicle close
ahead.
There are two operating modes:
“Adaptive Cruise Control”mode to
maintain an adequate distance between
vehicles (the message “Adaptive CruiseControl” is shown on the instrument
panel display);
electronic “Cruise Control” modeto hold the vehicle at a constant
preset speed.
To change the operation mode, use the
button on the steering wheel (see that
described on the following pages).

uneven road surface or obstacles
before the wheels, affect vehicle's
movements, thus preventing it from
following the correct path.
IMPORTANT Manoeuvring is
deactivated if, after about 3 minutes,
parking has not been completed.
End of manoeuvre
The semi-automatic manoeuvre ends
when the display shows the message of
completed manoeuvre.
At the end of the manoeuvre, the driver
resumes control of the car and, if
necessary, has to complete parking
manually.
IMPORTANT INFORMATIONIf the sensors undergo impact which
alters their position, the system operation
could deteriorate considerably.
The system reaches top performance
after the vehicle has covered about
50 km (system "self-calibration").
If the sensors are dirty, covered by
snow, ice or mud or are repainted vs. the
original conditions, the system operation
could result strongly degraded. It is
extremely important that the sensors are
always clean in order for the system to
operate correctly. During cleaning make
sure not to scratch or damage them;
avoid using dry or rough cloths. Thesensors should be washed using clean
water with the addition of car shampoo if
necessary. In washing stations, clean the
sensors quickly, keeping the steam
jet/high pressure washing nozzles at least
10 cm away from the sensors.
Ultrasonic sound sources (e.g.
pneumatic brakes of trucks or air drills)
nearby could negatively influence the
sensor performance.
Sensors may detect a non-existent
obstacle (echo noise) due to mechanical
noises, for example while washing the
vehicle, in the case of rain, strong wind,
hail.
The sensors may not detect objects of
a particular shape or made from
particular materials (very thin poles,
trailer beams, panels, nets, bushes,
anti-parking posts, pavements, rubbish
bins, motor vehicles, etc.). Always take
great care to check that the vehicle and
its path are actually compatible with the
parking place identified by the system.
The use of (one or more) tyres or
wheels of a different size to those at the
time of vehicle purchase could affect the
operation of the system.
If a trailer (with correctly engaged
socket) is present, the system will be
automatically disabled.
In "Search in progress" mode, the
system could incorrectly identify a
parking place to carry out the manoeuvre(e.g. by a junction, driveways, roads
crossing the direction of travel, etc.).
In the case of parking manoeuvres on
roads on a gradient, the performance of
the system could be inferior and it may
deactivate.
If a parking manoeuvre is being
carried out between two parked vehicles
alongside the pavement, the system may
cause the vehicle to mount the
pavement.
Some manoeuvres at very tight bends
might be impossible to be carried out.
Take great care to ensure that
conditions do not change during the
parking manoeuvre (e.g. if there are
persons and/or animals in the parking
place, moving vehicles, etc.) and
intervene immediately if necessary.
During parking manoeuvres, pay
attention to cars approaching from the
opposite direction. Always comply with
the prescriptions of the Highway Code.
IMPORTANT Correct system operation
is not guaranteed if snow chains or the
space-saver wheel are fitted.
IMPORTANT The function only informs
the driver about the last appropriate
parking place (parallel or
perpendicular) detected by the parking
sensors.

STARTING AND DRIVING
No one should remain inside the car;if the car has alloy rims, whose
hubcaps cover the bolt, use the spanner
very carefully to remove the hubcap
before lifting the car up;
before lifting up the car, loosen the
bolts on the wheel with the flat tire
without removing them, using spanner A
fig. 173. While the tire is still resting on
the ground, you just need to turn the
bolts one turn counter-clockwise;
position the jack under the car, near
the tire to be changed;
insert the spanner D fig. 174 on the
hexagon A of the jack B and turn it
clockwise until the jack bracket is firmly
under the area to be lifted, at the spar
under the door, being careful to keep itin line with the bracket itself at the mark
indicated by the symbol
on the under
door coating;
lift up the car until the tire is off the
ground by a few centimetres;
remove the bolt and the tire (for
versions equipped with a tire cover, take
it off after having loosened the 4 bolts
that attach it and then unscrew the last
bolt and remove the tire);
remove the jack spanner and insert
the pin to centre the wheel (in case of
alloy rims) to facilitate mounting the
spare tire;
make sure the spare tire, where it
comes into contact with the centre, is
clean and has no debris that could later
cause the attachment bolts to loosen;
mount the spare tire;replace and screw the bolts, without
tightening them;
if you used it, remove the aligning
pin;
lower the car completely using the
jack.
take the spare wheel, jack and wheel
bolt removal key (see fig. 171 );
if the vehicle has aluminium rims,
where the hub cap covers the bolts, use
the key with great care to remove the hub
cap before raising the vehicle;
tighten the bolts, alternating from one
bolt to the one opposite, according to the
numerical sequence illustrated in
fig. 175. In the case of any doubts
regarding the bolt tightening torque,
contact a Jeep Dealership;
reposition the jack, the tools, the
chock and the flat tyre inside the luggage

IN AN EMERGENCY
compartment, ensuring that they are
locked correctly.
IMPORTANT
Should it be absolutely necessary to
operate on the road surface or near it,
pay the utmost attention to vehicles in
transit.
Pay particular attention when using
the key to remove the bolts: it may have
sharp edges.
Raising the vehicle any more than
necessary may lower its stability: the jack
may slip and injure those nearby. Do not
raise the vehicle any more than required
for the removal of the wheel.
Tyres with unidirectional tread can be
recognised by arrows on the side of the
tyre which indicate the direction ofrotation. This must of necessity be
complied with. Only in this way can the
tyres maintain their characteristics in
terms of grip, noise, resistance to wear
and drainage on wet surfaces.
If, after a puncture, it is necessary to
fit such a tyre the wrong way round, it
will be necessary to continue driving with
great care, since the tyre’s performance
is limited in these conditions. This
precaution must be borne in mind above
all when the road surface is wet.
In order to benefit completely from
the unidirectional tread, it is advisable to
restore all wheels to the correct direction
of rotation as soon as possible.
Make sure that the spare wheel is
fitted with the valve facing outwards. The
wheel may be damaged if fitted
incorrectly.
If the vehicle has a hub cap or wheel
cover, do not attempt to fit it on the
spare wheel.
To prevent injury to persons, the
complete tightening of the bolts must
only be carried out when all of the
vehicle’s wheels are on the ground, to
prevent the vehicle falling from the jack.
After having travelled for about
40 km, stop and check that the bolts are
tightened correctly.
WARNING
159)If left in the passenger compartment,
the punctured wheel and jack constitute a
serious risk to the safety of occupants in
the event of accidents or sharp braking.
Therefore, always place both the jack and
punctured wheel in the dedicated housing
in the luggage compartment.
160)It is extremely dangerous to attempt
to change a wheel on the side of the
vehicle next to the driving lane: make sure
that the vehicle is at a sufficient distance
from the road, to avoid being run over.
161)Alert other drivers that the car is
stationary in compliance with local
regulations: hazard warning lights,
warning triangle, etc. Any passengers on
board should leave the car, especially if it
is heavily laden. Passengers should stay
away from on-coming traffic while the
wheel is being changed. On slopes or on
unsurfaced roads, chock the wheels with
the chocks provided.
