SBR (Seat Belt
Reminder) SYSTEMThe SBR system warns the passengers
of the front and rear (where provided)
seats if their seat belt is not fastened.
The system signals unfastened seat
belts with visual warnings (warning light
on in the instrument panel and symbols
on the display) and an acoustic signal
(see the following paragraphs).
NOTE To deactivate the acoustic
warning permanently go to a
Fiat Dealership. The acoustic warning
can be reactivated at any time through
the display Menu (see the "Display"
paragraph in the “Knowing the
instrument panel” chapter).FRONT SEAT BELT
WARNING LIGHT
BEHAVIOURWhen the ignition device is turned to
MAR, warning light
(see fig. 66) lights
up for a few seconds, regardless of
the status of the front seat belts.
With vehicle at a standstill, if the driver
side seat belt or the passenger side
seat belt (with occupant present) is
unfastened, the warning light stays on
constantly.As soon as the threshold of 8 km/h is
exceeded for a few seconds with driver
or passenger side (with passenger
present) seat belts unfastened, an
acoustic warning is activated together
with the flashing of the
warning
light for approximately 105 seconds.
When this cycle of warnings is activated
it will stay on for its entire length
(regardless of the vehicle speed) or until
the seat belts are fastened again.
When the reverse is engaged, during
the cycle of warnings, the acoustic
signal is deactivated and the
warning
light turns on constantly. The cycle of
warnings will be reactivated as soon as
speed exceeds 8 km/h again.
REAR SEAT BELT ICON
BEHAVIOURThe icons are shown on the display (fig.
67 versions with colour display or fig.
68 versions with single-colour display)
after a few seconds have elapsed since
the ignition device is turned to MAR.
The icons turn off about 30 seconds
after they have been turned on or after
the seat belts have been fastened.
The icons shown on the display
indicate (according to the various
cases):
❒A: seat belt fastened, rear left seat;
❒B: seat belt fastened, rear central
seat;
❒C: seat belt unfastened, rear right
seat;
The icons are displayed according to
the corresponding seat belts in the rear
seats, and stay on for about 30
seconds from the last seat belt status
change:
❒if the seat belt is fastenedthe
corresponding icon will be as shown in
points A and B (green for the colour
display);
❒if the seat belt is unfastenedthe
corresponding icon will be as shown in
point C (red for the colour display).

If a rear seat belt is unfastened, an
acoustic warning (3 "beeps") will be
activated along with the relevant icon
lighting up in the display.
Furthermore the icons will light up again
for 30 seconds each time one of the
doors is closed.
The icon will turn green after the
corresponding seat belt has been
fastened.The rear seat icons will go out,
regardless of the state of the belt (red
icon or green icon), approximately
30 seconds after the last signal.
IMPORTANTAs far as the rear seats are concerned,
the SBR system will only indicate
whether the seat belts are unfastened
(red icon) or fastened (green icon),
not the presence of any passengers.For the rear seats, the icons will
activate a few seconds after the ignition
device has been turned to MAR,
regardless of the status of the seat
belts (even if the seat belts are all
fastened).
All the warning lights/icons will come on
when at least one belt changes from
fastened to unfastened status or vice
versa.

SAFETY
15-12-2014 8:23 Pagina 78

PRETENSIONERSThe vehicle is equipped with front seat
belt pretensioners, which draw back
the seat belts by several centimetres in
the event of a strong frontal impact.
This guarantees the perfect adherence
of the seat belts to the occupant's
bodies before the retention action
begins.
It is evident that the pretensioners have
been activated when the safety belt
withdraws toward the retractor.
This vehicle is also equipped with a
second pretensioner (in the kick plate
area). Its activation is signalled by
the shortening of the metal cable and
rolling up of the protective sheath.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the
pretensioner which is not harmful and
does not indicate any fire hazard.
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 Fiat Dealership to have it replaced.IMPORTANT To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action of
the pretensioner, wear the seat belt
tight to the torso and pelvis.
LOAD LIMITERS
72)32)
To increase safety in the event of an
accident, the front seat belt retractors
contain a load limiter which controls the
force acting on the chest and
shoulders during the belt restraining
action in the event of a head-on
collision.GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USING THE SEAT BELTS
73) 74) 75)
Respect and ensure that all the other
occupants of the vehicle comply with
the local laws in force regarding the use
of seat belts. Always fasten the seat
belts before setting off.
Seat belts must also be worn by
pregnant women: the risk of injury in
the event of an accident is reduced for
them and the unborn child if they are
wearing a seat belt.Pregnant women must position the
lower part of the belt very low down so
that it passes over the pelvis and under
the abdomen fig. 69. While pregnancy
progresses, the driver must adjust
both seat and steering wheel to have
full control over the vehicle (pedals and
steering wheel must be easy to
access). The maximum clearance
should be kept between the abdomen
and the steering wheel.
The seat belt must not be twisted. The
upper part must pass over the shoulder
and cross the chest diagonally. The
lower part must adhere to the pelvis fig.
70, not to the abdomen of the
occupant. Never use devices (clips,
clamps, etc.) that hold the seat belt
away from your body.

circumstances, the electronic clutch
control could cut in by interpreting the
incorrect driving style as a fault.
WARNING
110)Depress the clutch pedal fully to
change gear correctly. Therefore, the floor
area underneath the pedal unit must not
be obstructed in any way. Ensure that the
floor mat is always laid flat and does not
interfere with use of the pedals.

