2010 FIAT PUNTO EVO seat heat

The fabric upholstery of your car is designed
to withstand normal wear and tear for
a long time. Some precautions are howev-
er needed. Avoid prolonged rubbing against cloth-
ing accessories, such as metal buckles, bosses,
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 up-
holstery.

PRETENSIONERS
To increase the efficiency of the seat belts, the car is fit-
ted with front pretensioners. These devices, in the event
of a violent crash, rewind the seat belts by a few cen-
timetres. In this way, they ensure that the seat belt adheres
perfectly to the wearer before the restraining action be-
gins.
The seat belt reel locks to indicate that the pretension-
ers have intervened; the seat belt cannot be drawn back
up even when guiding it manually.
This car is equipped with a second pretensioner (in the
kick plate area). Its activation is signalled by the shorten-
ing of the metal cable.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest degree of protection
from the action of the pretensioning device, wear the seat
so it fits snugly over the chest and hips.
A slight amount of smoke may be detected during opera-
tion of the pretensioners. This smoke is not harmful and
does not indicate a fire.
The pretensioner does not require any maintenance or lu-
brication.
Anything that modifies its original conditions invalidates its
efficiency.
If, due to unusual natural events (floods, sea storms, etc.),
the device has been affected by water and mud, it must
be replaced.

The pretensioner can be used only once.
Go to a Fiat Dealership to have it replaced
after it has been deployed. Consult the label in
the glove box to check the status of the preten-
sioners. Go to a Fiat Dealership to have the de-
vice replaced when the expiration date ap-
proaches.
WARNING
Operations which lead to knocks, vibrations
or localised heating (over 100°C for a max-
imum of 6 hours) in the area around the
pretensioners may cause damage or trigger them.
These devices are not affected by vibrations caused
by irregularities of the road surface or low obsta-
cles such as kerbs, etc. Contact a Fiat Dealership
for any assistance.
LOAD LIMITERS
To increase passenger safety, the front seat belt reels con-
tain a load limiter which controls the force acting on the
chest and shoulders during the belt restraining action in
the event of a head-on collision.
