To deactivate the passen-
ger’s front air bag and the
side bag (where provided), refer to
“”Multifunctional display” paragraph
in the “Dashboard and controls”
chapter.
WARNING
MANUAL DEACTIVATION OF
PASSENGER’S FRONT AIRBAG
AND SIDE BAG
(where provided)
Should it be absolutely necessary to car-
ry a child on the front seat, the passenger’s
front air bag and the Side Bag (where pro-
vided) can be deactivated.
The instrument panel warning light
“ill
stay on glowing steadily until reactivat-
ing the passenger’s front air bag and the
Side Bag (where provided).
SIDE AIRBAGS (Side
bags - Window bags)
(where provided)
SIDE BAGS fig. 19
The side bags are arranged in the front
seat backrests and inflate instantly to pro-
tect the chest of occupants in case of
medium-to-high severity crashes.
Side bags are not a replacement of but
complementary to the belts, which you
are recommended to always wear, as
specified by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
IMPORTANT In the event of side crash,
you can obtain the best protection by the
system keeping a correct position on the
seat, allowing thus a correct window bag
unfolding.
Do not cover the backrest of
the front seats with covers
which are not suitable for use with
side bags.
WARNING
Lineaccessori Fiat has covers suitable for
seats with side bags.
WINDOW BAGS fig. 20
The window bags are accommodated in
the side roof upholstery and are covered
by special trimming. They protect the head
of front and rear occupants in case of side
collisions. The bags are very large.

SAFETY
IMPORTANT The front air bags and/or
side bags may be deployed if the car is sub-
ject to heavy knocks or accidents involv-
ing the underbody area, such as for ex-
ample violent shocks, against steps, kerbs
or low obstacles, falling of the car in big
holes or sags in the road.
IMPORTANT A small amount of dust will
be released when the airbags are de-
ployed. The dust is not harmful and does
not indicate the beginning of a fire. Fur-
thermore, the surface of the deployed bag
and the interior of the car may be covered
in a dusty residue: This dust may irritate
the skin and the eyes. Wash with mild
soap and water in the event of exposure.
The airbag system expires after 14 years
(charge) and 10 years (clock contact). Go
to a Fiat Dealership to have the devices
replaced when the expiration date ap-
proaches.
IMPORTANT Should an accident occur in
which any of the safety devices is activat-
ed, take the car to a Fiat Dealership to
have the devices activated replaced and to
have the system checked.
Every control, repair and replacement op-
erations concerning the air bags must on-
ly be carried out c/o Fiat Dealership.If you are having the car scrapped, have
the air bag system deactivated at a Fiat
Dealership first. If the car changes own-
ership, the new owner must be informed
of the method of use of air bags and the
above warnings and also be given this
“Owner‘s Handbook”.
IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front airbags
and front side bags are deployed differ-
ently according to the type of collision.
Non deployment of one of the devices
does not therefore indicate a system fault.
Do not rest your head, arms
or elbows on the door, on
the windows and in the window bag
area to prevent injury in case of de-
ployment.
WARNING
Never lean head, arms and
elbows out of window.
WARNING
If when turning the key to
MAR the warning light
¬does not turn on or stays on whilst
driving (together with the message in
the multifunctional display, where
provided), a failure may have oc-
curred in the restraint systems. In this
case the air bags or pretensioners
may not be deployed after an impact
or, in a minor number of cases, they
may be deployed accidentally. Con-
tact a Fiat Dealership immediately to
have the system checked.
WARNING
GENERAL WARNINGS
Do not cover the backrest of
the front seats with covers
which are not suitable for use with
side bags.
WARNING
Always drive holding your
hands on the steering wheel
rim so that the airbag can inflate
freely in the case of need. Do not dri-
ve with your body bent forward. Keep
your back straight against the back
rest.

SAFETY
Have the airbag system
checked by a Fiat Dealership
if the car was stolen, if theft was at-
tempted, or if the car was subjected
to vandalism or flooding.
WARNING
Airbags may be deployed if
another vehicle crashes if the
key is inserted and at MAR also if the
engine is not running and the car is
stationary. For this reason, children
must never sit on the front seat, even
if the car is not moving. On the oth-
er hand, if the key is inserted and at
STOP, none of the safety devices
(airbag or pretensioners) will be de-
ployed in a collision. Non deployment
of the devices in this case does not in-
dicate a system fault.
WARNING
Do not travel carrying ob-
jects in your lap, in front of
your chest or between your lips (pipe,
pencils, etc.): they could cause severe
injury if the airbag is deployed.
WARNING
When the ignition key is
turned to MAR, the warning
light
“(with passenger’s front air
bag active) turns on and flashes for
few seconds to remind that passen-
ger’s air bag will be deployed in a
crash, after which it should go off.
WARNING
Do not wash the seats with
water or steam under pres-
sure (by hand or in automatic wash-
ing station for seats).
WARNING
Front air bag deployment
takes place at a higher level
of impact than the pretensioners. For
collisions in the range between the
two thresholds, it is normal for only
the pretensioners to be activated.
WARNING
Do not attach rigid objects
to the coat hooks and sup-
port handles.
WARNING
An airbag is not a replace-
ment for the seat belts but
increases their efficiency. Further-
more, since front air bags are not de-
ployed in low speed collisions, side
collisions, rear-end shunts or roll-
overs, the passengers are only pro-
tected by the seat belts which must
be fastened at all times.

