DRIVER PROTECTION
LADDER
(for versions/markets, where provided)
On some versions, a fixed ladder fig. 54
is provided to protect the driver from
unstable loads and allow greater
loading capacity from the passenger
side.
COMBI VERSIONS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Fixed partition fig. 55This is located behind the backrest of
the rear seats.
SECURING YOUR LOAD
Hooks (various number, according to
version) are fixed to the floor for easy
securing load.
Cargo versions fig. 56;
Combi versions fig. 57.LOADING ADVICE
Some simple suggestions can improve
driving safety, comfort and vehicle
duration: - distribute the load evenly
over the platform: if it must be
concentrated it in a single area, choose
an area mid-way between both axles;
- lastly, remember that the dynamic
behaviour of the vehicle is affected by
the transported weight: in particular, the
stopping distances are longer,
especially at high speed.
24) 25) 26) 27)
WARNING
24)Bumpy roads and abrupt braking may
cause unexpected load shifting with
consequently hazardous situations for the
driver and passengers: before setting
off, secure the load tightly using the
partition and appropriate hooks, steel
cables, ropes or chains strong enough to
hold the items to be secured.
25)Even when the car is stopped on a
steep hill or side slope, opening the rear or
side doors could cause unsecured goods
to fall out.
26)If you wish to carry a reserve of petrol
in a can, observe the legal restrictions
and only use a can that is type-approved
and properly secured to the load
anchorage eyebolts. In the event of a
collision the fire risk is increased all the
same.54F0T0177

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE

27)Each of these must be strictly observed
and MUST NEVER BE EXCEEDED in any
case. In particular, ensure that you never
exceed the maximum permitted weights on
the front and rear axles when arranging
the load on the vehicle (particularly if the
vehicle is equipped with a specific trim
level).LUGGAGE

Operating conditions
The system is active for speeds above
15 km/h. In a few situations such as
sporty driving, particular conditions of
the road surface (e.g. icy, snowy,
unsurfaced roads...) the signalling may
be delayed or partial in detecting the
contemporary deflation of more than
one tyre. Under special conditions (e.g.
vehicle loaded asymmetrically on one
side, towing a trailer, damaged or worn
tyre, fitting the space-saver wheel,
use of the "Fix&Go Automatic"
kit, fitting snow chains, fitting different
tyres on the axles) the system may give
false indications or be temporarily
deactivated.
If the system is temporarily deactivated,
the warning light
flashes for about
75 seconds and then is continuously
on; at the same time, the display shows
a dedicated message. This warning is
displayed also after the engine has
been switched off and then on again if
the correct operating conditions are not
restored.

WARNING
56)The iTPMS is optimised for the original
tyres and wheels provided. iTPMS
pressures and alerts have been defined
according to the size of the tyres mounted
on the vehicle. Using equipment with
different size, type or kind may cause
irregular system operation or sensor
damage. Non-original spare wheels can
damage the sensor. Do not use tyre
sealant or balancing weights if the vehicle
is equipped with iTPMS as these may
damage the sensors.
57)If the system signals a pressure
decrease on a specific tyre, it is
recommended to check the pressure on all
four tyres.
58)The iTPMS does not relieve the driver
from the obligation to check the tyre
pressure every month; it is not even to be
considered a replacement system for
maintenance or a safety system.
59)Tyre pressure must be checked with
tyres cold. Should it become necessary for
whatever reason to check pressure with
warm tyres, do not reduce pressure even
though it is higher than the prescribed
value, but repeat the check when tyres are
cold.
60)The iTPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre
pressure drops (for example when a tyre
bursts). In this case, stop the vehicle,
braking with caution and avoiding abrupt
steering.61)The system only warns that the tyre
pressure is low: it is not able to inflate
them.
62)Insufficient tyre inflation increases fuel
consumption, reduces the tread duration
and may affect your ability to drive the
vehicle safely.
63)Always refit the valve stem cap after
inspecting or adjusting tyre pressure. This
prevents dampness or dirt from entering
the valve stem and thus the pressure
control sensor from being damaged.
64)The tyre repair kit (Fix&Go) provided
with the vehicle (for versions/markets,
where provided) is compatible with the
iTPMS sensors; using sealants not
equivalent with that in the original kit may
adversely affect its operation. If sealants
not equivalent with the original ones are
used, it is recommended to have the
iTPMS sensor operation checked by a
qualified repair centre.
65)If the system signals a loss of pressure
on a specific tyre, it is recommended to
check the pressure on all four tyres.

CARRYING
CHILDREN SAFELY
For optimal protection in the event of an
impact, all occupants must be seated
and wearing adequate restraint
systems, including newborn and other
children!
This prescription is compulsory in all EC
countries according to EC Directive
2003/20/EC.
Children below the height of 1.50
metres and up to 12 years must be
protected with suitable restraint
systems and be seated on the rear
seats. Statistics on accidents indicate
that the rear seats offer greater safety
for children.
Compared with an adult, a child's head
is larger and heavier in proportion to
their body and the child's muscular and
bone structures are not fully developed.
Therefore, correct restraint systems
other than adult seat belts are
necessary to reduce as much as
possible the risk of injuries in the event
of an accident, braking or a sudden
manoeuvre.Children must be seated safely and
comfortably. As far as the
characteristics of the child seats used
allow, you are advised to keep children
in rear facing child seats for as long
as possible (at least until 3–4 years old),
since this is the most protected
position in the event of an impact.
It is recommended to always choose
the restraint system most suitable
for the child; for this reason always refer
to the Owner Handbook provided with
the child restraint system, to be sure
that it is of the right type for the children
it is intended for.
In Europe the characteristics of child
restraint systems are ruled by the
regulation ECE-R44, dividing them into
five weight groups:
Group Weight range
Group 0up to 10 kg in
weight
Group 0+up to 13 kg in
weight
Group 1 9-18 kg
Group 2 15-25 kg
Group 3 22-36 kg
All restraint devices must bear the
type-approval data, together with the
control mark, on a label solidly fixed to
the child restraint system which must
never be removed.
Lineaccessori Fiat offers child restraint
systems for each weight group. These
devices are recommended, having
been specifically designed for Fiat cars.
IMPORTANT For correct installation
on the car, some universal child
restraint systems require an accessory
(base) sold separately by the restraint
system's producer. Therefore, FCA
advises customers to check that their
chosen child restraint system can
be installed on their vehicle by
performing a trial installation, on the
vendor's premises, before purchase.

