2014 FIAT QUBO technical specifications

All restraint devices must bear the type-approval
data along with the control mark on a label firmly
secured to the child seat which must never be
removed.
Over 1.50 m in height, from the point of view of
restraint systems, children are considered as adults
and wear seat belts normally.
Lineaccessori Fiat has child seats for each weight
group. These devices are recommended, having been
specifically designed for Fiat cars.
WARNING
DANGER: Do not put cradle seats facing
backwards on the front seat if the front
passenger air bag is enabled.
Deployment of the air bag in an
accident could cause fatal injuries to the child.
It is advisable to carr y children on the rear seat ,
which is the most protected position in the
event of an accident . Child seats must not be
fitted on the front seat of vehicles with a
passenger air bag; their deployment in
an accident , however serious, could cause fatal
injuries to the child. If necessary, children can
travel in the front seat , if the front passenger air
bag can be disabled. In this case, check that
the air bag is actually deactivated by making
sure the “ warning light appears on the
instrument panel (see “Front passenger air bag”
in the “Front air bags” section). Also, the
passenger seat should be as far back as possible
to avoid contact between the child seat and
the dashboard.

GROUPS 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried facing backwards
on a cradle seat, which, by supporting the head,
does not induce stress on the neck in the event of
sharp deceleration.
The cradle is restrained by the vehicle seat belts, as
shown in fig. 103 and, in turn, it must restrain the
child with its own belts.
WARNING
The diagrams are indicative and
provided for assembly purposes only. For
assembly, refer to the instructions supplied with
the child seat by low.GROUP 1
Children from 9 kg to 18 kg in weight can be carried
facing forwards if the child seat is fitted with a front
cushion, through which the car seat belt restrains
both child and seat fig. 104.
WARNING
The diagrams are indicative and
provided for assembly purposes only. For
assembly, refer to the instructions supplied with
the child seat by law.

WARNING
Some child restraint systems for weight
groups 0 and 1 have a rear attachment
to the car seat belts and their own seat belts for
securing the child. Due to their weight , they
may be dangerous if incorrectly mounted (e.g. if
fastened to the vehicle seat belts placing a
cushion in between). Follow the assembly
instructions carefully.
GROUP 2
Children from 15 to 25 kg can be secured using the
car seat belts directly fig. 105.
The child seat is needed only to position the child
correctly with respect to the belts so that the
diagonal section crosses the child's chest and never
the neck, and the lower part is snug on the hips
not the abdomen.
WARNING
The diagrams are indicative and
provided for assembly purposes only. For
assembly, refer to the instructions supplied with
the child seat by law.

positioning on the rear seat.
Children over 1.50 m in height can wear seat belts
like adults.
