OCCUPANT
PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
The most important safety equipment
of the vehicle comprises the following
protection systems:
seat belts;
SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;
head restraints;
child restraint systems;
front airbags and side bags.
Read the information given the
following pages with the utmost care. It
is of fundamental importance that the
protection systems are used in the
correct way to guarantee the maximum
possible safety level for the driver and
the passengers.
SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
All vehicle seats are equipped with seat
belts with three anchor points and a
retractor. The retractor mechanism
operates locking the belt in the event of
sharp braking or strong deceleration
due to an impact.
This allows the belt strap to slide freely
and to adapt to the body of the
occupant. In the event of an accident,
the belt will lock reducing the risk of
impact inside the passenger
compartment and of being projected
outside the vehicle. The 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 chest straight and rested against
the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the
tongue A fig. 123 and insert it into the
buckle B, until it clicks into place.
If the seat belt jams during removal, let
it rewind for a short stretch, then pull
it out again without jerking.To unfasten the seat belts, press button
C. Guide the seat belt with your hand
while it is rewinding, to prevent it from
twisting.
60) 61)
The retractor may lock up 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 and
high-speed bends.
All rear seats (for Doblò/Doblò Combi
versions) are fitted with inertia seat belts
with three anchor points and a
retractor.
The rear seat belts (for Doblò/Doblò
Combi versions) must be worn as
shown in fig. 124 - fig. 125.
123F0V0023

SAFETY

IMPORTANT The backrest is correctly
secured when the red band on the
backrest folding handles A fig. 126
disappears. This red band indicates
that the backrest is not secured.
IMPORTANT After putting the rear
seats (for Doblò/Doblò Combi versions)
back to their normal operating position,
refit the seat belt so that it is ready for
use.
62)
ADJUSTING THE SEAT
BELT HEIGHT
63) 64)
The seat belt height can be adjusted to
various positions using the regulator
on the central pillar.
Always adjust the height of the seat
belts to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the event of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.
WARNING
60)Never press button C fig. 123when
travelling.
61)Remember that after a violent impact,
rear-seat passengers who are not wearing
their seat belts not only expose themselves
to significant risk for injury, but also
represent a danger to passengers
occupying the front seats.
62)Make sure that the backrest is correctly
secured on both sides (red bands B not
visible) to prevent it from moving forward in
the event of sharp braking, causing injuries
to passengers.
63)The height of the seat belts must be
adjusted with the vehicle stationary.
64)After the height adjustment, always
check that the regulator is locked in one of
the preset positions. To do this, push
downwards to enable the locking device to
click if the grip has not been released in
one of the possible positions.

SBR SYSTEM
This system comprises an acoustic
warning which, in conjunction with the
warning lights
flashing on the
instrument panel, warns the front seat
passengers if their seat belt has not
been fastened.
On some versions there is also a panel
fig. 127 (provided as an alternative to
the warning light on the instrument
panel) located above the rear-view
mirror, which warns the front and back
seat passengers via acoustic and
visual signals if their seat belts have not
been fastened.
Contact a Fiat Dealership to deactivate
this acoustic warning permanently.
The acoustic warning can be
reactivated at any time through the
Setup menu (see "Menu items"
paragraph in "Knowing the instrument
panel" chapter).The warning lights fig. 127 may be red
or green and operate as follows:
1 = front left seat (driver status for
left-hand drive versions);
2 = front right seat (passenger
status for left-hand drive versions);
3 = second row left rear seat
(passenger);
4 = second row central rear seat
(passenger);
5 = second row right rear seat
(passenger);
6 = third row left rear seat
(passenger);
7 = third row right rear seat
(passenger);FRONT SEATS (warning
light 1 = driver and 2 =
passenger)
Driver
If the driver is the only occupant and
the seat belt is not fastened, when 20
km/h is exceeded or when travelling
at a speed from 10 to 20 km/h for
longer than 5 seconds, a buzzer
sequence will be started for the front
seats (consisting of an acoustic warning
tone for 6 seconds followed by a 90
second beep). The warning light will
flash. The warning lights will stay on
constantly at the end of the cycle until
the engine is stopped. The acoustic
warning will be interrupted immediately
when the driver’s seat belt is fastened
and the warning light will turn green.
The reminder cycle (acoustic and visual)
will be repeated as described above
and the red warning light will flash if the
seat belt is unfastened again while
driving.
Passenger
A similar solution applies for the front
passenger, with the difference that the
warning light turns green and the
warning is interrupted also when the
passenger leaves the car.
127F0V0635
106
SAFETY

