2023 JEEP WAGONEER warning lights

152STARTING AND OPERATING
INDICATIONS ON THE DISPLAY
The Active Driving Assist system status can always be
viewed in the instrument cluster display, and status
changes are shown by changes in color of the system’s
indicator lights.
As the system detects driver inattentiveness as previously
described
Úpage 148, the system status indicator lights
will change from green, to yellow, to red. The following
indicators will change in color as warnings to the driver
escalate:
 Active Driving Assist Indicator (steering wheel icon in
the instrument cluster display or Head Up Display
[if equipped])
 Glow effect of the instrument cluster display
 For Hands-Free ADA only, light strips in the driver and
front passenger’s door panels (red and green only)
For Base ADA, if driver attention is not returned, the
system will deactivate.
For Hands-Free ADA, if driver attention is not returned, the
system will perform a Stop-In-Lane maneuver. Once the
vehicle is at a standstill, the vehicle will be shifted to PARK
and the Electric Park Brake (EPB) will be applied. Then, the
vehicle will attempt to place an emergency call through
the Assist and SOS system. If too many Stop-In-Lane
maneuvers are initiated, or if one is completed, the system
will be unavailable until the ignition is cycled OFF, then
back to ON. Active Driving Assist Indicators Are Off

ADA is not turned on/enabled by the driver.
Active Driving Assist Indicators Are White
 ADA is turned on/enabled by the driver, but the system
is not actively steering and providing speed control for
the vehicle.
Active Driving Assist Indicators Are Green
 System is actively steering and providing speed control
for the vehicle and the system detects driver is atten -
tive.
Active Driving Assist Indicators Are Yellow
 Driver inattentiveness has been detected, warning the
driver to place hands on the steering wheel, or look
back toward the road (if equipped with the Hands-Free
system).
Active Driving Assist Indicators Are Red
 Driver inattentiveness is still being detected, or driver
take-over is being requested, warning the driver to
place hands on the steering wheel, or if equipped with
the Hands-Free system, take control of the vehicle.
NOTE:For both Base ADA and Hands-Free ADA, the driver MUST
replace hands on the steering wheel and take control of
the vehicle when the system is deactivated.

WARNING!
Active Driving Assist is an SAE Level 2 Driver Assist
feature, requiring driver attention at all times. To
prevent serious injury or death:
Always remember that the Active Driving Assist
system is a convenience system that cannot accu -
rately detect all situations. Complete attention is
always required while driving, even when using the
Active Driving Assist system.
 Always remain alert and be ready to take control of
the vehicle in the event that the Active Driving Assist
system deactivates, or otherwise lacks full function -
ality as described further before and after this
statement.
 Always keep your hands on the steering wheel when
the Base Active Driving Assist system is activated.
 Always keep your eyes on the road when the
Hands-Free Active Driving Assist system is activated.
 Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles and pay
attention to traffic conditions.
 Do not use a hand held device when either Base or
Hands-Free Active Driving Assist system is engaged.
 Always pay attention to the road when the
Hands-Free Active Driving Assist system is engaged.
The Active Driving Assist system will not steer to
avoid safety hazards, construction zones, objects, or
road impediments. You need to take control to steer
and brake the vehicle in such situations, and when
merging into traffic, exiting the highway, making a
turn for crossing traffic, or stopping for traffic control
devices.
 Do not place any objects on the steering wheel (e.g.
steering wheel covers) which could interfere with the
hand detection sensors.

NIGHT VISION CAMERA SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Night Vision Camera
system which uses an infrared camera to view the area
ahead of the vehicle, beyond the headlights, to detect
people and large animals when it is dark outside.
The system detects pedestrians or large animals by
measuring the temperature difference between the object
and the surrounding area.
The thermal objects detected by the camera can be
displayed in the instrument cluster display. Scroll to the
Night Vision page in the instrument cluster display menu
Úpage 104 to display the Night Vision screen.
Warm objects (e.g. animals) will appear lighter on the
display while cold objects (e.g. traffic signs) will appear
darker.
NOTE:
 Night Vision only shows objects of interest that are
warmer or colder than the surroundings.
 Adjust the instrument cluster dimmer control bright -
ness to make the image appear brighter or dimmer.
To exit out of the Night Vision screen, select a different
menu in the instrument cluster display.
A yellow or red border and box highlight will appear around
objects of interest. More than one object of interest may
be highlighted.

Highlight Around Objects Of Interest

The highlighting of the object(s) of interest will update in
real time based upon the current Night Vision
assessment.
The Night Vision system display can be deactivated under
certain conditions. See
Úpage 174 for further
information.
The two categories of Night Vision warnings are
Pedestrian Warnings and Animal Warnings.
Pedestrian Warning Telltale
Animal Warning Telltale
A Pedestrian or Animal Warning is considered either Level
1 or Level 2. Level 1 warnings are yellow, and Level 2
warnings are red. The colors are not configurable.