PARKING THE VEHICLE
Proceed as follows:
❒Stop the engine and engage the hand-
brake;
❒Engage a gear (on a slope, engage first
gear if the vehicle is faced uphill or re-
verse if it is faced downhill) and leave
the wheels steered.
If the car is parked on a steep slope, it is
further advisable to block the wheels with
a wedge or stone. Avoid parking for a long
time with one wheel on the pavement or
steered against the kerb. Do not leave the
key in the ignition switch at MARto pre-
vent draining the battery. Always remove
the key when you leave the car.
HANDBRAKE
The handbrake lever is located between
the two front seats.
Pull the lever upwards to operate the
handbrake.
Four or five notches are normally suffi-
cient to lock the car on flat terrain, while
nine or ten may be necessary on a steep
slope with the car loaded.
IMPORTANT If this is not the case, con-
tact Fiat Dealership to have the handbrake
adjusted.When the handbrake lever is pulled up
and the ignition key is at MAR, the in-
strument panel warning light
xwill turn
on.
Proceed as follows to release the hand-
brake:
❒slightly lift the handbrake and press re-
lease button A-fig. 1;
❒hold the button Apressed and lower
the lever; the warning light xon the
instrument panel will go out.
Press the brake pedal when carrying out
this operation to prevent the car from
moving accidentally.
IMPORTANT if the handbrake lever tends
to reach end of stroke (groove on the
central tunnel), go to a Fiat dealership to
have the handbrake adjusted correctly.fig. 1F0H0149m
Never leave children unat-
tended in the car. Always re-
move the ignition key when leaving
the car and take it out with you.

INTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not
trapped under the mats (due to water
dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.) which
could cause oxidisation of the sheet met-
al.
CLEANING SEATS AND FABRIC
PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacu-
um cleaner. It is advisable to use a moist
brush on velvet upholstery.
Rub the seats with a sponge moistened
with a solution of water and neutral de-
tergent.
LEATHER SEATS
Remove dry dirt with a moist chamois
leather or cloth without pressing too hard.
Remove stains of liquid or grease with a
dry absorbing cloth. Do not rub. Then
wipe with a soft cloth or chamois leather
dipped in water and mild soap.
Use specific products for persistent stains
paying attention to instructions for use.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol. Make
sure that the products used do not con-
tain alcohol or derivates, even in low con-
centrations. INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior parts with
a moist cloth and a solution of water and
mild soap. Use specific products for clean-
ing plastic, without solvents and specifically
designed to prevent damage to the ap-
pearance and colour of the treated parts
to remove grease and tough stains.
IMPORTANT Never use spirit or petro-
leum to clean the instrument panel trans-
parent cover or other plastic parts.
Do not keep aerosol cans in
the car: risk of explosion.
Aerosol cans must not be exposed to
a temperature exceeding 50°C. When
the vehicle is exposed to sunlight, in-
ner temperature can greatly exceed
this value.
WARNING
The fabric upholstery of your
car is designed to withstand
the normal wear and tear of
your car for a long time.
Some precautions are however need-
ed. Avoid prolonged rubbing against
clothing accessories, such as metal
buckles, Velcro strips and the like,
which by applying a high pressure on
the fabric in a small area could cause
the breakage of some threads and
damage the upholstery.
LEATHER STEERING
WHEEL/GEAR KNOB
These components must be cleaned with
mild soap and water only. Never use spir-
it and/or alcohol based products. Read
the product label carefully before using
specific products for cleaning the interi-
ors: make sure the product does not con-
tain alcohol or alcohol based substances.
If window cleaner accidentally drips onto
the steering wheel or gear lever knob,
wipe away immediately and then wash the
concerned area with mild soap and water.
IMPORTANT Be careful when arranging
a steering wheel lock device, where ap-
plicable, to prevent damaging the leather
upholstery by rubbing.
