GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
66
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute
for proper tire maintenance, and it is the
driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire
pressure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumination of
the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate
when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the
telltale will flash for approximately one
minute and then remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the
malfunction exists. When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the system may not
be able to detect or signal low tire pressure
as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur
for a variety of reasons, including the instal -
lation of replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS
from functioning properly. Always check the
TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing
one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alternate
tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue
to function properly.
Towing Hook Breakdown Warning Light — If
Equipped
This light illuminates when there is
a failure with the tow hook. Contact
an authorized dealer for service.
Yellow Indicator Lights
4WD Low Indicator Light — If Equipped
This light alerts the driver that the
vehicle is in the four-wheel drive
LOW mode. The front and rear drive -
shafts are mechanically locked together
forcing the front and rear wheels to rotate at
the same speed. Low range provides a
greater gear reduction ratio to provide
increased torque at the wheels.
Refer to “Four-Wheel Drive Operation — If
Equipped” in “Starting And Operating” for
further information on four-wheel drive oper -
ation and proper use.
4WD Lock Indicator Light
This light alerts the driver that the
vehicle is in the four-wheel drive
LOCK mode. The front and rear
driveshafts are mechanically locked
together, forcing the front and rear wheels to
rotate at the same speed.
Refer to “Four-Wheel Drive Operation — If
Equipped” in “Starting And Operating” for
further information on four-wheel drive oper -
ation and proper use.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the
original equipment tires and wheels.
TPMS pressures and warning have been
established for the tire size equipped on
your vehicle. Undesirable system operation
or sensor damage may result when using
replacement equipment that is not of the
same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket
wheels can cause sensor damage. Using
aftermarket tire sealants may cause the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
sensor to become inoperable. After using
an aftermarket tire sealant it is
recommended that you take your vehicle to
an authorized dealer to have your sensor
function checked.

SAFETY
SAFETY FEATURES
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) provides
increased vehicle stability and brake perfor-
mance under most braking conditions. The
system automatically prevents wheel lock,
and enhances vehicle control during braking.
The ABS performs a self-check cycle to
ensure that the ABS is working properly each
time the vehicle is started and driven. During
this self-check, you may hear a slight
clicking sound as well as some related motor
noises.
ABS is activated during braking when the
system detects one or more wheels begin to
lock. Road conditions such as ice, snow,
gravel, bumps, railroad tracks, loose debris,
or panic stops may increase the likelihood of
ABS activation(s).
You also may experience the following when
ABS activates:
The ABS motor noise (it may continue to
run for a short time after the stop)
The clicking sound of solenoid valves
Brake pedal pulsations
A slight drop of the brake pedal at the end
of the stop
These are all normal characteristics of ABS.
ABS is designed to function with the Original
Equipment Manufacturer’s tires. Modifica-
tion may result in degraded ABS perfor -
mance.
Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light
The yellow “Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light”
will turn on when the ignition is turned to the
ON/RUN mode and may stay on for as long
as four seconds.
If the “Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light”
remains on or comes on while driving, it indi -
cates that the anti-lock portion of the brake
system is not functioning and that service is
required. However, the conventional brake
system will continue to operate normally if
the “Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light” is on.
WARNING!
The ABS contains sophisticated elec-
tronic equipment that may be suscep -
tible to interference caused by
improperly installed or high output radio
transmitting equipment. This interfer -
ence can cause possible loss of anti-lock
braking capability. Installation of such
equipment should be performed by qual -
ified professionals.
Pumping of the Anti-Lock Brakes will
diminish their effectiveness and may
lead to a collision. Pumping makes the
stopping distance longer. Just press
firmly on your brake pedal when you
need to slow down or stop.
The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws
of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor
can it increase braking or steering effi -
ciency beyond that afforded by the
condition of the vehicle brakes and tires
or the traction afforded.
The ABS cannot prevent collisions,
including those resulting from excessive
speed in turns, following another vehicle
too closely, or hydroplaning.
The capabilities of an ABS equipped
vehicle must never be exploited in a
reckless or dangerous manner that could
jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety
of others.
