Fault
84)
Have the cause of the fault remedied by
a Jeep Dealership.
BRAKE ASSIST
If brake pedal is depressed quickly and
forcefully, maximum brake force is
automatically applied. Operation of
brake assist might become apparent by a
pulse in the brake pedal and a greater
resistance when depressing the brake
pedal. Maintain steady pressure on
the brake pedal as long as full braking
is required. Maximum brake force is
automatically reduced when brake pedal
is released.
DSC (Dynamic Stability Control)
SYSTEM AND TSC (Traction
Control System)
79) 80) 81) 82) 83)
Dynamic Stability Control improves
driving stability when necessary,
regardless of the type of road surface or
tyre grip
As soon as the vehicle starts to swerve
(understeer / oversteer), engine output
is reduced and the wheels are braked
individually.
Dynamic Stability Control operates in
combination with the Traction Control
system. It prevents the driven wheels
from spinning.
The Traction Control system is a
component of the Dynamic Stability
Control.
The Traction Control system improves
driving stability when necessary,
regardless of the type of road surface or
tyre grip, by preventing the driven wheels
from spinning.
As soon as the driven wheels starts to
spin, engine output is reduced and the
wheel spinning the most is braked
individually. This considerably improves
the driving stability of the vehicle on
slippery road surfaces.
Dynamic Stability Control and the
Traction Control system are operational
after each engine start as soon as the
control indicator
extinguishes
When Dynamic Stability Control or the
Traction Control system operates,
flashes.
On some occasions, e.g. after
disconnecting the conventional battery,
the control indicator
may illuminate
during some seconds accompanied by a
message in the instrument panel display.
This may be caused by the reset of the
steering angle sensor.
Deactivation
The Traction Control system can be
deactivated in the instrument panel
display.
Deactivation is confirmed by a message
in the instrument panel display.
Fault
If there is a fault in the system, the
control indicator
illuminates
continuously, a message appears in
the instrument panel display and a
warning chime sounds. The system is not
operational. Have the cause of the fault
remedied by a Jeep Dealership.
HSA (Hill Start Assist) SYSTEM
(Where provided)
This system keeps the vehicle briefly
stationary (for approximately 2 seconds)
when making a hill start, while you
transfer your foot from the brake pedal to
the accelerator pedal.
The system is only active when:
the vehicle is completely stationary,
with your foot on the brake pedal
