start stop button JEEP RENEGADE 2018 Owner handbook (in English)

MAR: driving position. All electrical
devices are available. This state can be
entered by pressing the ignition device
button once, without pressing the brake
pedal (versions with automatic
transmission) or the clutch pedal
(versions with manual gearbox);
AVV: engine starting.
Starting the engine (with electronic key
battery flat): in this case, rest the rounded
edge of the electronic key (the side
opposite the metal insert) on the ignition
device and press the button using the
electronic key.
Stopping the engine (with electronic key
battery flat): to switch off the engine in
this situation, hold down the ignition
device button for a while or press it
3 times in a row within a few seconds.
NOTE The ignition device does NOT
activate if the electronic key is inside the
boot and this is open.
NOTE With the ignition device at MAR, if
30 minutes pass with the vehicle
stationary (versions with manual gearbox)
or with the gear lever at P (Park)
(versions with automatic transmission)
and the engine off, the ignition device
will automatically move to the STOP
position.
NOTE If the device does switch off the
car, refer to the “Display” paragraph in
the “Knowing the instrument panel”chapter, where available, and contact the
Jeep Dealership as soon as possible.
For more information on the engine
start-up, see the description in the
"Starting the engine" paragraph, in the
"Starting and driving" chapter.STEERING LOCK
Activation
Versions with mechanical key: with the
device in the STOP position, remove the
key and turn the wheel until it locks.
WARNING Locking the steering wheel
can only be done after removing the
starter key if the key has been turned in
the starter from the position MAR to
STOP.
Versions with electronic key: the steering
lock is inserted into the driver's door with
the starter device button in the STOP
position and the speed is less than
3km/h.
Deactivation
Versions with mechanical key: move the
wheel lightly, turn the key to MAR
position.
Versions with electronic key: the steering
lock is removed when the starter button
is pressed and the electronic key is
recognised.
WARNING On automatic transmissionversions, to remove the key smoothly, we
advise you to position the gear shift to P,
release the brake in safe conditions and
then turn off the engine.

WARNING
2)If the ignition device has been
tampered with (e.g. an attempted theft),
have it checked over by a Jeep Dealership
before driving again.
3)Always take the key with you when you
leave your vehicle to prevent someone
from accidentally operating the controls.
Remember to engage the electric parking
brake. Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle.
4)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installation of
anti-theft device) that could adversely
affect performance, invalidate the
warranty, cause serious safety problems
and also result in the car not meeting
type-approval requirements.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

5)Never extract the mechanical key while
the vehicle is moving. The steering wheel
will automatically lock as soon as it is
turned. This holds true for cars being
towed as well.
6)Before leaving the vehicle, ALWAYS
engage the handbrake. On versions
equipped with automatic transmission,
move the gear lever to STOP (Park) and
press the ignition device to set it to STOP.
When leaving the vehicle, always lock all
the doors by pressing the button on the
handle.
7)For versions equipped with the Keyless
Enter-N-Go system, do not leave the
electronic key inside or near the car or in
a place accessible to children. Do not
leave the vehicle with the ignition device
in MAR position. A child could activate
the electric window winders, other
controls or even start the vehicle.SENTRY KEY®
TheSentry Key®system, prevents
unauthorised use of the vehicle,
disabling engine starting.
The system does not need to be
enabled/activated: operation is
automatic, regardless of the fact that the
vehicle's doors are locked or unlocked.
When the ignition device is taken to
MAR, theSentry Key®system identifies
the code transmitted by the key. If the
code is recognised as valid, theSentry
Key®system enables engine starting.
When the ignition device is brought back
to STOP, theSentry Key®system
deactivates the control unit controlling
the engine, thus preventing its starting.
For the correct engine starting
procedures, see the instructions in the
"Starting the engine" paragraph, "Starting
and driving" chapter.
IRREGULAR OPERATION
If, during starting, the key code is not
correctly recognised, the
icon is
displayed on the instrument panel (see
the instructions in the "Warning lights
and messages" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter). This
condition leads to the engine switching
off after 2 seconds. In this case, bringthe ignition device to STOP and then to
MAR; if it is still blocked, try with the
other keys provided. If it is still not
possible to start the engine, contact a
Jeep Dealership.
If the
icon is displayed while driving,
this means that the system is running a
self-diagnosis (e.g. due to a voltage
drop). If the displaying is still on, contact
a Jeep Dealership.

