CHANGING A WHEEL
141) 142) 143) 144) 145) 146) 147) 148)
CHANGING PROCEDURE
Proceed as follows:
❒stop the vehicle in a position that is
not dangerous for oncoming traffic
where you can change the wheel safely,
as far as possible from the side of the
road. The ground should be flat if
possible, and sufficiently firm;
❒engage the hazard warning lights and
the electric parking brake;
❒engage first gear or reverse or, for
versions with automatic transmission,
move the lever to position P (Park);
❒stop the engine and put on the
reflective safety jacket (for your own
safety and in compliance with national
laws) before getting out of the vehicle.
The engine must stay off while the
vehicle is raised from the ground.
The spare wheel or, depending on the
version, space-saver wheel is located
under the luggage compartment carpet
fig. 130.
To access the wheel or space-saver
wheel, proceed as follows:
❒open the tailgate, grip handle A fig.
131 and raise load platform B, holding
it with one hand;❒pull tab C fig. 132 and lift the carpet;

146)The jack is a tool developed and
designed only for changing a wheel, if a
tyre gets punctured or damaged, on the
vehicle with which it is supplied or on other
vehicles of the same model. It must not
be used, for example, to jack other vehicle
models or objects. Never use the jack to
carry out maintenance or repairs under the
vehicle. Never position yourself under a
jacked vehicle. Should it be necessary to
work under the vehicle, contact a Jeep
Dealership. Incorrectly positioning the jack
may cause the vehicle to fall: use it only
in the positions indicated. Do not use the
jack for loads higher than the one shown
on its label.
147)The space-saver wheel cannot be
fitted with snow chains. If a front (drive) tyre
is punctured and chains are needed, use
a standard wheel from the rear axle and
install the space-saver wheel on the rear
axle. In this way, with two normal drive
wheels at the front axle, it is possible to use
snow chains.
148)Incorrect hub cap assembly, if
present, may cause it to come off when the
vehicle is moving. Never tamper with the
inflation valve. Never introduce tools of any
kind between the rim and the tyre. Check
tyre and space-saver wheel pressures
regularly, complying with the values given in
the "Technical specifications" chapter.TIREKIT
(where provided)
DESCRIPTION
The TireKit is located in the luggage
compartment inside a dedicated
container.
The container is also equipped with a
screwdriver, the tow hook and the
refuelling adaptor.
To access the TireKit, open the tailgate,
remove the reconfigurable load platform
and lift the carpet.
149) 151)55)3)The TireKit also contains:
❒bottle A fig. 138 containing sealant

clearly visible position (e.g. on
the dashboard) after repairing the tyre;❒a compressor D complete with
pressure gauge and connectors;
❒instruction leaflet for quick, correct
use of the TireKit;
❒a pair of gloves located in the side
compartment of the compressor;
❒adaptors for inflating different
elements.
IMPORTANT The sealing fluid is
effective with external temperatures of
between –20°C and +50°C. The sealing
fluid has an expiry date.
INFLATION PROCEDURE
150) 152) 153) 154) 155) 156)

❒make sure that the switch for the
compressor is in position0(off), start
the engine, insert the plug into the
luggage compartment power socket or
on central tunnel and switch on the
compressor by bringing the switch to
positionI(on);
❒inflate the tyre to the pressure
indicated in the “Wheels” paragraph
(see “Technical data” chapter). In order
to obtain a more precise reading, check
the pressure value on pressure gauge
B with the compressor off;
❒if after five minutes it is still impossible
to reach at least 1.8 bar, disengage
the compressor from the valve and
power socket, then move the vehicle
forwards by approx. ten metres in order
to distribute the sealing fluid inside the
tyre evenly, then repeat the inflation
operation;
❒if after this operation you still cannot
reach at least 1.8 bar after 5 minutes
from switching on the compressor,
do not resume driving but contact a
Jeep Dealership;
❒after having driven for about 10
minutes, stop and re-check the tyre
pressure; remember to engage the
electric parking brake;❒if a pressure value of at least 1.8 bar
is detected, restore the correct
pressure (with engine running and
electric parking brake), resume driving
immediately and drive with great care to
a Jeep Dealership.
WARNING
149)Punctures on the sides of the tyre
may not be repaired. Do not use the TireKit
if the tyre is damaged due to travelling
when flat.
150)Wear the protective gloves provided
with the TireKit.
151)Apply the adhesive label where it can
be easily seen by the driver as a reminder
that the tyre has been treated with the
TireKit. Drive carefully, particularly on
bends. Do not exceed 80 km/h. Do not
accelerate or brake suddenly.
152)If the pressure has fallen below 1.8
bar, do not drive any further: the TireKit
cannot guarantee proper hold because the
tyre is too damaged. Contact a Jeep
Dealership.
153)You must always indicate that the tyre
was repaired using the TireKit. Give the
leaflet to the technicians who will be
handling the tyre that was treated using the
TireKit.
154)Repair is not possible if the wheel rim
is damaged (groove is deformed, causing
air to escape). Do not remove foreign
bodies (screws or nails) from the tyre.155)Do not operate the compressor for
longer than 20 minutes consecutively. Risk
of overheating. The TireKit is not suitable
for definitive repairs, so the repaired tyres
may only be used temporarily.
156)The bottle contains ethylene glycol
and latex: it may cause an allergic reaction.
It is harmful if swallowed. It is irritant for
the eyes. It may cause sensitisation if
inhaled or on contact. Avoid contact with
eyes, skin and clothes. In the case of
contact, wash immediately with plenty of
water. In the event that it is swallowed, do
not induce vomiting. Rinse out your mouth,
drink large quantities of water and seek
immediate medical attention. Keep out of
the reach of children. The product must
not be used by asthmatics. Do not inhale
the vapours during insertion and suction.
Call a doctor immediately if allergic
reactions are noted. Store the bottle in its
proper compartment, away from sources
of heat. The sealant fluid has an expiry
date. Replace the bottle containing
out-of-date sealant fluid.
WARNING
55)In the event of a puncture caused by
foreign bodies, the kit may be used to
repair tyres showing damages on the tread
or shoulder up to max. 4 mm diameter.