❒use the key A fig. 124 to loosen the
fixing stud bolts by about one turn.
With alloy rims it is recommended to
"shake" the vehicle to facilitate
detachment of the rim from the wheel
hub;
❒position the jack under the vehicle,
near the wheel to be changed;❒insert the key A fig. 125 on the
hexagonal part of the jack B to extend it
until the top splined area fits correctly
into the sidemember C of the vehicle,
next to the symbol
on the
sidemember itself;
❒alert any bystander that the vehicle is
about to be raised; all persons should
be kept away from the vehicle and
nobody must touch it until it has been
lowered;❒use the key A to operate the jack
(clockwise) and lift the vehicle until the
wheel is several centimetres off the
ground;
❒use the key A to undo the stud bolts
completely and remove the punctured
tyre;
❒make sure the contact surfaces
between space-saver wheel and hub
are clean and free from impurities
so that the fixing stud bolts will not
come loose;

IN AN EMERGENCY
15-12-2014 8:23 Pagina 134

❒place the punctured tyre in the boot
upside down (with the outer part facing
upwards), then reposition the jack
and the used tools;
❒reposition the boot mat then
reposition the reconfigurable load
platform in a flat position (see "Boot" in
the "Knowing your vehicle" chapter).
Restore the standard wheel as soon as
possible, because, once placed in the
associated compartment, the boot load
platform is rendered uneven as the
standard wheel is larger than the
space-saver wheel.
WARNING
132)If left in the passenger compartment,
the punctured wheel and jack constitute
a serious risk to the safety of occupants in
the event of accidents or sharp braking.
Therefore, always place both the jack and
punctured wheel in the dedicated housing
in the boot.
133)It is extremely dangerous to attempt
to change a wheel on the side of the
vehicle next to the driving lane: make sure
that the vehicle is at a sufficient distance
from the road, to avoid being run over.
134)Alert other drivers that the vehicle is
stationary in compliance with local
regulations: hazard warning lights, warning
triangle, etc. Any passengers on board
should leave the vehicle, especially if it is
heavily laden. Passengers should stay
away from on-coming traffic while the
wheel is being changed. For safety
reasons, always block the wheels with the
chocks provided.135)The vehicle's driving characteristics
will be 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!
136)The space-saver wheel is specific to
your vehicle: do not use it on other models,
or use the space-saver wheel of other
models on your vehicle. The space-saver
wheel must only be used in the event of an
emergency. It must only be used for the
distance necessary to reach a service point
and the vehicle speed must not exceed
80 km/h. The space-saver wheel has
an orange label that summarises the main
cautions for use and limitations. Never
remove or cover the sticker.

160)Do not travel if the windscreen washer
reservoir is empty: using the windscreen
washer is essential for improving visibility.
Repeated operation of the system without
fluid could damage or cause rapid
deterioration of some system components.
161)Certain commercial additives for
windscreen washer fluids are inflammable.
The engine compartment contains hot
components which may set it on fire.
162)Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
corrosive. In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the affected
parts with water and mild soap. Then rinse
thoroughly. In the case of swallowing
immediately call a doctor.
163)The symbol
, which is on the
container, indicates a synthetic brake fluid,
which is different from a mineral fluid.
Use of a mineral-based fluid will damage
the special rubber seals of the braking
system beyond repair.
164)Battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin and
eyes. Keep naked flames or possible
sources of sparks away from the battery:
risk of explosion or fire.
165)Using the battery when the fluid is too
low can damage it irreparably and generate
a risk of explosion.
166)When performing any operation on
the battery or near it, always protect your
eyes with special goggles.
WARNING
58)Be careful not to confuse the various
types of fluids while topping up: they
are not compatible with each other!
Topping up with an unsuitable fluid could
severely damage your vehicle.
59)The oil level should never exceed the
MAX mark.
60)Do not add oil with specifications other
than those of the oil already in the engine.
61)PARAFLU
UP
anti-freeze is used in
the engine cooling system. Use fluid of the
same type as that contained in the cooling
system for any top-ups. PARAFLU
UP
cannot be mixed with any other type of
fluid. If this happens, do not start the
engine under any circumstances
and contact a Fiat Dealership.
62)Avoid allowing brake fluid, which is
extremely corrosive, to come into contact
with painted areas. Should it happen, wash
immediately with water.
63)If the vehicle must remain unused for a
long time at a very low temperature,
remove the battery and take it to a warm
place, to avoid freezing.
64)Incorrect assembly of electrical and
electronic accessories may cause severe
damage to your vehicle. Go to a Fiat
Dealership if you want to install accessories
(e.g. anti-theft, radio phone, etc.): they will
suggest the most suitable devices and
advise you whether a higher capacity
battery needs to be installed.
WARNING
4)The used engine oil and the filter that
has been replaced contain substances that
are harmful to the environment. It is
advisable to contact a Fiat Dealership to
have the oil and filters changed.
5)Used transmission fluid contains
substances that are harmful to the
environment. It is advisable to contact a
Fiat Dealership to have the fluid changed.
6)Batteries contain substances which
are very dangerous for the environment.
For battery replacement, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
