Warning Light/Symbol What it means
ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL (ETC) FAILURE
(where provided)
This symbol will light up to indicate a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system. If the fault is
detected with the car running, the symbol will light up with a fixed or blinking light according to the fault type. Turn
the ignition device with the car at a standstill and with the automatic transmission in position P (Park). The symbol
must go off. If the symbol stays on with the car running, it can still be driven but you must seek the assistance of a
Jeep Dealership as soon as possible.
NOTE This symbol may turn on if the accelerator and brake pedals are pressed at the same time.
Intervene promptly if the symbol keeps blinking with the engine running. You may experience reduced engine
performance, an elevated/rough idle, or engine stall and your car may require towing. The symbol appears when the
ignition device is turned to the ENGINE position and stays on for a few instance during the bulb test. If it does not
come on when starting contact a Jeep Dealership.
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
This symbol will light up to warn of an overheated engine condition. If the engine coolant temperature is too high, this
symbol will light up and an acoustic warning will sound.
If the symbol appears while driving, pull over and stop the engine. If the A/C system is on, turn it off. Furthermore,
put the transmission in neutral and idle the engine. If the temperature does not return to normal, turn off the engine
immediately and contact a Jeep Dealership.
Refer to the "Engine overheating" chapter in the "In An Emergency" section for more information.
BONNET NOT PROPERLY SHUT
The symbol switches on when the engine bonnet is not properly shut. A buzzer is heard when the bonnet is open and
the car is moving. Close the bonnet properly.
LIFTGATE NOT PROPERLY SHUT
The symbol switches on when the liftgate is not properly shut. A buzzer is heard with open liftgate and car moving.
Close the liftgate correctly.
LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
This symbol will illuminate to indicate low engine oil pressure. If the symbol switches on while driving, stop the car
immediately, shut off the engine as soon as possible, and contact a Jeep Dealership. The symbol will appear together
with an acoustic signal.

WARNING Do not use the car until the failure has been solved. The switching on of the symbol does not show the
quantity of oil in the engine: the oil level must be checked manually.
EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE
