radio JEEP RENEGADE 2015 1.G User Guide

The driver’s primary responsibility is the safe operation of the vehicle. Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control, resulting in a collision and personal injury. Chrysler Group LLC strongly recommends that the driver use extreme caution when using any device or feature that may take their attention o! the road. Use of any electrical devices, such as cellular telephones, computers, portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices, by the driver while the vehicle is moving is dangerous and could lead to a serious collision. Texting while driving is also dangerous and should never be done while the vehicle is moving. If you find yourself unable to devote your full attention to vehicle operation, pull o! the road to a safe location and stop your vehicle. Some states or provinces prohibit the use of cellular telephones or texting while driving. It is always the driver’s responsibility to comply with all local laws.
If you are the first registered retail owner of
your vehicle, you may obtain a complimentary
printed copy of the Owner’s Manual, Navigation/
Uconnect® Manuals or Warranty Booklet by calling
1-877-426-5337 (U.S.) or 1-800-387-1143 (Canada)
or by contacting your dealer.
This guide has been prepared to help you get quickly
acquainted with your new Jeep and to provide a convenient
reference source for common questions. However, it is not
a substitute for your Owner’s Manual.
For complete operational instructions, maintenance
procedures and important safety messages, please consult
your Owner’s Manual, Navigation/Uconnect® Manuals and
other Warning Labels in your vehicle.
Not all features shown in this guide may apply to your
vehicle. For additional information on accessories to help
personalize your vehicle, visit www.mopar.com (U.S.),
www.mopar.ca (Canada) or your local Jeep dealer.
Impor tant:
This User Guide is intended to familiarize you with the important features of your vehicle. The DVD enclosed contains your Owner’s Manual, Navigation/Uconnect® Manuals, Warranty Booklets, Tire Warranty and Roadside Assistance (new vehicles purchased in the U.S.) or Roadside Assistance (new vehicles purchased in Canada) in electronic format. We hope you find it useful. Replacement DVD kits may be purchased by visiting www.techauthority.com. Jeep® and Renegade are registered trademarks of Chrysler Group LLC. © 2015 Chrysler Group LLC.
Driving and Alcohol:
Drunken driving is one of the most frequent causes of collisions. Your driving ability can be seriously impaired with blood alcohol levels far below the legal minimum. If you are drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab, a friend, or use public transportation.
Driving after drinking can lead to a collision. Your perceptions are less sharp, your reflexes are slower, and your judgment is impaired when you have been drinking. Never drink and then drive.

WELCOME FROM FCA US LLC
Congratulations on selecting your new FCA US LLC vehicle. Be assured that it
represents precision workmanship, distinctive styling, and high quality - all essen-
tials that are traditional to our vehicles.

which can be viewed on a personal computer or MAC computer. The multimedia DVD
also includes videos which can be played on any standard DVD player (including the
Uconnect®Touchscreen Radios if equipped with DVD player capabilities). Additional
DVD operational information is located on the back of the DVD sleeve.

Seatback Repositioning
NOTE:
If interference from the cargo area prevents the seatback from fully locking, you will
have difficulty returning the seat to its proper position.
1. Move the safety belts to the seat belt guides on the top edge of the seat to ensure
the seatbacks properly latch.
2. Lift the seatbacks, pushing them back until they lock on both the latches. Verify
the red notches are no longer visible on the release lever. If the red notches are
visible, the seatback is not secure.
Unfolding The Rear Armrest 40/20/40
Tilt the head restraint forward and pull the rear armrest tab to release it from the seat
and pull forward.
The center part of the rear seat can also be used as rear armrest with cupholders.
WARNING!
Be certain that the seatback is securely locked into position. If the seatback is not
securely locked into position the seat will not provide the proper stability for child
seats and/or passengers. An improperly latched seat could cause serious injury.
HEATED STEERING WHEEL
The steering wheel contains a heating element that helps warm your hands in cold
weather. The heated steering wheel has only one temperature setting. Once the
heated steering wheel switchhas been turned on, it will operate for up to 80
minutes before automatically shutting off. The heated steering wheel can shut off
early or may not turn on when the steering wheel is already warm. The heated steering
wheel control button is located on the center of the instrument panel below the radio
screen.
WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age,
chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaus-
tion, or other physical conditions must exercise care when using the steering
wheel heater. It may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used
for long periods.
• Do not place anything on the steering wheel that insulates against heat, such
as a blanket or steering wheel covers of any type and material. This may cause
the steering wheel heater to overheat.