WARNING! (Continued)
2020_JEEP_M6_UG_UK.book Page 72

73
If the “Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light” is on,
the brake system should be serviced as soon
as possible to restore the benefits of
anti-lock brakes. If the “Anti-Lock Brake
Warning Light” does not come on when the
ignition is turned to the ON/RUN mode, have
the light repaired as soon as possible.
Electronic Brake Control System
Your vehicle is equipped with an advanced
Electronic Brake Control system (EBC). This
system includes Electronic Brake Force
Distribution (EBD), Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS), Brake Assist System (BAS), Hill Start
Assist (HSA), Traction Control System (TCS),
Electronic Stability Control (ESC), and Elec-
tronic Roll Mitigation (ERM). These systems
work together to enhance both vehicle
stability and control in various driving condi -
tions.
Your vehicle may also be equipped with
Ready Alert Braking (RAB), Rain Brake
Support (RBS), Trailer Sway Control (TSC),
Hill Descent Control (HDC), and Dynamic
Steering Torque (DST).
Brake Assist System (BAS) — If Equipped
The Brake Assist System (BAS) is designed
to optimize the vehicle’s braking capability during emergency braking maneuvers. The
system detects an emergency braking situa
-
tion by sensing the rate and amount of brake
application and then applies optimum pres -
sure to the brakes. This can help reduce
braking distances. The BAS complements
the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS). Applying
the brakes very quickly results in the best
BAS assistance. To receive the benefit of the
system, you must apply continuous braking
pressure during the stopping sequence, (do
not “pump” the brakes). Do not reduce brake
pedal pressure unless braking is no longer
desired. Once the brake pedal is released,
the BAS is deactivated.
Brake System Warning Light
The red “Brake System Warning Light” will
turn on when the ignition is turned to the ON/
RUN mode and may stay on for as long as
four seconds.
If the “Brake System Warning Light”
remains on or comes on while driving, it indi -
cates that the brake system is not func -
tioning properly and that immediate service
is required. If the “Brake System Warning
Light” does not come on when the ignition is
turned to the ON/RUN mode, have the light
repaired as soon as possible.
Dynamic Steering Torque (DST)
Dynamic Steering Torque (DST) is a feature
of the ESC and Electric Power Steering
(EPS) modules that provides torque at the
steering wheel for certain driving conditions
in which the ESC module is detecting vehicle
instability. The torque that the steering
wheel receives is only meant to help the
driver realize optimal steering behavior in
order to reach/maintain vehicle stability. The
only notification the driver receives that the
feature is active is the torque applied to the
steering wheel. WARNING!
The Brake Assist System (BAS) cannot
prevent the natural laws of physics from
acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase
the traction afforded by prevailing road
conditions. BAS cannot prevent collisions,
including those resulting from excessive
speed in turns, driving on very slippery
surfaces, or hydroplaning. The capabilities
of a BAS-equipped vehicle must never be
exploited in a reckless or dangerous
manner, which could jeopardize the user's
safety or the safety of others.

To enter the “Partial Off” mode, momentarily
push the “ESC OFF” switch and the “ESC
Off Indicator Light” will illuminate. To turn
the ESC on again, momentarily push the
“ESC OFF” switch and the “ESC Off Indi-
cator Light” will turn off.
NOTE:
When driving with snow chains, or when
starting off in deep snow, sand, or gravel, it
may be desirable to allow more wheel spin.
This can be accomplished by momentarily
pushing the “ESC Off” button to enter partial
mode “Partial Off” mode. Once the situation
requiring “Partial Off” mode is overcome,
turn ESC back on by momentarily pushing
the “ESC OFF” button. This may be done
while the vehicle is in motion. Full Off (Four-Wheel Drive Models Only)
This mode is intended for off-highway or
off-road use when ESC stability features
could inhibit vehicle maneuverability due to
trail conditions. This mode is entered by
pushing and holding the “ESC OFF” switch
for five seconds when the vehicle is stopped
and the engine is running. After five
seconds, the "ESC Off Indicator Light" will
illuminate and the “ESC Off” message will
appear in the instrument cluster display.
