of the sun roof. Improper use of the roof can
be dangerous. Before and during operation,
always check that no one is exposed to the
risk of being injured by the moving sun roof or
by objects getting caught or hit by it .
ANTI-PINCH SAFETY DEVICE
The sun roof has an anti-pinch safety system
capable of detecting the presence of an obstacle
whilst the roof is closing: if this happens, the system
intervenes and the movement of the glass is
immediately reversed.

SIDE AIRBAGS (Side bag - Window
bag)The car is fitted with front side bags for driver and
passenger, protecting the chest/pelvis, and window
bags for protecting front and rear passengers’
heads.
Side airbags protect occupants from side impacts of
medium/high severity by placing the bag between
the occupant and the internal parts of the side
structure of the car.
Non-activation of side bags in other types of
collisions (frontal impacts, rear shunts, roll-overs,
etc...) is not an indication of system malfunction.
In the event of a side impact, an electronic control
unit triggers the inflation of the bag if required.
The cushion immediately inflates, placing itself
between the occupant's body and structures that
could cause injuries. Immediately after, the cushion
deflates.
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.
SIDE BAGS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The side bags comprises two types of instantly
inflating bags arranged in the front seat backrests
fig. 134. They are designed to protect the chest and
the pelvis of occupants in case of medium-to-high
severity side impacts.WINDOW BAG
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This comprises two “curtain” window bags located
behind the side roof cover and are covered by
special trim fig. 135. They are designed to protect
the head of front and rear passengers in the event
of side impacts, thanks to the wide cushion inflation
surface.
The airbags are not deployed in the event of
low-severity side impacts (for which the retaining
action of the seat belts is sufficient).
For this reason, the seat belt must be worn at all
times. In the case of side impacts, the seat belts
hold occupants in the correct position and prevent
them from being thrown out of the car by a very
violent collision.

WARNING
Press the clutch pedal fully to change
gears correctly. It is therefore essential
that there is nothing under the pedals: make
sure the mats are lying flat and do not get
in the way of the pedals.Do not drive with your hand resting on
the gear lever as the force exerted,
even if slight , could lead over time to
premature wear on the gearbox internal
components
FUEL SAVINGSHere are some useful tips to save fuel and minimise
harmful emissions of CO
2and other pollutants
(nitric oxides, unburnt hydrocarbons, fine dusts
etc…).
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
The general factors that affect fuel consumption are
listed below.
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out in
accordance with the “Scheduled Servicing Plan”.
Ty r e s
Check the pressure of the tyres routinely at an
interval of no more than 4 weeks: if the pressure is
too low, consumption levels increase as resistance
to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight
of the car (especially when driving in town) and
its ride greatly affects consumption and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof
after use. These accessories lower aerodynamic
penetration and adversely affect consumption
