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.

❒Always check that the seat belts do not restrain the child's throat.
❒While travelling, do not let the child sit incorrectly or release the belts.
❒Never carry children on your lap, even newborns. No-one can restrain a child in the event of an
accident.
❒In the event of an accident, replace the child's seat with a new one.
NoteDo not place a cradle seat facing backwards on the front seat if the passenger side airbags are on.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident could cause fatal injuries to the baby regardless of the severity of

FRONT AIRBAGSThe car is fitted with front airbags for the driver
and the passenger, and with a knee bag on the
driver's side (for versions/markets, where
provided).
The front driver/passenger airbags and the driver's
knee bag (for versions/markets, where provided)
have been designed to protect the front seat
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-deployment in other types of
impacts (side impacts, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.)
does not indicate a system malfunction.
In the event of a frontal impact, an electronic
control unit triggers the inflation of the bags if
required. The cushions immediately inflate, placing
themselves between the front occupants' bodies
and structures that could cause injuries.
Immediately after, the cushions deflate.
The front driver/passenger airbags and the driver's
knee bag (for versions/markets, where provided)
are not a replacement for, but rather complement
the use of, seat belts, which should always be worn,
as specified by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
In the event of an impact, those not wearing a seat
belt will move forward and come into contact
with the bag which is still inflating. The protection
offered by the bag is compromised in these
circumstances.Front airbags may not be activated 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, etc.);
❒car wedging under other vehicles or protective
barriers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they may not provide any additional protection
compared with seat belts, so their deployment
would be inappropriate. In these cases, non-
deployment does not indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
Do not apply stickers or other objects
to the steering wheel, passenger side
airbag cover or upper side upholstery. Do not
place objects on the passenger side dashboard
because these could interfere with the correct
opening of the passenger airbag and cause
injury to occupants.
FRONT AIRBAG DRIVER'S SIDE
This consists of an instantly inflating bag contained
in a special compartment in the centre of the
steering wheel fig. 131.

WARNING
Always drive with both hands on the
steering wheel so that , if the airbags
must be deployed, they may do so freely. Do
not drive with your body bent forward. Keep
your back straight against the backrest .
FRONT AIRBAG PASSENGER'S SIDE
This consists of an instantly inflating bag contained
in a special recess in the dashboard: this bag has
a larger volume than that of the driver fig. 132.
The front driver and passenger airbags are designed
and calibrated to best protect front-seat passengers
wearing seat belts.The volume of the front airbags at max. inflation
fills most of the space between the steering wheel
and the driver and between the dashboard and
the passenger.
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.
