MAIN RECOMMENDATIONS TO CARRY CHILDREN SAFELY:
1) The recommended position for installing child restraint systems, is on the rear seat, as it is the most protected area in the event
of an impact.
2) If the passenger airbag is deactivated, always check that the amber warning light on the instrument panel switches on constantly
to make sure that it has actually been deactivated.
3) Carefully follow the instructions provided with the child restraint system which are mandatory by law. Keep the instructions in
the vehicle along with the other documents and this handbook. Do not use second-hand child restraint systems without in-
structions.
4) Always check that the seat belts are well fastened with a traction test.
5) Only one child is to be secured into each restraint system; never carry two children using one child restraint system.
6) Always check that the seat belts do not interfere with the child’s throat.
7) While travelling, do not let the child sit incorrectly or unfasten the belts.
8) Never allow a child to put the seat belt’s diagonal section under an arm or behind their back.
9) Never carry children on your lap, not even newborns. No-one, regardless of his/her strength, can restrain a child in the event of
an accident.
10) In the event of an accident, replace the child restraint system with a new oneGROUP 2:

FRONT AIRBAGS
The front driver and passenger airbags
(for versions/markets where provided)
protect the front seat occupants in the
event of head-on impacts of medium-high
severity, by placing the bag between the
occupant and the steering wheel or dash-
board. 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 (for ver-
sions/markets where provided) are not a
replacement for, but are complementary
to, the seat belts, which you are recom-
mended to always wear, as specified by law
in Europe and most non-European coun-
tries.
An electronic control unit will inflate the
bag, when necessary, in the event of a
frontal impact. The bag will inflate instan-
taneously placing itself between the front
occupant’s body and the structures which
could cause injury. It will deflate immedi-
ately afterwards. The volume of front
airbags at max. inflation fills most of the
space between the steering wheel and the
driver and between the dashboard and the
passenger.
AIRBAGThe car is equipped with front airbags for
driver and passenger (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 out-
er occupants (for versions/markets where
provided).
The location of the airbags on the car is
marked by the writing “AIRBAG” in the
middle of the steering wheel, on the dash-
board, on the side trim or on a label placed
next to the airbag deployment area.In the event of impact, those not wearing
a seat belt are projected forwards and may
come into contact with the bag which is still
inflating. The protection offered by the bag
is compromised in these circumstances.
Front airbags may not activate in the fol-
lowing situations:
❒frontal impacts against highly deformable
objects not involving the front surface of
the vehicle (e.g. wing collision against
guard rail, heaps of gravel, etc.);❒underride impacts with other vehicles;
Failure to activate in the conditions de-
scribed above is due to the fact that they
may not provide any additional protection
compared with seat belts, so their activa-
tion would be inappropriate. In these cas-
es, non-deployment of the airbag does not
necessarily indicate a system malfunction.

MANUAL DEACTIVATION OF
THE PASSENGER AIRBAGS
(for versions/markets where provided)
If a child must absolutely be carried on one
of the front seats, deactivate the front pas-
senger airbag and side bag for pelvis, chest
and shoulder protection (for versions/
markets, where provided).
The deactivation device fig. 14is located
on the edge of the glove compartment; to
access it open its flap. fig. 14

Use the ignition key to turn the pawl of
the deactivation device to O
OFF
to deacti-
vate the airbag or to O
ON
to activate it.
Warning light
“
on the instrument pan-
el stays on constantly until the front pas-
senger airbags and side bag for chest pro-
tection (side bag) (for versions/markets
where provided) are reactivated.
SIDE BAGSThe car is equipped with front side airbags
for driver and passenger (for
versions/markets, where provided) pelvis,
chest and shoulder protection (front side
bags), airbags for protecting the heads of
front and rear occupants (window bags)
(for versions/markets where provided).
The front side airbags (for versions/mar-
kets, where provided) protect the occu-
pants during impacts of medium-high
severity, by placing the bag between the
occupant and the internal parts of the side
structure of the vehicle. Therefore non-
deployment of the side bags in other types
of impacts (front, rear, roll-overs, etc.)
does not indicate a system malfunction.
Side airbags (for versions/markets where
provided) 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.
An electronic control unit will inflate the
bags, when necessary, in the event of a
side impact. The bags will inflate instanta-
neously placing themselves between the
occupant bodies and the structures which
could cause injuries;

If the vehicle has been stolen
or in the case of attempt to
steal it, if it has been subjected to
vandalism or floods, have the airbag
system checked by a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
The airbags may also be de-
ployed when the car is not
moving, if the key is in the ig-
nition and turned to M-ON
or when the engine 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 in-
stall on the passenger seat child re-
straint systems to be fitted rearward
facing on the front seat. Deployment
of the airbag following an impact
could cause fatal injuries to the child.
Therefore, always release the pas-
senger airbag when a rearward fac-
ing child restraint is installed on the
passenger front seat.The front pas-
senger seat must also be positioned
back as far as possible in order to
avoid the child restraint from coming
into contact with the dashboard. Im-
mediately reactivate the passenger
airbag as soon as the child restraint
system has been removed. Also re-
member that, if the key is turned to
S, none of the safety devices (airbags
or pretensioners) will be deployed in
the event of collision. Non-deploy-
ment of these devices does not indi-
cate a system malfunction.
WARNING
The airbag deployment
threshold is higher than that
of the pretensioners. For collisions in
the range between the two thresholds,
it is normal for only the pretensioners
to be activated.
WARNING
The airbag does not replace
the seat belts but increases
their efficiency. Because front airbags
are not deployed for low-speed im-
pacts, side collisions, rear-end shunts
or rollovers, in these cases occupants
are protected only by their seat belts,
which must therefore always be fas-
tened.
WARNING
Do not travel carrying objects
in your lap, in front of your
chest or between your lips (pipe, pen-
cils, etc.). They could cause severe in-
jury if the airbag is deployed.

If the warning light stays on or turns on

lack of performance, poor handling and
high consumption levels.
In these conditions it is possible to con-
tinue driving without however requiring
heavy effort or high speed from the
