ACTIVE SAFETY SYSTEMS
ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)
This system, which is an integral part of
the braking system, prevents one or more
wheels from locking and slipping in all
road surface conditions, irrespective of
the intensity of the braking action,
ensuring that the vehicle can be
controlled even during emergency
braking and optimising stopping
distances.
System intervention
The driver can feel that the ABS system
has come into action because the brake
pedal pulsates slightly and the system
gets noisier: this is entirely normal with
the system operating.
36) 37) 38) 39) 40) 41) 42)
DTC (Drag Torque Control)
SYSTEM
The DTC (Drag Torque Control) System
prevents the locking of the drive wheels
that may occur in the event, for example,
of sudden release of the accelerator
pedal or abrupt downshifting in low-grip
conditions.
In such conditions, the braking effect of
the engine may cause slipping of the
drive wheels and consequent loss of
vehicle stability. In these situations, theDTC system intervenes by restoring
torque to the engine in order to preserve
stability and increase vehicle safety.
ESC (Electronic Stability Control)
SYSTEM
The ESC system improves the directional
control and stability of the vehicle in
various driving conditions, correcting
understeer and oversteer, distributing the
brake force on the appropriate wheels.
System intervention
The intervention of the system is
indicated by the flashing of the
warning light on the instrument panel,
to inform the driver that the vehicle is in
critical stability and grip conditions.
43) 44) 45) 46) 47)
TC (Traction Control) SYSTEM
The system automatically operates in the
event of slipping, loss of grip on wet
roads (aquaplaning) and acceleration on
slippery, snowy or icy roads, etc. on one
or both drive wheels.
System intervention
The intervention of the system is
indicated by the flashing of the
warning light on the instrument panel,
to inform the driver that the vehicle is in
critical stability and grip conditions.
48) 49) 50) 51) 52)
PBA (Panic Brake Assist) SYSTEM
The PBA system is designed to improve
the vehicle’s braking capacity during
emergency braking.
The brake pedal should be pressed
continuously during braking, avoiding
intermittent presses, to get the most out
of the system. Do not reduce pressure on
the brake pedal until braking is not
necessary anymore.
The PBA system is deactivated when the
brake pedal is released.
53) 54) 55)
HSA (Hill Start Assist)
It is an integral part of the ESC system
and facilitates starting on an incline.
56) 57)
DST SYSTEM (Dynamic Steering
Torque)
The DST function uses the integration of
the ESC system with the electric power
steering to increase the safety level of
the whole vehicle.

SAFETY

40)Do not wash with high-pressure jets in
the bumper lower area: in particular do not
operate on the system's electrical
connector.
41)Be careful in the case of repairs and
new paintings in the area around the
sensor (panel covering the sensor on the
left side of the bumper). In the event of a
frontal impact the sensor may
automatically deactivate and display a
warning to indicate that the sensor needs
to be repaired. Even without a malfunction
warning, deactivate the system operation if
you think that the position of the radar
sensor has changed (e.g. due to low-speed
frontal impact as during parking
manoeuvres). In these cases, go to a Jeep
Dealership to have the radar sensor
realigned or replaced.
42)The tyre quick repair kit (TireKit),
provided with the vehicle, is compatible
with the TPMS sensors. Using sealants
different from that in the original kit may
compromise its operation. If sealants not
equivalent with the original ones are used,
it is recommended to have the TPMS
sensor operation checked by a qualified
repair centre.OCCUPANT PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
Some of the most important safety
equipment of the vehicle comprise the
following protection systems:
seat belts;SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;head restraints;child restraint systems;Front airbags and side bags.
Read the information given the following
pages with the utmost care. It is of
fundamental importance that the
protection systems are used in the
correct way to guarantee the maximum
possible safety level for the driver and
the passengers.

SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the car under
the best conditions. For this reason, Jeep
has planned a series of checks and
services at fixed distance intervals and,
where provided, at fixed time intervals,
as described in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan.
Before each coupon however you always
need to pay attention to what is written
in the Scheduled Servicing Plan (e.g.
periodically check liquid levels, tire
pressure, etc.).
The Scheduled Servicing is carried out
by the Jeep Assistance Network at
pre-set times. If, during each operation,
in addition to the ones scheduled, the
need arises for further replacements or
repairs, these may be carried out with the
owner's explicit agreement only. If your
car is used frequently for towing, the
interval between one scheduled servicing
operation and the next should be
reduced.
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
interventions are set out by the
Manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the
warranty. It is advisable to inform aJeep Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the
next service.
PERIODIC CHECKS
Every1,000km or before long trips
check and, if necessary, top up:
engine coolant level;brake fluid level;windscreen washer fluid level;tyre inflation pressure and condition;operation of lighting system
(headlights, direction indicators, hazard
warning lights, etc.);
operation of screen washer/wiper
system and positioning/wear of
windscreen/rear window wiper blades.
Every3,000km, check and top up if
required: engine oil level.
DEMANDING USE OF THE CAR
If the vehicle is used in one of the
following conditions:
Law enforcement (or security service),
taxi service
towing a trailer or caravan;dusty roads;short, repeated journeys (less than
7-8 km) at sub-zero outside
temperatures;
engine often idling or driving long
distances at low speeds or long periods
of inactivity;the following checks must be carried out
more often than indicated in the
Scheduled Service Plan:
check front disc brake pad condition
and wear;
check cleanliness of bonnet and
luggage compartment locks, cleanliness
and lubrication of linkage;
visually inspect conditions of: engine,
gearbox, transmission, pipes and hoses
(exhaust/fuel system/brakes) and rubber
elements (gaiters/sleeves/bushes, etc.);
check battery charge and battery fluid
level (electrolyte);
visually inspect conditions of the
accessory drive belts;
check and, if necessary, change
engine oil and replace oil filter;
check and, if necessary, replace pollen
filter;
check and, if necessary, replace air
cleaner.
