SAFETY
OCCUPANT PROTECTION SYSTEMS
Some of the most important safety equipment of the
vehicle comprise the following protection systems:
seat belts;
SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;
head restraints;
child restraint systems;
front, side airbag (for versions/markets, where
provided).
Read the information given the following pages with
the utmost care.
It is of fundamental importance that the protection
systems are used in the correct way to guarantee the
maximum possible safety level for the driver and
the passengers.
For the description of the head restraint adjustment
see the "Head restraints" paragraph in the "Knowing
your vehicle" chapter.
SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
All vehicle seats are equipped with seat belts with
three anchor points and a retractor.
The retractor mechanism operates locking the belt in
the event of sharp braking or strong deceleration
due to an impact.
This allows the belt strap to slide freely and to adapt
to the body of the occupant.
In the event of an accident, the belt will lock
reducing the risk of impact inside the passenger
compartment and of being projected outside the
vehicle. The driver is responsible for respecting, and
ensuring that all the other occupants of the vehicle
also respect, the local laws in force in relation to the
use of the seat belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before setting off.
The seat belt should be worn keeping the chest
straight and rested against the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the tongue A fig. 113
and insert it into the buckle B, until it clicks into
place.
If the seat belt jams during removal, let it rewind for
a short stretch, then pull it out again without jerking.

In Europe the characteristics of child restraint
systems are ruled by the regulation ECE-R44, dividing
them into five weight groups:
Group Weight groups
Group 0 up to 10 kg in weight
Group 0+ up to 13 kg in weight
Group 1 9-18 kg
Group 2 15-25 kg
Group 3 22-36 kg
All restraint devices must bear the certification data,
together with the control mark, on a label solidly
fixed to the child restraint system which must never
be removed.
Lineaccessori Fiat offers child restraint systems for
each weight group. These devices are recommended,
having been specifically designed for Fiat vehicles.
WARNING
SERIOUS DANGER: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 . It is advisable to always carr y children
in a child restraint system on the rear seat ,
which is the most protected position in the
event of a collision.
WARNING
Should it be necessary to carry a child
on the passenger side front seat in a
rearward facing child restraint system, the
passenger side front airbag and side bag (for
versions/markets, where provided) must be
deactivated through the Setup menu.
Deactivation should be verified by checking
whether the
warning light is switched on in
the central dashboard. Move the passenger's
seat as far back as possible to avoid contact
between the child seat and the dashboard.
WARNING
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
"Supplementar y Restraint System (SRS) -
Airbag" paragraph).
WARNING
Do not move the front or rear seat if a
child is seated on it or on the dedicated
child restraint system

Below is a summary of the main safety rules
to be followed when carrying children
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
warning light always lighted on the
central dashboard fig. 127 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.
If the vehicle has been involved in an accident
of medium-high severity, replace the child restraint
system with a new one. In addition, and
depending on the type of child restraint system
installed, replace the isofix anchorages or the seat
belt with which the child restraint system was
connected.
For any child restraint system mounted facing the
vehicle’s direction of travel on the external rear
seats, independently of its weight group, mount it
after removing the corresponding rear seat
headrest. This does NOT apply to child restraint
systems that consist only of a cushion (without
backrest). You should install such child restraint
systems when the corresponding headrest is
mounted.

SUPPLEMENTARY RESTRAINT
SYSTEM (SRS) - AIRBAG
The vehicle may be equipped with:
front driver airbag;
front passenger airbag;
driver and passenger front side bags for pelvis,
chest and shoulder protection (Side bags).
The location of the airbags on the vehicle is marked
by the word "AIRBAG" in the middle of the steering
wheel, on the dashboard, on the side trim or on a
label placed next to the airbag deployment area.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The vehicle is fitted with front airbags for driver and
passenger (for versions/markets where provided).
The front driver/passenger airbags (for versions/
markets, where provided) are designed to protect
the front-seat occupants in the event of head-on
crashes of medium-high severity, by placing the bag
between the occupant and the steering wheel or
dashboard.
Therefore, non-activation in other types of collisions
(side collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) is not
a system malfunction.
An electronic control unit will make the bag inflate in
the event of a frontal impact.
The bag will inflate instantaneously placing itself
between the front occupants body and the
structures which could cause injury. It will deflate
immediately afterwards.
Front driver/passenger airbags (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 specified by law in Europe
and most non-European countries.
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 compromised in
these circumstances.
Front airbags may not activate in the following
situations:
123

frontal impacts against highly deformable objects
not involving the front surface of the vehicle (e.g.
wing collision against guard rail, etc.);
vehicle wedging under other vehicles or protective
barriers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
Failure to activate in the conditions described above
is due to the fact that they may not provide any
additional protection compared with seat belts, so
their activation would be inappropriate. In these
cases, non-deployment does not indicate a system
malfunction.
WARNING
Do not apply stickers or other objects to
the steering wheel, the dashboard in
the passenger side airbag area and the seats.
Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the
passenger side of the dashboard since they
could interfere with correct inflation of the
passenger airbag and also cause serious injur y
to the passengers.
The driver's and passenger's front airbags have been
designed and calibrated to protect front seat
occupants wearing seat belts. At their maximum
inflation, their volume fills most of the space
between the steering wheel and the driver and
between the dashboard and the passenger.
The airbags are not deployed in the event of minor
frontal impacts (for which the restraining actionof the seat belts is sufficient). Seat belts must always
be worn. In the event of frontal impacts they
guarantee correct positioning of the passenger.
FRONT AIRBAG DRIVER'S SIDE
It consists of an instantly inflating bag contained in a
special recess in the centre of the steering wheel
fig. 128.
PASSENGER SIDE FRONT AIRBAG
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This consists of an instantly inflating bag contained in
a special recess in the dashboard: fig. 129 this bag
has a larger volume than that of the driver.