Operation
The automatic dual zone climate control
system regulates the air temperatures in
the passenger compartment in two zones:
driver side and passenger side.
The system maintains comfort inside the
passenger compartment and
compensates for possible variations in
outside weather conditions.
The automatically controlled parameters
and functions are:
air temperature at the driver/front
passenger side vents;
air distribution at the driver/front
passenger side vents;
fan speed (continuous variation of the
air flow);
compressor engagement (for
cooling/dehumidifying the air);
air recirculation.
All these functions can be adjusted
manually by operating the system and
selecting one or more functions and
modifying their parameters.
The temperature of the air sent is always
automatically controlled according to the
temperature set on the display (exceptfor when the system is off or in certain
conditions when the compressor is not
running).
Notes
Do not apply stickers to the inside of the
heated rear window over the heating
filaments, to avoid damage that might
cause them to stop working properly.
Internal air recirculation makes it
possible to reach the required ("heating"
or "cooling") conditions more quickly
depending on the mode selected. Do not
use the air recirculation function on
rainy/cold days as it would considerably
increase the possibility of the windows
misting inside.
The dual zone automatic climate control
manages the Stop&Start system (engine
off and car at a standstill) in order to
guarantee sufficient comfort inside the
car.
With Stop&Start function on (engine off
and car stopped), the flow is reduced as
much as possible, to keep the
compartment comfort conditions for
longer.

116) 117) 118)44) 45) 46) 47)
Before starting the engine, adjust the
seat, the interior rear view mirrors, the
door mirrors and fasten the seat belt
correctly.
Never press the accelerator pedal for
starting the engine.
If necessary, messages indicating the
starting procedure can be shown on the
display.
LPG versions
The engine always starts up on petrol
independently of the previously selected
mode.
There must therefore always be some
petrol in the tank to protect the petrol
pump and to guarantee temporary
switching from Methane or LPG to petrol
operation, if high performance is
required.
PROCEDURE FOR VERSIONS
WITH MANUAL GEARBOX
Proceed as follows:engage the electric parking brake and
place the gear lever in neutral;
bring the ignition device to MAR. On
Diesel versions, waning lightlights upin the instrument panel: wait for the
warning light to switch off;
fully depress the clutch pedal without
touching the accelerator;
turn the ignition device to AVV and
release it as soon as the engine starts;
if the engine does not start within
10 seconds, bring the ignition device
back to STOP and wait for
10-15 seconds before repeating the
starting procedure.
PROCEDURE FOR VERSIONS
WITH AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
Proceed as follows:engage the electric parking brake and
place the gear lever to P (Park) or N
(Neutral);
fully depress the brake pedal without
touching the accelerator;
place the ignition device to AVV;if the engine does not start, bring the
ignition device back to STOP and wait for
10-15 seconds before repeating the
starting procedure.
IMPORTANT If, with the ignition
device at MAR, thesymbol on the
instrument panel stays on together
with warning light
, turn the
ignition device to STOP and then back
to MAR. If the warning light (or thesymbol on the display) remains on, try
with the other keys provided with the
vehicle. Contact a Jeep Dealership if
the engine still does not start.
ENGINE STARTING FAILURE
Starting the engine with electronic key
battery (Keyless Enter-N-Go) run down or
flat
If the ignition device does not respond
when the relevant button is pressed the
electronic key battery might be run down
or flat. Therefore, the system does not
detect the presence of the electronic key
on board the vehicle and displays a
dedicated message.
In this case, rest the rounded edge of the
electronic key (the side opposite the
metal insert) on the ignition device and
press the button by the electronic key.
The ignition device is thus activated and
the engine can be started.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Proceed as follows:park the car in a position that is not
dangerous for oncoming traffic; engage a
gear (versions with manual gearbox) or
position the gear lever to P (Parking)
(versions with automatic transmission);
turn the ignition device to STOP with
the engine idling.
146
STARTING AND DRIVING

