Seat belt of the rear central seat
Unlike other seat belts, this one has two
buckles and two metal tongues. In this
manner, release the seat belt to recline
a larger portion (2/3) of the backrest
(see the "Seats" chapter for more
information).
To fasten the seat belt follow the below
procedure:
Place yourself on the central seat
and normally pull out the seat belt from
top rewinder without twisting it;
In the left buckle (without the red
unlock button on the slot) insert the first
tongue which is located at the end of
the diagonal section of the seat belt;
In the right buckle insert the tongue
which is located at the end of the
abdominal section of the belt.
To unfasten the seat belt, unlock the
tongue of the abdominal section
pressing the red button.
IMPORTANT With the rear seat
backrest in vertical position, ensure that
the tongue which is located at the end
of the diagonal section of the central
seat belt is always properly hooked to
the left buckle (without the red unlock
button on the slot).
ADJUSTING THE SEAT
BELT HEIGHT
64) 65)
Three different adjustments in height are
provided.
To carry out window height adjustment,
from the top to the bottom, button 1fig. 58 must be pressed, and the handle
must be slid downwards.
To carry out window height adjustment,
from the top to the bottom, the handle
must be slid (without pressing
anything).
Always adjust the height of the seat
belts to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the event of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.
WARNING
62)Never press button 3 when travelling.

63)Remember that, in the event of an
accident, the rear seat passengers not
wearing seat belts are exposed to a very
serious risk and also represent a serious
danger for the front seat occupants.
64)Make height adjustment of the seat
belts when the car is stationary.
65)After the height adjustment, always
check that the grip is locked in one of the
preset positions. To do this, with buttons 1
released, exert further pressure
downwards to allow the locking device to
click if the grip has not been released in
one of the possible positions.SBR (SEAT BELT
REMINDER) SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The SBR system informs the driver that
his/her safety belt is not fastened.
The system signals unfastened seat
belts with visual warnings ( warning light
on in the instrument panel) and an
acoustic signal (see the following
paragraphs).
NOTE To deactivate the acoustic
warning permanently go to a Fiat
Dealership. The acoustic warning can
be reactivated at any time through the
display Menu (see the "Display"
paragraph in the “Knowing the
instrument panel” chapter).
FRONT SEAT BELT
WARNING LIGHT
BEHAVIOUR
When the ignition device is turned to
MAR, warning light
(see fig. 59 )
comes on for a few seconds,
regardless of the status of the front seat
belts.
With vehicle at a standstill, if the driver
side seat belt or the passenger side
seat belt (for versions/markets, where
provided) is unfastened (with occupant
seated), the warning light stays on
constantly.As soon as the threshold of 8 km/h is
exceeded for a few seconds with driver
or passenger side seat belts (for
versions/markets, where provided)
unfastened, an acoustic warning is
activated together with the flashing of
the
warning light for approximately
105 seconds.
When this cycle of warnings is activated
it will stay on for its entire length
(regardless of the vehicle speed) or until
the seat belts are fastened again.
The passenger side indication (for
versions/markets, where provided) is
interrupted also if the passenger leaves
the vehicle.

SAFETY
Main recommendations to carry
children safely
Install the child restraint systems on
the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of an
impact.
Keep children in rearward facing child
restraint systems for as long as
possible, until 3–4 years old if possible.
If the passenger's front airbag is
deactivated always check the
dedicated warning light on the trim
located on the dashboard to make sure
that it has actually been deactivated.
Carefully follow the instructions
supplied with the child restraint system.
Keep the instructions in the vehicle
along with the other documents and
this handbook. Do not use
second-hand child restraint systems
without instructions.
Only one child is to be strapped into
each restraint system; never carry two
children using one child restraint
system.
Always check that the seat belts do
not rest on the child’s neck.
Always check that the seat belt is
well fastened by pulling on it.
While travelling, do not let the child
sit incorrectly or unfasten the belts.
Never allow a child to put the belt's
diagonal section under an arm or
behind their back.
Never carry children on your lap,
even newborns. No one can hold a
child in the case of an accident.
In the event of an accident, replace
the child restraint system with a new
one. In addition, and depending on the
type of child restraint system installed,
replace the seat belt with which the
child restraint system was connected.
WARNING
70)SEVERE DANGER When a front
passenger airbag is fitted, do not install
rearward facing child restraint systems on
the front passenger seat. Deployment of
the airbag in an accident could cause fatal
injuries to the child regardless of the
severity of the collision. It is advisable to
always carry children in a child restraint
system on the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of a
collision.
71)On the sun visor there is a label with
suitable symbols reminding the user that it
is compulsory to deactivate the airbag if a
rearward facing child restraint system is
fitted. Always comply with the instructions
on the passenger side sun visor (see the
"Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) -
Airbag" paragraph).72)Should it be necessary to carry a child
on the passenger side front seat in a rear
facing child restraint system, the passenger
side front airbag and side bag must be
deactivated through the Connect system
main menu (see the "Supplementary
Restraint System (SRS) - Airbag"
paragraph), verifying deactivation by
checking whether the
LED has
illuminated on the front ceiling light. Move
the passenger's seat as far back as
possible to avoid contact between the
child seat and the dashboard.
73)Do not move the front or rear seat if a
child is seated on it or on the dedicated
child restraint system
74)Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an
accident the child restraint system may
become loose and the child may be
injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint
system for newborns or children, strictly
comply with the instructions provided by
the Manufacturer.
75)When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or with
the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from
the vehicle. Do not leave it unsecured
inside the passenger compartment. In this
way, in the case of sudden braking or an
accident, it will not cause injuries to the
occupants.
76)After installing a child restraint system,
do not move the seat: always remove the
child restraint system before making any
adjustment.
