All child restraint devices must bear the type-approval
data, together with the control mark, on a label firmly
fixed to the seat which must never be removed.
Over 1.50 m in height, from the point of view of
restraint systems, children are considered as adults and
wear the seat belts normally.
GROUP 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried facing backwards on
a cradle seat, which, supporting the head, does not
induce stress on the neck in the event of sharp
decelerations.
The cradle is held in place by the car seat belts fig. 112
and in turn it must restrain the child with its own belts.CARRYING CHILDREN SAFELY
For optimal protection in the event of a collision, all
passengers must be seated and wearing adequate
restraint systems. This is even more important for
children. This prescription is compulsory in all EU
countries pursuant to Directive 2003/20/EC. Compared
with adults, a child’s head is proportionally larger and
heavier than the rest of the body, while muscles and
bone structure are not fully developed. Therefore,
correct restraint systems are necessary which are
different from adult seat belts. The results of research in
relation to the best protection for children is
summarised in European Regulation CEE-R44, which
divides the restraint systems into five groups in addition
to making their use compulsory:
Group 0 up to 10 kg of weight
Group 0+ up to 13 kg of weight
Group 1 9-18 kg in weight
Group 2 15-25 kg in weight
Group 3 22-36 kg in weight
As you can see, the groups overlap partly and, in fact,
there are devices on sale that cover more than one
weight group.

the fastening.
WARNING
F0U114Abfig. 114
GROUP 2
Starting from 15 kg to 25 kg in weight, children may be
restrained directly using the car belts
fig. 114.
The only function of the seat is to position the child
correctly in relation to the belts, so that the diagonal
part adheres to the chest and not to the neck and that
the horizontal part clings to the child’s pelvis and not
the abdomen.GROUP 3
For children from 22 kg up to 36 kg suitable risers make
fastening the seat belt easier.
Fig. 115 shows correct child seat positioning on the rear
seat.
Children taller than 1.50 m can wear seat belts like
adults.
The figure is indicative for fitting purposes
only. Refer to the instructions supplied
with the child restraint for the fastening.

“UNIVERSAL ISOFIX” CHILD
RESTRAINT ASSEMBLY SETUP
The car can be fitted with a Universal Isofix child
restraint, a new European standardised system for
carrying children safely.
An example of a child seat is shown in fig. 116.
The Universal Isofix child seat covers weight group 1.
Due to its different attachment system, the Universal
Isofix child seat must be anchored to the special lower
metal rings A-fig. 117, located between the backrest and
rear cushion. The upper belt (provided with the child
seat) must then be secured to ring B-fig. 118 located on
the back of the backrest at child seat level.
It is possible to have a mixed assembly of traditional
child seats and Universal Isofix seats.
F0U116Abfig. 116
Remember that in the case of Universal Isofix child’s
seat, you can use all seats approved with the marking
ECE R44/03 “Universal Isofix”.

Press the clutch pedal fully to change
gears correctly. For this reason, there
must be no obstacles on the floor under the
pedals: ensure that rubber mats (if any) are
lying flat and do not interfere with the pedals.
WARNING
Do not drive with your hand resting on
the shifting lever, because this pressure,
even if light, over time can wear out the
gearbox internal components.
MPORTANT Use of the clutch pedal must be limited
solely to gear changes. Do not drive with your foot
resting on the clutch pedal, however slightly. For
versions/markets where provided, the electronic clutch
control can intervene if it interprets incorrect driving
style as a fault.CONTAINING RUNNING COSTS
Here are some suggestions which may help you to keep
the running costs of your vehicle down and lower the
amount of toxic emissions released into the
atmosphere.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out in accordance
with the “Scheduled Servicing Plan”.
Tyres
Check the pressure of the tyres routinely at an interval
of no more than 4 weeks: if the pressure is too low,
consumption levels increase as resistance to rolling is
higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight of
the car (especially when driving in town) and the way in
which it is laden greatly affect fuel consumption and
stability.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below
are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests
set down by relevant European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring
consumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that
simulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: drive simulating the driving of the
car out of town with frequent acceleration in all
gears; the speed varies from 0 to 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: the weighting is around 37%
urban cycle and 63% extra-urban cycle.IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations,
weather conditions, driving style, general conditions of
the car, trim level/equipment/accessories, load, climate
control system, roof rack, other situations that affect air
drag may lead to different fuel consumption levels than
those measured.
Fuel consumption according to the current European directive (litres/100 km)