23_WS_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 172

STARTING AND OPERATING173
(Continued)
Level 1 Warnings:

Yellow telltale in the instrument cluster display
 Yellow highlights around the detected
pedestrian/animal
 Occurs when the vehicle is moving at speeds greater
than 8 mph (13 km/h) and the target is in or
approaching the vehicle path
Level 2 Warnings:
 Red telltale in the instrument cluster display
 Red highlights around the detected pedestrian/animal
 Occurs when the vehicle is moving at speeds greater
than 8 mph (13 km/h) and a collision with the detected
pedestrian/animal is possible
 The pedestrian/animal is directly in the vehicle path,
close to the headlight area
 A video pop-up will display when there is a target
detected and the instrument cluster display is not
showing the Night Vision page
 A chime will sound for a Level 2 Warning detection
event
Only one telltale can be displayed at a time based upon
priority.
The priority order of the warnings from highest to lowest is:

1. Pedestrian Warning Level 2

2. Animal Warning Level 2
3. Pedestrian Warning Level 1
4. Animal Warning Level 1
Level 2 Warnings may display in the Head Up Display
(if equipped).
NOTE:If the vehicle is stopped, or slowing down, all Level 2
warnings become Level 1 warnings.
You can enable or disable the warnings within the
Uconnect system
Úpage 197.
If the warnings are off, the telltales, chimes, and warning
messages will all be off. Pedestrians and animals can still
be detected by the system, but there will be no warnings. The Night Vision alert status telltale will be gray
when the warnings are suppressed. The telltale
will also turn gray to indicate that the alerts are
suppressed due to environmental factors (e.g.
daylight hours, external temperature is greater than 86°F
(30°C)) or if the gear selector is in REVERSE. When the
Night Vision alerts are active, the telltale will be green
Úpage 108.
Camera Washers
When the front window washer is activated, the Night
Vision camera will also be washed
Úpage 63.DETECTION RANGE
The system can detect people 4 ft (1.25 m) tall or greater
in the upright position. The system can also detect
animals that are four-legged and 3 ft (1 m) tall or greater
in the upright position.
The detection distance for the system is between 26 ft
(8 m) and 328 ft (100 m) from the front of the vehicle.WARNING!
 Do not jerk the steering wheel in response to a
warning.
 Never attempt to swerve around animals if doing so
would endanger you or others.
 Do not stare at the image while driving. You could
crash and you or others could be injured.
The Night Vision system only provides alerts to
objects of interest and cannot serve as a substitute
for the driver’s personal judgment. The warnings are
meant to direct your attention to the detected
objects, but the Night Vision system does not auto -
matically brake the vehicle and may not provide a
warning with enough time to help avoid a crash.
 Warnings are only provided if a pedestrian or large
animal is detected by the system.
 It is always the driver’s responsibility to be attentive
of road, traffic, and weather conditions, vehicle
speed, distance to the vehicle ahead, and most
importantly, brake operation, to ensure safe opera -
tion of the vehicle under all road conditions. Your
complete attention is always required while driving to
maintain safe control of your vehicle.

23_WS_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 188

192STARTING AND OPERATING
Use the following procedure to prepare your vehicle for
recreational towing:

1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop on level ground,
with the engine running.

2. Press and hold the brake pedal.
3. Shift the transmission into NEUTRAL.
4. If vehicle is equipped with Quadra-Lift air suspension, ensure the vehicle is set to Normal Ride Height.
NOTE:
Steps 1 through 4 are requirements that must be
met before pushing the N (Neutral) button, and
must continue to be met until the shift has been
completed. If any of these requirements are not
met before pushing the N (Neutral) button or are
no longer met during the shift, then the N (Neutral)
indicator light will flash continuously until all
requirements are met or until the N (Neutral)
button is released.
 The ignition must be in the ON/RUN position for a
shift to take place and for the position indicator
lights to be operable. If the ignition is not in the
ON/RUN position, the shift will not take place and
no position indicator lights will be on or flashing.
 A flashing N (Neutral) position indicator light indi-
cates that shift requirements have not been met. 
If the vehicle is equipped with Quadra-Lift air
suspension, the engine should be started and left
running for a minimum of 60 seconds (with all the
doors closed) at least once every 24 hours. This
process allows the air suspension to adjust the
vehicle’s ride height to compensate for tempera -
ture effects.
 Engaging/disengaging of the Electric Park Brake
requires the ignition to be in the ON/RUN position.
5. Using a ballpoint pen or similar object, push and hold the recessed transfer case N (Neutral) button
(located by the selector switch) for five seconds. The
light behind the N symbol will begin to blink red,
indicating shift in progress. The light will stop blinking
(stay on solid) when the shift to N (Neutral) is
complete. A “4WD Neutral Warning Vehicle May Move
Even in Park” message will appear in the instrument
cluster.

N (Neutral) Button

6. After the shift is completed and the N (Neutral) light stays on, release the N (Neutral) button.
7. Shift the transmission into REVERSE or DRIVE.
8. Release the brake pedal for five seconds and ensure that there is no vehicle movement.
9. Press and hold the brake pedal. Shift the transmission back into NEUTRAL.
10. Apply the Electric Park Brake.
11. With the transmission and transfer case in N (Neutral), push and hold the ENGINE START/STOP
button until the engine turns off. Ensure vehicle is in
RUN position with the engine off.
12. Place the transmission gear selector in PARK. Release the brake pedal.
