2023 JEEP RENEGADE TPMS

SAFETY 239
Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel
housings
Using tire chains on the vehicle
Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS
sensors
Vehicles With Matching Full-Size Spare

1. The matching full size spare wheel and tire asse m

bly has a Tire Pressure Monitoring
System sensor that can be monitored by the
TPMS.

2. If you install the full size spare in place of a road t
ire that has a pressure below the
low-pressure warning limit, a chime will sound
and the TPMS Light will turn on upon the next
ignition key cycle. In addition, the instrument
cluster will display a Tire Low message, an
"Inflate to XX" message and a graphic showing
the low tire pressure value in a different color.
3. After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minu
tes
above 1
5 mph (24 km/h) the “TPMS Light” will
turn of
f, as long as no tire pressure is below
the low-pressure warning limit in any of the
four active road tires.
4. The instrument cluster will display a graphic showin
g the tire pressure value in the same
color as the other pressure values in place of
the different color low tire pressure value. The
instrument cluster will also display a dedicated
message to remind you to service the flat tire. Vehicles With Compact Spare Or Non-Matching
Full
S

ize Spare

1. The compact spare tire or non-matching full size
does not have a Tire Pressure Monitoring
System sensor. Therefore, the TPMS will not
monitor the pressure in the compact spare
tire.

2. If you install the compact or non-matching full size

spare tire in place of a road tire that has a
pressure below the low-pressure warning limit,
upon the next ignition key cycle, the TPMS
Light will remain on and a chime will sound. In
addition, the graphic in the instrument cluster
will still display a different color pressure value
and an "Inflate to XX" message.
3. After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minu
tes
above 1
5 mph (24 km/h), the TPMS Light will
flash
on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on solid. In addition, the instrument
cluster will display a “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM”
message for five seconds and then display
dashes (--) in place of the pressure value.
4. For each subsequent ignition key cycle, a chime
will sound, the TPMS Light will flash on
and off for 75 seconds and then remain on
solid, and the instrument cluster will display a
“SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message for five
seconds and then display dashes (--) in place
of the pressure value. 5. Once you repair or replace the original road tire
and r

einstall it on the vehicle in place of the
compact spare or non-matching full size, the
TPMS will update automatically. In addition,
the TPMS Light will turn off and the graphic in
the instrument cluster will display a new
pressure value instead of dashes (--), as long
as no tire pressure is below the low-pressure
warning limit in any of the four active road
tires. The vehicle may need to be driven for up
to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in
order f

or the TPMS to receive this information.
TPMS Deactivation — If Equipped
The TPMS can be deactivated if replacing all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with wheel
and tire assemblies that do not have TPMS
sensors, such as when installing Winter wheel and
tire assemblies on your vehicle. To deactivate the
TPMS, first, replace all four wheel and tire
assemblies (road tires) with tires not equipped with
Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensors. Then,
drive the vehicle for 20 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km /

h). The TPMS will chime, the TPMS Light
w i
ll
f
lash on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on and the instrument cluster will display
the “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message and then
display dashes (--) in place of the pressure values.
Beginning with the next ignition switch cycle, the
TPMS will no longer chime or flash the TPMS and
6

240 SAFETY
display the “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message in
the instrument cluster display but dashes (--) will
remain in place of the pressure values.
To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four wheel and
tire a

ssemblies (road tires) with tires equipped with
TPMS sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for up to
20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS
will c

hime, the TPMS Light will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then turn off, and the instrument
cluster will display the “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM”
message. The instrument cluster will also display
pressure values in place of the dashes. On the next
ignition switch cycle the “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM”
message will no longer be displayed as long as no
system fault exists.
OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS
Some of the most important safety features in your
vehicle are the restraint systems:
OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS
Seat Belt Systems
Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS) Air Bags
Child Restraints
Some of the safety features described in this
secti on

may be standard equipment on some
models, or may be optional equipment on others. If
you are not sure, ask an authorized dealer.
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Please pay close attention to the information in
this section. It tells you how to use your restraint
system properly, to keep you and your passengers
as safe as possible.
Here are some simple steps you can take to
minimi
ze the risk of harm from a deploying air bag:

