PRETENSIONERS
AND FORCE LIMITER
SYSTEM
(where provided)
132) 133) 134) 135) 136)
69) 70) 71) 72)
The front seat belts each have a
pre-tensioner system and force limiter
system (Single cab and Club cab).
The front seat belts and the rear outer
seat belts each have a pre-tensioner
system and force limiter system (Double
cab).
Pretensioner system
When the ignition switch or the
operation mode is under the following
conditions, if there is a frontal impact or
a side impact (vehicles equipped with
SRS side airbags and SRS curtain
airbags) severe enough to injure the
driver and/or front passenger, or when
a rollover or overturning of the vehicle is
detected (if so equipped), the
pretensioner system will retract their
respective seat belts instantaneously,
thus maximizing the seat belt’s
effectiveness.
Except for vehicles equipped with the
keyless operation system: the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START”
position.
Vehicles equipped with the keyless
operation system: the operation mode
is in ON.NOTE The pretensioner seat belts will
be activated if the vehicle suffers a
severe impact, even if the seat belts are
not worn.
NOTE The pretensioner seat belts are
designed to work only once. After the
pretensioner seat belts have been
activated, we recommend you to have
them replaced by a Fiat Dealership.
SRS warning lamp (where provided)
This warning lamp is shared by the SRS
airbags and the pre-tensioner seat
belts. Refer to “SRS warning lamp”.
Force limiter system
In the event of a collision, each force
limiter system will effectively absorb the
load applied to the seat belt so as to
minimize the impact to the passenger.
WARNING
132)Each seat belt must be used by only
one person. Never travel with a child sitting
on the passenger's lap and a single belt to
protect them both fig. 158. In general, do
not place any objects between the person
and the belt.
133)The pretensioner may be used only
once. After it is triggered, have it replaced
at a Fiat Dealership.
134)Removing or otherwise tampering
with pretensioner and seat belt
components is strictly prohibited. Any
intervention on these components must be
performed by qualified and authorised
technicians. Always go to a Fiat Dealership.135)For maximum safety, keep the
backrest upright, lean back into it and
make sure the seat belt fits closely across
your chest and pelvis. Always fasten the
seat belts for both the front and rear seats!
Travelling without wearing seat belts will
increase the risk of serious injury and even
death in the event of an accident.
136)If the belt has been subjected to high
levels of stress, for example after an
accident, it should be changed completely
together with the attachments, attachment
fixing screws and the pretensioner. In fact,
even if the belt has no visible defects, it
may have lost its resilience.
IMPORTANT
69)To obtain the best results from your
pretensioner seat belt, make sure you have
adjusted your seat correctly and wear your
seat belt properly.
70)Installation of audio equipment or
repairs in the vicinity of the pretensioner
seat belts or floor console must be
performed in line with FCA Italy S.p.A.
guidelines. It is important to do so because
the work could affect the pretensioner
systems.
71)If you need to scrap the vehicle, please
consult a Fiat Dealership. It is important to
do so because unexpected activation of
the pretensioner seat belts could cause
injuries.

and will not operate.
We recommend you to consult a Fiat
Dealership.
IMPORTANT
102)If the vehicle will be stopped for a long
time or if you will leave the vehicle
unattended, stop the engine.
103)Observe the following precautions
when the engine is stopped automatically.
Otherwise, an unexpected accident might
occur when the engine restarts
automatically: do not depress the
accelerator pedal to race the engine while
the vehicle is stopped (regardless of
whether the engine is running or stopped).
Otherwise, an unexpected accident might
occur when the engine restarts
automatically; when the engine is
automatically stopped, do not attempt to
exit the vehicle. Because the engine
restarts automatically when the driver’s
seat belt is unfastened or the driver’s door
is opened, an unexpected accident might
occur when the vehicle starts moving; do
not move the gearshift lever to a position
other than the “N” (Neutral) position. If the
gearshift lever is moved to a position other
than the “N” (Neutral) position, the indicator
lamp/indicator display blinks and the buzzer
sounds. If the gearshift lever is returned to
the “N” (Neutral) position, the indicator
lamp stops blinking and the buzzer stops
sounding. The engine will not restart if the
gearshift lever is in a position other than the
“N” (Neutral) position.
