while in the unlocked position. Once the seat
is locked in, the red indicator will no longer
be visible.
Driver Memory Seat — If Equipped
This feature allows the driver to store up to
two different memory profiles, for easy recall
through a memory switch. Each memory
profile contains desired position settings for
the driver seat and a set of desired radio
station presets.
The memory switch is located on the driver's
side door panel. The switch contains three
buttons, the set (S) button to activate the
memory save function, and memory profile
buttons (1) and (2). The memory buttons
allow the driver to recall either of the two
pre-programmed memory profiles by pushing
the appropriate number button on the
switch.
WARNING!
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a
cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle.
In a collision, people riding in these
areas are more likely to be seriously
injured or killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any area of
your vehicle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a
seat and using a seat belt properly.
1 — Seatback Release Levers
WARNING!
Be certain that the seatback is securely
locked into position. If the seatback is not
securely locked into position the seat will
not provide the proper stability for child
seats and/or passengers. An improperly
latched seat could cause serious injury.

Before closing the liftgate, make sure to
be in possession of the key because the
liftgate may be locked.
Use the interior door lock/unlock button
on the door panel or the key fob to lock
and unlock the liftgate. The manual door
locks on the doors and the exterior door
lock cylinder will not lock and unlock the
liftgate.
Lock The Vehicle
NOTE:
The liftgate will not power open or close if
the gear selector is in gear or the vehicle
speed is above 0 mph (0 km/h).
If anything obstructs the power liftgate
while it is closing or opening, the liftgate
will automatically reverse to the closed or
open position, provided it meets sufficient
resistance.
There are pinch sensors attached to the
side of the liftgate opening. Light pressure
anywhere along these strips will cause the
liftgate to return to the open position.
If the power liftgate encounters multiple
obstructions within the same cycle, the
system will automatically stop. If this
occurs, the liftgate must be opened or
closed manually.
The power liftgate will not operate in
temperatures below −22°F (−30°C) or
temperatures above 150°F (65°C). Be
sure to remove any buildup of snow or ice
from the liftgate before pushing any of the
power liftgate switches.
If the liftgate is left open for an extended
period of time, the liftgate may need to be
closed manually to reset power liftgate
functionality.
Gas props support the liftgate in the open
position. However, because the gas pres-
sure drops with temperature, it may be
necessary to assist the props when
opening the liftgate in cold weather.
Before driving off, check the instrument
cluster for a liftgate or door open message
or warning indicator. Failure to do this
could result in unintentionally leaving the
liftgate open while driving.
If your liftgate is power closing and you
put the vehicle in gear, the liftgate will
continue to power close. However, vehicle
movement may result in a detection of an
obstruction.
If the electronic liftgate release handle is
pushed while the power liftgate is
opening, the liftgate motor will disengage
to allow manual operation.
If the electronic liftgate release handle is
pushed while the power liftgate is closing,
the liftgate will reverse to the full open
position.
WARNING!
During power operation, personal injury or
cargo damage may occur. Ensure the
liftgate travel path is clear. Make sure the
liftgate is closed and latched before
driving away.
WARNING!
Driving with the liftgate open can allow
poisonous exhaust gases into your
vehicle. You and your passengers could
be injured by these fumes. Keep the lift -
gate closed when you are operating the
vehicle.

NOTE:
The rear cargo area power outlet can be
switched from “ignition” only to constant
“battery” powered all the time. See an
authorized dealer for details.
Power Inverter — If Equipped
Power Inverter Location
There is a 230 Volt inverter outlet located on
the back of the center console to convert DC current to AC current. This outlet can power
cellular phones, electronics and other low
power devices requiring power. Certain
high-end game consoles will exceed this
power limit, as will most power tools.
To turn on the power inverter outlet, simply
plug in the device. The outlet automatically
turns off when the device is unplugged.
The power inverter is designed with built-in
overload protection. If the power rating is
exceeded, the power inverter will automati
-
cally shut down. Once the electrical device
has been removed from the outlet the
inverter should automatically reset. To avoid
overloading the circuit, check the power
ratings on electrical devices prior to using
the inverter.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Only devices designed for use in this
type of outlet should be inserted into any
12 Volt outlet.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use and while
driving the vehicle.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause
an electric shock and failure.
CAUTION!
Many accessories that can be plugged in
draw power from the vehicle's battery,
even when not in use (i.e., cellular
phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in
long enough, the vehicle's battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade battery
life and/or prevent the engine from
starting.
Accessories that draw higher power (i.e.,
coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.)
will degrade the battery even more
quickly. Only use these intermittently
and with greater caution.
After the use of high power draw acces-
sories, or long periods of the vehicle not
being started (with accessories still
plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
sufficient length of time to allow the
generator to recharge the vehicle's
battery.
CAUTION! (Continued)
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Do not insert any objects into the recep -
tacles.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause
an electric shock and failure.

