The results of research on the best
child restraint systems are contained
in the European Standard ECE-R44.
This Standard enforces the use of re-
straint systems classified in five groups:
Group 0 0-10 kg in weight
Group 0+ 0-13 kg in weight
Group 1 weight 9-18 kg
Group 2 15-25 kg in weight
Group 3 22-36 kg in weight
The groups partially overlap. This is
because there are systems which cov-
er more than one weight group.
All restraint devices must bear the
certification data, together with the
control brand, on a solidly fixed label
which must absolutely never be re-
moved.
Over 1.50 m in height, from the
point of view of restraint systems, chil-
dren are considered as adults and
wear the seat belts normally.
Lineaccessori Fiat offers seats for
each weight group, which are the rec-
ommended choice, as they have been
designed and experimented specifical-
ly for Fiat vehicles.GROUP 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried
facing backwards on a cradle seat,
which, supporting the head, does not
induce stress on the neck in the event
of sharp deceleration.
The cradle is restrained by the vehi-
cle seat belts, as shown infig. 14and
in turn it must restrain the child with
its own belts.The figure is only an ex-
ample for mounting. At-
tain to the instructions
for fastening which must be en-
closed with the specific child re-
straining system you are using.
GROUP 1
Children from 9 to 18 kg are to be
seated facing forward in child seats
with front cushionfig. 15. The vehi-
cle seat belt secures both seat and
child.

17GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Seats exist which are
suitable for covering
weight groups 0 and 1
with a rear connection to the ve-
hicle belts and their own belts to
restrain the child. Due to their
size, they can be dangerous if in-
stalled incorrectly fastened to the
vehicle belts with a cushion.
Carefully follow the instructions
for installation provided with the
seat.GROUP 2
Children from 15 to 25 kg can be se-
cured directly with the vehicle seat
belts. The seat has the purpose of po-
sitioning the child correctly with re-
spect to the seat belt so that the di-
agonal section crosses the child’s chest
(never the child’s throat) and the hor-
izontal section fits snugly on the child’s
hips (and not the child’s abdomen) fig.
16.GROUP 3
For children from 22 kg up to 36 kg
the size of the child’s chest no longer
requires a support to space the child’s
back from the seat back.
Fig. 17shows proper child seat po-
sitioning on the rear seat.
Children taller than 1.50 m can wear
seat belts like adults.
The figure is only an ex-
ample. Attain to the in-
structions for fastening
which must be enclosed with the
specific child restraint system you
are using.

79GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
When using the boot,
make sure the load you
are carrying does not ex-
ceed the permitted weight (see
“Technical specifications”). Also
ensure the items in the boot are
arranged properly to prevent
them being thrown forwards and
injuring passengers should you
brake sharply. Do not travel with
the tailgate open: exhaust gas
could filter into the passenger
compartment.
If you are travelling in
areas where refuelling
can be difficult and you
want to carry a can of petrol, fol-
low the law in force. Use a ho-
mologated can and secure it ad-
equately. Even given these pre-
cautions, the risk of fire in the
event of an accident is increased.
Do not use the key as a
handle to open the tail-
gate. You could damage
it.
The opening of the boot is made eas-
ier by the gas-filed struts on each side.
IMPORTANTFit the key well into
the lock before turning it.
You will be able to open the tailgate
with the key only if you remove the
key from the lock after turning it by 45
degrees.
To close, lower the tailgate until the
lock clicks.
CENTRAL DOOR LOCKING
SYSTEM
From the outside
With the doors closed, fit and turn
the key in one of the front door locks.IMPORTANTAdjust the height of
the dipped headlight beam when trav-
elling at night with a rather heavy load
in the boot (see “Headlights” in this
chapter).
Make sure the load does not exceed
the values shown in “Weights” para-
graph, “Technical specifications” chap-
ter for correct operation of the head-
light adjustment device.
Do not knock the tail-
gate into objects on the
roof rack when you open
it.

110DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE
Some suggestions which may help
you to keep the running costs of the
vehicle down and lower the amount
of toxic emissions released into the at-
mosphere are given below.
GENERAL
CONSIDERATIONS
Vehicle maintenance
The overall state of the vehicle is an
important factor which has a marked
influence over fuel consumption and
driving comfort and on the life span of
your vehicle. For this reason care
should be taken to maintain your ve-
hicle by carrying out the necessary
checks and regulations in accordance
with the specifications given in the
SERVICE SCHEDULE (see sections:
spark plugs, idling, air cleaners, diesel
fuel filter, timing).Tyres
Tyre pressure should be checked at
least once every four weeks: if the
pressure is too low fuel consumption
increases as the resistance to the
rolling movement of the tyre is
greater. In this state, tyre wear is in-
creased and handling suffers which will
effect safety.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with too much load in
the boot. The weight of the vehicle
and its trim greatly effects consump-
tion and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack
from the roof as soon as they are no
longer used.
These accessories reduce the aero-
dynamic penetration of the vehicle and
will increase consumption. Whentransporting particularly large objects,
use a trailer, where possible.
Electric devices
Use electric devices for the neces-
sary time only. The heated rear win-
dow, fog lights, windscreen wipers,
heater fan require large amounts of
electricity and increasing the request
for power will also increase fuel con-
sumption (up to +25% when driving in
towns).
Climate control system
The climate control system is an ad-
ditional load which greatly effects the
engine leading to higher consumption
(up to +20% in average). When the
temperature outside allows, use the
air vents where possible.
Aerodynamic accessories
The use of non-certified aerodynamic
items may adversely affect air drag and
consumption levels.

TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT NOTES
The vehicle must be fitted with a ho-
mologated tow hitch and suitable elec-
trical system for towing a caravan or
trailer. Installation must be carried out
by skilled personnel who will issue
documentation authorising circulation
on the road.
Install any specific and/or additional
rear-view mirrors in accordance with
the Highway Code.
Remember that towing a trailer
makes it harder for the vehicle to
climb the maximum gradients speci-
fied.Engage a low gear when driving
downhill rather than constantly brak-
ing.
The weight the trailer exerts on the
vehicle’s tow hitch coupling reduces
the vehicle’s payload by the same
amount.
To make sure the maximum towable
weight is not exceeded (given in the
log book) account should be taken of
the fully laden trailer, including acces-
sories and personal belongings.
Respect the speed limit for towing
trailers in the country you are travel-
ling in. In any case, do not exceed a
maximum speed of 100 km/h. Do not allow anything to
be sprayed onto the cat-
alytic converter, lambda
sensor and exhaust pipe.
When functioning nor-
mally the catalytic con-
verter reaches high tem-
peratures. For this reason do not
park the vehicle over inflamma-
ble material (grass, dry leaves,
pine needles etc.): fire hazard.
Ignoring the above rules
may lead to fire.
113DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE

114DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE
The tow hitch must comply with the
current regulation, with reference to
Directive 94/20/EC and amendments.
Install a tow hitch which is suitable
for the towing capacity of the vehicle.
Use a unified coupling for the elec-
trical connections. The coupling is gen-
erally fitted on a specific mount fas-
tened to the tow hitch.
For electrical connection, a 7 or 13
pole 12VDC coupling must be used
(CUNA/UNI and ISO/DIN standards).
Follow the instructions provided by
the manufacturer of the vehicle and/or
the tow hitch.
Use the specific trailer light fusebox
for electrical connections.
An electric brake should be supplied
directly by the battery through a cable
with a cross section of no less than 2.5
mm
2.In addition to the electrical connec-
tion, only the lead for powering an
electric brake and the lead to power
a light inside the trailer not exceed-
ing 15W may be connected to the ve-
hicle’s electrical system.
For connections use the preset con-
trol unit with battery cable no less
than 2,5 mm
2.
FITTING DIAGRAM
The trailer tow hitch is to be fixed in
the points indicated (see diagram fig.
4).
The plate 1must have a minimum
thickness of 6 mm. The fastening
points 2will be equipped with shims
’16 x 2 mm. The tow hitch structure
is fastened in the points shown with Ø
by means of six M8 screws and four
M10 screws.
Fasten the tow hitch to the body and
trim the bumper with the frame pro-
vided with the assembly kit.
After fitting the tow hitch, the emp-
ty vehicle weight will increase by ap-
proximately 15.5 kg. The ABS system will not
control the trailer braking
system. Great care
should therefore be taken when
driving on slippery road surfaces.
Under no circumstances
modify the vehicle’s brak-
ing system for trailer
braking control. The trailer’s
braking system must be com-
pletely independent of the vehi-
cle’s hydraulic system.
TOW HITCH INSTALLATION
The towing device should be fas-
tened to the body by specialised per-
sonnel according to any additional
and/or integrative information supplied
by the Manufacturer of the device.
