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 appear
on the instrument panel display.
Tip the gear lever forwards, towards
symbol – or backwards, towards
symbol
+, to shift gears.
Deactivation
To deactivate the sequential driving mode,
bring the gear lever back in position D
(Drive) ("automatic" drive mode).
WARNINGS
Do not downshift on slippery surfaces: the
drive wheels might lose grip with resulting
risk of the car slipping. This could cause
accidents or personal injuries.
To select the correct gear for maximum
deceleration (engine brake), simply keep
the gear lever pressed forward, towards
the indication – on the panel.
The vehicle will keep the gear selected
by the driver until the safety conditions
allow it. This means, for example, that the
system will try to prevent the engine from
switching off, automatically downshifting if
the engine speed is too low.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
"LIMP HOME MODE"
Transmission function is monitored
electronically for abnormal conditions.
If a condition that might damage the
transmission is detected, the "limp home"
mode is activated.
In this condition, regardless of the gear
selected, the transmission remains in
3
rd gear, unless car speed is not high: in
this case the 5
th
gear will be engaged,
when speed decreases the 3
rd
gear will
be engaged. Positions P ("Park"), R
(Reverse) and N (Neutral) still work.
The symbol
might be shown on the
instrument panel display.
In the event of "limp home" mode
immediately contact the nearest Jeep
Dealership.