GROUP 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried
with a rear facing child restraint system
of a type as shown in fig. 90 which,
supporting the head, does not induce
stress on the neck in the event of
sudden decelerations.
83

SUITABILITY OF PASSENGER SEATS FOR THE USE OF CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEMS
The vehicles designed to carry people (homologation M1) comply with the new European Directive 2000/3/EC which governs
the arrangement possibilities for child restraint systems on the seats of the vehicle as shown in the following table:
Group Weight range Front passenger Rear passenger
Airbag enabled Airbag deactivated
Group 0, 0+ up to 13 kgXUU
Group 1 9 - 18 kgXUU
Group 2 15 - 25 kgUUU
Group 3 22–36 kgUUU
X Seat not suitable for children in this weight category.
U suitable for child restraint systems in the "Universal" category, according to European Standard ECE-R44 for the specified "Groups".
WARNING
73)SERIOUS DANGER: When an active passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT install rear 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. It is advisable to always
carry children in a child restraint system on the rear seat, which is the most protected position in the event of a collision.
74)Should it be necessary to carry a child on the passenger side front seat in a rearward-facing child restraint system, the passenger side
front airbag and side bag (for versions/markets, where provided) must be deactivated through the Setup menu. Deactivation should be
verified by checking whether the
warning light is switched on in the central dashboard. Move the passenger's seat as far back as possible
to avoid contact between the child seat and the dashboard.
75)On the sun visor there is a label with suitable symbols reminding the user that it is compulsory to deactivate the airbag if a rearward facing
child restraint system is fitted. Always comply with the instructions on the passenger side sun visor (see the "Supplementary Restraint
System (SRS) - Airbag" paragraph).
76)Do not move the front or rear seat if a child is seated on it or on the dedicated child restraint system.
77)Incorrect fitting of the child restraint system may result in an inefficient protection system. In the event of an accident the child restraint
system may become loose and the child may be injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint system for newborns or children, strictly comply
with the instructions provided by the Manufacturer.
85

INSTALLING AN
ISOFIX SEAT
(for versions/markets, where provided)
82) 83)
On some versions the external rear
seats are equipped with ISOFIX
attachments, for fitting child restraint
systems quickly, simply and safely.The ISOFIX system lets you install the
ISOFIX child restraining system without
using the vehicle seat belts but
connecting them directly to the car seat
with three anchors in the vehicle.
Traditional child restraint systems can
be fitted alongside Isofix child restraint
systems on different seats in the same
vehicle.
As an example, fig. 94 shows an
example of a Universal Isofix child
restraint system for weight group: 1.
IMPORTANT The fig. 94 is indicative
and for assembly purposes only. Fit the
child restraint system according to
the instructions, which must be
included.To install an ISOFIX child restraint
system, attach it to the two metal
anchorages A fig. 95 located where the
rear seat cushion meets the backrest,
then fix the upper strap (available
together with the restraint system) to
the dedicated anchorage B fig. 96
located at the bottom behind the
backrest.
Remember that, in the case of
Universal Isofix child seats, you can use
all seats bearing the marking ECE
R44 (R44/03 or later updates)
"Universal Isofix".
The Universal Isofix “Duo Plus” child
seat is available from Lineaccessori
MOPAR.
For any further details on installation/
use, refer to the instruction manual for
the child restraint system.

SAFETY

TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT NOTES
The vehicle must be equipped with a
type-approved tow hook and adequate
electrical system to tow trailers.
Installation should be carried out by
specialised technicians who will issue
the required papers for travelling on
roads.
Install any specific and/or additional
door mirrors as specified by the
Highway Code.
Remember that, when towing a trailer,
steep hills are harder to climb, braking
distances increase and overtaking
takes longer depending on the overall
weight of the trailer.
Engage a low gear when driving
downhill, rather than constantly using
the brake.
The weight of the trailer on the vehicle
tow hook will reduce the loading
capacity of the vehicle by the same
amount.
To make sure that the maximum
towable weight is not exceeded (given
in the vehicle registration document)
account should be taken of the fully
laden trailer, including accessories and
luggage.Do not exceed the speed limits specific
to each country you are driving in, in
the case of vehicles towing trailers.
In all cases, the top speed must not
exceed 80 km/h.
IMPORTANT For Natural Power
versions, trailers cannot be towed so
there are no provisions for fitting a tow
hook.
113) 114)
WARNING
113)The ABS with which the vehicle may
be equipped will not control the trailer's
braking system. Particular caution is
required on slippery roads.
114)Never modify the braking system of
the vehicle to control the trailer brake. The
trailer braking system must be fully
independent from the hydraulic system of
the vehicle.
