GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
In-depth knowledge of your new vehicle
starts here.
The booklet that you are reading simply
and directly explains how it is made and
how it works.
That’s why we advise you to read it
seated comfortably on board, so that you
can see immediately what is described
here for yourself.THE KEYS.................16

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.

INTERIOR LIGHTS
FRONT CEILING LIGHT
Switch A fig. 34 is used to switch on/off
the roof light bulbs.
Switch positions:
central position: lights C and E switch
on/off when the doors are opened/closed;
pressed to the left (position OFF):
lights C and E are always switched off;
pressed to the right (position):
lights C and D are always switched on.
The lights switch on/off gradually.
Switch B fig. 34 switches light C on/off.
Switch D fig. 34 switches on/off light E.
Ceiling light timing
On certain versions, to facilitate getting
in/out of the vehicle at night or in
poorly-lit areas, two timed modes have
been provided: to enter and exit the car.

By operating ring nut B, the rear window
wiper can function in the following
modes:
continuous: when the ring is turned to
theposition;intermittent: when the ring nut is in
positionand the rear window wiper is
stopped;
synchronous: when the ring nut is in
positionand the rear window wiper is
moving or set to AUTO. In this mode, the
rear window wiper makes one stroke for
each two strokes of the windscreen
wiper;
single stroke: when the ring is in theposition, the windscreen wiper is
active and reverse gear is engaged.
Push the stalk towards the dashboard
(rocking position) to activate the rear
window washer jet. Keep pushing the
lever to automatically activate both the
rear window washer jet and the rear
window wiper with a single movement.
Deactivation
The function stops when the stalk is
released.
WARNING
21)Make sure the device is switched off
whenever the windscreen must be
cleaned.
IMPORTANT
7)Never use the windscreen wipers to
remove layers of snow or ice from the
windscreen. In such conditions, the
windscreen wiper may be subjected to
excessive stress and the motor cut-out
switch, which prevents operation for a few
seconds, may intervene. If operation is not
subsequently restored, even after
restarting the engine, contact a Jeep
Dealership.
8)Do not operate the windscreen wiper
with the blades lifted from the windscreen.
9)Do not activate the rain sensor when
washing the car in an automatic car wash.
10)Make sure the device is switched off if
there is ice on the windscreen.

Operation
The automatic dual zone climate control
system regulates the air temperatures in
the passenger compartment in two zones:
driver side and passenger side.
The system maintains comfort inside the
passenger compartment and
compensates for possible variations in
outside weather conditions.
The automatically controlled parameters
and functions are:
air temperature at the driver/front
passenger side vents;
air distribution at the driver/front
passenger side vents;
fan speed (continuous variation of the
air flow);
compressor engagement (for
cooling/dehumidifying the air);
air recirculation.
All these functions can be adjusted
manually by operating the system and
selecting one or more functions and
modifying their parameters.
The temperature of the air sent is always
automatically controlled according to the
temperature set on the display (exceptfor when the system is off or in certain
conditions when the compressor is not
running).
Notes
Do not apply stickers to the inside of the
heated rear window over the heating
filaments, to avoid damage that might
cause them to stop working properly.
Internal air recirculation makes it
possible to reach the required ("heating"
or "cooling") conditions more quickly
depending on the mode selected. Do not
use the air recirculation function on
rainy/cold days as it would considerably
increase the possibility of the windows
misting inside.
The dual zone automatic climate control
manages the Stop&Start system (engine
off and car at a standstill) in order to
guarantee sufficient comfort inside the
car.
With Stop&Start function on (engine off
and car stopped), the flow is reduced as
much as possible, to keep the
compartment comfort conditions for
longer.
