2016 FIAT QUBO child seat

Below is a summary of the rules of safety to
be followed when carrying children:
❒Install the child seats on the rear seat, which is the
most protected position in the event of an
accident.
❒If the passenger's air bag is deactivated, always
check the amber warning light
on the
instrument panel to make sure that it has actually
been deactivated.
❒Carefully follow the instructions that came with
the child seat, which the manufacturer must supply
by law. Keep the instructions in the vehicle along
with the other papers and this handbook. Do
not use child seats without instructions.
❒Always check the seat belt is well fastened by
pulling on it.
❒Only one child is to be strapped into each seat;
never carry two children using one child seat.
❒Always check the seat belts do not rest on the
child's neck.
❒While travelling, do not let the child sit incorrectly
or release the belts.
❒Never carry children on your lap, even newborns.
No-one can hold a child in the event of an
accident.
❒In the event of an accident, replace the child seat
with a new one.
WARNING
Do not arrange child seats on the front
seat in cars fitted with passenger's air
bag. Children must never travel on the front
seat .

ISOFIX CHILD SEAT ASSEMBLY
SETUP(for versions/markets, where provided)
Provisions are made on some versions of the vehicle
to fit Universal Isofix child seats. Isofix is a new
European standardised system for carrying children
safely.Isofix systems can be fitted alongside traditional child
seats.
ig. 107 displays an example of a child seat.
The Universal Isofix child seat covers weight group 1.
Specific Isofix systems are provided for the other
weight groups and may be used only if specifically
designed, tested and approved for use on this vehicle
(see list attached to the child seat).
Due to its different attachment system, the child seat
must be secured using the dedicated lower metal
rings A fig. 108 , located between the rear cushion
and backrest. After removing the parcel shelf, secure
the upper belt (provided with the child seat) to the
dedicated ring B fig. 109 (one per side) located
behind the rear seat backrest.

FRONT AIRBAG DRIVER'S SIDE
This consists of an instant-inflating bag contained in a
special compartment in the centre of the steering
wheel fig. 110.
FRONT AIRBAG PASSENGER'S SIDE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This consists of an instantly inflating bag contained in
a special compartment in the dashboard: this bag
has a larger volume than the driver's.fig. 111
WARNING
SEVERE DANGER: Do not put cradle
seats facing backwards on the front seat
if the front passenger airbag is enabled.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the child. Always
deactivate the passenger airbag when placing a
child seat on the front seat . Also, the passenger
seat should be as far back as possible to avoid
contact between the child seat and the
dashboard. Although this is not mandatory by
law, the airbag should be immediately
reactivated when children are no longer carried
to ensure better protection for adults.

MANUAL DEACTIVATION OF
PASSENGER'S FRONT AIRBAG AND SIDE
BAG
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Whenever a child needs to be carried on the front
seat, the passenger's front airbag and side bags
(for versions/markets where provided) can be
deactivated.
The warning light
on the instrument panel stays
on until the passenger's front airbag and side bags
(for versions/markets where provided) are
reactivated.
IMPORTANT Refer to "Digital display" and
“Multifunction display” in the “Know your vehicle”
section to manually deactivate the passenger's front
airbag and side bags (for versions/markets, where
provided).
SIDE BAGS(for versions/markets, where provided)
On some versions, the vehicle may be fitted with
driver and passenger's front side bags.
Side bags protect 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 vehicle.
Non-activation of side bags in other types of
collisions (head-on collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs,
etc...) is not an indication of system malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the bags to inflate
in the event of a side-on collision. The bags inflate
instantaneously, placing themselves between the
occupant's body and the structures which could
cause injury. They deflate immediately afterwards.
Side bags are not a replacement of, but rather a
complement to, seat belts, which you are
recommended to wear at all times, as specified by
law in Europe and most non-European countries.
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.

WARNING
Airbags may be deployed if another
vehicle crashes into yours if the key is
inserted and on, even if the engine is not
running and your vehicle is standing. For this
reason, children must never sit on the front
seat , even if when standing. On the other hand,
if the key is inser ted and at STOP, none of the
safety devices (airbag or pretensioners) will
be deployed in a collision. Non-deployment of
the devices in this case does not indicate a
system fault .
WARNING
Have the airbag system checked by a
Fiat Dealership if the car was stolen, if
theft was attempted, or if the car was subjected
to vandalism or flooding.
WARNING
When the ignition key is turned to MAR,
the warning light
(with passenger's
front airbag activated) comes on and flashes for
a few seconds to remind you that the
passenger's airbag will be deployed in a crash,
after which it should go off.
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
Airbags do not replace seat belts, but
increase their efficiency. Furthermore,
since front airbags are not deployed in
low-speed head-on collisions, side-on impacts,
rear-end shunts or roll-overs, the passengers are
protected only by the seat belts which must
therefore be fastened at all times.
