10)After closing the doors, always verify
that they are securely closed: doors not
securely closed are dangerous, if the
vehicle is driven with a door not securely
closed, the door could open unexpectedly
resulting in an accident.
11)Always confirm the safety around the
vehicle before opening a door: suddenly
opening a door is dangerous. A passing
vehicle or a pedestrian could be hit and
cause an accident.
12)Always confirm the conditions around
the vehicle before opening/closing the
doors and use caution during strong winds
or when parked on an incline. Not being
aware of the conditions around the vehicle
is dangerous because fingers could get
caught in the door or a passing pedestrian
could be hit, resulting in an unexpected
accident or injury.
13)If the power window does not go up or
down automatically because the battery is
dead, slowly open/close the power window
while pressing the glass inward. Otherwise,
the power window may contact the
convertible top and the door cannot be
opened/closed resulting in damage to the
window.
14)Never activate the double locking
system with passengers, especially
children, still inside the vehicle: activating
the system with passengers, especially
children, still inside the vehicle is
dangerous. The passengers cannot open
the doors from inside. They would be
trapped and subjected to extreme
temperatures. This could result in serious
injuries or even death.SEATS

Proceed as follows:
with the vehicle parked, pull the
release handle 1 fig. 35 to unlock the
bonnet;
insert your hand into the bonnet
opening, slide the latch lever 2 to the
right fig. 36, and lift up the bonnet;

arrow to hold the bonnet open.CLOSING
54)
Proceed as follows:
check under the hood 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 hood, 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 hood;
lower the hood slowly to a height of
about 20 cm above its closed position
and then let it drop.
IMPORTANT When closing the hood,
do not push it excessively such as by
applying your weight. Otherwise, the
hood could be deformed.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

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. 57 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 a Fiat
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 a Fiat
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 a Fiat
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 a Fiat 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 a Fiat
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

119)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.
120)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.
121)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.122)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.
123)Do not modify a door or leave any
damage unrepaired. Always have an expert
repairer, we recommend a Fiat 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.124)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 a Fiat 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.
125)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.
