SEAT BELTS
69) 70)
USING THE SEAT BELTSThe driver is responsible for respecting,
and ensuring that all the other
occupants of the vehicle also respect,
the local laws in force in relation to
the use of the seat belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off.
The seat belt should be worn keeping
the torso straight and rested against
the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the
tongue A fig. 66 and insert it into the
buckle B, until it clicks into place.
On removal, if the belt jams, let it rewind
for a short stretch, then pull it out
again without jerking.To unfasten the seat belts, press button
C and guide the seat belt with your
hand while it is rewinding, to prevent it
from twisting.
The retractor may lock when the vehicle
is parked on a steep slope: this is
perfectly normal. Furthermore, the
retractor mechanism locks the belt if it
is pulled sharply or in the event of
sudden braking, collisions or
high-speed bends.
The rear seat is fitted with inertia seat
belts with three anchor points and a
retractor. Wear the rear seat belts
as shown in fig. 67.
IMPORTANT When returning the rear
seat from the tilted position to the
normal operating position, take care to
refit the seat belt correctly, in order to
guarantee prompt availability every
time.
500L LIVING 7-seater versionsThe third row rear seats have inertia
seat belts with three anchor points and
retractor. Wear the rear seat belts as
shown in fig. 68.PRO versionsThe vehicle is equipped with rear seat
approved for only two occupants (see
fig. 69) with three point seat belts
and retractor.

Emergency refuellingProceed as follows:
❒open the luggage compartment and
take the adapter, located in the tool box
or in the Fix&Go Automatic container
(according to the versions);
❒open the flap A pulling it outwards, fit
the dispenser in the filler as shown in
fig. 101 and start refuelling;
❒after refuelling, remove the adapter
and close the flap;
❒reintroduce the adapter in the box
and put this back in the luggage
compartment.LPG versionsFor refuelling, open the fuel flap A fig.
102 and undo plug B. During refuelling,
hand over the suitable filling adaptor
C fig. 102 to the LPG refuelling
operators.IMPORTANT Depending on the country,
there are various types of adapters for
LPG refuelling pumps. Filler adapter,
supplied with the vehicle and located in
a special case, is specifically designed
for the country in which the vehicle is
sold. If you are in a different country,
find out what type of adaptor is used
there.
Natural Power versions
62)
For refuelling, open the flap A fig. 103,
undo cap B turning it counterclockwise
and reach the filler C.
The profile of the filler for refilling is the
universal type compatible with Italian
and NGV1 standards. In some
European countries adapters are
considered ILLEGAL (e.g. in Germany).
WARNING
115)Do not apply any object/plug to the
end of the filler which is not provided
for the vehicle. Using non-approved
objects/plugs may cause pressure
increase in the tank, leading to dangerous
conditions.
116)Do not get close to the filler of the
tank with naked flames or lit cigarettes: risk
of fire. Do not get too close to the filler
with your face, in order not to inhale
harmful vapours.
117)Do not use a mobile phone near the
fuel pump: risk of fire.

follows:
❒retighten device A fig. 112 on fixing
mounting B;
❒insert spanner C fig. 113 on device D
and rotate it clockwise in order to
tighten the space-saver wheel support
locking bolt. The device is correctly
attached when the yellow strip appears
in window E;
❒fit the punctured tyre in the dedicated
bag and place it in the luggage
compartment.Punctured tyre positioning (500L
LIVING versions)5-seater versions: place the punctured
tyre in the luggage compartment.
7-seater versions❒With third row of rear seats folded:
place the punctured tyre in the luggage
compartment, above the backrests.
❒With third row of rear seats not
folded: remove the luggage-covering
curtain (which must be positioned
in front of second row of seats) then
place the punctured tyre in the luggage
compartment, positioning it as shown
in fig. 114 (wheel hub facing the inside
of the passenger compartment in
order to prevent the wheel from falling
when closing the tailgate).REFITTING THE
STANDARD WHEEL
Versions with steel rims❒make sure the contact surfaces
between standard wheel and hub are
clean and free from impurities so that
the fixing stud bolts will not come
loose;

120)Vehicle handling is modified with the
space-saver wheel fitted. Avoid violent
acceleration and braking, abrupt steering
and fast cornering. The overall duration
of the space-saver wheel is about 3000
km, after which the relevant tyre must be
replaced with another one of the same
type. Never install a standard tyre on a rim
that is designed for use with a space-saver
wheel. Have the wheel repaired and refitted
as soon as possible. Using two or more
space-saver wheels at the same time
is forbidden. Do not grease the threads of
the stud bolts before fitting them: they
might slip out when driving.
121)The jack shall only be used for raising
the car model it has been supplied with.
Never use the jack for other purposes,
such as raising other car models. Never
use the jack for repair operations under the
vehicle. Incorrect positioning of the jack
may cause the vehicle to fall. Do not use
the jack for loads higher than the one
shown on its label. The space-saver wheel
cannot be fitted with snow chains. If a
front (drive) tyre is punctured and chains
are needed, use a standard wheel from the
rear axle and install the space-saver wheel
on the rear axle. This way, with two
standard front driving wheels, you can
install the snow chains on them.
122)Incorrect hub cap assembly may
cause it to come off when the vehicle is
moving. Never tamper with the inflation
valve. Never introduce tools of any kind
between rim and tyre. Check tyre and
space-saver wheel pressures regularly,
complying with the values given in the
"Technical specifications" chapter.123)At the end of the operation of
raising/locking the spare wheel, the ignition
key must be extracted, taking care not to
turn it in the wrong direction to facilitate the
extraction of the key itself, to prevent the
attachment device from being released and
the wheel assembly not being securely
retained.
WARNING
63)Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the correct tightening
of the wheel stud bolts checked.

WARNING
132)Changes or repairs to the electrical
system carried out incorrectly and without
due consideration for the technical
specifications of the system may lead to
malfunctioning and generate a fire hazard.
133)Halogen bulbs contain pressurised
gas. If they break, glass fragments could fly
everywhere.
WARNING
65)Halogen bulbs must be handled by
holding the metallic part only. Touching the
transparent part of the bulb with your
fingers may reduce the intensity of the
emitted light and even reduce the lifespan
of the bulb. In the event of accidental
contact, wipe the bulb with a cloth
moistened with alcohol and leave it to dry.
66)Where possible, it is advisable to
have bulbs changed at a Fiat Dealership.
Proper operation and direction of the
external lights are essential for driving in
safety and comply with law.
