The seats are electrically heated. The
ignition must be switched ON.
Press the seat warmer switch fig. 11 to
illuminate the indicator light while the
ignition is switched ON.
The mode changes as follows each
time the seat warmer switch is pressed.
IMPORTANT Do not use organic
solvents to clean the seat. It may
damage the seat surface and the
heater.
NoteIf the ignition is switched off while the
seat warmer is operating (High, Mid or
Low) and then switched ON again, the
seat warmer will automatically operate
at the temperature set before switching
off the ignition.
Use the seat warmer when the
engine is running. Leaving the seat
warmer on for long periods with the
engine not running could cause the
battery power to be depleted.
The temperature of the seat warmer
cannot be adjusted beyond High, Mid
and Low because the seat warmer is
controlled by a thermostat.
WARNING
15)Make sure the adjustable components
of a seat are locked in place. Adjustable
seats and seatbacks that are not securely
locked are dangerous. In a sudden stop or
collision, the seat or seatback could move,
causing injury. Make sure the adjustable
components of the seat are locked in place
by attempting to slide the seat forward and
backward and rocking the seatback.1003010202-12A-003AB

BONNET
OPENING
52) 53) 54) 56)
Proceed as follows:
with the vehicle parked, pull the
release handle 1 fig. 38 to unlock the
bonnet;
insert your hand into the bonnet
opening, slide the latch lever 2 to the
right fig. 39 and lift up the bonnet;
release support rod 3 fig. 40 from its
locking device, then insert it in the
padded area 4 fig. 41 and secure it in
the support rod hole indicated by the
arrow to hold the bonnet open.CLOSING
55)
Proceed as follows:
check under the bonnet area to
make certain all filler caps are in place
and all loose items (e.g. tools, oil
containers, etc.) have been removed;
lift the bonnet, grasp the padded
area on the support rod, and secure the
support rod from its locking device.
Verify that the support rod is secured in
the clip before closing the bonnet;
lower the bonnet slowly to a height of
about 20 cm above its closed position
and then let it drop.
IMPORTANT When closing the bonnet,
do not push it excessively such as by
applying your weight. Otherwise, the
bonnet could be deformed.

back of the front bumper detects a
certain amount of impact by a collision
with a pedestrian or other obstruction
while the vehicle is being driven at a
speed sufficient to activate the system,
the system is activated and the bonnet
is raised (3 = active bonnet warning
light/4=electronic control unit).
IMPORTANT Do not touch the actuator
2 fig. 60 directly after the active bonnet
has activated. Otherwise, it could result
in a burn as the actuator is hot directly
after the activation.
Operation and handlingAlways make sure that the bonnet is
closed completely before driving.
Otherwise, the system may not operate
normally.
The system may not operate for
about 8 seconds after the ignition is
switched ON.
Use tires of the same specified size
on all four wheels. If tires with different
sizes are used, the system may not
operate normally.
If something hits the area around the
front bumper, the sensor could be
damaged even if the active bonnet
does not activate. Contact an Abarth
Dealership to have the vehicle
inspected.
Do not remove or repair parts or
wiring for the active bonnet. In addition,
do not test the system’s circuitry using
an electric tester. Otherwise, the active
bonnet may activate mistakenly or not
operate normally. Contact an Abarth
Dealership when repairs or replacement
servicing is required.
Do not replace the front bumper,
bonnet, suspension, aero parts, or
wheels with non-genuine FCA parts.
Otherwise, the system may not operate
normally.
Do not install non-genuine FCA
accessories to the front bumper. In
addition, do not install objects on thebonnet. Otherwise, the system may not
operate normally.
Do not close the bonnet excessively
or apply a load to the actuator.
Otherwise, the actuator could be
damaged and cause the system to not
operate normally.
Do not modify the suspension. If the
vehicle height or the damping force of
the suspensions is changed, the
system may not operate normally.
When equipping parts, contact an
Abarth Dealership. If parts are installed
incorrectly, the active bonnet may not
activate normally due to the inability to
detect an impact.
When disposing of the vehicle,
contact an Abarth Dealership. If the
vehicle is not handled correctly, it could
result in injury.
The active bonnet cannot be reused
if it has been activated. Contact an
Abarth Dealership.
If the active bonnet activates
The active bonnet activates under the
following conditions:
if the front of the vehicle hits a
pedestrian or obstruction while the
vehicle is being driven at a speed
sufficient to activate the system, the
system will activate if a certain amount
of impact is applied in a collision even
though no trace may remain on the

123)Do not attach objects on or around
the area where a side air bag deploys.
Attaching objects to the seat in such a way
as to cover the outboard side of the seat in
any way is dangerous. In an accident the
object could interfere with the side air bag,
which inflates from the outboard side of the
seats, impeding the added protection of
the side air bag system or redirecting the
air bag in a way that is dangerous.
Furthermore, the bag could be cut open
releasing the gas. Do not hang net bags,
map pouches or backpacks with side
straps on the seats. Never use seat covers
on the seats. Always keep the side air bag
modules in your seats free to deploy in the
event of a side collision.
124)Do not touch the components of the
supplementary restraint system after the air
bags have inflated. Touching the
components of the supplementary restraint
system after the air bags have inflated is
dangerous. Immediately after inflation, they
are very hot. You could get burned.
125)Never install any front-end equipment
to your vehicle. Installation of front-end
equipment, such as frontal protection bar
(kangaroo bar, bull bar, push bar, or other
similar devices), snowplow, or winches, is
dangerous. The air bag crash sensor
system could be affected. This could cause
air bags to inflate unexpectedly, or it could
prevent the air bags from inflating during an
accident. Occupants could be seriously
injured.126)Do not modify the suspension.
Modifying the vehicle suspension is
dangerous. If the vehicle's height or the
suspension is modified, the vehicle will be
unable to accurately detect a collision
resulting in incorrect or unexpected air bag
deployment and the possibility of serious
injuries.
127)Do not modify a door or leave any
damage unrepaired. Always have an expert
repairer, we recommend an Abarth
Dealership inspect a damaged door.
Modifying a door or leaving any damage
unrepaired is dangerous. Each door has a
side crash sensor as a component of the
supplementary restraint system. If holes
are drilled in a door, a door speaker is left
removed, or a damaged door is left
unrepaired, the sensor could be adversely
affected causing it to not detect the
pressure of an impact correctly during a
side collision. If a sensor does not detect a
side impact correctly, the side air bags and
the seat belt pretensioner may not operate
normally which could result in serious injury
to occupants.128)Do not modify the supplementary
restraint system. Modifying the
components or wiring of the
supplementary restraint system is
dangerous. You could accidentally activate
it or make it inoperable. Do not make any
modifications to the supplementary
restraint system. This includes installing
trim, badges, or anything else over the air
bag modules. It also includes installing
extra electrical equipment on or near
system components or wiring. An expert
repairer, we recommend an Abarth
Dealership can provide the special care
needed in the removal and installation of
seats. It is important to protect the air bag
wiring and connections to assure that the
bags do not accidentally deploy, and that
the passenger occupant classification
system and the seats retain an undamaged
air bag connection.
129)Do not place luggage or other objects
under the seats. Placing luggage or other
objects under the seats is dangerous. The
components essential to the
supplementary restraint system could be
damaged, and in the event of a side
collision, the appropriate air bags may not
deploy, which could result in death or
serious injury. To prevent damage to the
components essential to the
supplementary restraint system, do not
place luggage or other objects under the
seats.
