NOTE:
The Rain Sensing feature will not operate
when the wiper switch is in the low or
high-speed position.
The Rain Sensing feature may not func-
tion properly when ice, or dried salt water
is present on the windshield.
Use of products containing wax or silicone
may reduce Rain Sensing performance.
The Rain Sensing feature can be turned on
and off using the Uconnect System, refer
to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia”
in the Owner’s Manual for further informa-
tion.
The Rain Sensing system has protection
features for the wiper blades and arms, and
will not operate under the following condi -
tions:
Change In Ignition Position — If the vehicle
is in Rain Sensing mode and the ignition
is cycled from OFF to ON, the auto wiper
will be suppressed until vehicle speed is
greater than 3 mph (5 km/h), or the wiper
switch is moved out of and back into the
Intermittent wipe position.
Transmission In NEUTRAL Position — The
Rain Sensing system will not operate if the
NEUTRAL gear is selected at speeds of
3 mph (5 km/h) or less unless the wiper
switch is moved or the gear selector is
moved out of NEUTRAL.
Remote Start Mode Inhibit — On vehicles
equipped with Remote Starting system,
Rain Sensing wipers are not operational
when the vehicle is in the remote start
mode. Once the operator is in the vehicle
and has placed the ignition switch in the
ON/RUN position, Rain Sensing wiper
operation can resume, if it has been
selected, and no other inhibit conditions
(mentioned previously) exist.
Rear Window Wiper/Washer
The rear wiper/washer controls are located on
the windshield wiper/washer lever on the
right side of the steering column. The rear
wiper/washer is operated by rotating a
switch, located at the middle of the lever. Rotate the center portion of the lever upward
to the first detent for intermittent operation
and to the second detent for continuous rear
wiper operation.
To use the washer, push the lever forward
and hold while spray is desired. If the lever
is pushed while the wiper is in the off posi
-
tion, the wiper will operate for several wipe
cycles, then turn off.
CLIMATE CONTROLS
The Climate Control System allows you to
regulate the temperature, air flow, and direc -
tion of air circulating throughout the vehicle.
The controls are located on the touchscreen
(if equipped) and on the instrument panel
below the radio.

Climate Control Functions
A/C (Air Conditioning)
The Air Conditioning (A/C) button allows the
operator to manually activate or deactivate
the air conditioning system. When the air
conditioning system is turned on, cool dehu-
midified air will flow through the outlets into
the cabin. For improved fuel economy, press
the A/C button to turn off the air conditioning
and manually adjust the blower and airflow
mode settings. Also, make sure to select only
Panel, Bi-Level, or Floor modes.
NOTE:
For Manual Climate Controls, if the system
is in Mix, Floor or Defrost Mode, the A/C
can be turned off, but the A/C system shall
remain active to prevent fogging of the
windows.
If fog or mist appears on the windshield or
side glass, select Defrost mode, and
increase blower speed if needed.
If your air conditioning performance
seems lower than expected, check the
front of the A/C condenser (located in front
of the radiator), for an accumulation of dirt
or insects. Clean with a gentle water spray
from the front of the radiator and through
the condenser. MAX A/C
MAX A/C sets the control for maximum
cooling performance.
Press and release to toggle between MAX A/
C and the prior settings. The button illumi
-
nates when MAX A/C is on.
In MAX A/C, the blower level and mode posi -
tion can be adjusted to desired user
settings. Pressing other settings will cause
the MAX A/C operation to switch to the
selected setting and MAX A/C to exit.
Recirculation
When outside air contains smoke, odors, or
high humidity, or if rapid cooling is desired,
you may wish to recirculate interior air by
pressing the Recirculation control button.
The Recirculation indicator will illuminate
when this button is selected. Press the
button a second time to turn off the Recircu -
lation mode and allow outside air into the
vehicle.
In cold weather, use of Recirculation mode
may lead to excessive window fogging. The
Recirculation feature may be unavailable
(button on the touchscreen greyed out) if
conditions exist that could create fogging on
the inside of the windshield.
Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
Automatic Operation
1. Push the AUTO button on the faceplate, or the AUTO button on the touchscreen
(if equipped) on the Automatic Tempera -
ture Control (ATC) Panel.
2. Next, adjust the temperature you would like the system to maintain by adjusting
the temperature control buttons. Once
the desired temperature is displayed, the
system achieves and automatically main -
tains that comfort level.
3. When the system is set up for your comfort level, it is not necessary to
change the settings. You experience the
greatest efficiency by simply allowing the
system to function automatically.
NOTE:
It is not necessary to move the tempera-
ture settings for cold or hot vehicles. The
system automatically adjusts the tempera-
ture, mode, and blower speed to provide
comfort as quickly as possible.
The temperature can be displayed in U.S.
or Metric units by selecting the U.S./
Metric customer-programmable feature.

