Due to its different anchoring system,
an Isofix child restraint must be an-
chored to the proper lower metal rings
A-fig. 15, between rear seat back and
cushion. The upper belt (provided
with the child restrain) must be then
secured to ring D-fig. 16set in the
boot at child’s seat level.

It is possible to have a mixed assem-
bly of the traditional child seats and
the Universal Isofix ones.
Remember that in case of Universal
Isofix child restrain systems, you can
only use all those seats approved with
the marking ECE R44/03 “Universal
Isofix”.
The Universal Isofix “Duo Plus” child
seat and the special “G 0/1” seat are
available from Lineaccessori Fiat.
For any further details on installa-
tion/use, refer to the instruction man-
ual for the child seat.

FRONT AIRBAGS
The car is provided with front airbags
for the driver and passenger and win-
dow bags (head protection system). It
may be provided with optional front
side bags.
The front driver / passenger air bags
have been designed to protect the oc-
cupants in the event of head-on
crashes of medium-high severity, by
placing the cushion between the oc-
cupant and the steering wheel or
dashboard.
Front air bags are designed to protect
car’s occupants in front crashes and
therefore non-activation in other types
of collisions (side collisions, rear
shunts, roll-overs, etc.) is not a system
malfunction.
An electronic control unit will make
the bag inflate in the event of a frontal
crash.
The bag will inflate instantaneously
placing itself between the front occu-
pant’s body and the structures which
could cause injury. It will deflate im-
mediately afterwards.
Driver and passenger front airbags are
not a replacement of but complemen-
tary to the belts, which you are rec-
ommended to always wear, as speci-
fied by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.In the event of a collision, a person
not wearing a seat belt may be thrown
forward and con into contact with the
bag before it has fully opened. The
protection offered by the cushion is
reduced in such a case.
Front air bag may not be activated in
the following situations:
❒in collisions against highly de-
formable objects not affecting the
car front surface (e.g. bumper col-
lision against guard rail, etc.);
❒jamming of the car underneath
other vehicles or protective barri-
ers (e.g. underneath a truck or a
guard rail); in this case, the bags
would offer no additional protec-
tion with respect to the seat belt
and their deployment is unneces-
sary. No deployment in such cases
is consequently not the sign of a
fault.
The front airbags (driver and passen-
ger) are designed and calibrated to
protect front seat occupants who are
wearing seat belts. The volume of
front air bags at max. inflation fills
most of the space between the steer-
ing wheel and the driver and between
the dashboard and the passenger.FRONT AIR BAG ON DRIVER’S
SIDE, fig. 17
It consists of an instant-inflating cush-
ion contained in a special recess in the
centre of the steering wheel.

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 the Side Bag (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided) must
be deactivated.
The instrument panel warning light
“will stay on glowing steadily until
reactivating the passenger’s front air
bag and the side bag (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided).
SIDE BAGS
(Side bags -
Window bags)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
SIDE BAGS fig. 19
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The side bags are arranged in the
front seat backrests and inflate in-
stantly to protect the chest of occu-
pants in case of medium-to-high
severity crashes.
To deactivate the passen-
ger’s front air bag and the
side bag (for versions/markets,
where provided), refer to ““Multi-
functional display” paragraph in
the “Dashboard and controls”
chapter.
WARNING
Do not cover the backrest
of the front seats with cov-
ers which are not suitable for use
with side bags.

It is formed by two “curtain” window
bags are located behind the side roof
upholstery and are covered by special
trimming. They were designed to pro-
tect the head of front and rear pas-
sengers in case of side collisions,
thanks to the wide cushion inflation
surface. Lancia Dealership has covers suitable
for seats with side bags.

