MAR: driving position. All electrical
devices are available. This state can be
entered by pressing the ignition device
button once, without pressing the brake
pedal (versions with automatic
transmission) or the clutch pedal
(versions with manual gearbox);
AVV: engine starting.
Starting the engine (with electronic key
battery flat): in this case, rest the rounded

device and press the button using the
electronic key.
Stopping the engine (with electronic key
battery flat): to switch off the engine in
this situation, hold down the ignition
device button for a while or press it
3 times in a row within a few seconds.
NOTE The ignition device does NOT
activate if the electronic key is inside the
boot and this is open.
NOTE With the ignition device at MAR, if
30 minutes pass with the vehicle
stationary (versions with manual gearbox)
or with the gear lever at P (Park)
(versions with automatic transmission)
and the engine off, the ignition device
will automatically move to the STOP
position.
NOTE If the device does switch off the
car, refer to the “Display” paragraph in
the “Knowing the instrument panel”chapter, where available, and contact the
Jeep Dealership as soon as possible.
For more information on the engine
start-up, see the description in the
"Starting the engine" paragraph, in the
"Starting and driving" chapter.STEERING LOCK

WARNING
2)If the ignition device has been
tampered with (e.g. an attempted theft),
have it checked over by a Jeep Dealership
before driving again.
3)Always take the key with you when you
leave your vehicle to prevent someone
from accidentally operating the controls.
Remember to engage the electric parking
brake. Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle.
4)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installation of

warranty, cause serious safety problems
and also result in the car not meeting
type-approval requirements.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

5)Never extract the mechanical key while
the vehicle is moving. The steering wheel
will automatically lock as soon as it is
turned. This holds true for cars being
towed as well.
6)Before leaving the vehicle, ALWAYS
engage the handbrake. On versions
equipped with automatic transmission,
move the gear lever to STOP (Park) and
press the ignition device to set it to STOP.
When leaving the vehicle, always lock all
the doors by pressing the button on the
handle.
7)For versions equipped with the Keyless
Enter-N-Go system, do not leave the
electronic key inside or near the car or in
a place accessible to children. Do not
leave the vehicle with the ignition device
in MAR position. A child could activate
the electric window winders, other
controls or even start the vehicle.SENTRY KEY®
TheSentry Key®system, prevents
unauthorised use of the vehicle,
disabling engine starting.
The system does not need to be
enabled/activated: operation is
automatic, regardless of the fact that the
vehicle's doors are locked or unlocked.
When the ignition device is taken to
MAR, theSentry Key®system identifies
the code transmitted by the key. If the
code is recognised as valid, theSentry
Key®system enables engine starting.
When the ignition device is brought back
to STOP, theSentry Key®system
deactivates the control unit controlling
the engine, thus preventing its starting.
For the correct engine starting
procedures, see the instructions in the
"Starting the engine" paragraph, "Starting
and driving" chapter.
IRREGULAR OPERATION
If, during starting, the key code is not
correctly recognised, the
icon is
displayed on the instrument panel (see
the instructions in the "Warning lights
and messages" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter). This
condition leads to the engine switching
off after 2 seconds. In this case, bringthe ignition device to STOP and then to
MAR; if it is still blocked, try with the
other keys provided. If it is still not
possible to start the engine, contact a
Jeep Dealership.
If the
icon is displayed while driving,
this means that the system is running a
self-diagnosis (e.g. due to a voltage
drop). If the displaying is still on, contact
a Jeep Dealership.

WARNING
8)NEVER leave children unattended
inside the car, let alone leave the car with
the doors unlocked in a place that
children can access easily. Children may
seriously, or even fatally, injure
themselves. Also ensure that children do
not inadvertently operate the electric
parking brake, the brake pedal or the
automatic transmission lever.
9)Always use this device when carrying
children. After engaging the child lock on
both rear doors, check for effective
engagement by trying to open a door with
the internal handle.
10)Once the Dead Lock system is
engaged, it is impossible to open the
doors from inside the vehicle. Before
getting out of the car, please therefore
check that there is no-one left inside.
IMPORTANT
2)Make sure to take the key with you once
a door or the tailgate is locked, to prevent
locking the same key inside the vehicle. If
the key has been locked in, it can only be
recovered using the second provided key.
3)The operation of the recognition system
depends on various factors, such as, for
example, any electromagnetic wave
interference from external sources (e.g.
mobile phones), the charge of the battery
in the electronic key and the presence of
metal objects near the key or the car. In
these cases it is still possible to unlock the
doors by using the metal insert in the
electronic key (see description on the
following pages).

vehicle.
If:
the vehicle speed is below 3 km/h;the gear lever is not at P (Park)
(versions with automatic transmission);
the driver's seat belt is not fastened;the driver side door is open;no attempted operation of the brake

The Safe Hold function can be
temporarily disabled by pressing the
switch located on the central tunnel and
the brake pedal at the same time, with

STARTING AND DRIVING

Ignition key removal
The ignition key can be removed only if
the gear lever is in position P:
if the engine is switched off with the
gear lever in position P: the ignition key
can be removed within 30 seconds;
if the engine is switched off with the
gear lever in position other than P:move
the lever to P within 5 seconds. Once
this operation is completed, it will be
possible, for about 30 seconds, to extract
the ignition key.
In both cases, if the described conditions
and times are not respected, the ignition
key will be automatically locked.
To remove the key, turn it to MAR and
then to STOP, repeating the procedure
described above.
"RECOVERY" FUNCTIONS
In case of a gear lever failure, the
instrument panel display could show a
dedicated message recommending that
the driver continues driving without
shifting the lever to the P position.
In this case, the transmission will
maintain the forward gear (with reduced
performance) even if the lever is
positioned at R or N.
Once the lever is positioned at P, or after
shutting down the vehicle, selecting R or
any other forward gear will no longer be
possible. In this case, contact a Jeep
Dealership.WARNING
128)Never leave children unattended in
the car. Always remove the ignition key
when leaving the car and take the key with
you.