1. Children 12 years old and under should alway
s ride buckled up in the rear seat of a
vehicle with a rear seat.

2. A child who is not big enough to wear the vehi c

le seat belt properly must be secured in
the appropriate child restraint or
belt-positioning booster seat in a rear seating
position Ú page 255.
3. If a child from 2 to 12 years old (not in a rear-

facing child restraint) must ride in the
front passenger seat, move the seat as far
back as possible and use the proper child
restraint Ú page 255.
4. Never allow children to slide the shoulder belt behi n

d them or under their arm.
5. You should read the instructions provided with your c
hild restraint to make sure that you are
using it properly.
6. All occupants should always wear their lap and shoul d

er belts properly. 7. The driver and front passenger seats should
be m ov

ed back as far as practical to allow the
front air bags room to inflate.
8. Do not lean against the door or window. If your vehi c

le has side air bags, and deployment
occurs, the side air bags will inflate forcefully
into the space between occupants and the
door and occupants could be injured.
9. If the air bag system in this vehicle needs to be modif i

ed to accommodate a disabled person,
see Ú page 346 for customer service contact
information.
WARNING!
Never place a rear-facing child restraint in
front of an air bag. A deploying passenger
front air bag can cause death or serious injury
to a child 12 years or younger, including a
child in a rear-facing child restraint.
Never install a rear-facing child restraint in the
front seat of a vehicle. Only use a rear-facing
child restraint in the rear seat. If the vehicle
does not have a rear seat, do not transport a
rear-facing child restraint in that vehicle.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 331
condition, please replace the TPMS sensor as it is
not designed to be reused when driven under Run
Flat mode 14 psi (96 kPa) condition.
NOTE:
TPMS sensor must be replaced after driving the
vehic l
e on a flat tire condition.
It is not recommended driving a vehicle loaded at
full c
apacity or to tow a trailer while a tire is in the
Run Flat mode.
See the Tire Pressure Monitoring System section
for mor e

information Ú page 235.
Tire Spinning
When stuck in mud, sand, snow, or ice conditions,
do not spin your vehicle's wheels above 30
mph
( 4
8 k
m /
h) or for longer than 30 seconds
contin u
ously without stopping.
For further information Ú page 282.
Tread Wear Indicators
Tread wear indicators are in the original equipment
tires to help you in determining when your tires
should be replaced.

Tire Tread

These indicators are molded into the bottom of the
tread
grooves. They will appear as bands when the
tread depth becomes a 1/16 of an inch (1.6 mm).
When t

he tread is worn to the tread wear
indicators, the tire should be replaced.
For further information Ú page 332.
Life Of Tire
The service life of a tire is dependent upon varying
factors including, but not limited to:
Driving style.
Tire pressure - Improper cold tire inflation pres -
sures can cause uneven wear patterns to
d ev
e l
op
across the tire tread. These abnormal
wear patterns will reduce tread life, resulting in
the need for earlier tire replacement.
Distance driven.
Performance tires, tires with a speed rating of V
or higher, and Summer tires typically have a
reduced tread life. Rotation of these tires per
the vehicle scheduled maintenance is highly
recommended.
NOTE:
Wheel valve stem must be replaced as well when
insta l
ling new tires due to wear and tear in existing
tires.
WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces
generated by excessive wheel speeds may
cause tire damage or failure. A tire could
explode and injure someone. Do not spin your
vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h)
for more

than 30 seconds continuously when
you are stuck, and do not let anyone near a
spinning wheel, no matter what the speed.
1 — Worn Tire
2 — New TireWARNING!
Tires and the spare tire should be replaced after
six years, regardless of the remaining tread.
Failure to follow this warning can result in
sudden tire failure. You could lose control and
have a collision resulting in serious injury or
death.
