it possible to reach the required heating or cooling
conditions faster depending on the mode selected. It is
not advisable to switch the air recirculation on when it
is rainy/cold to prevent the windows from misting up,
especially if the climate control is not turned on. It is
advisable to switch the internal air recirculation on
whilst queueing or in tunnels to prevent the
introduction of polluted air.
Do not use the function for a long time, particularly if
there are several passengers on board, to prevent the
windows from misting up.

The daytime lights are an alternative to
dipped beam headlights for driving
during the daytime. They are compliant in
countries where is it obligatory to have lights on
during the day and permitted in those where it is
not obligatory. Daytime running lights cannot
replace dipped headlights when driving at night
or through tunnels. The use of daytime running
lights is governed by the highway code of the
country in which you are driving. Comply with
legal requirements.

IMPORTANT Should an accident occur in which any of
the safety devices are activated, contact an Abarth
Dealership to have the activated devices replaced and to
have the whole system checked.
Every check, repair and replacement operation
concerning the airbags must be carried out at Abarth
Dealerships.
If you are having the car scrapped, have the airbag
system deactivated at an Abarth Dealership first. If the
car changes ownership, the new owner must be
informed of how to use the airbags and the above
warnings: they must also be given this “Owner’s
Handbook”.
IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front airbags and front side
bags are deployed differently according to the type of
collision. Non-deployment of one of the devices does
not necessarily indicate a system malfunction.
IMPORTANT In the event of a side-on crash, the
system offers the best protection if you are positioned
correctly on the seat because this allows the side bags
to inflate correctly.
IMPORTANT The front airbags and/or side bags may be
deployed if the car is subject to strong impact involving
the underbody area, such as violent impacts against
steps, kerbs or low obstacles, the car entering large
holes or hollows in the road.
IMPORTANT A small amount of dust will be released
when the airbags are deployed. The dust is harmless and
does not indicate the beginning of a fire. Furthermore,
the surface of the deployed bag and the interior of the
car may be covered with dusty residue. This dust can
irritate skin and eyes. Wash with mild soap and water in
the event of exposure.
The expiration dates of the explosive charge and the
clock wire are shown on a label contained in the glove
box. Contact an Abarth Dealership to have the devices
replaced when the expiry date approaches.

INTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not trapped under the
mats (due to water dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.)
which could cause oxidisation of the sheet metal.
Glasses
To clean glasses, use specific window cleaner products.
Also use clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or
altering the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window inside gently with
a cloth in the direction of the filaments to avoid
damaging the heating device.
Engine compartment
Wash the engine compartment thoroughly at the end of
every winter. Be careful not to direct the jet of water
onto electronic control units. Adequately protect the
upper air vents to prevent damage to the windscreen
wiper motor. Have this operation performed at a
specialised workshop.
IMPORTANT The washing should take place with the
engine cold and the ignition key in the STOP position.
After the washing operation, make sure that the various
protections (e.g. rubber caps and guards) have not been
removed or damaged.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.: petrol)
or ketenes (e.g.: acetone) for cleaning front headlight plastic
lens.
Never use flammable products, such as
petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean
the inside of the car. The electrostatic charges
which are generated by rubbing during the
cleaning operation may cause a fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol cylinders in the
vehicle: risk of bursting. Aerosol cylinders
must not be exposed to a temperature
exceeding 50°C. When the car is exposed to
sunlight, the internal temperature can greatly
exceed this value.

These components must be cleaned with mild soap and
water only.
Never use alcohol and/or alcohol-based products.
Before using off-the-shelf products designed for cleaning
vehicle interiors, make sure that they do not contain
alcohol and/or alcohol-based substances.
If window cleaner accidentally drips onto the steering
wheel or gear lever knob, wipe away immediately and
then wash the affected area with mild soap and water.
IMPORTANT Be careful when using a steering wheel
lock device, where applicable, to prevent damaging the
leather upholstery by rubbing.
INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior plastic parts with a
microfibre cloth, if possible, moistened with a solution
of water and non-abrasive mild soap. Use specific
products for cleaning plastic, without solvents and
specifically designed to prevent damage to the
appearance and colour of the treated parts to remove
grease and tough stains.
Remove dust using a microfibre cloth, if necessary
moistened with water. The use of paper tissues is not
recommended as these may leave residues.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol or petroleum to clean
