RADIO OPERATION AND MOBILE
PHONES
Under certain conditions, the mobile phone being on in
your vehicle can cause erratic or noisy performance
from your radio. This condition may be lessened or
eliminated by relocating the mobile phone antenna.
This condition is not harmful to the radio. If your radio
performance does not satisfactorily “clear” by the
repositioning of the antenna, it is recommended that
the radio volume be turned down or off during mobile
phone operation.
ADDING FUEL
FUEL FILLER CAP (GAS CAP)
The gas cap is located behind the fuel filler door on the
left side of the vehicle. If the gas cap is lost or damaged,
be sure the replacement cap has been designed for use
with this vehicle.
(fig. 126)
Locking Fuel Filler Cap (for versions/markets,
where provided)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a locking fuel cap.
Use the specific blade key to lock/unlock this fuel cap.

The BeltAlert warning sequence begins after the ve-
hicle speed is over 8 km/h by blinking the Seat Belt
Reminder Light and sounding an intermittent chime.
Once the sequence starts, it will continue for the
entire duration or until the respective seat belts are
buckled. After the sequence completes, the Seat Belt
Reminder Light remains illuminated until the respective
seat belts are buckled. The driver should instruct all
other occupants to buckle their seat belts. If an out-
board front seat belt is unbuckled while traveling at
speeds greater than 8 km/h, BeltAlert will provide both
audio and visual notification.
The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is not
active when the outboard front passenger seat is un-
occupied. BeltAlert may be triggered when an animal
or heavy object is on the outboard front passenger seat
or when the seat is folded flat (if equipped). It is
recommended that pets be restrained in the rear seat
(if equipped) in pet harnesses or pet carriers that are
secured by seat belts, and cargo is properly stowed.
BeltAlert can be activated or deactivated by your
authorized dealer. Fiat Group does not recommend
deactivating BeltAlert.NOTE:
If BeltAlert has been deactivated, the Seat Belt
Reminder Light will continue to illuminate while the
driver’s or outboard front passenger’s (if equipped with
BeltAlert) seat belt remains unbuckled.
LAP/SHOULDER BELTS
All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped with
lap/shoulder belts.
The seat belt webbing retractor will lock only during
very sudden stops or collisions. This feature allows the
shoulder part of the seat belt to move freely with you
under normal conditions. However, in a collision the
seat belt will lock and reduce your risk of striking the
inside of the vehicle or being thrown out of the vehicle.
WARNING!
• Relying on the air bags alone could
lead to

more severe injuries in a collision.
The air bags work with your seat belt to restrain
you properly. In some collisions, the air bags
won’t deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt
even though you have air bags.

3. Slide the latch plate upward over the folded web-bing. The folded webbing must enter the slot at the
top of the latch plate.
4. Continue to slide the latch plate up until it clears the folded webbing.
ADJUSTABLE UPPER SHOULDER BELT
ANCHORAGE
In the driver and front passenger seats, the top of the
shoulder belt can be adjusted upward or downward to
position the seat belt away from your neck. Push or
squeeze the anchorage button to release the anchor-
age, and move it up or down to the position that serves
you best.
(fig. 131)
As a guide, if you are shorter than average, you will
prefer the shoulder belt anchorage in a lower position,
and if you are taller than average, you will prefer the
shoulder belt anchorage in a higher position. After you
release the anchorage button, try to move it up or
down to make sure that it is locked in position.
NOTE: The adjustable upper shoulder belt anchorage
is equipped with an Easy Up feature. This feature allows
the shoulder belt anchorage to be adjusted in the
upward position without pushing or squeezing the
release button. To verify the shoulder belt anchorage is
latched, pull downward on the shoulder belt anchorage
until it is locked into position.
SEAT BELTS AND PREGNANT WOMEN
We recommend that pregnant women use the seat
belts throughout their pregnancy. Keeping the mother
safe is the best way to keep the baby safe.
Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the seat
belt across the thighs and as snug across the hips as
possible. Keep the seat belt low so that it does not
come across the abdomen. That way the strong bones
of the hips will take the force if there is a collision.