It both front seat belts are unfastened
while the car is travelling a few seconds
apart, the acoustic warning will refer
to the most recent event and the two
warning lights will proceed with the
visual indication independently.
REAR SEATS (warning
lights3—4—5—6—7)
The reminder cycle is run only when
any seat belt is unfastened (red
blinking). In this condition, the warning
light for the seat belt which has been
unfastened will turn red and blink for
approximately 30 seconds. An acoustic
warning is also emitted. The visual
indication (blinking red) will start and
end independently for each warning
light if several seat belts are unfastened.
The warning light will become green
when the relevant seat belt is fastened
again. The rear seat warning lights
will go out, if the front seat belts are
fastened, regardless of the state of the
belt (red or green) approximately 30
seconds after the last signal.
All the warning lights will come on when
at least one belt changes from
fastened to unfastened status or vice
versa.PRE-TENSIONERS
To increase the protective efficiency of
the front seat belts, the vehicle is fitted
with pretensioners. These devices, in
the event of a violent head-on crash or
side impact, rewind the seat belts a
few centimetres. In this way, they
ensure that the belts fit tightly to the
wearer before the restraining action
begins.
It is evident that the pretensioners have
been activated when the belt withdraws
toward the retractor. This car is also
equipped with a second pretensioner
(fitted in the kick plate area). Its
activation is signalled by the shortening
of the metal cable.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the
pretensioner which is not harmful and
does not involve 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 chest and pelvis.
65)
16)
LOAD LIMITERS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
To increase passenger safety, the
front and rear seat belt retractors (for
versions/markets where provided)
contain a load limiter which controls the
force acting on the chest and
shoulders during the belt restraining
action in the event of a frontal collision.
GENERAL WARNINGS
FOR USING THE SEAT
BELTS
Seat belts must also be worn by
pregnant mothers: the risk of injury in
the event of an accident is greatly
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 (see fig. 128).
While pregnancy progresses, the driver
must adjust both seat and steering
wheel to have full control over the car
(pedals and steering wheel must be
easy to access). The maximum
clearance should be kept between the
abdomen and the steering wheel.
107

IMPORTANT The 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 (as shown in fig. 129)
rather than the abdomen of the
passenger. Never use devices (clips,
clamps, etc.) that hold the seat belt
away from your body.
66)
Removing or tampering with seat belt
and pretensioner components is strictly
prohibited. Any intervention on these
components must be performed by
qualified and authorised technicians.
Always go to a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Never travel with a child
sitting on the passenger's lap with a
single belt to protect them both fig.
130. Do not fasten other objects to the
body.
67)
SEAT BELTS
MAINTENANCE
For keeping the seat belts in efficient
conditions, carefully observe the
following warnings:
always use the seat belt well
stretched and never twisted; make sure
that it is free to run without
obstructions;
check seat belt operation as follows:
attach the seat belt and pull it hard;
replace the belt after an accident of
a certain severity even if it does not
appear to be damaged. Always replace
the belt if the pretensioners were
deployed;
prevent the retractors from getting
wet: their correct operation is only
guaranteed if water does not get inside;
replace the seat belt when it shows
wear or cuts.
WARNING
65)The pretensioner may be used only
once. After it is triggered, have it replaced
at a Fiat Dealership.
66)For maximum safety, keep the backrest
upright, lean back into it and make sure
the seat belt fits closely across your chest
and pelvis. Always fasten the seat belts
on both the front and the rear seats!
Travelling without wearing seat belts will
increase the risk of serious injury and even
death in the event of an accident.
67)If the belt has been sharply pulled, for
example as the result of an accident, the
seat belt, together with the anchoring
devices, the anchoring device fixing screws
and the pretensioner must be completely
replaced. Even if the belt does not present
any exterior signs of wear or damage, it
may have lost its restraining properties.