In this mode, ESC and TCS, except for the
“limited slip” feature described in the TCS
section, are turned off until the vehicle
reaches a speed of 40 mph (64 km/h). At
40 mph (64 km/h), the system returns to
“Partial Off” mode, as described above. TCS
remains off. When the vehicle speed drops
below 30 mph (48 km/h), the ESC system
shuts off. ESC is deactivated at low vehicle
speeds so that it will not interfere with
off-road driving. However, ESC function returns to provide the stability feature at
speeds above 40 mph (64 km/h). The "ESC
Off Indicator Light" will always be illumi
-
nated when ESC is off.
To turn ESC on again, momentarily push the
“ESC Off” switch. This will restore the “ESC
On” mode of operation.
NOTE:
The “ESC Off” message will display and an
audible chime will sound when the gear
selector is placed into the PARK position
from any other position, and then moved out
of the PARK position. This will occur even if
the message was previously cleared.
WARNING!
When in “Partial Off” mode, the TCS
functionality of ESC, (except for the
limited slip feature described in the TCS
section), has been disabled and the
“ESC Off Indicator Light” will be illumi -
nated. When in “Partial Off” mode, the
engine power reduction feature of TCS is
disabled, and the enhanced vehicle
stability offered by the ESC system is
reduced.
Trailer Sway control (TSC) is disabled
when the ESC system is in the “Partial
Off” mode.
WARNING! (Continued)
WARNING!
In the "Full Off" mode, the engine torque
reduction and stability features are
disabled. In an emergency evasive
maneuver, the ESC system will not engage
to assist in maintaining stability. “ESC
Off” mode is intended for off-highway or
off-road use only.

Premium System
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
uses wireless technology with wheel rim
mounted electronic sensors to monitor tire
pressure levels. Sensors, mounted to each
wheel as part of the valve stem, transmit tire
pressure readings to the receiver module.
NOTE:
It is particularly important for you to check
the tire pressure in all of the tires on your
vehicle monthly and to maintain the proper
pressure.
The TPMS consists of the following compo-
nents:
Receiver Module
Four Tire Pressure Monitoring sensors
Various Tire Pressure Monitoring System
messages, which will display in the instru -
ment cluster display.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning
Light
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure
Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring
System Warning Light will illumi -nate in the instrument cluster and a chime
will sound when tire pressure is low in one or
more of the four active road tires. In addi
-
tion, the instrument cluster will display a
"Tire Low" message and a graphic showing
the pressure values of each tire with the low
tire pressure values highlighted or in a
different color.
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warning
Should this occur, you should stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tires with low pres -
sure (those highlighted or in a different color
in the instrument cluster display graphic) to
the vehicle’s recommended cold placard
pressure value. Once the system receives the
updated tire pressures, the system will auto -
matically update, the pressure values in the
graphic display in the instrument cluster will stop being highlighted or return to their orig
-
inal color, and the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System Warning Light will turn off.
NOTE:
When filling warm tires, the tire pressure
may need to be increased up to an additional
4 psi (28 kPa) above the recommended cold
placard pressure in order to turn the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light
off.
The vehicle may need to be driven for up to
10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in
order for the TPMS to receive this informa -
tion.
Service TPMS Warning
When a system fault is detected, the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light
will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on solid. The system fault will also
sound a chime. In addition, the instrument
cluster will display a "SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM" message for a minimum of five
seconds and then display dashes (- -) in
place of the pressure value to indicate which
sensor is not being received.
If the ignition key is cycled, this sequence
will repeat, providing the system fault still
2020_JEEP_M6_UG_UK.book Page 88

89
exists. If the system fault no longer exists,
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning
Light will no longer flash, and the “SERVICE
TPM SYSTEM” message will no longer
display, and a pressure value will display in
place of the dashes. A system fault can occur
due to any of the following:
Jamming due to electronic devices or
driving next to facilities emitting the same
radio frequencies as the TPMS sensors.
