dedicated section
eco:Drive™
Theeco:Drive™system lets you view your
driving behaviour in real time, with the
aim of helping you achieve more efficient
driving from the point of view of
consumption and emissions.
In addition, you can also save the data
on a USB key or thanks toApp
Uconnect™LIVE and effect data processing
on your own computer thanks to the
desktop application eco:Drive™ available
on www.jeep-official.it or
www.driveuconnect.eu.
Evaluation of the driving style is linked to
four indexes that monitor the following
parameters: acceleration/deceleration/
gear shift/speed.
Viewing eco:Drive
To interact with the function, press the
graphiceco:Drive™button.
A screen will be displayed showing the
4 indices described above. These indices
are grey until the system has enough
data to evaluate the driving style.
Once sufficient data are available, the
indices will have 5 colours depending onthe evaluation: dark green (very good),
light green, yellow, orange and red (very
bad).
"Current route index" refers to the entire
value calculated in real time based on
the average of the described indices. It
represents eco-friendliness of the driving
style: from 0 (low) to 100 (high).
In case of prolonged stops, the screen
will show the average indexes obtained
up to that moment (the "Average Index")
to later start recolouring the indexes in
real time when the car starts moving
again.
If you want to confirm the data averages
from the previous trip (by "trip" a cycle of
positioning the starting device in MAR
and later in STOP is meant), select the
graphic button "Previous Route".
The details of the previous trip can also
be displayed by pressing the "Details"
button, in which journey duration (time
and mileage) and average speed will be
reported.
Trip data storage and transfer
The travel data can be saved in the
system memory and transferred via a
USB key that has been purposefully
configured or thanks to theApp
Uconnect™LIVE.This allows you to
display the history of the collected data,
showing the complete analysis of the trip
306

data and of your driving style.
More information is available on the
www.driveuconnect.eu site.
IMPORTANT Do not remove the USB
key or uncouple the smart phone with
theApp Uconnect™LIVE before the
system has downloaded the data,
because it could be lost.During the
transfer of data to the devices,
messages may appear on the radio
display to guide the user correctly
through the operation; follow these
instructions. These messages are
viewed only on the starter device in
STOP position and when a delay is set
in turning off the system. The data are
automatically transferred to the
devices when the engine is switched
off. Transferred data will be deleted
from the system memory in this
manner. You can decide to register the
travel data or not by pressing the
graphic button "Settings" and setting
registration activation and the mode of
transfer to USB or Cloud.
When the USB key memory is full, the
radio screen will show messages to that
effect.

the internal memory systemUconnect™LIVEcould become saturated:
in this case, follow the recommendations
provided by the messages on the
