This consists of an instant-inflating bag contained in a
special compartment in the centre of the steering
wheel fig. 109.
FRONT AIRBAG PASSENGER'S SIDE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This consists of an instantly inflating bag contained in
a special compartment in the dashboard: this bag
has a larger volume than the driver's.fig. 110WARNING
SEVERE DANGER: Do not put cradle
seat
s facing backwards on the front seat
if the front passenger airbag is enabled.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the child. Always
deactivate the passenger 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 mandatory by
law, the airbag should be immediately
reactivated when children are no longer carried
to ensure better protection for adults.

MANUAL DEACTIVATION OF
PASSENGER'S FRONT AIRBAG AND SIDE
BAG
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Whenever a child needs to be carried on the front
seat, the passenger's front airbag and side bags
(for versions/markets where provided) can be
deactivated.
The warning light
on the instrument panel stays
on until the passenger's front airbag and side bags
(for versions/markets where provided) are
reactivated.
IMPORTANT Refer to "Digital display" and
“Multifunction display” in the “Know your vehicle”
section to manually deactivate the passenger's front
airbag and side bags (for versions/markets, where
provided).
SIDE BAGS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
On some versions, the vehicle may be fitted with
driver and passenger's front side bags.
Side bags protect occupants from side-on crashes of
medium/high severity by placing the bag between
the occupant 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
instantaneously, 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
complement 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 occupants in the correct position and prevent
them from being thrown out of the car by a very
violent collision.

SIDE BAGS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This consists of an instant inflating bag housed in the
front seat backrest fig. 111. It protects the chest
and the pelvis of the passengers in the event of a side
impact of medium-high severity.
IMPORTANT In the event of a side crash, the system
provides best protection if the passenger sits on
the seat in a correct position, thus allowing correct
side bag deployment.
IMPORTANT Do not wash the seats with water or
pressurised steam (wash by hand or at automatic
seat washing stations).
GENERAL WARNINGS
The front airbags and/or side bags (for versions/
markets, where provided) may be deployed if the
vehicle is subject to heavy knocks or accidentsinvolving the underbody area, such as for example
violent shocks against steps, kerbs or low obstacles,
or the vehicle falling into big potholes or depressions
in the road.
A small amount of dust will be released when the
airbags are deployed. The dust is not harmful and
does not indicate the beginning of a fire.
Furthermore, the surface of the deployed bag and
the interior of the vehicle may be covered in a dusty
residue: this may irritate your skin and eyes. Wash
with mild soap and water in the event of exposure.
Should an accident occur in which any of the safety
devices are activated, take the vehicle to a Fiat
Dealership to have the activated devices replaced and
to have the whole system checked.
Every control, repair and replacement operation
concerning the airbags must be carried out only at
Fiat Dealerships.
If you are having the vehicle scrapped, have the airbag
system deactivated at a Fiat Dealership first. If the
vehicle changes ownership, 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".
Pretensioners, front airbags and front side bags are
deployed differently according to the type of
collision. Non-deployment of one of these devices
does not therefore indicate a system fault.
