The buzzer can be deactivated (until the
the next engine stop) as follows:
❒fasten the driver’s seat belt.
❒turn the ignition key to MAR
❒wait for over 20 seconds and then re-
lease at least one of the seat belts.
For permanent deactivation, contact Fiat

On versions fitted with reconfigurable
multifunction display (Comfort) it is pos-
sible to reset the S.B.R. system only
through the set-up menu (see “Warning
lights and messages” section at paragraph
“Unfastened seat belts”).
For the other versions system can be re-
set only by Fiat Dealership.
FRONT SEAT BELT HEIGHT
ADJUSTMENT (where provided)
Always adjust the height of the seat belt
to fit the person wearing it. This precau-
tion could greatly reduce the risk of injury
in case of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when the
belt passes half way between the end of
the shoulder and the neck.
To adjust the seat belt, raise or lower
knob A-fig. 4of the locking mechanism,
moving at the same time the loop Bto the
best of the available positions.USING THE CENTRAL SEAT
BELT (where provided)
The seat belt has two webbings and a dou-
ble buckle.
To use the seat belt, take tongues Hand
P-fig. 5from their seats in the reel com-
partment and pull the seat belt sliding the
webbing carefully without twisting or jerk-
ing it, then fasten the tongue G-fig. 6in
buckle Lwith button M.
Remember that in the event
of a violent collision, back
seat passengers not wearing seat belts
also represent a serious danger for
the front seat passengers.
WARNING
Make the height adjustment
when the car is stationary.
WARNING
After adjustment, always
check that the slider is an-
chored in one of the positions pro-
vided. To do this, with the button re-
leased, exert a further pressure to al-
low the anchor device to catch if re-
lease did not take place at one of the
preset positions.

CORRECT USE
OF THE CAR
Do not exceed the speed limits of the
country you are driving in. In any case do
not exceed 100 km/h.
The ABS system with which
the car may be fitted does
not control the trailer braking system.
Great care should therefore be taken
when driving on slippery road sur-
faces.
Under no circumstances
should the vehicle brake sys-
tem be altered to control the trailer
brake. The trailer braking system
must be fully independent of the ve-
hicle’s hydraulic system.
WARNING
WARNING
INSTALLING THE TOW HOOK
The towing device should be fastened to
the body by specialised personnel ac-
cording to any additional and/or integra-
tive information supplied by the Manufac-
turer of the device.
The towing device must meet current reg-
ulations with reference to 94/20/EC Di-
rective and subsequent amendments.
For any version the towing device used
must match the towable weight of the ve-
hicle on which it is to be installed.
For the electric connection a unified con-
nector should be used which is generally
placed on a special bracket normally fas-
tened to the towing device, and a special
ECU for external trailer light control shall
be installed on the car. For the electrical connection 7 or 13 pins
12VDC connection is to be used (CU-
NA/UNI and ISO/DIN Standards). Follow
the instructions provided by the car man-
ufacturer and/or the tow hitch manufac-
turer.
An electric brake should be supplied di-
rectly by the battery through a cable with
a cross section of no less than 2.5 mm
2.
IMPORTANT Electric brake or other de-
vice shall be used with running engine.
In addition to the electrical branches, the
car’s electric system can only be con-
nected to the supply cable for an electric
brake and to the cable for an internal light,
though not above 15W.
For connections use a preset control unit
with battery cable no less than 2.5 mm
2.
