compromised by the presence of dust,
condensation, dirt or ice on the
windscreen, by traffic conditions (e.g.
vehicles that are driving not aligned with
yours, vehicle driving in a transverse or
opposite way on the same lane, bend with
a small radius of curvature), by road
surface conditions and by driving
conditions (e.g. off-road driving). Make sure

specific detergents and clean cloths to
avoid scratching the windscreen. The
camera operation may also be limited or
absent in some driving, traffic and road
surface conditions.
46)Projecting loads on the roof of the
vehicle may interfere with the correct
operation of the camera. Before starting

Installing the ball head tow
bar
Remove the plug from the mounting
pipe.
The ball head tow bar is usually in the
released position when taken out from
the luggage compartment. This can
be observed by the knob spaced from
the tow bar, corresponding to a slot
of approximately 5 mm (see fig. 101)
and by the red mark on the knob
directed to the green mark on the tow
bar. The tow bar can be installed only
when in these conditions.If the locking mechanism of the tow bar
is disengaged before the installation,
or at any other time, and is in the
locked position, it must be pre-loaded.
The locked position can be identified
by the green mark of the knob
coinciding with the green mark of the
tow bar and by the knob in the stop
position on the tow bar, namely without
slot (see figure).
The locking mechanism is pre-loaded
as follows:
❒with key inserted and lock open,
extract the knob following the direction
of arrow A fig. 101;
❒then follow the direction of arrow B,
until it stops.
The release ball is pre-loaded and the
locking mechanism remains in the
pre-loading position even when the
knob is released.
The release lever is engaged and the
locking mechanism remains in the
pre-loading position even when the
knob is released.
The tow bar must be inserted in the
housing pipe with the coupling pin for
the installation. Insert from the bottom
and push upwards: the mechanism
locks automatically.
IMPORTANT To prevent injury to limbs,
keep hands away from the knob when
locking.Close the lock and always remove the
key. The key cannot be removed when
the lock is released. Then fit the
protection cap on the lock.
Removing the tow bar
Proceed as follows:
❒remove the protection cap from the
lock and press it on the key grip. Open
the lock with the key;
❒grip the tow bar firmly, remove the
knob following the direction of arrow A
fig. 101, then rotate in the direction
of arrow B until it stops, in order to
release it in unlocked position. Then
remove the tow bar from the housing
pipe. The knob can then be released (it
will automatically stop in released
position);
❒arrange the tow bar in the luggage
compartment so that it cannot be
dirtied and/or damaged by other
transported objects;
❒finally, insert the dedicated plug in the
mounting pipe.
Important
Apply the plate in a highly visible point
of the vehicle, near the mounting pipe
or inside the luggage compartment.

To ensure correct operation of the
system, periodically remove all deposits
of dirt which may have accumulated
on the ball head bar and from the
mounting pipe. The lock must only be
treated with graphite.
Periodically lubricate the joints, the
sliding surfaces and the balls with
grease without resin or oil. Lubrication
is also a further corrosion protection.
if the vehicle is washed with high-
pressure jets, the ball head bar must be
removed and the dedicated plug fitted.
The ball head bar must never be
treated with high-pressure jets.
Two keys are supplied together with the
removable ball tow bar. Note down
the four-digit key number and keep it in
a safe place. This number is to be
used for ordering any duplicate keys
that may be required.
IMPORTANT To install a tow hook
contact a Jeep Dealership.
WARNING
128)The ABS with which the vehicle is
equipped will not control the braking
system of the trailer. Particular caution is
therefore required on slippery surfaces.
129)Never modify the braking system of
the vehicle to control the trailer brake. The
trailer braking system must be fully
independent of the vehicle’s hydraulic
system.

STARTING AND DRIVING
Page 139 of 212

❒before raising the vehicle, loosen –
without removing – the bolts on the
wheel with the flat tyre using key A fig.
135. With the wheel still resting on
the ground, a single anticlockwise
rotation of the bolts will be enough;
❒position the jack under the vehicle,
near the wheel to be changed;
❒fit key D fig. 136 on hexagon A of
jack B and turn it clockwise until the
jack’s bracket is inserted firmly in the
under-door side member lifting area,
taking care to keep the staff aligned
with the notch indicated by symbol
on the under-door trim;
❒lift the vehicle until the wheel is a few
centimetres off the ground;
❒remove the bolts and the wheel (for
versions with hub cap, remove it after
loosening the 4 bolts that fix it and,
finally, undo the last bolt and remove
the wheel);❒remove the key from the jack and
insert the locating pin in the hub cap (in
the case of alloy wheels)to facilitate
fitting of the spare wheel;
❒make sure the contact surfaces
between spare wheel and hub
are clean so that the fixing bolts will not
become loose subsequently;
❒fit the spare wheel;
❒fit and do up the bolts, without
tightening them;
❒if used, remove the alignment pin;
❒operate the jack and completely
lower the vehicle;
❒take the spare wheel, jack and wheel
bolt removal key (see fig. 133);
❒if the vehicle has aluminium rims,
where the hub cap covers the bolts,
use the key with great care to remove
the hub cap before raising the vehicle;❒tighten the bolts, alternating from one
bolt to the one opposite, according to
the numerical sequence illustrated in
fig. 137. In the case of any doubts
regarding the bolt tightening torque,
contact a Jeep Dealership;
❒reposition the jack, the tools, the
chock and the flat tyre inside the
luggage compartment, ensuring that
they are locked correctly.
IMPORTANT
❒Should it be absolutely necessary to
operate on the road surface or near
it, pay the utmost attention to vehicles
in transit.
❒Pay particular attention when using
the key to remove the bolts: it may have
sharp edges.