Installing some form of aftermarket
window tinting that affects radio wave
signals.
Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or
wheel housings.
Using tire chains on the vehicle.
Using wheels/tires not equipped with
TPMS sensors.
Vehicles With Compact Spare or Non-Matching
Full Size Spare
1. The compact spare tire or non-matching full size does not have a Tire Pressure
Monitoring sensor. Therefore, the TPMS
will not monitor the pressure in the
compact or non-matching full size spare
tire. 2. If you install the compact or
non-matching full size spare tire in place
of a road tire that has a pressure below
the low-pressure warning limit, upon the
next ignition key cycle, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System Warning Light will
remain on and a chime will sound. In
addition, the graphic in the instrument
cluster will still display a different color
or highlighted pressure value.
3. After driving the vehicle for up to 10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h),
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Warning Light will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on solid. In
addition, the instrument cluster will
display a “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM”
message for five seconds and then
display dashes (- -) in place of the pres -
sure value.
4. For each subsequent ignition key cycle, a chime will sound, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System Warning Light will
flash on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on solid, and the instrument
cluster will display a “SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM” message for five seconds and
then display dashes (- -) in place of the
pressure value. 5. Once you repair or replace the original
road tire and reinstall it on the vehicle in
place of the compact spare, the TPMS
will update automatically. In addition,
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Warning Light will turn off and the
graphic in the instrument cluster will
display a new pressure value instead of
dashes (- -), as long as no tire pressure is
below the low-pressure warning limit in
any of the four active road tires. The
vehicle may need to be driven for up to
10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in
order for the TPMS to receive this infor -
mation.
TPMS Deactivation — If Equipped
The TPMS can be deactivated if replacing all
four wheel and tire assemblies (road tires)
with wheel and tire assemblies that do not
have TPMS Sensors, such as when installing
winter wheel and tire assemblies on your
vehicle.
To deactivate the TPMS, first replace all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with
tires not equipped with Tire Pressure Moni -
toring (TPM) sensors. Then, drive the vehicle
for 10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS will chime, the Tire Pressure
2020_JEEP_M6_UG_UK.book Page 89

SAFETY
90
Monitoring System Warning Light will flash
on and off for 75 seconds and then remain
on. The instrument cluster will display the
“SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message and then
display dashes (--) in place of the pressure
values.
Beginning with the next ignition cycle, the
TPMS will no longer chime or display the
“SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message in the
instrument cluster but dashes (--) will
remain in place of the pressure values.
To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with
tires equipped with TPM sensors. Then, drive
the vehicle for up to 10 minutes above
15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS will chime,
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning
Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and
then turn off. The instrument cluster will
display the “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM”
message and then display pressure values in
place of the dashes. On the next ignition
cycle the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message
will no longer be displayed as long as no
system fault exists.OCCUPANT RESTRAINT
SYSTEMS
Some of the most important safety features
in your vehicle are the restraint systems:
Occupant Restraint Systems Features
Seat Belt Systems
Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS)
Air Bags
Child Restraints
Some of the safety features described in this
section may be standard equipment on some
models, or may be optional equipment on
others. If you are not sure, ask an authorized
dealer.
Important Safety Precautions
Please pay close attention to the information
in this section. It tells you how to use your
restraint system properly, to keep you and
your passengers as safe as possible. Here are some simple steps you can take to
minimize the risk of harm from a deploying
air bag:
1. Children 12 years old and under should
always ride buckled up in the rear seat of
a vehicle with a rear seat.

SAFETY
98
Seat Belt Pretensioner
The front and second row outboard seat belt
systems are equipped with pretensioning
devices that are designed to remove slack
from the seat belt in the event of a collision.
These devices may improve the performance
of the seat belt by removing slack from the
seat belt early in a collision. Pretensioners
work for all size occupants, including those
in child restraints.
NOTE:
These devices are not a substitute for proper
seat belt placement by the occupant. The
seat belt still must be worn snugly and posi-
tioned properly.
The pretensioners are triggered by the Occu -
pant Restraint Controller (ORC). Like the air
bags, the pretensioners are single use items.
