All child restraint devices must bear the
certification data, together with the control mark,
on a label solidly 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.
Lineaccessori Fiat offers child restraint systems for
each weight group. These devices are
recommended, since they are specifically designed
and tested for Fiat cars.
WARNING
Do not place a cradle seat facing
backwards on the front seat if the
passenger side airbags are enabled.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident could
cause fatal injuries to the baby regardless of
the severity of the collision. It is advisable
to always carr y children in a child seat on the
rear seat , which is the most protected position
in the event of a collision.
WARNING
SERIOUS DANGER: if you need to
carr y a child on the front passenger
seat in a cradle seat facing backwards,
the passenger side airbags (front and
side bags for chest/pelvis protection for
versions/markets, where provided) must be
deactivated using the setup menu. It is
important to check the performed
deactivation of the warning light on the
instrument panel.The passenger seat must also
be positioned back as far as possible in order
to avoid the child seat from coming into
contact with the dashboard.

the interior of the car may be covered with dusty
residue. This dust can irritate skin and eyes. Wash
with mild soap and water in the event of exposure.
3) Should an accident occur in which any of the
safety devices are activated, take the vehicle to
a Fiat Dealership to have the activated devices
replaced and to have the whole system checked.
Every control, repair and replacement operation
concerning the airbags must only be carried out at
a Fiat Dealership.
If you are having the car scrapped, have the airbag
system deactivated at a Fiat Dealership first. If
the car changes ownership, the new owner must be
informed of the method of use of the airbags and
the above warnings, and also be given this "Owner's
Handbook".
4) Pretensioners, front airbags and front side bags
are deployed differently according to the type of
collision. Failure to deploy of one or more of
the devices does not indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
If the warning light
does not turn on
when the key is turned to MAR-ON,
or if it stays on when travelling (together with
the message on the display on some versions),
there could be a failure in the restraint
systems. If this is the case, the airbags or
pretensioners may not trigger in the event of
an accident or, less likely, they may trigger
accidentally. Contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately to have the system checked.
WARNING
The expiration dates of the explosive
charge and the clock spring are shown
on a specific label contained in the lower glove
compar tment . Contact a Fiat Dealership to
have the devices replaced when the expiration
date approaches.
WARNING
Do not travel carrying objects in your
lap, in front of your chest or between
your lips (pipe, pencils, etc .): they could cause
severe injur y if the airbag is deployed in an
accident .
