The inflation pressure varies, depending
on the temperature, of about 0.07 bar
every 6.5
°
C. This means that a decrease
of the external temperature corresponds
to a decrease of the tyre pressure. Always
adjust the tyre inflation pressure when
cold. This is defined as the tyre pressure
after at least 3 hours of vehicle inactivity
or travel of less than 1.6 km after the 3
hour interval.
The cold tyre inflation pressure must
not exceed the maximum pressure
indicated on the shoulder of the tyre: for
further details see the instructions in the
"Wheels" paragraph, in the "Technical
data" chapter.
Tyre pressure increases when the
vehicle is driven. This is normal, and no
adjustment of the pressure is required.
The TPMS signals the driver a possible
insufficient pressure if this falls below
the warning limit for any reason,
including the effects of low temperature
and normal loss of pressure from the
tyre.
The TPMS will stop indicating
insufficient tyre pressure when it is equal
to or greater than the prescribed cold
inflation pressure.
Therefore, if insufficient tyre pressure
is indicated ( warning light
on
instrument panel on), increase the
inflation pressure up to the prescribed
cold inflation value.
The system automatically updates and
warning light
switches off each time
the system receives the updated inflation
pressures. The vehicle might need to
be driven at a speed higher than about
25 km/h up to 20 minutes for the TPMS
to receive this information.
Operating example
Supposing that the prescribed cold
inflation pressure (i.e. vehicle stationary
for at least 3 hours) is 2.3 bar, if the
ambient temperature is 20
°
C and the
detected tyre pressure is 1.95 bar, a
temperature reduction of
−
7
°
C results in
a decrease in tyre pressure, bringing it to
approximately 1.65 bar.
This pressure is sufficiently low to
activate the warning light
.
Heating of tyres due to driving the
car may increase tyre pressure up to
approximately 1.95 bar, but the warning
light
will stay on. In this situation, the
warning light will switch off only after
the tyres are inflated to the prescribed
cold pressure value for the car.
WARNING The TPMS is designed for
original tyres and wheels. The pressures
and alarms reported by the TPMS are
defined according to the size of the
tyres fitted on the vehicle.Using spare
wheels of a different sizes, types and/or
designs from the original ones may cause
the system to operate incorrectly and
damage the sensors. Aftermarket fitted
wheels may damage the sensors. Using
aftermarket tyre sealants may damage
the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
sensor. If aftermarket tyre sealant has
been used, it is recommended to go to
a Jeep Dealership to have the sensors
checked. After checking or adjusting the
tyre pressure, always refit the valve
cap to prevent humidity and dirt from
entering. They could damage the Tyre
Pressure Monitoring System sensor.
INSUFFICIENT TYRE PRESSURE INDICATION
If an insufficient pressure value is
detected on one or more tyres, the
warning light
on the instrument panel
switches on and the dedicated messages
are shown on the display. The system
also highlights the tyre or tyres with
insufficient pressure graphically. An
acoustic signal is also emitted.
In this case, stop the car, check the
inflation pressure of each tyre and
inflate them to the correct cold inflation
