❒by pressing theorbuttons
select "Yes" (to confirm activation/
deactivation) or "No" (to cancel);
❒press the
button briefly; a
message confirming the selection is

The fig. 85 LED
is located on the
trim in the dashboard: rotating the
ignition key to MAR the LED switches
on for a few seconds. If not, contact
a Fiat Dealership.During the first seconds, the activation
of the LED does not actually show
the passenger protection status, but
only checks its correct operation. After
the check, lasting a few seconds, the
LED shows the condition of the
passenger airbag status (passenger
protection deactivated: LED on
constantly /passenger protection
activated: LED off).

SAFETY
Deactivation of passenger side
airbags: front airbag and side bag
for pelvis-chest-shoulder
protection (for versions/markets,
where provided)
If a child must be carried on the front
seat in rearward facing child restraint
system, the passenger side front airbag
and front side bag for pelvis, chest
and shoulder protection must be
deactivated (for versions/markets,
where provided).
Airbag deactivation procedure
Proceed as follows, using the display
Setup Menu:
❒press the
button and, after the
message "Bag pass: Off" (to deactivate)
or "Bag pass: On" (to activate) is
displayed by pressing buttons
and
, press thebutton again;
❒a confirmation request message will
appear on the display;
88)SEVERE DANGER: when an active
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 impact. Therefore, always
deactivate the passenger side airbag when
a rearward facing child restraint system is
installed on the front passenger seat.
The front passenger seat must also be
positioned back as far as possible in order
to prevent the child restraint system from
coming into contact with the dashboard.
Immediately reactivate the passenger
airbag as soon as the child restraint system
has been removed.
89)When an active passenger airbag is
fitted, DO NOT install rear facing child
restraint systems on the front seat.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the child
regardless of the severity of the impact.
90)If the
warning light does not switch
on when the key is turned to MAR, or
stays on whilst driving, a fault may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In this
case the airbags or pretensioners may not
deploy in an impact or, in a lower number
of cases, they may be deployed
accidentally. Before proceeding, contact a
Fiat Dealership immediately to have the
system checked.
91)On some versions if the
warning
light does not switch on, thewarning
light switches on instead, deactivating
the explosive charges of the passenger
airbag.
92)If a side bag is present, do not cover
the front seat backrests with extra covers.93)Do not travel carrying objects in your
lap, in front of your chest or between your
lips (pipe, pencils, etc.). They could cause
severe injury if the airbag is deployed.
94)If the vehicle has been subject to theft,
attempted theft, vandalism, or flooding,
have the airbag system inspected at a Fiat
Dealership.
95)When the ignition key is inserted and
turned to MAR, airbags may be deployed if
another vehicle crashes into yours, even if
the engine is not running and the vehicle
is stationary. Therefore, even if the vehicle
is stationary, when an active front
passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT install
rearward facing child restraint systems
on the front passenger seat. Deployment of
the airbag following an impact could cause
fatal injuries to the child. Therefore, always
deactivate the passenger side airbag
when a rearward facing child restraint
system is installed on the front passenger
seat. The front passenger seat must also
be positioned back as far as possible in
order to prevent the child restraint system
from coming into contact with the
dashboard. Immediately reactivate the
passenger airbag as soon as the child
restraint system has been removed. Also
remember that, if the key is turned to
STOP, none of the safety devices (airbags
or pretensioners) will be deployed in the
event of collision. Non-deployment in such
cases does not indicate a system
malfunction.96)The
LED indicates the passenger
side airbag protection status. If the LED is
off, passenger side protection is active:
to deactivate it, use the Setup Menu (in this
case the LED lights up). When the engine
is started (ignition key turned to MAR
position), the LED turns on for about 8
seconds, provided that at least 5 seconds
have elapsed from when it was switched
off. If not, contact a Fiat Dealership. If
the engine is switched off/on again in less
than 5 seconds the LED may remain off.
In this case, to check correct LED
operation, switch the engine off, wait for at
least 5 seconds and switch the engine
on again. The LED may light up with
various intensity levels depending on the
vehicle conditions. The intensity may also
vary during the same key cycle.
97)The airbag deployment threshold is
higher than that of the pretensioners. When
the impact is between the two deployment
thresholds, it is normal that pretensioners
only are engaged.
98)The airbag does not replace seat belts,
but increases their efficiency. Because
front airbags are not deployed for
low-speed crashes, side collisions,
rear-end shunts or rollovers, occupants are
protected, in addition to any side bags,
only by their seat belts, which must
therefore always be fastened.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
WARNING
INTERIOR FITTINGS
❒Do not travel with the storage compartments open: they may injure the front seat occupants in the event of an accident.
❒The cigar lighter gets extremely hot. Handle it carefully and make sure that children don’t use it: risk of fire and/or burns.
ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
❒Check that the attachment fixing screws are tight after a few kilometres.
❒Never exceed the maximum permitted loads (see chapter "Technical specifications").
❒Evenly distribute the load and take into account, when driving, the increased responsiveness of the vehicle to side wind.
LAVAZZA 500 ESPRESSO EXPERIENCE SETUP
❒Use the accessory with vehicle stationary.
ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER
❒Take care when fitting additional spoilers, alloy wheel rims or non-standard wheel hubs: they could reduce the ventilation of the brakes and
affect efficiency under sharp, repeated braking or on long descents. Make sure that nothing obstructs the pedal stroke (mats, etc.).
INTERIORS
❒Never use flammable products, such as petroleum ether or modified petrol, to clean the inside of the car. The electrostatic charges which
are generated by rubbing during the cleaning operation may cause a fire.
❒Do not keep aerosol cans in the vehicle: danger of explosion. Aerosol cans must not be exposed to a temperature exceeding 50°C. When
the vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the internal temperature can greatly exceed this value.
❒There must be no obstacles on the floor underneath the pedals; make sure that mats are always flat and do not interfere with the pedals.
SUPPLY
❒Modifications or repairs to the fuel supply system that are not carried out correctly or do not take the system’s technical specifications into
account can cause malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
