WARNING
183) Pay the utmost attention while
driving at all times and be always ready to
press the brakes if needed.
184) The system is an aid for the driver,
who must always pay full attention while
driving. The responsibility always rests
with the driver, who must take into
account the traffic conditions in order to
drive in complete safety. The driver must
always maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle in front.
185) The device is not activated in
presence of pedestrians, oncoming
vehicles in the opposite direction of travel
or moving in the crosswise direction and
stationary objects (e.g. a vehicle standing
in a queue or a broken down vehicle).
186) The device cannot take account of
road, traffic and weather conditions and
conditions of poor visibility (e.g. fog).
187) The device does not always
fully recognise complicated driving
conditions which could cause incorrect or
non-existing determination of the safe
distance to be held.
188)
The device cannot apply the
maximum braking force: the car will not
be stopped completely.
189) The radar is provided with defrosting
system. For this reason, it can reach high
temperatures in some conditions. If you
need to operate in the zone surrounding
the sensor, wait for at least 30 seconds
from when the engine is switched off.
190) If any of the following malfunctions
occurs, do not use the system: following
an impact on the windscreen close to the
camera or on the front bumper; in case of
a brake lamp failure.
191) If the vehicle has undergone any
of the following modifications, do not
use the system: carrying long objects on
roof bars; towing; front end of the vehicle
modified (for example by adding long-
range headlamps or painting the front
bumper); obstructed radar.
192)
The complete driver attention
is always required while driving with
adaptive cruise control. The driver stays
fully in control of the vehicle because the
brake pedal, the accelerator pedal and
the button have priority over any
adaptive cruise control operation.
193) When the system is deactivated or
cancelled, the vehicle will no longer be
held at a stop and can start moving. Be
always prepared to manually apply the
brake to hold the vehicle stationary. Do
not leave the vehicle while it is being
held at a stop by adaptive cruise control.
Always move the PRND command to park
position P and switch off the ignition
before leaving the vehicle.
194) The system's automatic brake force
does not permit hard braking and the
braking level may not be sufficient to
avoid a collision.
195) Do not use the adaptive cruise
control on steep hill roads.
196) The radar unit was aligned carefully
during manufacture. Therefore, in the
event of a frontend impact, do not use the
system. The front bumper may appear to
be intact, however the sensor behind may
be affected and react incorrectly. After
an accident, consult a Jeep Dealership to
verify and adjust the radar unit position.
197) The usage of a license plate support
on the front bumper may affect the proper
radar unit functionality. When using a
license plate support, follow the markings
and indications on the front bumper.
IMPORTANT
62) The system may have limited
operation or not work at all in weather
conditions such as: heavy rain, hail, thick
fog, heavy snow.
63) The section of the bumper area in
front the sensor or the radar sensor
itself must not be covered with stickers,
auxiliary headlights or any other object.
64)
Operation can be adversely affected
by any structural change made to the
vehicle, such as a modification to the
front geometry, tyre change, or a heavier
than standard load of the vehicle.
65) Incorrect repairs made on the front
part of the car (e.g. bumper, chassis) may
alter the position of the radar sensor, and
adversely affect its operation. Go to a
Jeep Dealership for any operation of this
type.
66) Do not tamper with or carry out any
intervention on the radar sensor or on the
camera on the windscreen glass. In the
event of a sensor failure, contact a Jeep
Dealership.
67) Do not wash with high-pressure jets
in the bumper lower area: in particular
do not operate on the system's electrical
connector. Do not use solvents or abrasive
paste.
68) Be careful in case of repairs and
painting in the zone around the sensor. In