NOTE:
• The BSM system does NOT alert the driver about rapidly approaching vehicles that
are outside the detection zones.
• The BSM system detection zone DOES NOT change if your vehicle is towing a
trailer. Therefore, visually verify the adjacent lane is clear for both your vehicle and
trailer before making a lane change. If the trailer or other object (i.e., bicycle,
sports equipment) extends beyond the side of your vehicle, this may result in the
BSM warning light remaining illuminated the entire time the vehicle is in a forward
gear. It may be necessary to deactivate BSM system manually by related menu to
avoid a miss-detection.
The area on the rear fascia where the radar sensors are located must remain free of
snow, ice, and dirt/road contamination so that the BSM system can function properly.
Do not block the radar sensors located on the rear fascia with foreign objects (bumper
stickers, bicycle racks, etc.).
The BSM system notifies the driver of objects in the detection zones by illuminating
the BSM warning light located in the outside mirrors in addition to sounding an
audible (chime) alert and reducing the radio volume.
The BSM system monitors the detection zone from three different entry points (side,
rear, front) while driving to see if an alert is necessary. The BSM system will issue an
alert during these types of zone entries.
Entering From The Side
Vehicles that move into your adjacent lanes from either side of the vehicle.
Entering From The Rear
Vehicles that come up from behind your vehicle on either side and enter the rear
detection zone with a relative speed of less than 31 mph (50 km/h).
Overtaking Traffic
If you pass another vehicle slowly with a relative speed less than 15 mph (25 km/h)
and the vehicle remains in the blind spot for approximately 1.5 seconds, the warning
light will be illuminated. If the difference in speed between the two vehicles is
greater than 15 mph (25 km/h), the warning light will not illuminate.
The BSM system is designed not to issue an alert on stationary objects such as
guardrails, posts, walls, foliage, berms, etc. However, occasionally the system may
alert on such objects. This is normal operation and your vehicle does not require
service.
The BSM system will not alert you of objects that are traveling in the opposite
direction of the vehicle in adjacent lanes.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE

WARNING!
The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only an aid to help detect objects in the blind
spot zones. The BSM system is not designed to detect pedestrians, bicyclists, or
animals. Even if your vehicle is equipped with the BSM system, always check your
vehicles mirrors, glance over your shoulder, and use your turn signal before
changing lanes. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death.
Rear Cross Path (RCP)
The Rear Cross Path (RCP) feature is intended to aid the driver when backing out of
parking spaces where their vision of oncoming vehicles may be blocked. Proceed
slowly and cautiously out of the parking space until the rear end of the vehicle is
exposed. The RCP system will then have a clear view of the cross traffic and if an
oncoming vehicle is detected, alert the driver.
RCP monitors the rear detection zones on both sides of the vehicle, for objects that
are moving toward the side of the vehicle with a minimum speed of approximately
1 mph (2 km/h), to objects moving a maximum of approximately 22 mph (35 km/h),
such as in parking lot situations.
NOTE:
In a parking lot situation, oncoming vehicles can be obscured by vehicles parked on
either side. If the sensors are blocked by other structures or vehicles, the system will
not be able to alert the driver.
When RCP is on and the vehicle is in REVERSE, the driver is alerted using both the
visual and audible alarms, including reducing the radio volume.
WARNING!
RCP is not a Back Up Aid system. It is intended to be used to help a driver detect
an oncoming vehicle in a parking lot situation. Drivers must be careful when
backing up, even when using RCP. Always check carefully behind your vehicle,
look behind you, and be sure to check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles,
obstructions, and blind spots before backing up. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death.

Mode Of Operation
Three selectable modes of operation are available in the Uconnect®System. Refer to
“Uconnect®Settings” in “Multimedia” in your Owner’s Manual on the DVD for
further information.
Blind Spot Alert Lights Only
When operating in Blind Spot Alert mode, the BSM system will provide a visual alert
in the appropriate side view mirror based on a detected object. However, when the
system is operating in Rear Cross Path (RCP) mode, the system will respond with
both visual and audible alerts when a detected object is present. Whenever an
audible alert is requested, the radio is muted.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime mode, the BSM system will provide a
visual alert in the appropriate side view mirror based on a detected object. If the turn
signal is then activated, and it corresponds to an alert present on that side of the vehicle,
an audible chime will also be sounded. Whenever a turn signal and detected object are
present on the same side at the same time, both the visual and audible alerts will be
issued. In addition to the audible alert, the radio (if on) will also be muted.
NOTE:
Whenever an audible alert is requested by the BSM system, the radio is also muted.
When the system is in RCP, the system will respond with both visual and audiblealerts when a detected object is present. Whenever an audible alert is requested, theradio is also muted. Turn/hazard signal status is ignored; the RCP state alwaysrequests the chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off, there will be no visual or audible alerts from
either the BSM or RCP systems.
NOTE:
The BSM system will store the current operating mode when the vehicle is shut off.
Each time the vehicle is started the previously stored mode will be recalled and used.
Blind Spot Monitoring Fault Warnings
Sensor Blinded
In the case of a sensor blinded:
• BSM Mirror Warning Lights are turned on continuously.
• A chime will turn on.
• A instrument cluster message will display“Blind Spot Monitoring Unavailable - Wipe
Rear Bumper Corners.”
NOTE:
The rear bumper must be clean and free of any obstructing debris.
