window JEEP RENEGADE 2018 Owner handbook (in English)

92)Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an
accident the child restraint system may
become loose and the child may be
injured, even fatally. When fitting a
restraint system for newborns or children,
strictly comply with the instructions
provided by the Manufacturer.
93)When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or with
the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from
the vehicle. Do not leave it unsecured
inside the passenger compartment. In this
way, in the case of sudden braking or an
accident, it will not cause injuries to the
occupants.
94)After installing a child restraint
system, do not move the seat: always
remove the child restraint system before
making any adjustment.
95)Always make sure that the chest
section of the seat belt does not pass
under the arms or behind the back of the
child. In the event of an accident the seat
belt will not be able to secure the child,
with the risk of injury, including fatal
injury. Therefore the child must always
wear the seat belt correctly.96)Do not use the same lower anchorage
to install more than one child restraint
system.
97)If a Universal ISOFIX child seat is not
fixed to all three anchorages, the child
seat will not be able to protect the child
correctly. In a crash, the child could be
seriously or fatally injured.
98)Fit the child restraint system when the
car is stationary. The child restraint
system is correctly fixed to the brackets
when you hear the click. Follow the
instructions for assembly, disassembly
and positioning that the Manufacturer
must supply with the child restraint
system.
99)If the vehicle was involved in an
accident of a certain severity, have the
ISOFIX anchorages and the child restraint
system replaced.
100)If the vehicle was involved in an
accident of a certain severity, have both
the child restraint system and the seat
belt it was attached to replaced.SUPPLEMENTARY
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)-
AIRBAG
The vehicle is equipped with:front driver airbag;front passenger airbag;driver and passenger front side bags
for pelvis, chest and shoulder protection
(Side bags);
front and rear side passenger side
bags for head protection (window bag).
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front driver/passenger airbags and
the driver knee bag (where provided)
protect the front seat occupants in the
event of frontal impacts of medium/high
severity, by placing the bag between the
occupant and the steering wheel or
dashboard.
Therefore non-activation of airbags in
other types of collisions (side impacts,
rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) does not
indicate a system malfunction.
The driver and passenger front airbags
are not a replacement for, but are
complementary to, the seat belts, which
should always be worn as required by law
in Europe and most non-European
countries.
In the event of impact, anyone not
wearing a seat belt is projected forwards
137

SIDE AIRBAGS
To help increase occupants protection in
the event of side impact collisions, the
vehicle is equipped with front side bags
and window bags.
Side bag
These consist of two bags located in the
front seat backrests fig. 102 that protect
the occupants’ pelvis, chest and shoulder
area in the event of a side impact of
medium/high severity. They are marked
by the "AIRBAG" label sewn on the outer
side of the front seats.
Window bag
This consists of a "curtain" bag housed
behind the roof side trim and covered by
special trims fig. 103. They are designed
to protect the head of front and rear
occupants in the event of a side
collision, thanks to the wide cushion
inflation surface.The deployment of side bags in the event
of side impacts of low severity is not
required.
In the event of a side impact, the system
provides best protection if the passenger
sits on the seat in a correct position, thus
allowing correct window bag deployment.

Important notes
Do not wash the seats with water or
pressurised steam (wash by hand or at
automatic seat washing stations).
The front and/or side airbags may
activate in the event of sharp impacts to
102J0A0178C103J0A0180C
141
the underbody of the vehicle (e.g. impact
with steps, pavements, potholes or road
bumps etc.).

When the airbag deploys it emits a small
amount of dust: the dust is harmless and
does not indicate the beginning of a fire.
The dust may irritate the skin and eyes
however: in this case, wash with neutral
soap and water.
Airbag checking, repair and replacement
must be carried out at a Jeep Dealership.
If the car is scrapped, have the airbag
system deactivated at a Jeep Dealership.
Pretensioners and airbags are deployed
in different ways on the basis of the type
of collision. Failure to activate one or
more of the devices does not indicate a
system malfunction.
WARNING
101)Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering wheel, on the dashboard in
the passenger side airbag area, on side
upholstery on the roof or on the seats.
Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on
the passenger side of the dashboard since
they could interfere with correct inflation
of the passenger airbag and also cause
serious injury to the passengers.102)Always drive with your hands on the
rim of the steering wheel so that the
airbag can inflate freely if required. Do not
drive with your body bent forward. Keep
your back straight against the backrest.
103)When there is an active passenger
airbag, DO NOT install rearward facing
child restraint systems on the front seat.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the child
regardless of the severity of the impact.
Therefore, always deactivate the passenger
side airbag when a rearward facing child
restraint system is installed on the front
passenger seat. The front passenger seat
must also be positioned back as far as
possible in order to prevent the child
restraint system from coming into contact
with the dashboard. Immediately
reactivate the passenger airbag as soon as
the child restraint system has been
removed.
104)Do not affix rigid objects to the
garment hooks or support handles.
105)Do not rest your head, arms or
elbows on the door, windows or the area in
which the Window bag is located to avoid
possible injury during airbag inflation.
106)Never lean your head, arms or elbows
out of the window.107)If, when the ignition device is turned
to MAR, the
warning light does not
switch on or stays on whilst driving, a fault
may have occurred in the restraint
systems. In this case the airbags or
pretensioners may not be deployed in an
impact or, in a lower number of cases,
they may be deployed accidentally. Before
continuing, contact a Jeep Dealership
immediately to have the system checked.
108)In some versions, in the event of a
LED
OFFfailure (located on the
dashboard trim), thewarning light on
the instrument panel turns on and the
passenger side airbags are deactivated. In
some versions, in the event of a LED
ONfailure (located on the dashboard
trim), thelight on the console turns
on.
109)On cars with side bags, do not cover
the front seat backrests with extra covers.
110)Do not travel carrying objects in your
lap, in front of your chest or between your
lips (pipe, pencils, etc.): they could cause
severe injury if the airbag is deployed.
111)If the car has been stolen or in the
case of attempt to steal it, if it has been
subjected to vandalism or floods, have the
airbag system checked by a Jeep
Dealership.

SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the car under
the best conditions. For this reason, Jeep
has planned a series of checks and
services at fixed distance intervals and,
where provided, at fixed time intervals,
as described in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan.
Before each coupon however you always
need to pay attention to what is written
in the Scheduled Servicing Plan (e.g.
periodically check liquid levels, tire
pressure, etc.).
The Scheduled Servicing is carried out
by the Jeep Assistance Network at
pre-set times. If, during each operation,
in addition to the ones scheduled, the
need arises for further replacements or
repairs, these may be carried out with the
owner's explicit agreement only. If your
car is used frequently for towing, the
interval between one scheduled servicing
operation and the next should be
reduced.
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
interventions are set out by the
Manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the
warranty. It is advisable to inform aJeep Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the
next service.
PERIODIC CHECKS
Every1,000km or before long trips
check and, if necessary, top up:
engine coolant level;brake fluid level;windscreen washer fluid level;tyre inflation pressure and condition;operation of lighting system
(headlights, direction indicators, hazard
warning lights, etc.);
operation of screen washer/wiper
system and positioning/wear of
windscreen/rear window wiper blades.
Every3,000km, check and top up if
required: engine oil level.
DEMANDING USE OF THE CAR
If the vehicle is used in one of the
following conditions:
Law enforcement (or security service),
taxi service
towing a trailer or caravan;dusty roads;short, repeated journeys (less than
7-8 km) at sub-zero outside
