centrally locks all the doors. The doors
will be locked only if all the doors are
properly shut.
Following the locking of the doors
using:
❒remote control
❒door pawl
they cannot be unlocked using the
button A fig. 107 in the dashboard.
IMPORTANT With the central locking
on, pulling the opening lever for one of
the front doors causes the central
locking to be switched off. Individual
doors can be unlocked by pulling
the opening handle of one of the rear
doors.If a power supply is not present (blown
fuse, battery disconnected, etc.) it is,
however, possible to lock the doors
manually.
After exceeding 20 km/h, all the doors
will be locked automatically if the setup
menu function has been selected
(see “Multifunction display” paragraph
in this section).
LOAD COMPARTMENT
BUTTON
The activation of the locking is signalled
by the LED in the button.
The LED comes on in the following
cases:
❒after each door lock command
generated by the button D fig. 108 or
by button
in the dashboard;
❒when the instrument panel is
activated;
❒upon opening of one of the front
doors;
❒when the door is locked at 20 km/h
(if activated from the menu).
The lock is turned off when one of the
load compartment doors is opened
or on a door release request (load
compartment or centralised) or
an unlocking request from the remote
control/door catch.DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This safety device inhibits the operation
of:
❒interior handles
locking/unlocking button A fig. 107
thereby preventing the opening of the
doors from inside the passenger
compartment if there has been
a break-in attempt (e.g. a window has
been broken).
The dead lock device therefore offers
the best possible protection against
break-in attempts. We recommend
engaging it whenever the vehicle is
parked and left unattended.

always check that nobody is
exposed to the risk of being
injured either directly by the
moving window or through
objects getting caught or by being
hit. When leaving the vehicle,
always remove the key from the
ignition switch to avoid the risk of
injury to anyone remaining in
the car due to accidental
operation of the electric windows.

72) Tyre pressure must be checked
with tyres cold. Should it become
necessary for whatever reason
to check pressure with warm
tyres, do not reduce pressure
even if it is higher than the
prescribed value, but repeat the
check when tyres are cold.
73) The TPMS cannot indicate
sudden tyre pressure drops (for
example when a tyre bursts).
In this case, stop the car, braking
with caution and avoiding abrupt
steering.
74) The system only warns that the
tyre pressure is low: it is not able
to inflate them.
75) An insufficient tyre inflation
increases fuel consumption,
reduces the tread duration and
may affect the capacity of driving
safely.
76) Always refit the valve stem cap
after inspecting or adjusting tyre
pressure. This prevents dampness
or dirt from entering the valve
stem and thus the pressure
control sensor from being
damaged.77) The tyre repair kit (Fix&Go)
provided with the car (for
versions/markets, where
provided) is compatible with the
TPMS sensors; using sealants not
equivalent with that in the original
kit may adversely affect its
operation. If sealants not
equivalent with the original one
are used, it is recommended to
have the TPMS sensor operation
checked by a qualified repair
centre.DRIVING ADVISOR
(lane crossing warning)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
82) 79) 80)
The Driving Advisor is a warning system
that notifies the driver if he/she crosses
the lane because he/she has been
distracted.
A video sensor, fitted on the windscreen
near the interior rear view mirror,
detects the lane demarcation lines and
the position of the car in relation to
them.
IMPORTANT On cars with Driving
Advisor, it is advisable to contact a Fiat
Dealership should the windscreen
need to be replaced. If the repair is
carried out at a specialist window
replacement centre, it is still necessary
to go to a Fiat Dealership to have the
camera calibrated.

SIDE BAGS
121) 122) 123) 124) 125) 126) 127) 128) 129) 130)
131) 132) 133)
The vehicle is fitted with front side bags
for driver and passenger (for versions/
markets where provided) for protecting
the chest and window bags (for
versions/markets where provided) for
protecting front and rear passengers'
heads.
Side bags (for versions/markets where
provided) protect occupants from
side impacts of medium-high severity,
by placing the bag between the
occupant and the internal parts of the
side structure of the vehicle. Non-
activation of side bags in other types of
collisions (front collisions, rear shunts,
roll-overs, etc...) is not a system
malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the
bags to inflate in the event of a side
impact. The bags inflate
instantaneously placing themselves
between the occupants' bodies and the
structures which could cause injury.
They deflate immediately afterwards.Side bags (for versions/markets where
provided) are not a replacement of
but complementary to the belts, which
you are recommended to always wear,
as specified by law in Europe and
most non-European countries.
FRONT SIDE BAGS FOR
CHEST PROTECTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Housed in the seats' backrests fig. 170,
they consist of an instantly inflating
bag designed to protect the occupants'
chest in the event of a side impact of
medium-high severity.SIDE AIRBAGS FOR
HEAD PROTECTION
(WINDOW BAGS)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
They consist of two curtain bags,
one on the right and the other on the
left side of the vehicle, located behind
the side coverings of the roof and
covered by specific finishing fig. 171.
Window bags have been designed for
protecting the head of front occupants
in the event of side impact, thanks to
the wide bag inflation surface.
IMPORTANT In the event of a side-on
crash, the system offers best protection
if you keep a correct position on the
seat because this allows the side bags
to inflate correctly.