SAFETY
Always drive holding your
hands on the steering
wheel rim so that the airbag can
inflate freely in the case of need.
Do not drive with your body bent
forward. Keep your back straight
against the back rest. Have the
airbag system checked by a Lan-
cia Dealership if the car was
stolen, if theft was attempted, or if
the car was subjected to vandalism
or flooding.
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
The airbag deployment
threshold is higher than
that of the pretensioners. For col-
lisions in the range between the
two thresholds, it is normal for
only the pretensioners to be acti-
vated.
WARNING
When the key is turned to
MAR warning light
“(with passenger front airbag acti-
vated) will blink for a few seconds
to remind you that the airbag will
be deployed in the event of a colli-
sion after which it should go out.
WARNING
Do not wash the seats
with pressurised water or
steam (by hand or in automatic
seat washing stations).
WARNING
An airbag is not a replace-
ment for the seat belts but
increases their efficiency. Further-
more, since front airbags are not
deployed in low speed collisions,
side collisions, rear-end shunts or
roll-overs, the occupants are only
protected by the seat belts which
must be fastened at all times.
WARNING
Do not attach rigid objects
to the coat hooks and sup-
port handles.
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 other hand, if the
key is inserted and at STOP, none
of the safety devices (airbag or
pretensioners) will be deployed in
a collision. Non deployment of the
devices in this case does not indi-
cate a system fault.

CONTAINING
RUNNING COSTS
Here are some suggestions which may
help you to keep the running costs of
your vehicle down and lower the
amount of toxic emissions released
into the atmosphere.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried
out in accordance with the “Service
schedule”.
Ty r e s
Check tyre pressure regularly at least
once every four weeks: excessively low
pressure will increase consumption
because rolling resistance will be
higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded
boot. The weight of the car (especially
when driving in town) and its trim
greatly affects consumption and sta-
bility.Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack
from the roof after use. These acces-
sories decrease aerodynamic penetra-
tion of the car and have a negative ef-
fect on consumption. It is better to use
a trailer to transport particularly
bulky objects.
Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the
amount of time needed. Rear heated
window, additional headlights, wind-
screen wipers and heater fan need a
considerable amount of energy, there-
fore increasing the requirement of
current increases fuel consumption
(up to +25% in the urban cycle).
Climate control
The climate control system requires
higher fuel consumption (up to +20%
in average): use the air vents when the
external temperature allows to.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified aerodynamic
items may adversely affect air drag
and fuel consumption levels.DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine up with the
car standing: the engine warms up
very slowly in these conditions, in-
creasing consumption and emissions.
It is advisable to start off immediately
and slowly keeping the engine speed
down: the engine will warm up much
faster this way.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when starting at
traffic lights or before stopping the
engine. The latter action, like dou-
bling the clutch, is unnecessary and
causes increase of consumption and
pollution.
Gear selection
Use a higher gear as soon as traffic
and road conditions allow. Using a
low gear for faster acceleration will in-
crease consumption.
In the same way improper use of a
high gear increases consumption,
emissions an engine wear.

STARTING
AND DRIVING
Top speed
Fuel consumption considerably in-
creases as speed increases. Keep your
speed as even as possible, avoiding
unnecessary braking and acceleration
which cause excessive fuel consump-
tion and increase emissions.
Acceleration
Sudden acceleration has a very nega-
tive effect on consumptions and emis-
sions: accelerate gradually and do not
go over the maximum torque ratio.CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short distances and frequent cold
start-ups will prevent the engine from
reaching optimal running tempera-
ture. Consequently, both consumption
(from +15 to +30% on urban cycle )
and emissions will increase.
Traffic and road conditions
Rather high consumption is caused by
heavy traffic, for instance when trav-
elling in a queue with frequent use of
low gears or in cities with many traf-
fic lights. Mountain and rough roads
also have a negative effect on con-
sumption.
Traffic hold-ups
During prolonged hold-ups (level
crossings) the engine should be
switched off.TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT NOTES
The car must be provided with a
type-approved tow hitch and ade-
quate electric system to tow caravans
or trailers. Installation must be per-
formed by specialised personnel who
will issue the required papers for trav-
elling on roads.
Install any specific and/or additional
rearview mirrors as specified by the
Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, the
braking spaces increase and overtak-
ing takes longer depending on the
overall weight.
Engage a low gear when driving
downhill, rather than constantly us-
ing the brake.
