WARNING
77)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 injury to the passengers.
78)Always drive with your hands on the rim of the steering wheel so that the airbag can inflate freely if required. Do not drive bent over the
steering wheel, but rather sit upright with your back firmly resting against the seat back.
79)The airbag deployment threshold is higher than that of the pretensioners. For collisions in the range between the two thresholds, it is
normal for only the pretensioners to be activated.
80)The airbag does not replace seat belts but increases their efficiency. Because front airbags are not deployed for low-speed crashes, side
collisions, rear-end shunts or rollovers, occupants are protected, in addition to any side bags, only by their seat belts, which must therefore
always be fastened.
81)In some versions, in the event of a failure of the
LED (located on the front ceiling light), thewarning light on the instrument panel
turns on and the passenger side airbags are deactivated.
82)When there is an active passenger airbag, DO NOT install rearward facing child restraint systems on the front seat. Deployment of the
airbag in a crash could cause fatal injuries to the child regardless of the severity of the collision. Therefore, always deactivate the passenger
side airbag when a rearward facing child restraint system is installed on the front passenger seat. The front passenger seat must also be
positioned back as far as possible in order to prevent the child restraint system from coming into contact with the dashboard. Immediately
reactivate the passenger airbag as soon as the child restraint system has been removed.

PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE VEHICLE AT THE END OF
ITS LIFE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Fiat has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its production
processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly "eco-compatible". To assure customers of the best possible
service in terms of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Directive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the
end of their life, Fiat is offering their customers the opportunity of handing over their vehicle (*) at the end of its life without
incurring any additional costs.
The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over, the last keeper or owner should not incur any expenses
as a result of it having a zero or negative market value. In particular, in almost all European Union countries, until 1st January
2007, vehicles registered after 1st July 2002 will be collected free of charge, whilst from 2007 collection will be free of charge
irrespective of the year of registration as long as the vehicle contains its basic components (in particular, the engine and
bodywork) and has no additional waste.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, contact a Fiat Dealership or authorised collection and
scrapping centres. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality service for the collection, treatment and
recycling of vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from a Fiat or Fiat Commercial Vehicle
Dealership or by calling the freephone number 00800 3428 0000 or by going on the Fiat website.
(*) Vehicle for transporting passengers with a maximum of nine seats and a total permitted weight of 3.5 t
