ESP JEEP LIBERTY 2009 KK / 2.G Owner's Manual

20. Electronic Stability Program (ESP) / Brake Assist
System (BAS) Indicator Light – If EquippedThe malfunction indicator for the Electronic
Stability Program (ESP) is combined with the
Brake Assist System (BAS). The yellow “ESP/
BAS Warning Light” in the instrument cluster
comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the ON
position. It should go out with the engine running. If the
“ESP/BAS Warning Light” comes on continuously with
the engine running, a malfunction has been detected in
either the ESP or the BAS system, or both. If this light
remains on after the several ignition cycles, and the
vehicle has been driven several miles/kilometers at
speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), see an authorized
dealer as soon as possible to have the problem diagnosed
and corrected.
NOTE: The ESP Control System will make buzzing or
clicking sounds when it is active. This is normal; the sound will stop when the ESP becomes inactive following
a maneuver that caused the ESP activation.
21. SERV (Service) 4WD Indicator Light — If Equipped
The “SERV 4WD Indicator Light” will turn on
when the ignition key is turned to the ON
position and it will stay on for two seconds. If
the light stays on or turns on during driving, it
means that the 4WD system is not functioning properly
and that service is required.
22. Engine Temperature Warning Light This light warns of an overheated engine condi-
tion. As temperatures rise and the gauge ap-
proaches H, this indicator will illuminate and a
single chime will sound after reaching a set threshold.
Further overheating will cause the temperature gauge to
pass H, the indicator will continuously flash and a
continuous chime will occur until the engine is allowed
to cool.

28. Cruise Indicator — If EquippedThis indicator lights when the electronic speed
control system is turned on.
29. Shift Lever Indicator
This display indicator shows automatic transmission
shift lever selection.
30. Seat Belt Reminder Light This light will turn on for several seconds after the
ignition is turned ON as a reminder to “buckle
up.” This light will remain on as long as the seat
belt remains unbuckled.
31. Brake Warning Light This light monitors various brake functions,
including brake fluid level and parking brake
application. If the brake light turns on, it may
indicate that the parking brake is applied, that
the brake fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with
the anti-lock brake system reservoir. If the light remains on when the parking brake has been
disengaged, and the fluid level is at the full mark on the
master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake
hydraulic system malfunction or that a problem with the
Brake Booster has been detected by the Anti-Lock Brake
System (ABS) / Electronic Stability Program (ESP) sys-
tem. In this case, the light will remain on until the
condition has been corrected. If the problem is related to
the brake booster, the ABS pump will run when applying
the brake and a brake pedal pulsation may be felt during
each stop.
The dual brake system provides a reserve braking capac-
ity in the event of a failure to a portion of the hydraulic
system. A leak in either half of the dual brake system is
indicated by the Brake Warning Light, which will turn on
when the brake fluid level in the master cylinder has
dropped below a specified level.
The light will remain on until the cause is corrected.