Oil Change Indicator System — If
Equipped
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil
change indicator system. The “Oil Change
Due” message will display in the instrument
cluster display for five seconds after a single
chime has sounded, to indicate the next
scheduled oil change interval. The engine oil
change indicator system is duty cycle based,
which means the engine oil change interval
may fluctuate, dependent upon your
personal driving style.
Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) — If Equipped
The Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) system is
enabled on vehicles with a manual transmis -sion, or when a vehicle with an automatic
transmission is in manual shift mode. The
GSI provides the driver with a visual indica
-
tion when the recommended gear shift point
has been reached. This indication notifies
the driver that changing gear will allow a
reduction in fuel consumption. When the up
shift indicator is shown on the instrument
cluster display, the GSI is advising the driver
to engage a higher gear. When the down shift
indicator is shown on the display, the GSI is
advising the driver to engage a lower gear.
The GSI remains illuminated until the driver
changes gear, or the driving conditions
return to a situation where changing gear is
not required to improve fuel consumption.
Instrument Cluster Display Menu Items
NOTE:
The instrument cluster display menu items
display in the center of the instrument
cluster. Menu items may vary depending on
your vehicle features.
Refer to “Instrument Cluster Display” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” in
the Owner’s Manual for further information.

time, both the visual and audible alerts will
be issued. In addition to the audible alert the
radio (if on) will also be muted.
NOTE:
Whenever an audible alert is requested by
the BSM system, the radio is also muted.
When the system is in RCP, the system shall
respond with both visual and audible alerts
when a detected object is present. Whenever
an audible alert is requested, the radio
volume is reduced. Turn/hazard signal status
is ignored; the RCP state always requests the
chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off there will
be no visual or audible alerts from either the
BSM or RCP systems.
NOTE:
The BSM system will store the current oper-
ating mode when the vehicle is shut off.
Each time the vehicle is started the previ -
ously stored mode will be recalled and used.
Blocked Sensor
If the system detects degraded performance
due to contamination or foreign objects, a
message will warn you of a blocked sensor and the warning indicators in side view
mirrors will be illuminated. The warning indi
-
cators will remain illuminated until blockage
clearing conditions are met. First clear the
fascia area around the sensors of the
blockage. After removing the blockage, reset
the system by placing the ignition from ON to
OFF and then back ON.
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) With
Mitigation — If Equipped
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) With
Mitigation Operation
The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system
with mitigation provides the driver with
audible warnings, visual warnings (within the
instrument cluster display), and may apply a
brake jerk to warn the driver when it detects
a potential frontal collision. The warnings
and limited braking are intended to provide
the driver with enough time to react, avoid or
mitigate the potential collision.
NOTE:
FCW monitors the information from the
forward looking sensors as well as the Elec -
tronic Brake Controller (EBC), to calculate
the probability of a forward collision. When
the system determines that a forward colli -sion is probable, the driver will be provided
with audible and visual warnings and may
provide a brake jerk warning.
If the driver does not take action based upon
these progressive warnings, then the system
will provide a limited level of active braking
to help slow the vehicle and mitigate the
potential forward collision. If the driver
reacts to the warnings by braking and the
system determines that the driver intends to
avoid the collision by braking but has not
applied sufficient brake force, the system
will compensate and provide additional
brake force as required.
If a Forward Collision Warning with Mitiga
-
tion event begins at a speed below 26 mph
(42 km/h), the system may provide the
maximum braking possible to mitigate the
potential forward collision. If the Forward
Collision Warning with Mitigation event stops
the vehicle completely, the system will hold
the vehicle at standstill for two seconds and
then release the brakes.
2020_JEEP_M6_UG_UK.book Page 84

85
FCW Message
When the system determines a collision with
the vehicle in front of you is no longer prob -
able, the warning message will be deacti -
vated.
NOTE:
The minimum speed for FCW activation is
1 mph (2 km/h).

The FCW alerts may be triggered on objects
other than vehicles, such as guard rails or
sign posts, based on the course prediction.
This is expected and is a part of normal
FCW activation and functionality.
It is unsafe to test the FCW system. To
prevent such misuse of the system, after
four Active Braking events within a key
cycle, the Active Braking portion of FCW
will be deactivated until the next key cycle.

The FCW system is intended for on-road
use only. If the vehicle is taken off-road,
the FCW system should be deactivated to
prevent unnecessary warnings to the
surroundings.
FCW Settings
The forward collision menu setting is located
in the Uconnect settings.
NOTE:
The default status of FCW is “Full On,” this
allows the system to provide a warning and
autonomous braking in the event of a poten -
tial frontal collision.
Changing the FCW status to “Warning Only”
prevents the system from providing autono -
mous braking, or additional brake support if
the driver is not braking adequately in the
event of a potential frontal collision. Changing the FCW status to off deactivates
the system, so no warning or autonomous
braking will be available in case of a possible
collision
NOTE:
The FCW system state is defaulted to "Full
On" from one ignition cycle to the next. If the
system is turned off, it will reset to "Full On"
when the vehicle is restarted.
Changing FCW Sensitivity And Operating
Status
The FCW Sensitivity And Operation Settings
are programmable through the Uconnect
System. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in
“Multimedia” for further information.
The default status of FCW is the “Medium”
setting and the FCW is in the “Full On”
setting. This allows the system to warn the
driver of a possible collision with the vehicle
in front using audible/visual warnings and it
applies autonomous braking.
Changing the FCW status to the “Far” setting
allows the system to warn the driver of a
possible collision with the vehicle in front
using audible/visual warning when the latter
is at a farther distance than "Medium"
setting. This provides the most reaction time
to avoid a possible collision.
WARNING!

Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not
intended to avoid a collision on its own, nor
can FCW detect every type of potential
collision. The driver has the responsibility to
avoid a collision by controlling the vehicle via
braking and steering. Failure to follow this
warning could lead to serious injury or death.

2020_JEEP_M6_UG_UK.book Page 85

SAFETY
86
Changing the FCW status to the “Near”
setting, allows the system to warn the driver
of a possible collision with the vehicle in
front when the distance between the vehicle
in the front is much closer. This setting
provides less reaction time than the “Far”
and “Medium” settings, which allows for a
more dynamic driving experience.
NOTE:
The system will NOT retain the last setting
selected by the driver after ignition shut
down. The system will reset to Medium
sensitivity with FCW "Full On" setting
when the vehicle is restarted.
FCW may not react to irrelevant objects
such as overhead objects, ground reflec-
tions, objects not in the path of the
vehicle, stationary objects that are far
away, oncoming traffic, or leading vehicles
with the same or higher rate of speed.
If FCW is disabled, unavailable screens
will be displayed.
FCW Limited Warning
If the instrument cluster display reads “ACC/
FCW Limited Functionality” or “ACC/FCW
Limited Functionality Clean Front Wind-
shield” momentarily, there may be a condi -tion that limits FCW functionality. Although
the vehicle is still drivable under normal
conditions, the active braking may not be
fully available. Once the condition that
limited the system performance is no longer
present, the system will return to its full
performance state. If the problem persists,
see an authorized dealer.
Service FCW Warning
If the system turns off, and the instrument
cluster display reads “FCW Unavailable
Service Required”, this indicates there is an
internal system fault. Although the vehicle is
still drivable under normal conditions, have
the system checked by an authorized dealer.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
will warn the driver of a low tire pressure
based on the vehicle recommended cold
placard pressure.
The tire pressure will vary with temperature
by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F
(6.5°C). This means that when the outside
temperature decreases, the tire pressure will
decrease. Tire pressure should always be set
based on cold inflation tire pressure. This is
defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle
has not been driven for at least three hours,
or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after a
three hour period. The cold tire inflation
pressure must not exceed the maximum
inflation pressure molded into the tire side
-
wall. Refer to “Tires” in “Servicing And
Maintenance” for information on how to
properly inflate the vehicle’s tires. The tire
pressure will also increase as the vehicle is
driven. This is normal and there should be no
adjustment for this increased pressure.
The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire
pressure if the tire pressure falls below the
low-pressure warning limit for any reason,
including low temperature effects and
natural pressure loss through the tire. The
TPMS will continue to warn the driver of low
tire pressure as long as the condition exists,
and will not turn off until the tire pressure is
at or above the recommended cold placard
pressure.
NOTE:
Once the low tire pressure warning (TPMS
Warning Light) illuminates, you must
increase the tire pressure to the recom -
mended cold placard pressure in order for
the TPMS Warning Light to turn off.

Maintaining Your Air Bag System Event Data Recorder (EDR)
This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data
Recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an
EDR is to record, in certain crash or near
crash-like situations, such as an air bag
deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data
that will assist in understanding how a
vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is
designed to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a short
period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record
such data as:
How various systems in your vehicle were
operating;
Whether or not the driver and passenger
safety belts were buckled/fastened;
11. Turn ignition STOP/OFF/LOCK.
12. Turn ignition MAR/ACC/ON/RUN. (Entire sequence needs to be
