The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication: any changes
to its original conditions will invalidate
its efficiency. If, due to unusual natural
events (floods, sea storms, etc.), the
device has been affected by water
and/or mud, contact a dedicated Alfa
Romeo Dealership to have it replaced.

LOAD LIMITERS
To increase protection, the seat belt
retractors contain a device which
controls the force acting on the chest and
shoulders during the belt restraining
action in the event of an accident.
CARRYING CHILDREN
SAFELY
Alfa 4C is a sporty car that can be driven
in town every day, provided its driver and
passengers fasten their seat belts.
Carrying a child on the passenger seat is
also allowed, provided the child weighs
more than 9 kg and a suitable child
restraint system is used.
Children must be suitably restrained
inside the vehicle according to their
weight. Several children restraint system
types are available; always choose the
one most suitable for the child:
58)
When over 1.50 m in height, from the
point of view of restraint systems,
children are considered as adults and
have to wear the standard seat belts.
All restraint devices must bear the
certification data, together with the
control mark, on a label solidly fixed to
the child restraint system which must
never be removed.
Child restraint systems are available
from Lineaccessori Alfa Romeo.
These products have been designed and
tested specifically for Alfa Romeo
vehicles.
56)The pretensioner may be used only
once. After its activation, contact a
dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership to have
it replaced.
57)Removing or otherwise tampering
with seat belt and pretensioner
components is strictly prohibited. Any
intervention on these components must
be performed by qualified and authorised
technicians. Always contact a dedicated
Alfa Romeo Dealership.
IMPORTANT
4)Operations which lead to knocks,
vibrations or localised heating (over
100°C for a maximum of 6 hours) in the
area around the pretensioners may cause
damage or trigger them.
Contact the dedicated
Alfa Romeo Dealership if there is the need
to operate on those components.

FITTING “UNIVERSAL” CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
(with seat belts)
Only Group 1, 2 and 3 child restraint
systems, namely forward facing child
restraint systems, can be installed on
Alfa 4C.
This vehicle is NOT compliant for fitting
rear facing child restraint systems on the
passenger seat.
GROUP 1
Children of weight from 9 to 18 kg may
be carried in forward facing child
restraint systems fig. 37.
59)
37A0L0059
GROUP 2
Children from 15 to 36 kg may use the
car seat belts directly, fig. 38.
The child restraint system is used only to
position the child correctly with respect
to the belts so that the diagonal section
crosses the child’s chest and never the
neck, and the horizontal part is snug on
the pelvis not the abdomen.
59)
38A0L0064
58)The car passenger’s seat is not
suitable for carrying rear facing child
restraint systems (Group 0 and 0+).
Therefore, very small children (from 0 to
9 kg) must NOT be carried in this vehicle.

Main safety rules to be followed when
carrying children
❒ follow the instructions supplied with
the child restraint system itself, which
the manufacturer must provide.
Keep the instructions in the car along
with the other documents and this
handbook.
Do not use child seats without
instructions; always check the seat belt is
well fastened by pulling the belt;
❒ only one child is to be strapped into
each restraint system; never carry two
children using one child restraint system;
always check that the belts are not
resting on the child’s neck;
❒ while travelling, do not let the child sit
incorrectly or release the belts;
❒ never carry children on your lap, even
newborns. No-one could hold on to a child
in the event of an accident; in the event of
an accident, replace the child restraint
system with a new one. Also have the
seat belt to which the child restraint
system was attached replaced.
FRONT AIRBAGS
DRIVER AND PASSENGER FRONT
AIRBAGS
The car features multistage front airbags
(“Smart bag system”) for driver and
passenger.
The front driver/passenger airbags are
designed to protect occupants in the
event of frontal impacts of medium-high
severity, by placing the bag between the
occupant and the steering wheel or
dashboard.
Therefore, non-activation of the front
airbags in other types of collisions (side
collisions, rear shunts, rollovers, etc.)
does not indicate a system malfunction.
Airbags are not a replacement of but
complementary to the seat belts, which
you are recommended to always wear. In
the event of impact, those not wearing a
seat belt are projected forwards and may
come into contact with the bag which is
still inflating. The protection offered by
the bag is compromised in these
circumstances.
60)
59)The diagrams are indicative and
provided for assembly purposes only. Fit
the child restraint system according to
the instructions, which must be included.
IMPORTANT
❒ 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. Strictly comply with
the instructions provided when fitting a
child restraint system.
❒ When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or
remove it from the vehicle. Do not leave it
unsecured inside the passenger
compartment. In this way, in the case of
sudden braking or an accident, it will not
cause injuries to the occupants.
Page 66 of 156
Front airbags may not activate in the
following situations:
❒ frontal impacts against highly
deformable objects not involving the
front surface of the car (e.g. wing collision
against guard rail);
❒ jamming of the car underneath other
vehicles or protective barriers
(e.g. underneath a truck or a guard rail); in
this case, the bags would offer no
additional protection with respect to the
seat belt and their deployment would be
inappropriate.
In these cases, non-deployment does not
indicate a system malfunction.
FRONT AIRBAG DRIVER’S SIDE
This is located in a dedicated
compartment in the centre of the
steering wheel fig. 39.
61)
39A0L0055
PASSENGER SIDE FRONT AIRBAG
This is located in a dedicated
compartment in the dashboard fig. 40.
62)
FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS
It is ABSOLUTELY FORBIDDEN to install
on the vehicle a child restraint system
backwards the driving direction.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident
could cause fatal injuries to the baby.
ALWAYS comply with the instructions
on the label stuck on the passenger side
sun visor fig. 41.
40A0L0056
IMPORTANT NOTES
The front airbags may activate in the event of
sharp impacts to the underbody of the car
(e.g. impact with steps, pavements, potholes
or road bumps, etc.). When the airbag deploys
it emits a small amount of dust: the dust is
harmless and does not indicate the beginning
of a fire. The dust may irritate the skin and
eyes however: in this case, wash with neutral
soap and water.
Airbag checking, repair and replacement
must be carried out at a dedicated Alfa
Romeo Dealership. If the car is scrapped,
have the airbag system deactivated at a
dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership.
Pretensioners and airbags are deployed
according to different logic on the basis of
the type of collision. Failure to activate one or
more of the devices does not indicate a
system malfunction.
