Jeep Wrangler: STARTING THE ENGINE — GASOLINE ENGINE (IF EQUIPPED) / Manual Transmission — If Equipped
Apply the parking brake, place the gear selector
in NEUTRAL, and press the clutch pedal before
starting the vehicle. This vehicle is equipped
with a clutch interlocking ignition system. It will
not start unless the clutch pedal is pressed to
the floor.
Four-Wheel Drive Models Only
In 4WD Low mode, if the vehicle is stalled, the
engine will start regardless of whether or not
the clutch pedal is pressed to the floor. This
feature enhances off-road performance by
allowing the vehicle to start when in 4WD Low
without having to press the clutch pedal. The
“4WD Low Indicator Light” will illuminate when
the transfer case has been shifted into this
mode.
Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat,
adjust both inside and outside mirrors, and
fasten your seat belts.

When exiting the vehicle, always remove
the key fob from the ignition and lock your
vehicle...
Start the vehicle with the gear selector in the
PARK position (vehicle can also be started in
NEUTRAL). Apply the brake before shifting to
any driving range...

A feature of the TCS, Brake Limited Differential
(BLD), functions similarly to a limited slip
differential and controls the wheel spin across a
driven axle...
