Do not place a cradle seat
facing backwards on the
front seat if the passenger side airbag
is enabled. Deployment of the airbag
in an accident could cause fatal in-
juries to the baby regardless of the
severity of the collision. It is advisable
to always carry children in dedicat-
ed child seats on the rear seat, which
is the most protected position in the
event of an accident.
WARNING
SERIOUS HAZARD Should
it be absolutely necessary to
carry a child on the front
seat in a backwards-facing
cradle seat, the passenger’s
front and side airbags should
be deactivated through the setup
menu. Deactivation can be verified by
checking the
“warning light on the
instrument panel. Also, the passen-
ger seat should be as far back as pos-
sible to avoid contact between the
child seat and the dashboard.

The diagram is only an indi-
cation. For assembly, refer to
the instructions supplied with the
child seat.
WARNING
GROUPS 0 e 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried facing
backwards
on a cradle seat, which, by supporting the
head, does not induce stress on the neck
in the event of sharp deceleration.
The cradle is held in place by the car seat
belts fig. 8and in turn it must restrain the
child with its own belts.
GROUPS 1
From 9 kg to 18 kg of weight, children may
be carried facing forwards.

SUITABILITY OF PASSENGER SEATS FOR CHILD SEAT USE
The car complies with the new European Directive 2000/3/EC which governs the
arrangement possibilities for child seats on the various seats of the car as shown in
the following table:Below is a summary of the safety
rules to be followed when carrying
children:
1) The recommended position for in-
stalling child seats is on the rear seat, as
it is the most protected area in the event
of a crash.
2) When disengaging the passenger
airbag, always check the amber warning
light on the instrument panel is perma-
nently on to make sure that the airbag has
actually been deactivated.
3) Carefully follow the instructions that
came with the child seat, which the man-
ufacturer must supply by law. Keep the in-
structions in the car along with the other
documents and this handbook. Do not use
second hand child seats without instruc-
tions.
4) Always check the seat belt is well fas-
tened by pulling on it.
5) Only one child is to be strapped into
each retaining system; never carry two
children using one child seat.
6) Always check the seat belts do not
rest on the child’s neck.
7) While travelling, do not let the child
sit incorrectly or release the belts.
8) Never carry children on your lap, even
newborns. No one, however strong, can
hold a child in the event of an accident.
9) In the event of an accident, replace the
child seat with a new one.

WARNING: Do not put child
seats facing backwards on
the front seat if the passen-
ger’s airbag is enabled
(ON). Deployment of the
airbag in an accident could
cause fatal injuries to the baby.
Should it be absolutely necessary to
place a child seat on the front seat,
always deactivate the passenger
airbag. Also, the passenger seat
should be as far back as possible to
avoid contact between the child seat
and the dashboard. Although this is
not mandatory by law, the airbag
should be immediately reactivated
when children are no longer carried
to ensure better protection for adults.

MANUAL DEACTIVATION
OF FRONT AND SIDE CHEST/
PELVIS PASSENGER AIRBAGS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Whenever a child needs to be carried on
the front seat, the passenger’s front and side
chest/pelvis airbags (for versions/ markets,
where provided) must be deactivated.
The warning light
“on the instrument
panel stays on steadily until the passenger’s
front and side chest airbags (for versions/
markets, where provided) are re-activated.
To manually deactivate the
passenger’s front and side
chest/pelvis airbags (for versions/mar -
kets, where provided), refer to para-
graphs “Digital display” and “Mul -
tifunction display” in the section
“Dashboard and controls”.
WARNING
SIDE AIRBAGS
The car is fitted with front side airbags
for driver and passenger (for versions/
mar kets, where provided) for protecting
the chest and pelvis, and window bags
(for versions/markets, where provided)
for protecting the heads of front and rear
passengers.
Side airbags (for versions/markets, where
provided) protect car occupants from
side-on crashes of medium/high severity
by placing the bag between the occupant
and the internal parts of the side structure
of the car.
Non-activation of side bags in other types
of collisions (head-on collisions, rear
shunts, roll-overs, etc…) is not an indi-
cation of system malfunction.
In the event of a side-on crash, an elec-
tronic control unit triggers the inflation of
the bag if required. The cushion immedi-
ately inflates, placing itself between the oc-
cupant’s body and structures that could
cause injuries, the cushion deflates Imme-
diately afterwards.
Side bags (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 spec-
ified by law in Europe and most non-Eu-
ropean countries.FRONT SIDE AIRBAGS
- CHEST AND PELVIS
ZONE PROTECTION fig. 17
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Front side airbags are housed in the seat
backrests. They consist of an instant-in-
flation bag designed to increase protection
of the occupants’ chest and pelvis zone in
the event of a side-on crash of medium/
high severity.

SAFETY
IMPORTANT The front airbags and/or
side bags may be deployed if the car is sub-
ject to heavy knocks involving the under-
body area, such as violent shocks against
steps, kerbs or low obstacles, the car
falling into big holes or hollows in the road.
IMPORTANT A small amount of dust will
be released when the airbags are de-
ployed. The dust is not harmful and does
not indicate the beginning of a fire. Fur-
thermore, the surface of the deployed bag
and the interior of the car may be covered
in a dusty residue: this may irritate skin
and eyes. Wash with mild soap and wa-
ter in the event of exposure.
The expiration dates of the explosive
charge and the clock wire are shown on a
specific label contained in the glove box.
Go to a Fiat Dealership to have the de-
vices replaced when the expiration date
approaches.IMPORTANT Should an accident occur in
which any of the safety devices are acti-
vated, take the vehicle to a Fiat Dealership
to have the activated devices replaced and
to have the whole system checked.
Every control, repair and replacement op-
eration concerning the airbags must be
carried out only at Fiat Dealerships.
If you are having the car scrapped, have
the airbag system deactivated at a Fiat
Dealership first. If the car changes own-
ership, the new owner must be informed
of the method of use of the airbags and
the above warnings, and also be given this
“Owner’s Handbook”.
IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front airbags
and front side bags are deployed differ-
ently according to the type of collision.
Non-deployment of one of these devices
does not therefore indicate a system fault. SIDE WINDOW BAGS - HEAD
PROTECTION fig. 18
(for versions/markets, were provided)
These consist of two “curtain” cushions,
one on the right and the other on the left
side of the car, located behind the side
coverings of the roof and covered by ap-
propriate finishings.
Window bags have been designed for pro-
tecting the head of front and rear occu-
pants in the event of a side-on collision,
thanks to the wide cushion inflation surface.
IMPORTANT In the event of a side-on
crash, the system offers the best protec-
tion if you have a correct position on the
seat because this allows the side bags to
inflate correctly.
