AND DEVICESSAFETY
Never travel with objects on
your lap, in front of your
chest or with a pipe, pencil, etc. be-
tween your lips; serious injury may re-
sult in the event of the airbag being
triggered.
WARNING
The airbags may also be de-
ployed when the car is not
moving, if the key is in the ignition and
turned to MAR-ON or when the en-
gine is off, if the car is hit by another
moving vehicle. Therefore, even if the
car is stationary,when an active pas-
senger airbag is fitted, DO NOT install
on the passenger seat child restraint
systems to be fitted rearward facing
on the front seat. Deployment of the
airbag following an impact could
cause fatal injuries to the child. There-
fore, always release the passenger
airbag when a rearward facing child
restraint is installed on the passenger
front seat. The front passenger seat
must also be positioned back as far as
possible in order to avoid the child re-
straint from coming into contact with
the dashboard. Immediately reacti-
vate the passenger airbag as soon as
the child restraint system has been re-
moved. Also remember that, if the key
is turned to STOP, none of the safe-
ty devices (airbags or pretensioners)
will be deployed in the event of colli-
sion. Non-deployment of these de-
vices does not indicate a system mal-
function.
WARNING
Always drive with your hands
on the steering wheel rim so
that the airbag can inflate freely if
needed. Do not drive with your body
bent forward. Keep your back straight
against the backrest.
WARNING
If the vehicle has been sub-
ject to theft or a theft at-
tempt, or if it has been affected by
vandalism or flooding, have the airbag
system checked at a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
When the ignition key is
turned to MAR, the warning
light (with passenger’s front airbag
activated) turns on and flashes for
a few seconds to remind you that the
passenger’s air bag will be deployed
in a crash, after which it should go off.
