KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE
In-depth knowledge of your new vehicle
starts here.
The handbook that you are reading
simply and directly explains how it is
made and how it works.
That’s why we advise you to read it
seated comfortably on board, so that
you can see what is described here for
yourself.THE KEYS.................14

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE

5)For safety reasons, always open/close
doors when the vehicle is stopped.
6)NEVER leave children unattended inside
the vehicle, let alone leave it with the doors
unlocked in a place that children can
access easily. Children may seriously, or
even fatally, injure themselves. Also ensure
that children do not inadvertently operate
the parking brake or the brake pedal.
7)Opening or closing the door, as for all
opening parts of the vehicle, must be done
keeping in mind the precautions for use
concerning this operation: check that there
is no one, no part of a body, an animal or
object that could come into contact during
this manoeuvre. Only use the inside and
outside handles to manoeuvre the door.
Use caution in both opening and closing
the doors. Caution: when the vehicle is
parked on an incline, open or close the
door carefully until it locks in place. Always
make sure the sliding door is completely
closed before the vehicle starts moving.
8)Before opening a door, ensure that you
can do it in conditions of safety.
9)You must not open the left-hand sliding
side door with the fuel flap open while
refuelling. Check that the fuel flap is closed
while opening/closing the sliding side door
to avoid damage.
10)Do not leave the sliding side door open
when the vehicle is parked on a gradient. A
knock could release the latch leaving the
door free to move forward.
11)Before leaving the vehicle parked with
sliding doors open, always check that the
latch is engaged.
12)Always use this device when carrying
children.13)The spring-loaded system is designed
for optimum usage. Accidental knocks or a
strong gust of wind may release the
springs, forcing the doors to close.
14)When closing, shut the right hand
swing door fully before you close the left
hand swing door. Never shut the two doors
at the same time.
15)In case of wind, do not leave the rear
swing doors open. Risk of injury.
16)When you stop by the side of the road,
if the tailgate is completely open, the rear
lights might not be visible. Warn other road
users that your vehicle is there by placing
the pre-signal triangle or other device
allowed by law in the country you are
driving in.HEADRESTS

adjust the headrest. For maximum
safety, the distance between the head
and headrest must be minimum;
adjust cushion (seat) height. This
adjustment optimises visibility;
adjust the steering wheel.

Sit firmly on the backrest.
The chest belt 1 fig. 169 must be as
close as possible to the neck without
touching it.
The waist belt 2 fig. 169 must be
resting on the thighs and against the
pelvis.
The belt must adhere as much as
possible to the body. (e.g. avoid
wearing clothes that are too bulky or
placing obstacles between the body
and belt).Locking
Pull out the belt slowly without forcing it
and insert the tab 3 fig. 170 into the
buckle 5 (make sure it is locked by
pulling the tab 3).
Repeat the operation if the seat belt
blocks.
If the belt is completely blocked, pull
slowly but firmly and draw out at least
3 cm. Let it rewind normally then pull it
out again. If the problem persists,
contact a Fiat Dealership.

The height-adjustable backrest and
seat belt track is recommended to
position the belt at the centre of the
shoulder. It must never rest on the neck
or arm. Choose an encompassing child
seat for better side protection.
INSTALLING A CHILD RESTRAINT
SEAT
Some child seats cannot be installed.
The diagrams on the following pages
show the child seat attachment
position.
Before using a child restraint system,
make sure that it can be fitted.
In the front seat
Carrying children in the front passenger
seat is country-specific. Check with the
current laws and follow the indications
in the following diagram.
Before installing a child seat in this seat
(if authorised):
lower the seat belt completely;
move the seat back completely;
incline the backrest slightly (about
25°);
for vehicles that are able to do so,
raise the seat as high as possible.
Raise headrest as far up as possible so
that it does not interfere with the child
restraint system (refer to the "Front
headrest" paragraph in the "Knowing
your vehicle” chapter).
After installing the child seat, you can
move the seat forwards again (to leave
enough space in the rear for other
passengers or child seats). With a
rear-facing child restraint system, it
should not touch the dashboard or
anything in front of it.
Do not change any other adjustments
after installing the child seat.
In the rear side seat
The cot is installed crosswise with
respect to the vehicle and takes up at
least two seats. Place the child's head
opposite the door. Move the front seat
as far forward as possible to install the
child seat backwards from driving
direction, then move it back to
maximum so it does not come into
contact with the child seat.
For the safety of children who are facing
forward, do not move the seat in front
of the child back farther than the centre
of its travel, do not incline the backrest
excessively (25° at most) and raise the
seat up as far as possible.Remove the headrest from the rear seat
with the child restraint system on it
(refer to the "Rear headrest" paragraph
in the "Knowing your vehicle” chapter).
This must be done before positioning
the child seat.
Make sure that the forward-facing child
restraint system is resting against the
seat backrest.
In the rear central seat
Make sure the seat belt is adapted to
your child seat. Consult a Fiat
Dealership.

FITTING A CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
WITH SEAT BELTS
128) 129)
The seat belt must be adjusted to
ensure it works in case of abrupt
braking or collision. Comply with the
belt direction indicated by the child
restraint system manufacturer.
Check that the seat belt is fastened
correctly.
Check that the child seat is correctly
locked in place by moving it left/right
and forwards/backwards: the seat
should remain firmly in place. Make sure
that the child restraint system is not
installed crosswise and is not resting
against a window.