(Continued)ESC Operating Modes
NOTE:
Depending upon model and mode of opera-
tion, the ESC system may have multiple
operating modes. ESC OFF Button
ESC On
This is the normal operating mode for the
ESC. Whenever the vehicle is started, the
ESC system will be in this mode. This mode
should be used for most driving conditions.
Alternate ESC modes should only be used for
specific reasons as noted in the following
paragraphs.
Partial Off
The “Partial Off” mode is intended for times
when a more spirited driving experience is
desired. This mode may modify TCS and ESC
thresholds for activation, which allows for
more wheel spin than normally allowed. This
mode may be useful if the vehicle becomes
stuck.
WARNING!
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) cannot
prevent the natural laws of physics from
acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase
the traction afforded by prevailing road
conditions. ESC cannot prevent acci -
dents, including those resulting from
excessive speed in turns, driving on very
slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning. ESC
also cannot prevent accidents resulting
from loss of vehicle control due to inap -
propriate driver input for the conditions.
Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver
can prevent accidents. The capabilities
of an ESC equipped vehicle must never
be exploited in a reckless or dangerous
manner which could jeopardize the
user’s safety or the safety of others.Vehicle modifications, or failure to prop -
erly maintain your vehicle, may change
the handling characteristics of your
vehicle, and may negatively affect the
performance of the ESC system.
Changes to the steering system, suspen -
sion, braking system, tire type and size
or wheel size may adversely affect ESC
performance. Improperly inflated and
unevenly worn tires may also degrade
ESC performance. Any vehicle modifica-
tion or poor vehicle maintenance that
reduces the effectiveness of the ESC
system can increase the risk of loss of
vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal
injury and death.
WARNING! (Continued)
2020_JEEP_M6_UG_UK.book Page 75

The gear selection must match vehicle
uphill direction (i.e., vehicle facing uphill
is in forward gear; vehicle backing uphill is
in REVERSE gear).
HSA will work in REVERSE gear and all
forward gears. The system will not activate
if the transmission is in PARK or
NEUTRAL. For vehicles equipped with a
manual transmission, if the clutch is
pressed, HSA will remain active.
Towing With HSA
HSA will also provide assistance to mitigate
roll back while towing a trailer.
Disabling And Enabling HSA
This feature can be turned on or turned off.
To change the current setting, proceed as
follows:
If disabling HSA using Uconnect Settings,
refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multi-
media” for further information.
Rain Brake Support (RBS)
Rain Brake Support (RBS) may improve
braking performance in wet conditions. It
will periodically apply a small amount of
brake pressure to remove any water buildup
on the front brake rotors. It functions when
the windshield wipers are in LO or HI speed.
When Rain Brake Support is active, there is
no notification to the driver and no driver
interaction is required.
Ready Alert Braking (RAB)
Ready Alert Braking (RAB) may reduce the
time required to reach full braking during
emergency braking situations. It anticipates
when an emergency braking situation may
occur by monitoring how fast the throttle is
released by the driver. The EBC will prepare
the brake system for a panic stop.
WARNING!
There may be situations where the Hill
Start Assist (HSA) will not activate and
slight rolling may occur, such as on minor
hills or with a loaded vehicle, or while
pulling a trailer. HSA is not a substitute for
active driving involvement. It is always the
driver’s responsibility to be attentive to
distance to other vehicles, people, and
objects, and most importantly brake
operation to ensure safe operation of the
vehicle under all road conditions. Your
complete attention is always required
while driving to maintain safe control of
your vehicle. Failure to follow these
warnings can result in a collision or serious
personal injury.
WARNING!
If you use a trailer brake controller with
your trailer, the trailer brakes may be
activated and deactivated with the brake
switch. If so, there may not be enough
brake pressure to hold both the vehicle
and the trailer on a hill when the brake
pedal is released. In order to avoid
rolling down an incline while resuming
acceleration, manually activate the
trailer brake or apply more vehicle brake
pressure prior to releasing the brake
pedal.
HSA is not a parking brake. Always apply
the parking brake fully when exiting your
vehicle. Also, be certain to place the
transmission in PARK.
Failure to follow these warnings can
result in a collision or serious personal
injury.
2020_JEEP_M6_UG_UK.book Page 79

