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.
On some versions, the display shows the dedicated message.
Contact a Jeep Dealership as soon as possible.

The warning light switches on constantly if the vehicle is stationary and the driver side or passenger side
seat belt, with the passenger seated, is not fastened. The warning light flashes and a buzzer will sound if
the vehicle is in motion and the driver side or passenger side seat belt, with the passenger seated, is not
correctly fastened.
In this case, fasten the seat belt.
WARNING
28)If thewarning light does not switch on when the ignition device is moved to MAR or if it stays on when driving (together with the
message on the display), there might be a fault in the restraint systems; in this case, the airbags or pretensioners may not deploy in the event
of an accident or, in a lower number of cases, they could deploy erroneously. Before proceeding, contact a Jeep Dealership to have the
system checked as soon as possible.
29)The fault of the
warning light is signalled by the switching on of the iconon the instrument panel. In this case, the warning light
may not indicate any faults with the restraint systems. Before continuing, contact a Jeep Dealership immediately to have the system checked.

Warning light What it means
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
The warning light (or the icon on the display) on some versions switches on when the engine is overheated.
The display shows the dedicated message.
When driving normally: stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and check that the water level in the
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
accelerated to further favour the coolant circulation. Then stop the engine. Check the correct coolant level
as described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to keep the engine on and slightly accelerated for a
few minutes before switching it off.

Warning light What it means
TPMS SYSTEM
TPMS failure

Dealership as soon as possible. Should one or more wheels be fitted without sensors, the display will show
a warning message until initial conditions are restored.
IMPORTANT Do not continue driving with one or more flat tyres as handling may be compromised. Stop
the vehicle, avoiding sharp braking and steering. Repair immediately using the dedicated tyre repair kit and
contact the dedicated Jeep Dealership as soon as possible.
Tyre pressure low
The warning light switches on and a message is displayed to indicate that the tyre pressure is lower than
the recommended value and/or that slow pressure loss is occurring. In these cases, optimal tyre duration
and fuel consumption may not be guaranteed.
Should two or more tyres be in the condition mentioned above, the display will show the indications
corresponding to each tyre in sequence.
In any situation in which the message on the display is "See manual", it is ESSENTIAL to refer to the
contents of the "Wheels" paragraph in the "Technical data" chapter, strictly complying with the indications
that you find there.
