reciprocally independent manner.
“Trip A”allows the following values to
be displayed: "Distance travelled A",
"Average consumption A", "Journey
time (driving time) A".
“Trip B”allows the following values to
be displayed: "Distance travelled B",
"Average consumption B", "Journey
time (driving time) B". The “Trip B”
function may be excluded.
Both memories can be reset: (reset -

To reset the values of "Trip A" and "Trip
B" press and hold theOKbutton on
the steering wheel controls.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
IMPORTANT The warning light switches on in the instrument panel together with a dedicated message and/or acoustic signal
when applicable. These indications are indicative and precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or
alternative to the information contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. Always
refer to the information in this chapter in the event of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT Failure indications displayed are divided into two categories: serious and less serious failures. Serious faults are
indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious faults are indicated by a warning "cycle" with a shorter
duration. The display cycle of both categories can be interrupted. The instrument panel warning light will stay on until the cause
of the failure is eliminated.
WARNING LIGHTS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL
Red warning lights
Warning light What it means
INSUFFICIENT BRAKE FLUID / ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE ON
Low brake fluid level
The warning light switches on when the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level, possibly
due to a leak in the circuit. Restore the brake fluid level, then check that the warning light has switched off.
If the warning light stays on, contact a Jeep Dealership.
Electric parking brake on
The warning light switches on when the electric parking brake is engaged. Release the electric parking
brake, then check that the warning light has switched off. If the warning light stays on, contact a Jeep
Dealership.

Warning light What it means
EBD FAILURE
The simultaneous switching on of the
(red) and(amber) warning lights with the engine on
indicates either a fault of the EBD system or that the system is not available. In this case, the rear wheels
may suddenly lock and the vehicle may swerve when braking sharply. The display shows the dedicated
message.
Drive very carefully to the nearest Jeep Dealership to have the system inspected immediately.
POWER STEERING FAILURE
If the warning light remains on, you could not have steering assistance and the effort required to operate
the steering wheel could be increased; steering is, however, possible.

reservoir is not below the MIN mark. If it is, wait for the engine to cool down, then slowly and carefully open
the cap, top up with coolant and check that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir.
Also check visually for any fluid leaks. If, when restarting, the warning light switches on (or the icon is
displayed) again, contact a Jeep Dealership.
If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions(e.g. in high-performance driving): slow down and,
if the warning light stays on, stop the vehicle. Wait for 2 or 3 minutes with the engine running and slightly
