2017 FIAT FIORINO light

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

FITTING A CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
WITH SEAT BELTS
WARNING
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.
WARNING
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 compar tment . In this way, in the case
of sudden braking or an accident , it will not
cause injuries to the occupants.
WARNING
After installing a child restraint system,
do not move the seat : always remove
the child restraint system before making any
adjustment .
WARNING
Always make sure that the diagonal
section of the seat belt does not pass
under the arms or behind the back of the child.
In the event of an accident the seat belt will
not be able to secure the child, with the risk of
injury, including fatal injury.Therefore the
child must always wear the seat belt correctly.
WARNING
The figures are only examples for fitting
purposes. Fit the child restraint system
according to the instructions, which must be
included.
GROUP 0 and 0+
Infants up to 13 kg must be carried with a rearward
facing child restraint system of the type shown in
fig. 120 which, supporting the head, does not induce
stress on the neck in the event of sudden
decelerations.
The rear facing child restraint system is restrained by
the vehicle seat belts, as shown in fig. 120 and it
must restrain the child in turn with its own belts.

GROUP 1
Children of weight from 9 to 18 kg may be
transported in forward facing child restraint systems
fig. 121.GROUP 2
Children from 15 to 25 kg may use the vehicle seat
belts directly fig. 122.
In this case, the child restraint system is used to
position the child correctly with respect to the seat
belts so that the diagonal belt section crosses the
child’s chest and not the neck, and the lower part is
snug on the pelvis not the abdomen.

INSTALLING AN ISOFIX SEAT
(for versions/markets, where provided)On some versions the external rear seats are
equipped with ISOFIX attachments, for fitting child
restraint systems quickly, simply and safely.
The ISOFIX system lets you install the ISOFIX child
restraining system without using the car seat belts
but connecting them directly to the carseat with
three anchors in the car.
Traditional child restraint systems can be fitted
alongside Isofix child restraint systems on different
seats in the same vehicle.
As an example, fig. 124 shows an example of a
Universal Isofix child restraint system for weight
group: 1.
WARNING The fig. 124 is indicative and for
assembly purposes only. Fit the child restraint system
according to the instructions, which must be
included.
The other weight groups are covered by specific
ISOFIX child restraint systems, which can be used
only if specifically tested and approved for this vehicle
(see list of vehicles provided with the child restraint
system).
To install an ISOFIX child restraint system, attach it
to the two metal anchorages A fig. 125 located
where the rear seat cushion meets the backrest, then
fix the upper strap (available together with the
restraint system) to the dedicated anchorage
B fig. 126 located at the bottom behind the backrest.
Remember that, in the case of Universal Isofix child
seats, you can use all seats bearing the marking
ECE R44 (R44/03 or later updates) "Universal Isofix".
