SEAT BELTSUSING THE SEAT BELTS fig. 1
The seat belt should be worn keeping the
torso straight and rested against the seat
back.
To fasten the seat belt, hold the tongueAand insert it into the buckle B
B, until it
clicks into place.
If the seat belt jams during removal, let it
rewind for a short stretch, then pull it out
again without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belt, press button C
C.
Guide the seat belt while it is rewinding,
to prevent it from twisting.
Through the retractor, the seat belt au-
tomatically adapts to the body of the oc-
cupant wearing it, allowing freedom of
movement.
The retractor may lock when the car is
parked on a steep slope: this is normal.
Furthermore, the retractor mechanism
locks the belt if it is pulled sharply or in
the event of sudden braking, impacts or
high-speed bends.
The rear seat is fitted with inertial seat
belts with three fixing points and a re-
tractor.

WARNING
USING THE FRONT
SEAT BELTS
With front airbags: driver and passenger
(for versions/markets, where provided).
The front seats are equipped with py-
rotechnic pretensioners and load limiters.
See paragraphs - pretensioners and load
limiters;
If the vehicle is equipped with a 2-seat
front bench, and the passenger front
airbag is not available, the seat belt of the
central passenger is not equipped with the
pyrotechnic pretensioner; the height of
the seat belt associated with the centre
seat cannot be adjusted.
The front seat belts are height-adjustable,
in order to adapt to the body of the oc-
cupants. This precaution may considerably
reduce the risk of injury in the event of an
impact. Correct adjustment is obtained
when the belt passes approximately half
way between the shoulder and the neck.
To carry out the adjustment, press gripAand raise or lower the cursor.

WARNING
USE OF THE SEAT BELT ON
THE REAR SEATS fig. 2
If the vehicle is provided with a single seat
and a double seat, the three seats are
equipped with seats belts with three fix-
ing points and retractors. The central seat
is equipped with a guide and with the seat
belt retractor, integral to the backrest.
The three seats of the bench (long cab
chassis versions) have seat belts with reels.
The seat belts are integral with the back-
rest of the bench seat. Be careful and fas-
ten the seat belt in the corresponding
locking device.
For the second and third row, always in-
sert the seat belt in the corresponding
housing. Do not exchange the seat belt or
the housing of the side seats with those of
the central seat.
After folding or moving the
seat, make sure that the seat
belt is correctly wound and that the
dedicated housing is ready for lock-
ing.
WARNING
Make sure that the backrest
is correctly fixed on both
sides to prevent it from projecting for-
wards, hurting the passengers, in the
event of a sudden braking.

HOW TO MAINTAIN THE SEAT
BELTS IN EFFICIENT
CONDITIONS
For keeping the seat belts in efficient con-
ditions, carefully observe the following:❒
always use the seat belt with the strap
well stretched and not twisted; make
sure that it is free to run without ob-
structions;
❒
check seat belt operation as follows: at-
tach the seat belt and pull it hard
❒replace the belt after an accident of a cer-
tain severity even if it does not appear to
be damaged. Always replace the seat belt
if the pretensioners were deployed;
❒to clean the seat belts, wash by hand with
water and neutral soap, rinse and leave to
dry in the shade. Do not use strong de-
tergents, bleach, colouring agents or any
other substance which could damage the
belt fibres;
❒prevent the retractors from getting wet:
their correct operation is only guaranteed
if water does not get inside;
❒replace the seat belt when it shows wear
or cuts.
For maximum safety, keep
the back of your seat upright,
lean back into it and make sure the
seat belt fits closely across your chest
and pelvis. Always fasten the seat belts
on both the front and the rear seats!
Travelling without wearing the seat
belts will increase the risk of serious in-
jury and even death in the event of an
accident.
WARNING
Removing or otherwise tam-
pering with seat belt and
pretensioner components is strictly
prohibited. Any operations on these
components must be performed by
qualified and authorised technicians.
Always contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
If the belt has been subject-
ed to a high level of stress,
for example after an accident, it must
be completely replaced together with
the attachments, attachment fixing
screws and the pretensioner. In fact,
even if the belt has no visible defects,
it could have lost its resilience.
WARNING
Each seat belt must be used
by only one person. Never
travel with a child sitting on the pas-
senger’s lap and a single belt to pro-
tect them both. In general, do not
place any objects between the person
and the belt.
