the three following cases:
universal ISOFIX with 3 couplings
facing forward;
semi-universal ISOFIX with
2 couplings;
specific.
For the last two, check that your child
restraint system can be installed by
referring to the list of compatible
vehicles.
Fit the child restraint system with the
ISOFIX anchors, where provided. The
ISOFIX system ensures simple, fast and
safe installation.
The ISOFIX system consists of 2 rings
and, in some cases, a third ring.The two rings 1 fig. 195, shown by a
label
, are located between the
backrest and the seat cushion.
To facilitate and lock your child seat to
ring 1, use its access guide 2.
Child seat coupling rings facing
forward for rear side positions: the
3rd ring is used to hook the upper seat
belt found in some child seats.
Place the headrest in the upper
position or remove it;
pass belt 3 fig. 196 (provided with
the seat) between the two rear headrest
rods;
fasten hook 4 onto ring 5 fig. 196,

SAFETY

(2)Move the front seat as far forward as possible to install the child seat backwards from driving direction, then move it back to
maximum so it does not come into contact with the child seat.
(3)Child seat facing forward: position the child seat backrest in contact with the seat backrest. In any case, remove the rear
seat headrest that the child seat is positioned against. This should be done before positioning the child restraint system (refer to
the "Rear headrest" paragraph in the "Knowing your vehicle” chapter). Do not move the seat in front of the child back more
than half the distance and do not incline it more than 25°.
WARNING
120)To prevent opening the door from the
inside, use the safety device (refer to the
"Child safety” paragraph in the “Knowing
your vehicle” chapter).
121)A collision at 50 Km/h is the
equivalent of falling 10 meters. Never hold
a child in your arms or on your knees, in
case of an accident you would never be
able to hold him even if you have your seat
bets fastened.
122)Never leave the vehicle unguarded
with the electronic key and a child, a
handicapped person or an animal inside,
even for a short time. This could result in
your own safety or that of others who
could start the engine, setting in motion
equipment such as the electric windows or
even locking the doors. Moreover, in hot
and/or sunny weather, the vehicle's interior
temperature will increase rapidly. Risk of
death or serious injury.123)Never leave a child alone in the
vehicle. Make sure the child always has
his/her seat belt fastened and correctly
adjusted. Avoid too heavy clothing that
causes the belts to be loose. Never allow
the child to put his/her head or arm out the
window. Make sure the child is seated
correctly throughout the trip. especially
when asleep.
124)Make sure the child seat or his/her
feet do not prevent the front seat from
locking into place correctly. Refer to the
"Front seat" paragraph in the "Knowing
your vehicle” chapter. Make sure that the
child seat installed in the vehicle is not at
risk of coming out of its housing. If you
have to remove the head rest, make sure it
is positioned so it is not thrown about in
case of abrupt braking or collision. Always
fasten the child seat even if you are not
using it so it is not thrown about in case of
abrupt braking or collision.
125)RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY: before installing a rear-facing child
restraint system in the front passenger
seat, check that the air bag has been
correctly deactivated (refer to the
"Passenger side airbag and child restraint
systems" paragraph in this chapter).
126)Install the child seat preferably in one
of the rear seats.127)Never install a child seat on the rear
centre seat. RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
128)Do not use child seats that could
unlock the belt holding it in place: the child
seat base must not rest on the seat belt
buckle and/or housing.
129)The seat belt must never be loose or
twisted. Never pass the shoulder belt
under your arm or behind your back.
Check that the belt has not been damaged
by sharp edges. If the seat belt is not
working normally, it will not protect the
child. Contact a Fiat Dealership. Do not
use this seat until the belt has been
repaired.
130)Using a child seat inappropriate for
this vehicle will not properly protect the
child. You risk causing him/her serious
injury or death.