A deployed pretensioner or a deployed air
bag must be replaced immediately.
Energy Management Feature — If Equipped
The front outboard seat belt system is
equipped and the second row outboard seat
belt system may be equipped with an Energy
Management feature that may help further
reduce the risk of injury in the event of a collision. The seat belt system has a retractor
assembly that is designed to release webbing
in a controlled manner.
Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS)
Some of the safety features described in this
section may be standard equipment on some
models, or may be optional equipment on
others. If you are not sure, ask an authorized
dealer.
The air bag system must be ready to protect
you in a collision. The Occupant Restraint
Controller (ORC) monitors the internal
circuits and interconnecting wiring associ
-
ated with the electrical Air Bag System
Components. Your vehicle may be equipped
with the following Air Bag System Compo -
nents:
Air Bag System Components
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
Air Bag Warning Light
Steering Wheel and Column
Instrument Panel
Knee Impact Bolsters
Driver and Front Passenger Air Bags
Seat Belt Buckle Switch
Supplemental Side Air Bags
Front and Side Impact Sensors
Seat Belt Pretensioners
Seat Track Position Sensors
Air Bag Warning Light
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
monitors the readiness of the electronic
parts of the air bag system whenever the igni -
tion switch is in the START or ON/RUN posi -
tion. If the ignition switch is in the OFF
position or in the ACC position, the air bag
system is not on and the air bags will not
inflate.
The ORC contains a backup power supply
system that may deploy the air bag system
even if the battery loses power or it becomes
disconnected prior to deployment.
The ORC turns on the Air Bag Warning Light
in the instrument panel for approximately
four to eight seconds for a self-check when
the ignition switch is first in the ON/RUN
position. After the self-check, the Air Bag
Warning Light will turn off. If the ORC
detects a malfunction in any part of the
2020_JEEP_M6_UG_UK.book Page 98

99
system, it turns on the Air Bag Warning
Light, either momentarily or continuously. A
single chime will sound to alert you if the
light comes on again after initial startup.
The ORC also includes diagnostics that will
illuminate the instrument panel Air Bag
Warning Light if a malfunction is detected
that could affect the air bag system. The
diagnostics also record the nature of the
malfunction. While the air bag system is
designed to be maintenance free, if any of
the following occurs, have an authorized
dealer service the air bag system immedi-
ately.
The Air Bag Warning Light does not come
on during the four to eight seconds when
the ignition switch is first in the ON/RUN
position.
The Air Bag Warning Light remains on
after the four to eight-second interval.
The Air Bag Warning Light comes on inter -
mittently or remains on while driving.
NOTE:
If the speedometer, tachometer, or any
engine related gauges are not working, the
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) may
also be disabled. In this condition the air bags may not be ready to inflate for your
protection. Have an authorized dealer service
the air bag system immediately.
Redundant Air Bag Warning Light
If a fault with the Air Bag Warning Light
is detected, which could affect the Supple -
mental Restraint System (SRS), the Redun -
dant Air Bag Warning Light will illuminate on
the instrument panel. The Redundant Air
Bag Warning Light will stay on until the fault
is cleared. In addition, a single chime will
sound to alert you that the Redundant Air
Bag Warning Light has come on and a fault
has been detected. If the Redundant Air Bag
Warning Light comes on intermittently or
remains on while driving have an authorized
dealer service the vehicle immediately. For additional information regarding the
Redundant Air Bag Warning Light refer to
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel”
section of this manual.
Front Air Bags
This vehicle has front air bags and lap/
shoulder belts for both the driver and front
passenger. The front air bags are a supple
-
ment to the seat belt restraint systems. The
driver front air bag is mounted in the center
of the steering wheel. The passenger front air
bag is mounted in the instrument panel,
above the glove compartment. The words
“SRS AIRBAG” or “AIRBAG” are embossed
on the air bag covers.
Front Air Bag/Knee Bolster Locations
WARNING!
Ignoring the Air Bag Warning Light in your
instrument panel could mean you won’t
have the air bag system to protect you in a