NOTE:
• If you have difficulties or problems resetting the Active Head Restraints, see an authorized dealer.
• For safety reasons, have the Active Head Restraints checked by a qualified specialist at an authorized
dealer. ACTIVE HOOD SYSTEM
The Active Hood system is intended to enhance pe-
destrian protection by elevating the vehicle’s hood
upon an impact with a pedestrian or other object. The
system is automatically activated when the vehicle is
moving within a specified vehicle speed range. In order
to detect a range of pedestrians, other objects that are
impacted may result in an Active Hood deployment.
Deployment Sensors And Controls
The Electronic Pedestrian Protection Module (EPPM)
determines if deployment of the actuators in a frontal
impact is required. Based on the impact sensors signals,
the EPPM determines when to deploy the actuators.
The impact sensors are located within the front bum-
per area. The EPPM monitors the readiness of the
electronic parts of the Active Hood system whenever
the ignition switch is in the START or ON/RUN posi-
tion. If the key is in the LOCK position, in the ACC
position, or not in the ignition, the Active Hood system
is not on and the Active Hood will not deploy.
The EPPM contains a backup power supply system that
may deploy the actuators even if the battery loses
power or it becomes disconnected prior to deploy-
ment.

2. Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains(SABICs): Located above the side windows. The
trim covering the SABICs is labeled SRS AIRBAG or
AIRBAG. (fig. 140)
SABICs may help reduce the risk of head injury to
front and rear seat outboard occupants. SABICs
may reduce the risk of injuries in certain side impact
and vehicle rollover events, in addition to the injury
reduction potential provided by the seat belts and
body structure.
The SABICs deploy downward, covering the side
windows. An inflating SABIC pushes the outside edge of the trim out of the way and covers the
window. The SABICs inflate with enough force to
injure you if you are not belted and seated properly,
or if items are positioned in the area where the
SABICs inflate. Children are at an even greater risk
of injury from a deploying air bag.
The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or
complete ejection of vehicle occupants through side
windows in certain rollover or side impact events.
WARNING!
• Your vehicle is equipped with left and
r igh

t Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflat-
able Curtains (SABICs). Do not stack luggage or
other cargo up high enough to block the deploy-
ment of the SABICs.The trim covering above the
side windows where the SABIC and its deploy-
ment path are located should remain free from
any obstructions.
• Your vehicle is equipped with SABICs. In order
for the SABICs to work as intended, do not install
any accessory items in your vehicle which could
alter the roof. Do not add an aftermarket sunroof
to your vehicle. Do not add roof racks that re-
quire permanent attachments (bolts or screws)
for installation on the vehicle roof. Do not drill
into the roof of the vehicle for any reason.

Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have
deployed. If you are involved in another collision, the
air bags will not be in place to protect you.
WARNING!
Deployed air bags and seat belt preten-
sion er

s cannot protect you in another
collision. Have the air bags, seat belt pretension-
ers, and the seat belt retractor assemblies re-
placed by an authorized dealer immediately.
Also, have the Occupant Restraint Controller Sys-
tem serviced as well.
NOTE:
• Air bag covers may not be obvious in the interior trim, but they will open during air bag deployment.
• After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer immediately. ENHANCED ACCIDENT RESPONSE
SYSTEM
In the event of an impact, if the communication net-
work remains intact, and the power remains intact,
depending on the nature of the event, the ORC will
determine whether to have the Enhanced Accident
Response System perform the following functions:
• Cut off fuel to the engine.
• Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power
or until the ignition switch is turned to the “OFF”
position.
• Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power or until the ignition switch
is turned to the “OFF” position.
• Unlock the doors automatically.
SYSTEM RESET PROCEDURE
In order to reset the Enhanced Accident Response
System functions after an event, the ignition switch
must be changed from ignition START or ON/RUN to
ignition OFF.
