instrument panel to make sure
that they are actually deactivated.
The passenger seat must also be
positioned back as far as possible
in order to avoid the child
restraint system from coming into
contact with the dashboard.
114) The figures are indicative and
for assembly purposes only. Fit
the child restraint system
according to the instructions,
which must be included.
115) Some child restraint systems
for weight group 0 and 1 have a
rear attachment to the car seat
belts and its 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.SETUP FOR
“UNIVERSAL
ISOFIX” CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
Provision has been made on the vehicle
to fit Universal Isofix child restraint
systems, a new European standardised
system for carrying children safely.
An example of a child restraint system
is shown in fig. 163.Due to its different attachment system,
the child restraint system must be
secured using the special lower metal
rings A fig. 164, positioned between
rear backrest and cushion. The upper
belt (provided with the child restraint
system) must be then secured to ring B
fig. 165 located in the lower part of
the seat. It is possible to have a mixed
assembly of traditional child restraint
systems and Universal Isofix ones.

ALWAYScomply with the instructions
on the label stuck on the passenger
side sun visor.
Manual deactivation of
front passenger side
airbag and side bag
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If a child must of necessity be carried
on the front seat facing backwards, the
front passenger side airbag and side
bag for chest protection (for
versions/markets where provided) can
be deactivated.
IMPORTANT To manually deactivate the
passenger side front airbag and side
bag for chest protection (for
versions/markets where provided), refer
to the "Display" paragraph in the
"Knowing the instrument panel"
chapter. The LED on the button
switches on in case of deactivation.
The LED next to the
fig. 168 symbol
on the dashboard shows the passenger
side protection status. If the LED is off,
the passenger side protection is
activated.When the passenger side front airbag
and side bag for chest protection
(for versions/markets where provided)
are activated again, the LED switches
off.
When the vehicle is started (key in
MAR-ON position), the LED turns on for
approx. 8 seconds, provided that at
least 5 seconds have elapsed from the
previous switching off. If not, contact
a Fiat Dealership.
If the vehicle is switched off/on again in
less than 5 seconds the LED may
remain off. In this case, to check
correct LED operation, switch the
vehicle off, wait at least 5 seconds and
switch on again.
During the first 8 seconds, the
activation of the LED does not actually
show the passenger protection status,
but only checks its correct operation.

WARNING
119) Do not apply stickers or other objects to the steering wheel, the dashboard in the passenger side airbag area and
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 injury to the passengers.
120) When an active passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT install rear facing child restraint systems on the front seat.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident could cause fatal injuries to the child regardless of the severity of the
impact. Therefore, always deactivate the passenger airbag when a rear facing child restraint system is installed on
the front passenger seat. The front passenger seat must also be positioned back as far as possible in order to prevent
the child restraint system from coming into contact with the dashboard. Immediately reactivate the passenger airbag
as soon as the child restraint system has been removed.
178
SAFETY

127) If the key is inserted and turned
to MAR-ON, airbags may be
deployed if another vehicle
crashes into the vehicle even if
the engine is not running and the
vehicle is stationary. Therefore,
even if the car is stationary, when
an active front passenger airbag
is fitted, DO NOT install rear
facing child restraint systems on
the front passenger seat.
Deployment of the airbag
following an impact could cause
fatal injuries to the child.
Therefore, always deactivate the
passenger airbag when a rear
facing child restraint system is
installed on the front passenger
seat. The front passenger seat
must also be positioned back as
far as possible in order to prevent
the child restraint system from
coming into contact with the
dashboard. Immediately
reactivate the passenger airbag
as soon as the child restraint
system has been removed. Also
remember that, if the key is
turned to STOP, none of the
safety devices (airbags or
pretensioners) will be deployed in
the event of collision. Non-
deployment in such cases does
not indicate a system malfunction.128) If the vehicle has been subject
to theft, attempted theft,
vandalism, or flooding, have the
airbag system inspected at a Fiat
Dealership.
129) When the ignition key is turned
to MAR-ON, the LED on button
on the dashboard blinks for a
few seconds (the number of
seconds may depend on the
market) to check the correct
operation of the LED on the
button.
130) Do not wash the seats with
water or pressurised steam (by
hand or at automatic car seat
washing stations).
131) The front airbag deploys in the
event of more severe collisions
than those required for deploying
the pretensioners. For impacts
whose intensity falls between the
two levels, normally, only the
pretensioners will be activated.
132) Do not affix rigid objects to the
coat hooks or support handles.133) The airbag does not replace
seat belts but increases their
efficiency. Furthermore, since
front airbags are not deployed in
low-speed frontal impacts, side
impacts, rear shunts or roll-overs,
the passengers are protected
only by the seat belts which must
therefore be fastened at all times.
