62)When "Systems disabled" mode is
selected, the ESC system will not be
available in the event of emergency
manoeuvres. "Systems disabled" mode is
only for off-road use.AUXILIARY DRIVING
SYSTEMS
BSM (Blind Spot
Monitoring) SYSTEM
(where provided)
The system uses two radar sensors,
located in the rear bumper (one for
each side - see fig. 55), to detect the
presence of vehicles (vehicles, trucks,
motorbikes, etc.) in the rear side blind
spots of your vehicle.
The system warns the driver about the
presence of vehicles in the detection
area by lighting up, on the relevant side,
the warning light located on the door
mirror fig. 56, along with an acoustic
warning. When the vehicle is started the
warning light turns on to signal the
driver that the system is active.
Sensors
The sensors are activated engaging any
forward gear at a speed higher than
about 10 km/h, or engaging the reverse
gear.
The sensors are temporarily
deactivated with vehicle at a standstill
and the gear lever in position P (Park)
(versions with automatic transmission),
or with vehicle at a standstill and
electric parking brake engaged
(versions with manual gearbox).

70)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.
71)The TPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre
pressure drops (e.g. if a tyre bursts). In
this case, stop the vehicle, braking with
care and avoiding sharp steering actions.
72)Replacing the normal tyres with winter
tyres and vice versa requires an inspection
of the TPMS, which should be carried
out only by a Jeep Dealership.
73)Changes in outside temperature may
cause tyre pressures to vary. The system
may temporarily indicate insufficient
pressure. In this case check the tyre
inflation pressure with the tyres cold and, if
necessary top up the inflation pressure.
74)When a tyre is removed, it is advisable
to replace the rubber gasket for the valve:
go to 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. Go to a
Jeep Dealership.
WARNING
23)The system may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such
as: heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow.
24)The section of the bumper before
the sensor must not be covered with
adhesives, auxiliary headlights or any other
object.
25)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.
26)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.
27)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.
28)Do not tamper 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.
29)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.30)Do not wash with high-pressure jets in
the bumper lower area: in particular do
not operate on the system's electrical
connector.
31)Be careful in the case of repairs and
new paintings in the area around the
sensor (panel covering the sensor on the
left side of the bumper). In the event of
a frontal impact the sensor may
automatically deactivate and display a
warning to indicate that the sensor needs
to be repaired. Even without a malfunction
warning, deactivate the system operation
if you think that the position of the radar
sensor has changed (e.g. due to
low-speed frontal impact as during parking
manoeuvres). In these cases, go to a
Jeep Dealership to have the radar sensor
realigned or replaced.
32)The tyre quick repair kit (TireKit),
provided with the vehicle, is compatible
with the TPMS sensors. Using sealants
different from that in the original kit may
compromise its operation. If sealants not
equivalent with the original one are used, it
is recommended to have the TPMS sensor
operation checked by a qualified repair
centre.

❒connect the other end of the cable
used for positive (+) to the positive
terminal (+) of the auxiliary battery;
❒connect one end of the cable used
for negative (–) to the negative terminal
(–) of the auxiliary battery;
❒Connect the other end of the cable
used for negative (–) to an engine earth
(the visible metal part of the vehicle
engine with flat battery) away from the
battery and the fuel injection system;
❒start the vehicle engine with the
auxiliary battery, let it run for a
few minutes at idling. Start the engine
of the vehicle with flat battery.
Cable disconnection.
Once the engine has been started,
remove the cables proceeding as
follows:
❒disconnect the end of the cable used
for negative (–) from the engine earth
of the vehicle with flat battery;
❒disconnect the other end of the cable
used for negative (–) to the negative
terminal (–) of the auxiliary battery;
❒disconnect the end of the cable used
for positive (+) to the positive terminal
(+) of the auxiliary battery;
❒disconnect one end of the cable
used for positive (+) from the positive
terminal (+) of the vehicle with flat
battery;If it is often necessary to perform an
emergency starting, have the vehicle
battery and the recharging system
checked by a Jeep Dealership.
IMPORTANT Any accessories (e.g.
mobile phones, etc.) connected to the
vehicle current sockets, draw current
even if they are not used. These
devices, if left connected too much time
with engine off, may cause the battery
to drain with following reduction of
its life and/or failure to start the engine.
WARNING
157)Do not get too close to the radiator
cooling fan: the electric fan may start;
danger of injury. Pay attention to scarves,
ties and other loose clothing which might
be pulled by moving parts.
158)Remove any metal objects (e.g. rings,
watches, bracelets), that might cause an
accidental electrical contact and cause
serious injury.
159)Batteries contain acid which may burn
skin and eyes. Batteries produce
hydrogen, which is easily flammable and
explosive. Thus keep away flames or
devices which may cause sparks.
WARNING
56)Do not connect the cable to the
negative terminal (–) of the flat battery. The
following spark could lead to battery
explosion and cause serious harm. Only
use the specific earth point; do not use any
other exposed metallic part.
