AIRBAGThe car is equipped with front airbags for driver and
passenger, driver's knee bag (for versions/markets,
where provided), seat-mounted side airbags for
driver's and passenger pelvis-chest-shoulder
protection (for versions/markets, where provided),
and window airbags for protecting the heads of front
and rear outer occupants.
The location of the airbags on the car is marked by
the writing "AIRBAG" in the middle of the steering
wheel, on the dashboard, on the side trim or on
a label placed next to the airbag deployment area.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front driver/passenger airbags and the driver's
knee bag (for versions/markets, where provided)
protect the front seat occupants in the event of
frontal impacts of medium/high severity, by placing
the bag between the occupant and the steering
wheel or dashboard.
Therefore non-deployment in other types of impacts
(side impacts, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) does not
indicate a system malfunction.
Front (driver and passenger) airbags are not a
replacement for, but are complementary to, the seat
belts, which you are recommended to always wear,
as specified by law in Europe and most non-European
countries.
In the event of impact, those not wearing a seat belt
are projected forwards and may come into contactwith the bag which is still inflating. The protection
offered by the bag is compromised in these
circumstances.
Front airbags may not activate in the following
situations:
❒frontal impacts against highly deformable objects
not involving the front surface of the car (e.g.
wing collision against guard rail, etc.);
❒underride impacts with other vehicles or wedging
under protective barriers (e.g. trucks or guard
rails).
Failure to activate in the conditions described above
is due to the fact that they may not provide any
additional protection compared with seat belts, so
their activation would be inappropriate.
In these cases, non-deployment of the airbag does
not necessarily indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering wheel, on the dashboard
in the passenger airbag area, on roof side trims
or on the seats. Never put objects (e.g. mobile
phones) on the passenger side of the dashboard
since they could interfere with correct inflation
of the passenger airbag and also cause serious
injur y to the passengers.

SIDE AIRBAGS: SEAT-MOUNTED SIDE
AIRBAG (for versions/markets, where
provided) AND WINDOW AIRBAG
To help increase occupants protection in the event of
certain side impact collisions, the car is equipped
with seat-mounted side airbags (for versions/
markets, where provided) and window airbag.
Seat-mounted side airbag
(for versions/markets, where provided)
These comprise two types of bags located in the
front seat backrests fig. 147 which protect the pelvis,
chest and shoulder area of the occupants in the
event of a side impact of medium/high severity.
Window bag
This comprises a "curtain" bag located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front and rear doors
fig. 148 covered by special trims.
It is designed to protect the head of front and rear
occupants in the event of a side impact, thanks
to the wide cushion inflation surface.
The deployment of seat-mounted side airbags in the
event of side impacts of low severity is not required.
In the event of a side impact, the system provides
best protection if the passenger sits on the seat in a
correct position, thus allowing correct window
bag deployment.
IMPORTANT Do not affix rigid objects to the
garment hooks or support handles.IMPORTANT Do not rest your head, arms or elbows
on the door, windows or the area in which the
window bag is located to avoid possible injury during
airbag inflation.

❒take the wrench A fig. 156 and loosen the fixing
studs by about one turn. For versions with alloy
rims, shake the car to facilitate detachment of the
rim from the wheel hub;
❒take the wedge A from the tool box and open it as
shown in the diagram in fig. 157;❒place the wedge behind the wheel diagonally
opposite the one to be replaced (see fig. 158) to
prevent the car from moving when it is raised;
❒position the jack under the car, near the wheel to
be changed;
❒insert the wrench A fig. 156 to extend the jack
until the top of the jack B fits correctly into the
sidemember C (next to the mark
on the
sidemember itself );
❒alert other passengers that the car is about to be
raised; all persons should be kept away from the
car until it has been lowered;

REFITTING THE STANDARD WHEEL
Following the procedure described previously, raise
the car and remove the space-saver wheel.
Versions with steel rims
Proceed as follows:
❒make sure the contact surfaces between standard
wheel and hub are clean so that the fixing studs
will not come loose;
❒fit the standard wheel inserting the 5 studs into
the holes;
❒press-fit the hub cap, aligning the special splining
(on the cap) with the inflation valve;
❒using the wrench provided, tighten the fixing studs;
❒lower the car and remove the jack;
❒using the wrench provided, fully tighten the studs
in the sequence shown previously.Versions with alloy wheels
Proceed as follows:
❒insert the wheel on the hub and using the wrench
provided tighten the studs;
❒lower the car and remove the jack;
❒using the wrench provided, fully tighten the 5 studs
in the sequence shown;
❒reinstall the hub cap, taking care to position the 3
plastic pins in the dedicated seats on the wheel.
Slightly press the cap to prevent any damage to the
plastic pins.
IMPORTANT If it is not fitted properly, the hub cap
may detach itself when the car is running.
After tyre replacement
❒stow the space-saver wheel in the compartment
provided in the boot;
❒insert the jack and the other tools in the
container;
❒arrange the container and tools on the space-saver
wheel;
❒correctly reposition the boot stiff cover.

WARNING
The road holding qualities of the car
also depend on the correct inflation
pressure of the tyres.
WARNING
If tyre pressure is too low, it may
overheat and be severely damaged as a
result .
WARNING
Do not cross switch the tyres, moving
them from the right of the car to the
left and vice versa.
WARNING
Do not repaint alloy wheel rims at
temperatures higher than 150°C.The
mechanical characteristics of the wheels might
be compromised.
WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW
WIPERBLADES
Replace the blades if the rubber edge is deformed or
worn. In any event, it is advisable to replace them
approximately once a year.
A few simple precautions can reduce the possibility
of damage to the blades:
❒if the temperature falls below zero, make sure that
ice has not frozen the rubber against the glass. Use
an antifreeze product to release it if required;
❒remove any snow from the glass: in addition to
protecting the blades, this prevents effort on
the motor and over-heating;
❒do not operate the windscreen/rear window
wipers on dry glass.
WARNING
Driving with worn windscreen/rear
window wiper blades is a serious hazard,
because visibility is reduced in bad weather.
