Activation/deactivation
The Forward Collision Warning Plus
system can be deactivated (and then
reactivated) via theUconnect™
system. The system can also
be deactivated bringing the ignition
device to MAR.
IMPORTANT The system status can be
changed with vehicle at a standstill
only.

In certain driving conditions, such as,
for example:
❒driving close to a bend (see fig. 59);
❒vehicles with small dimensions
and/or not aligned in the driving lane
(see fig. 60);
❒lane change by other vehicles (see
fig. 61);
❒vehicle driving in a transverse way
(see fig. 62);system intervention might be

ADJUSTING THE SEAT
BELT HEIGHT
77) 78)Five different adjustments in height are
possible.
To carry out height adjustment, from
the top to the bottom, press button A
(located on both sides of handle B), and
slide the handle downwards.
The height adjuster moves upwards
even without pressing the two buttons
A.
Always adjust the height of the seat
belts to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the event of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.
WARNING
75)Do not press button C fig. 63while
travelling.
76)Remember that, in the event of a
violent collision, back-seat passengers not
wearing seat belts represent a serious
danger to the front-seat passengers as well
as to themselves.
77)The height of the seat belts must be
adjusted with the vehicle stationary.
78)After the adjustment, always check that
the cursor to which the ring is fastened is
locked in one of the preset positions. To do
this, with button A fig. 65released, exert
a further pressure to allow the locking
device to click if the grip has not
been released in one of the possible
positions.
SBR (Seat Belt
Reminder) SYSTEM
The SBR system warns the passengers
of the front and rear (where provided)
seats if their seat belt is not fastened.
The system signals unfastened seat
belts with visual warnings (warning
lights on in the instrument panel and
icons on the display) and an acoustic
signal (see the following paragraphs).
NOTE To deactivate the acoustic
warning permanently go to a Jeep
Dealership. The acoustic warning can
be reactivated at any time through
the display Menu (see the "Display"
paragraph in the “Knowing the
instrument panel” chapter).
Operation of front seat belt
warning light
When the ignition device is turned to
MAR, warning light
(see fig. 66) lights
up for a few seconds, regardless of
the status of the front belts.
With vehicle at a standstill, if the driver
side seat belt or the passenger side
seat belt (with occupant seated) is
unfastened, the warning light stays on
constantly.65J0A0151C
77

As soon as a speed threshold of 8
km/h is maintained for more than 10
continuous seconds (or 50
discontinuous seconds), with driver
side seat belt or the passenger side
seat belt (with occupant seated)
unfastened, an acoustic signal is
activated simultaneously with warning
light
flashing for about 105 seconds.
When this cycle of warnings is activated
it will stay on for its entire length
(regardless of the vehicle speed) or until
the seat belts are fastened again.
When the reverse is engaged, during
the cycle of warnings, the acoustic
signal is deactivated and the
warning
light turns on constantly. The cycle of
warnings will be reactivated as soon as
speed exceeds 8 km/h again.
Operation of rear seat belt
icons
The icons are shown on the display (fig.
67 versions with multifunction display
or fig. 68 versions with reconfigurable
multifunction display) after a few
seconds have elapsed since when the
ignition device is turned to MAR.
The icons turn off at least 30 seconds
after the doors have been closed or
after a change in the seat belt fastening
status.
The icons shown on the display
indicate:
❒A: rear left seat belt;
❒B: rear central seat belt;
❒C: rear right seat belt.
NOTE On versions equipped with
multifunction display, if a seat belt is
unfastened, icon
lights up.The icons are displayed according to
the corresponding seat belts in the rear
seats, and stay on for about 30
seconds from the last seat belt status
change:
❒if the seat belt is fastenedthe
corresponding icon will be green;
❒if the seat belt is unfastenedthe
corresponding icon will be red.

SAFETY

If the rear seat belt is unfastened, an
acoustic warning (3 "beeps") will be
activated along with the relevant icon
lighting up in the display.
Furthermore the icons will light up again
for 90 seconds each time one of the
rear doors is closed.
The icon will turn green after the
corresponding seat has been fastened.
The rear seat icons will go out,
regardless of the state of the belt (red
icon or green icon), approximately
30 seconds after the last signal.
IMPORTANT
As far as the rear seats are concerned,
the SBR system will only indicate
whether the seat belts are unfastened
(red icon) or fastened (green icon),
not the presence of any passengers.
The warning lights/icons are all off if all
seat belts (front and rear) are fastened
when the ignition device is at MAR.
For the rear seats, the icons will
activate after a few seconds after the
ignition device has been turned to
MAR, regardless of the status of the
seat belts (even if the seat belts are all
fastened).
All the warning lights/icons will come on
when at least one belt changes from
fastened to unfastened status or vice
versa.
PRETENSIONERS
79) 80) 81) 82)33)
The vehicle is equipped with front seat
belt pretensioners, which draw back
the seat belts by several centimetres in
the event of a strong frontal impact.
This guarantees the perfect adherence
of the seat belts to the occupant's
bodies before the retention action
begins.
It is evident that the pretensioners have
been activated when the belt withdraws
toward the retractor.
This vehicle is also equipped with a
second pretensioner (fitted in the kick
plate area). Its activation is signalled by
the shortening of the metal cable.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the
pretensioner which is not harmful and
does not indicate any fire hazard.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication: any
changes to its original conditions will
invalidate its efficiency.
If, due to unusual natural events (floods,
sea storms, etc.), the device has been
affected by water and/or mud, contact
a Jeep Dealership to have it replaced.IMPORTANT To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action of
the pretensioner, wear the seat belt
tight to the torso and pelvis.
LOAD LIMITERS
To increase safety in the event of an
accident, the front seat belt retractors
contain a load limiter which controls the
force acting on the chest and
shoulders during the belt restraining
action in the event of a head-on
collision.
GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USING THE SEAT BELTS
Respect and ensure that all the other
occupants of the vehicle comply with
the local laws in force regarding the use
of seat belts. Always fasten the seat
belts before setting off.
Seat belts must also be worn by
pregnant women: the risk of injury in
the event of an accident is reduced for
them and the unborn child if they are
wearing a seat belt.