Cars equipped with electronic key (Keyless
Enter-N-Go):at a car speed over 8 km/h
(5 mph) it is possible to switch the
engine off, also with automatic
transmission lever in a position other
than P (Parking). To switch off the engine
in this situation, hold down the ignition
device button for a while or press it
3 times in a row within a few seconds. In
this case the engine will stop and the
ignition device will switch to MAR.
WARNING
116)It is dangerous to run the engine in
enclosed areas. The engine takes in
oxygen and releases carbon dioxide,
carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.
117)The brake servo is not active until
the engine is started, so you would need
to apply much more force than usual to
the brake pedal.
118)Do not start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. These
manoeuvres may damage the catalytic
converter.
IMPORTANT
44)We recommend that during the initial
period, or during the first 1600 km
(1000 miles), you do not drive to full car
performance (e.g. excessive acceleration,
long journeys at top speed, sharp braking,
etc.).
45)When the engine is switched off never
leave the ignition device in the MAR
position to prevent useless current
absorption from draining the battery.
46)A quick burst on the accelerator before
turning off the engine serves absolutely no
practical purpose; it wastes fuel and is
damaging for the engine.
47)Warning light
will flash after
starting or during prolonged cranking to
indicate a fault with the glow plug heating
system. If the engine starts, the vehicle
can be regularly used, but a Jeep
Dealership must be contacted as soon as
possible.
PARKING THE VEHICLE
Always remove the ignition key when
leaving the car.
When parking and leaving the car,
proceed as follows:
engage a gear (1st gear if facing uphill
or reverse if facing downhill) and leave
the wheels turned;
stop the engine and engage the
handbrake.
Block the wheels with a wedge or a stone
if the car is parked on a steep slope.
On versions equipped with automatic
transmission or dual clutch automatic
transmission, wait for the letter P to be
displayed before releasing the brake
pedal.
IMPORTANT NEVER leave the car with
the gearbox in neutral (or, on versions
equipped with automatic transmission
or dual clutch automatic transmission,
before putting the shift lever in the P
position).
147

The gear engaged is shown on the
display.
The lever has a button A fig. 106, which
must be pressed to move the lever to P or
R.
If the transmission is used in "sequential"
mode, which is activated moving the
lever from D (Drive) to the left, the
various positions can be reached towards
+ or –. These positions are unstable.
To exit from the P (Park) position, or to
pass from the N (Neutral) position to the
D (Drive) or R (Reverse) position when
the car is stopped or is moving at a low
speed, the brake pedal must also be
pressed (see "Gear engagement disabling
system with brake engaged" in this
chapter).
IMPORTANT DO NOT accelerate while
shifting from position P (or N) to
another position.
IMPORTANT After selecting a gear,
wait a few seconds before accelerating.
This precaution is particularly
important with a cold engine.
AutoStick - Sequential shifting mode
In the case of frequent gearshiftings (e.g.
when the vehicle is driven with a heavy
load, on slopes, with strong headwind or
when towing heavy trailers), it is
recommended to use the AutoStick
(sequential shifting) mode to select and
keep a lower fixed ratio.
It is possible to shift from position D
(Drive) to the sequential mode regardless
of car speed.
Activation
With gear lever in position D (Drive), to
activate the sequential drive mode, move
the lever to the left (– and + indication of
the panel). The gear engaged will be
shown on the display. Gearshifting is
made by moving the gear lever forwards,
towards symbol – or backwards, towards
symbol +.
Deactivation
Bring the gear lever back in position D
(Drive) ("automatic" driving mode).
TRANSMISSION EMERGENCY
FUNCTION
(where provided)
Transmission operation is constantly
monitored to detect any fault. If a
condition that might damage the
transmission is detected, the
"transmission emergency" function is
activated.
In this condition, the transmission stays
in 4th gear, regardless of the selected
gear.
Positions P (Parking), R (Reverse) e N
(Neutral) still work. Icon
might light
up in the display
In the event of a "transmission
emergency" immediately contact the
nearest Jeep Dealership.
Temporary failure
In the event of a temporary failure, the
transmission correct operation can be
restored for all the forwards gears by
proceeding as follows:
stop the vehicle;bring the transmission lever to P
(Park).
bring the ignition device to STOP;wait for about 10 seconds, then restart
the engine;
select the desired gear: if the problem
is not detected anymore the transmission
correct operation is restored.
