IMPORTANT In versions with a sun
roof, make sure that the sun roof is
closed before operating the window
washer jets.
Rear window washer
The rear window washer jets are fixed.
The nozzle holder is located above
the rear window.
WARNING
176)The air intake system (air cleaner,
rubber hoses, etc.) can be a protection in
the case of blowbacks from the engine.
DO NOT REMOVE this system unless you
need to carry out repair or servicing
operations. Before starting the engine
make sure the system is not dismantled:
failure to comply with this precaution
may cause serious injuries.
177)Exhaust emissions are very
dangerous and may be fatal. They contain
carbon monoxide, a colourless and
odourless gas which, if inhaled, may cause
fainting and poisoning.
178)The exhaust system can reach high
temperatures and cause a fire if the vehicle
is parked on flammable material. Dry grass
or leaves can also catch fire if they come
into contact with the exhaust system.
Do not park or use the vehicle in a place in
which the exhaust system might come
into contact with flammable material.
WARNING
64)Incorrect maintenance of the vehicle or
failure to carry out operations or repairs
(when necessary) may lead to more
expensive repairs, damage to other
components or a negative impact on the
vehicle performance. Have any operating
faults immediately checked by a Jeep
Dealership.
65)The vehicle is equipped with fluids
optimised for protecting its performance
and duration, and to extend servicing
intervals. Do not use chemicals for washing
these components since they may
damage the engine, the gearbox or the
climate control system. This damage is not
covered by the vehicle’s warranty. If, due
to malfunction of a component, washing is
needed, only use the fluid specific for
that procedure.
66)An excessive or insufficient amount of
oil in the block is extremely harmful for
the engine. Make sure it is always at an
adequate level.
67)Always require the use of only
compressor coolants and lubricants
approved and suitable for the specific air
conditioning system fitted on the vehicle.
Some non-approved coolants are
flammable and may explode, with the risk
of injuries. The use of non-approved
coolants or lubricants may adversely affect
system efficiency, leading to expensive
repairs.68)The air conditioning system contains
high-pressure coolant: to prevent damage
to people or the system, any topping-up
with fuel or repairs that involves
disconnection of the pipes must be carried
out by a Jeep Dealership.
69)Vehicles equipped with a catalytic
converter must be exclusively supplied with
unleaded petrol. Leaded petrol would
permanently damage the catalytic
converter and eliminate its ability to reduce
polluting emissions, seriously
compromising the engine performance,
which would be irreparably damaged. If the
engine does not work correctly, especially
if it starts irregularly or if there is a reduction
of its performance, immediately go to a
Jeep Dealership. Prolonged and faulty
operation of the engine may cause
overheating of the converter and, as a
consequence, possible damage to the
converter and the vehicle.
70)Using a gearbox fluid different from that
approved may compromise gearshifting
quality and/or cause vibration of the
gearbox itself.
71)It is recommended to have the vehicle
serviced by a Jeep Dealership. When
carrying out normal periodic operations
and small servicing interventions personally
on the vehicle, it is recommended to use
suitable equipment, original spare parts
and the necessary fluids. Do not carry out
any interventions if you don't have the
necessary experience.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
WARNING
MySky SUN ROOF
❒While refitting the panels, pay special attention to prevent any trapping of fingers, scarves, ties and loose clothing; they might be trapped
under the panels themselves.
ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
❒Before driving, make sure that the transversal bars have been fitted properly.
SUGGESTIONS FOR DRIVING
❒If the engine stalls, the vehicle skids or it is not possible to drive in a straight line on the top of a hill or a road with a gradient, do not try to
do a U-turn for any reason. This operation would result in the vehicle rolling over. Back up on the stretch of road with a gradient, shifting to
reverse and proceeding with the utmost care. Do not travel downhill with gearbox in neutral and using only the brake.
❒The presence of abrasive material on the brakes may cause excessive wear or adversely affect its correct operation. If the vehicle is driven
in particularly dusty environments, have the brakes checked and cleaned as necessary.
INTERIORS
❒Never use flammable products, such as petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean the inside of the vehicle. The electrostatic charges which are
generated by rubbing during the cleaning operation may cause a fire.
❒Do not keep aerosol cans in the vehicle: danger of explosion. Aerosol cans must not be exposed to a temperature exceeding 50°C. When
the vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the internal temperature can greatly exceed this value.
❒There must be no obstacles on the floor underneath the pedals; make sure that mats are always flat and do not interfere with the pedals.
SUPPLY
❒Modifications or repairs to the supply system that are not carried out correctly or do not take the system technical specifications into
account can cause malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
