Traditional child seats and Isofix child seats can be fitted
together.
An example of such a seat is shown in fig. 120. The Uni-
versal Isofix child seat covers weight group 1.
Specific Isofix systems are provided for the other weight
classes and may be used only if specifically designed, test-
ed and approved for use on this vehicle (see list attached
to the child seat).
Due to its different anchoring system, the child seat must
be attached to the dedicated lower metal rings A-fig. 121,
located between the backrest and rear cushion. After re-
moving the rear parcel shelf (if present), secure the up-
per belt (provided with the child seat) to ring B-fig. 122
(one on each side) located behind the rear seat backrest.
Remember that in case of Universal Isofix child seats, you
can use all seats approved with the marking ECE R44/03
“Universal Isofix”.The Universal Isofix “Duo Plus” child seat and the special
“Bimbo Fix” seat are available from Lineaccessori Fiat.
For any further details on installation/use, refer to the in-
struction manual for the child seat.
Fit the child seat when the vehicle is sta-
tionary. The child seat is correctly an-
chored to the brackets when you hear the click.
Follow the instructions for assembly, disassembly
and positioning that the child seat manufacturer
must supply.

INDEXFRONT AIRBAGS
The vehicle is fitted with front airbags for the driver and,
for versions/markets where provided, front airbags for
the passenger.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front driver/passenger airbags (for versions/markets
where provided) have been designed to protect the front-
seat occupants in the event of head-on crashes of medi-
um-high severity, by placing the bag between the occu-
pant and the steering wheel or dashboard.
Non-activation in other types of crash (side-on collisions,
rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) is therefore not a sign of sys-
tem malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the bag to inflate, if nec-
essary, in the event of a head-on crash.
The bag will inflate instantaneously, placing itself between
the front occupant’s body and the structures which could
cause injury. It will deflate immediately afterwards.
Front driver/passenger airbags (for versions/markets
where provided) are not a replacement for, but rather
a complement to, the seat belts, which should be worn
at all times as specified by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
In the event of an impact, someone not wearing a seat
belt could move forward and come into contact with a bag
which is still in the opening phase. The protection offered
by the bag is reduced in such a case. The front airbags may not be activated in the following
situations:❒head-on impacts against highly deformable objects that
do not affect the vehicle’s front surface (e.g. front wing
hitting the guard rail);
❒car getting wedged under other vehicles or protective
barriers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they could not provide any additional protection com-
pared with seat belts, so their activation would not be
worthwhile. In these cases, non-deployment of the airbag
does not necessarily indicate a system malfunction.
Do not apply stickers or other objects to
the steering wheel, the dashboard in the
passenger side airbag area and the seats. Do not
place objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the passen-
ger side dashboard because these could interfere
with the correct opening of the airbag and cause
severe injury to occupants.
WARNING
The front driver and passenger airbags are designed and
calibrated to best protect front-seat passengers wearing
seat belts.
The volume of the front airbags at maximum inflation fills
most of the space between the steering wheel and the
driver and between the dashboard and the passenger.

The airbags are not deployed in the event of small head-
on collisions (for which the withholding action of the seat
belts is sufficient). Seat belts must always be worn. In the
event of head-on collisions, they ensure the correct po-
sitioning of the occupant.
FRONT AIRBAG ON DRIVER’S SIDE fig. 123
This consists of an instant-inflating bag contained in a spe-
cial compartment in the centre of the steering wheel.
FRONT AIRBAG ON PASSENGER’S SIDE
fig. 124 (for versions/markets where provided)
This consists of an instant-inflating bag contained in a spe-
cial compartment in the dashboard: this bag has a larger
volume than that of the driver’s.
Do not put cradle seats facing backwards
on the front seat if the passenger airbag
is activated. Deployment of the airbag in
an accident could cause fatal injuries to
the child. Always deactivate the passen-
ger airbag when placing a child seat on the front
seat. Also, the passenger seat should be as far back
as possible to avoid contact between the child seat
and the dashboard. Although this is not manda-
tory by law, the airbag should be immediately re-
activated when children are no longer carried to
ensure better protection for adults.

INDEXMANUAL DEACTIVATION OF FRONT AND
SIDE PASSENGER AIRBAGS FOR HEAD AND
TORSE PROTECTION
(for versions/markets where provided)
On Doblò M1 versions, whenever a child needs to be car-
ried on the front seat, the passenger’s front airbags and
side bags for head and chest protection (for versions/mar-
kets where provided) can be deactivated.
The warning light
“on the instrument panel stays on un-
til the passenger’s front and side airbags for head and torse
protection (for versions/markets where provided) are re-
activated.
On Doblò Cargo versions with foldaway passenger seat
and split, revolving partition or ladder, the passenger front
airbags and the side bags for chest/head protection (for
versions/markets where provided) need to be deactivat-
ed if a load is carried with the seat folded down.
IMPORTANT To manually deactivate the passenger’s front
and side airbags for head and torse protection (for ver-
sions/markets where provided), refer to “Digital display”
and “Multifunction display” in the “Know your vehicle”
section.
SIDE BAGS
(for versions/markets where provided)
On some versions, the vehicle may be fitted with driver
and passenger front side airbags for head and torse pro-
tection.
Side bags protect occupants from side-on crashes of medi-
um/high severity by placing the bag between the occu-
pant and the internal parts of the side structure of the
vehicle.
Non-activation of side bags in other types of collisions
(head-on collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc...) is not
an indication of system malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the bags to inflate in
the event of a side-on collision. The bags inflate instanta-
neously, placing themselves between the occupant’s body
and the structures which could cause injury. They deflate
immediately afterwards.
Side bags are not a replacement of, but rather a comple-
ment to, seat belts, which you are recommended to wear
at all times, as specified by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
For this reason, the seat belt must be worn at all times.
In the case of side-on collisions, the seat belts hold occu-
pants in the correct position and prevent them from be-
ing thrown out of the car by a very violent collision.

INDEXDegraded engine oil should be replaced
as soon as possible after the warning light
comes on, and never more than 500 km after it
first comes on. Failure to change the oil within the
first 500 km may result in severe damage to the
engine and invalidate the warranty. Remember
that when the warning light comes on, it does not
mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if the
light flashes you do not need to top up the en-
gine oil.
WARNING
SEAT BELT NOT FASTENED (red)
The warning light on the panel comes on steadi-
ly when the vehicle is stationary and the driver’s
seat belt is not correctly fastened. It will flash, and
be accompanied by an audible warning, if the front seat belts
are not correctly fastened when the vehicle is moving.
The SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system’s audible warning
can be disabled only by a Fiat Dealership.
On some versions, the system can be reactivated from
the setup menu.
<
DOOR OPEN (red)
On certain versions, the warning light turns on
when one or more doors, the boot or the bon-
net are not properly closed.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
You will hear a warning sound if a door is open and the
vehicle is moving.
ENGINE OIL LOW
(red)
When turning the ignition key to MAR, the warn-
ing light turns on but it should go off after a few
seconds.
This warning light appears on the panel when the engine
oil level falls below the minimum recommended value.
Restore the correct engine oil level (see “Checking fluid
levels” in the “Servicing and maintenance” section).
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
