SAFETY

PASSENGER SIDE FRONT
AIRBAG
(for versions/markets, where provided)
It consists of an instantly inflating bag
contained in a special recess in the
dashboard fig. 120 which has a larger
volume than that of the driver.
FRONT PASSENGER SIDE
AIRBAG AND CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEMS
101)
Rearward facing child restraint systems
mustNEVERbe fitted on the front
seat with an active passenger airbag
since in the event of an impact the
airbag activation may cause fatal
injuries to the transported child.
ALWAYScomply with the instructions
on the label stuck on the passenger
side sun visor fig. 121.Manual deactivation of
front passenger side
airbag and side bag
(for versions/markets, where provided)
If a child must necessarily be carried on
the front seat in a rear-facing child
restraint system, the front passenger
airbag and side bag (for versions/
markets, where provided) can be
deactivated.
IMPORTANT To manually deactivate the
front passenger airbag and side bag
(for versions/markets, where provided),
refer to the "Display" paragraph in the
"Knowing the instrument panel"
chapter. The LED on the button
switches on in case of deactivation.
The LED that corresponds to the
symbol
fig. 122 on the dashboard
indicates the passenger's protection
status. If the LED is off, the passenger
side protection is activated.When the front passenger airbag and
side bag (for versions/markets, where
provided) are activated again, the
warning light turns off.
When the vehicle is started (key in MAR
position), the LED turns on for approx.
8 seconds, provided that at least 5
seconds have elapsed from the
previous switching off. If not, contact a
Fiat Dealership.
If the vehicle is switched off/on again in
less than 5 seconds the LED may
remain off. In this case, to check
correct LED operation, switch the
vehicle off, wait at least 5 seconds and
switch on again.
During the first 8 seconds, the
activation of the LED does not actually
show the passenger protection status,
but only checks its correct operation.

SAFETY

IMPORTANT A small amount of dust
will be released when the airbags
are deployed. The dust is not harmful
and does not indicate the beginning of
a fire. Furthermore, the surface of the
deployed bag and the interior of the
vehicle may be covered in a dusty
residue: this may irritate your skin and
eyes. Wash with mild soap and water in
the event of exposure.
IMPORTANT Should an accident occur
in which any of the safety devices are
activated, 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
operation concerning the airbags must
be carried out only at Fiat Dealerships.
If you are having the vehicle scrapped,
have the system deactivated at a Fiat
Dealership first. If the vehicle changes
ownership, the new owner must be
informed of how to use the airbags and
the above warnings and also be given
this "Owner Handbook".
IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front
airbags and front side bags are
deployed differently according to the
type of collision. Failure to activate one
or more of the devices does not
indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
100)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.
101)When there is an active passenger
airbag, DO NOT install rearward 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.
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.
102)Never rest head, arms and elbows on
the doors, on the windows and in the
side air bag head protection area (Window
Bag) to prevent possible injuries during
inflation phase.
103)Never lean your head, arms or elbows
out of the window.104)If when turning the key to MAR the
warning light
does not turn on or if
it stays on when travelling (together with
the message on the multifunction display,
for versions/markets where provided), there
could be a fault in the safety systems; in
this event, airbags or pretensioners may
not trigger in the case of impact or, in
a lower number of cases, they could be
triggered accidentally. Contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately to have the system
checked.
105)Do not cover the backrest of the front
or rear seats with covers which are not
suitable for use with side bags.
106)Do not travel carrying objects in your
lap, in front of your chest or between
your lips (pipe, pencils, etc.): they could
cause severe injury if the airbag is
deployed.
107)Always drive keeping your hands on
the steering wheel rim so the airbag can
inflate freely if necessary. Do not drive with
your body bent forward. Keep your back
straight against the backrest.
116
SAFETY

