FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM
173)
This intervenes in the case of an impact
causing:
the interruption of the fuel supply with
the engine consequently cutting out;
the automatic unlocking of the doors;turning on the lights inside the car;deactivation of climate control system
ventilation;
switching on the hazard warning lights
(to disable the lights, perform the “reset”
procedure as described below).
On some versions, the intervention of the
system is indicated by a message shown
on the display. In the same way, a
dedicated message on the display warns
the driver if system operation is
compromised.
IMPORTANT Carefully check the
vehicle for fuel leaks, for instance in
the engine compartment, under the
vehicle or near the tank area. After a
collision, bring the ignition device to
STOP to prevent the battery from
running down.
Reset procedure
To restore correct operation of the
vehicle, carry out the following procedure(this procedure must be started and
completed within less than one minute):
bring the ignition device to MAR;turn on the direction indicators on the
right, then on the left, then again on the
right and again on the left;
now deactivate the direction indicators
on the left;
bring the ignition device to STOP;move the ignition device to MAR.
LPG versions
In case of collision, the petrol feed is
immediately closed, the LPG safety
solenoid valves are closed and injection
is interrupted to stop the engine.
WARNING
173)If, after an impact, you smell fuel or
notice leaks from the fuel system, do not
reactivate the system to avoid the risk of
fire.

BROKEN-DOWN VEHICLE
TOWING
It is recommended to tow the vehicle
with all four wheels lifted from the
ground on the platform of a rescue
vehicle.
VERSIONS WITH FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (4WD)
AND AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
IMPORTANT Avoid lifting the front (or
rear) wheels only. Lifting the front (or
rear) wheels only while towing might
damage the transmission or the
transfer unit.
IMPORTANT If a vehicle is towed
without complying with the above
requirements, the transmission and/or
the transfer unit might be seriously
damaged. Damage due to an incorrect
towing will not be covered by the
warranty.

housing in the tool support and tighten it
securely on the front threaded pin.
Rear
Remove cap A fig. 194, take tow ring B
from its housing in the tool support andtighten it securely on the rear threaded
pin.
Trailhawk versions: tow hook A fig. 195,
fixed type, is secured to the car body.
WARNING
174)For versions with key without remote
control, before towing, turn the ignition
key to MAR and then to STOP without
removing it. The steering column will
automatically lock when the key is
removed and the wheels cannot be
steered. Also check that the gearbox is in

ENGINE OIL
179)84)
Check that the oil level is between the
MIN and MAX references on the dipstick
A. If the oil level is near or even under
the MIN line, add oil using the filler B to
reach the MAX line.
Take out the engine oil dipstick A, clean
it with a lint-free cloth and reinsert it.
Extract it again and check that the level
is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the dipstick.
Engine oil consumption
85)4)
The maximum engine oil consumption is
usually 400 grams every 1,000 km.
During the initial period of use the
engine oil consumption conditions
should be considered as having stabilised
after the first 5000 - 6000 km.
ENGINE COOLANT
180)86)
If the level is too low, unscrew the cap of
reservoir C and add the fluid described in
the "Technical Specifications" section.
WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW
WASHER FLUID
181) 182)
If the level is too low, lift reservoir cap D
and add the fluid described in the
chapter "Technical Specifications".
BRAKE FLUID
183) 184)87)
Check that the fluid is at the max. level.
If the fluid level in the reservoir is too
low, undo reservoir cap E and add the
fluid described in the chapter "Technical
Specifications".

TRANSMISSION ACTUATION
SYSTEM OIL
5)
The transmission control oil level should
only be checked at a Jeep Dealership.
BATTERY
185) 186) 187) 188)6)
The battery does not require the
electrolyte to be topped up with distilled
water. A periodic check carried out at a
Jeep Dealership is, however, necessary to
check efficiency.
IMPORTANT After the battery is
disconnected, the steering must be
initialised. The
warning light on the
instrument panel switches on to
indicate this. To carry out this
procedure turn the steering wheel all
the way from one end to the other or
drive in a straight line for about a
hundred metres.
IMPORTANT If the charge level
remains under 50% for a long time,
the battery is damaged by sulphation,
reducing its capacity and efficiency at
start-up.
CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
MAINTENANCE
In winter, the climate control system
must be turned on at least once a month
for about 10 minutes. Have the system
inspected at a Jeep Dealership before the
summer.
WARNING
177)Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: gas and
inflammable vapours may be present, with
the risk of fire.
