FRONT AIRBAGS
The car is fitted with front airbags for the
driver and the passenger, and with a knee
bag on the driver’s side (for versions/mar -
kets, where provided).
The front driver/passenger airbags and the
driver’s knee bag (for versions/markets,
where provided) have been designed to
protect the occupants of the front seats
in the event of head-on crashes of medi-
um/high severity, by placing the bag be-
tween the occupant and the steering
wheel or dashboard.
Non-activation in other types of crash
(side-on collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs,
etc.) is therefore not a sign of system mal-
function.
An electronic control unit causes the bag
to inflate in the event of a head-on crash.
The bag will inflate instantaneously, placing
itself between the front occupant’s body
and the structures which could cause in-
jury. It will deflate immediately afterwards.
The front driver/passenger airbags and the
driver’s knee bag (for versions/markets,
where provided) are not a replacement
for, but rather complement the use of,
seat belts, which should always be worn,
as specified by law in Europe and most
non-European countries.The volume of the front airbags at maxi-
mum inflation fills most of the space
between the steering wheel and the dri-
ver and between the dashboard and the
passenger.
In the event of an impact, someone not
wearing a seat belt will move forward and
come into contact with the bag which is
still in the opening stage. The protection
offered by the bag is reduced in such
a case.
Front airbags may not be activated in the
following situations:
❒in collisions against highly strainable ob-
jects that do not affect the front surface
of the car (e.g. bumper collision against
guard rail, piles of gravel etc.);
❒jamming of the car underneath other
vehicles or protective barriers (e.g. un-
derneath a truck or a guard rail); in this
case, the bags would offer no addition-
al protection with respect to the seat
belt and their deployment is unneces-
sary. In these cases, non-deployment of
the airbag does not necessarily indicate
a system malfunction.
Do not apply stickers or oth-
er objects on the steering
wheel, passenger side airbag cover or
upper side upholstery. Do not place
objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the
passenger side dashboard because
these could interfere with the correct
opening of the airbag and cause se-
vere injury to occupants.
WARNING
The airbags are not deployed in the event
of minor collisions (for which the with-
holding action of the seat belts is suffi-
cient). For this reason, the seat belt must
be worn at all times. In the case of side-
on collisions, the seat belts hold occupants
in the correct position and prevent them
from being thrown out of the car by a very
violent collision.

MANUAL DEACTIVATION
OF FRONT AND SIDE CHEST/
PELVIS PASSENGER AIRBAGS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Whenever a child needs to be carried on
the front seat, the passenger’s front and side
chest/pelvis airbags (for versions/ markets,
where provided) must be deactivated.
The warning light
“on the instrument
panel stays on steadily until the passenger’s
front and side chest airbags (for versions/
markets, where provided) are re-activated.
To manually deactivate the
passenger’s front and side
chest/pelvis airbags (for versions/mar -
kets, where provided), refer to para-
graphs “Digital display” and “Mul -
tifunction display” in the section
“Dashboard and controls”.
WARNING
SIDE AIRBAGS
The car is fitted with front side airbags
for driver and passenger (for versions/
mar kets, where provided) for protecting
the chest and pelvis, and window bags
(for versions/markets, where provided)
for protecting the heads of front and rear
passengers.
Side airbags (for versions/markets, where
provided) protect car occupants from
side-on crashes of medium/high severity
by placing the bag between the occupant
and the internal parts of the side structure
of the car.
Non-activation of side bags in other types
of collisions (head-on collisions, rear
shunts, roll-overs, etc…) is not an indi-
cation of system malfunction.
In the event of a side-on crash, an elec-
tronic control unit triggers the inflation of
the bag if required. The cushion immedi-
ately inflates, placing itself between the oc-
cupant’s body and structures that could
cause injuries, the cushion deflates Imme-
diately afterwards.
Side bags (for versions/markets, where
provided) are not a replacement for, but
rather a complement to, the seat belts,
which should be worn at all times as spec-
ified by law in Europe and most non-Eu-
ropean countries.FRONT SIDE AIRBAGS
- CHEST AND PELVIS
ZONE PROTECTION fig. 17
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Front side airbags are housed in the seat
backrests. They consist of an instant-in-
flation bag designed to increase protection
of the occupants’ chest and pelvis zone in
the event of a side-on crash of medium/
high severity.

SAFETY
Do not wash the seats with
water or steam under pres-
sure (by hand or in automatic wash-
ing stations for seats).
WARNING
Front airbag deployment
takes place at a higher level
of impact than the pretensioners. For
collisions in the range between the
two thresholds, it is normal for only
the pretensioners to be activated.
WARNING
Do not hang rigid objects on
the coat hooks and the sup-
port handles.
WARNING
Airbags do not replace seat
belts, but increase their effi-
ciency. Furthermore, since front
airbags are not deployed in low
speed collisions, side-on collisions,
rear-end shunts or roll-overs, the pas-
sengers are protected only by the
seat belts which must therefore be
fastened at all times.
WARNING
When the ignition key is
turned to MAR, the warning
light (with passenger’s front airbag
activated) turns on and flashes for
a few seconds to remind you that the
passenger’s air bag will be deployed
in a crash, after which it should go off.
WARNING
Always drive with your hands
on the steering wheel rim so
that the airbag can inflate freely if
needed. Do not drive with your body
bent forward. Keep your back straight
against the backrest.
WARNING
If the vehicle has been sub-
ject to theft or a theft at-
tempt, or if it has been affected by
vandalism or flooding, have the airbag
system checked at a Fiat Dealership.