81
NOTE:
The BSM system does NOT alert the driver
about rapidly approaching vehicles that
are outside the detection zones.
The BSM system detection zone DOES
NOT change if your vehicle is towing a
trailer. Therefore, visually verify the adja-
cent lane is clear for both your vehicle and
trailer before making a lane change. If the
trailer or other object (i.e., bicycle, sports
equipment) extends beyond the side of
your vehicle, this may result in the BSM
warning light remaining illuminated the
entire time the vehicle is in a forward gear.
It may be necessary to deactivate the BSM
system manually to avoid miss-detection.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multi-
media” in the Owner’s Manual for further
information.
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system
may experience drop outs (blinking on and
off) of the side mirror Warning Indicator
lamps when a motorcycle or any small
object remains at the side of the vehicle
for extended periods of time (more than a
couple of seconds).
The area on the rear fascia where the radar
sensors are located must remain free of
snow, ice, and dirt/road contamination so that the BSM system can function properly.
Do not block the area of the rear fascia where
the radar sensors are located with foreign
objects (bumper stickers, bicycle racks, etc.)
Radar Sensor Location (Passenger Side Shown)
The BSM system will provide a visual alert in
the appropriate side view mirror based on a
detected object. If the turn signal is then
activated, and it corresponds to an alert
present on that side of the vehicle, an
audible chime will also be sounded. When -
ever a turn signal and detected object are
present on the same side at the same time,
both the visual and audio alerts will be
issued. In addition to the audible alert the
radio (if on) will also be muted. Warning Light Location
The BSM system monitors the detection
zone from three different entry points (side,
rear, front) while driving to see if an alert is
necessary. The BSM system will issue an
alert during these types of zone entries.
Entering From The Side
Vehicles that move into your adjacent lanes
from either side of the vehicle.

SAFETY
92
Research has shown that seat belts save
lives, and they can reduce the seriousness of
injuries in a collision. Some of the worst inju-
ries happen when people are thrown from the
vehicle. Seat belts reduce the possibility of
ejection and the risk of injury caused by
striking the inside of the vehicle. Everyone in
a motor vehicle should be belted at all times.
Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder System
(BeltAlert)
Driver and Passenger BeltAlert (if equipped)
BeltAlert is a feature intended to remind
the driver and outboard front seat passenger
(if equipped with outboard front passenger
seat BeltAlert) to buckle their seat belts. The
Belt Alert feature is active whenever the igni -
tion switch is in the START or ON/RUN posi -
tion.
Initial Indication
If the driver is unbuckled when the ignition
switch is first in the START or ON/RUN posi -
tion, a chime will signal for a few seconds. If
the driver or outboard front seat passenger (if
equipped with outboard front passenger seat
BeltAlert) is unbuckled when the ignition
switch is first in the START or ON/RUN posi -
tion the Seat Belt Reminder Light will turn on and remain on until both outboard front
seat belts are buckled. The outboard front
passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when
an outboard front passenger seat is unoccu
-
pied.
BeltAlert Warning Sequence
The BeltAlert warning sequence is activated
when the vehicle is moving above a specified
vehicle speed range and the driver or
outboard front seat passenger is unbuckled
(if equipped with outboard front passenger
seat BeltAlert) (the outboard front passenger
seat BeltAlert is not active when the
outboard front passenger seat is unoccu -
pied). The BeltAlert warning sequence starts
by blinking the Seat Belt Reminder Light and
sounding an intermittent chime. Once the
BeltAlert warning sequence has completed,
the Seat Belt Reminder Light will remain on
until the seat belts are buckled. The
BeltAlert warning sequence may repeat
based on vehicle speed until the driver and
occupied outboard front seat passenger seat
belts are buckled. The driver should instruct
all occupants to buckle their seat belts. Change of Status
If the driver or outboard front seat passenger
(if equipped with outboard front passenger
seat BeltAlert) unbuckles their seat belt
while the vehicle is traveling, the BeltAlert
warning sequence will begin until the seat
belts are buckled again.
The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert
is not active when the outboard front
passenger seat is unoccupied. BeltAlert may
be triggered when an animal or other items
are placed on the outboard front passenger
seat or when the seat is folded flat (if
equipped). It is recommended that pets be
restrained in the rear seat (if equipped) in
pet harnesses or pet carriers that are secured
by seat belts, and cargo is properly stowed.
BeltAlert can be activated or deactivated by
an authorized dealer. FCA does not recom
-
mend deactivating BeltAlert.
NOTE:
If BeltAlert has been deactivated and the
driver or outboard front seat passenger (if
equipped with outboard front passenger seat
BeltAlert) is unbuckled the Seat Belt
Reminder Light will turn on and remain on
until the driver and outboard front seat
passenger seat belts are buckled.