108)Airbags may be deployed if another
vehicle crashes into yours if the key is
inserted and on, even if the engine is not
running and your vehicle is standing.
Therefore, even if the car is stationary,
when an active front passenger airbag is
fitted, DO NOT install rear facing child
restraint systems on the front passenger
seat. Deployment of the airbag following an
impact could cause fatal injuries to the
child. 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. Also remember that, if
the key is turned to STOP, none of the
safety devices (airbags or pretensioners)
will be deployed in the event of collision.
Non-deployment in such cases does
not indicate a system malfunction.
109)Have the airbag system checked by a
Fiat Dealership if the car was stolen, if
theft was attempted, or if the car was
subjected to vandalism or flooding.
110)By turning the ignition key to MAR
position, the LED on the
button located
on the dashboard lights up (the time it
stays lit up can vary depending on the
market), to check that the button LED is
working correctly.
111)Do not wash the seats with water or
pressurised steam (wash by hand or at
automatic seat washing stations).112)The front airbag is designed to be
deployed for impacts of a greater intensity
than for the pretensioners. For impacts
whose intensity falls between the two
levels, normally, only the pretensioners will
be activated.
113)Do not affix rigid objects to the
garment hooks or support handles.
114)The airbag does not replace seat
belts but increases their efficiency.
Furthermore, since front airbags are not
deployed in low-speed frontal impacts,
side impacts, rear shunts or roll-overs, the
passengers are protected only by the
seat belts which must therefore be
fastened at all times.
115)In some versions, in the event of a
LED
OFFfailure (located on the
dashboard trim), thewarning light on
the instrument panel turns on and the
passenger side bags are deactivated. In
some versions, in the event of a LED
ONfailure (located on the dashboard
trim), thelight on the console turns on.

When necessary, you can engage
1st ,RorNwith the engine off, the key
in the MAR-ON position and the brake
pressed. In this case, gear shifts must
be made allowing at least 5 minutes
to elapse between one gear shift and
the next to safeguard the operation
of the hydraulic system and the pump
in particular;
for hill starts, accelerating gradually
but fully straight after having released
the handbrake or the brake pedal
allows the engine to greatly increase the
number of revs and tackle steeper
slopes with more torque at the wheels.
on gradients > 5% it is prohibited
to engage the 2ndgear with vehicle
stationary.
HANDBRAKE
Handbrake engagement:The
handbrake lever is located to the left of
the driver's seat. Pull the lever upwards
to engage the handbrake and ensure
that the vehicle does not move.
Handbrake disengagement:slightly
raise the lever, hold the button A
pressed and check that the
warning light switches off on the
instrument panel.
Press the brake pedal when carrying
out this operation to prevent the vehicle
from moving accidentally.IMPORTANT Make sure that the
handbrake is engaged in such a way as
to ensure the stationing of the vehicle,
especially in the case of steep slopes
and full load.
IMPORTANT Apply the handbrake only
when the vehicle is at a standstill or
with the vehicle in motion only in the
event of a failure in the hydraulic
system. If exceptional use is made of
the handbrake with the vehicle in
motion, moderate traction is advisable
in order not to cause locking of the
rear end with consequent swerving of
the vehicle.
WARNING
117)Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle. Always remove the ignition key
when leaving the vehicle and take it out
with you.
WARNING
22)If the vehicle is equipped with
self-levelling air suspension, always check
that there is sufficient space above the roof
and around the vehicle when parking.
Indeed, the vehicle could raise (or lower)
automatically depending on load or
temperature changes.
MANUAL
TRANSMISSION
To engage the gears, press the clutch
pedal fully and put the shift lever into
the required position (the diagram
is shown on the knob A fig. 126).
To engage 6th gear (where provided),
operate the lever by pressing it towards
the right in order to avoid engaging
4th gear by mistake. The action is
similar for shifting from 6th gear to 5th
gear.
IMPORTANT Reverse may only be
engaged when the vehicle is at a
standstill. With the engine running, wait
for at least 2 seconds with the clutch
pedal fully pressed before engaging
reverse to prevent damage to the gears
and grating.
