KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

PASSENGER SEAT COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATIONS ON UNIVERSAL CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM USE
The Fiat Doblò (only for vehicles designed to carry people), (homologation M1) complies with the new European Directive
2000/3/EC which governs the arrangement possibilities for child restraint systems on the seats of the vehicle as shown in the
following table:
Group Weight range Front passenger Rear passenger (1st row)Rear passenger
(2nd row)
Group 0, 0+ up to 13 kgUU X
Group 1 9 - 18 kgUU X
Group 2 15 - 25 kgUU X
Group 3 22 - 36 kgUU X
U= suitable for child restraint systems in the "Universal" category, according to European Regulation EEC-R44 for the specified "Groups".
X= seat not suitable for children in this weight category.
WARNING
69) SEVERE DANGER: When an active passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT install child restraint systems to be fitted
rearward facing on the front seat. Deployment of the airbag in an accident could cause fatal injuries to the child
regardless of the severity of the impact. It is advisable to always carry children in a child restraint system on the rear
seat, which is the most protected position in the event of a collision. Should it be necessary to carry a child on the
passenger side front seat in a rearward facing child restraint system, the passenger side front airbag and side bag
(side bag – for versions/markets, where provided) must be deactivated through the Setup menu. Deactivation should
be verified by checking whether the warning light above the front courtesy light is switched on. The passenger seat
must also be positioned back as far as possible in order to avoid the child restraint system from coming into contact
with the dashboard.
117

Below is a summary of
the main safety rules to
be followed when
carrying children:
❒install the child restraint systems on
the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of an
accident;
❒if you need to deactivate the
passenger airbag, always check that
the
warning light above the front
courtesy light is on constantly to
make sure that it has actually been
deactivated;
❒carefully follow the instructions that
came with the child restraint system,
which the manufacturer must supply
by law. Keep the instructions in the
vehicle along with the other papers
and this handbook. Do not install
second-hand child restraint systems
without instructions.
❒always check that the seat belt is well
fastened by pulling on it;
❒only one child is to be strapped into
each restraint system; never carry
two children using one child restraint
system;
❒always check that seat belts do not
rest on the child’s neck;
❒while travelling, do not let the child sit
incorrectly or release the belts;❒never carry children on your lap, even
newborns. No-one can hold a child in
the event of an accident.
❒in the event of an accident, replace
the child restraint system with a
new one.
73)
WARNING
72) Fit the child restraint system only
when the vehicle is stationary.
The child restraint system is
correctly fixed to the brackets
when you hear the click. Follow
the instructions for assembly,
disassembly and positioning that
the Manufacturer must supply
with the child restraint system.
73) When an active passenger
airbag is fitted, DO NOT install
rearward facing child restraint
systems on the front seat. Always
deactivate the passenger airbag
when a rearward facing child
restraint system is installed on the
front passenger seat.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The vehicle is fitted with front airbag for
the driver and, for versions/markets
where provided, front airbag for the
passenger.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front driver/passenger airbags (for
versions/markets where provided)
have been designed to protect the
front-seat occupants in the event of
head-on crashes of medium-high
severity, by placing the bag between
the occupant and the steering wheel or
dashboard.
Non-activation in other types of crash
(side-on collisions, rear shunts,
roll-overs, etc.) is therefore not a sign of
system malfunction.
An electronic control unit will make the
bag inflate in the event of a frontal
impact.
The bag will inflate instantaneously
placing itself between the front
occupants' body and the structures
which could cause injury. It will deflate
immediately afterwards.
121

Manual deactivation of
passenger side front
airbag and side bag for
chest/head protection
(for versions/markets, where provided)
For Doblò versions designed to carry
people (M1 type-approval), if a child
must of necessity be carried on the
front seat, sitting on a rearward facing
child restraint system, the passenger
front airbag and side bag for chest/
head protection (for versions/markets,
where provided) must be deactivated,
since, in the event of impact, airbag
activation may cause fatal injuries to the
child carried.
IMPORTANT To manually deactivate the
passenger's front and side airbags for
head and torso protection (for
versions/markets where provided), refer
to "Digital display" and “Multifunction
display” paragraph in the “Know your
vehicle” chapter.
The
warning light “ above the front
courtesy light fig. 139 signals the status
of passenger protection. If the warning
light is off, the passenger side
protection is activated.
When the front passenger side airbag
and side bag (for versions/markets
where provided) are activated again,
the warning light switches off.When the vehicle is started (key in MAR
position), the warning light turns on
for approx. 8 seconds. If not, contact a
Fiat Dealership.
During the first 8 seconds, the
activation of the warning light does not
actually show the passenger protection
status, but only checks its correct
operation.

WARNING
74) Do not apply stickers or other objects to the steering wheel, the dashboard in the passenger side airbag area and
the seats. Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the passenger side of the dashboard since they could interfere
with correct inflation of the passenger airbag and also cause serious injury to the passengers.
75) When an active passenger airbag is fitted, DO NOT install rearward facing child restraint systems on the front seat.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident could cause fatal injuries to the child regardless of the severity of the
impact. Therefore, always deactivate the passenger side airbag when a rearward facing child restraint system is
installed on the front passenger seat. The front passenger seat must also be positioned back as far as possible in
order to prevent the child restraint system from coming into contact with the dashboard. Immediately reactivate the
passenger airbag as soon as the child restraint system has been removed.
125

A small amount of dust will be released
when the airbags are deployed. The
dust is not harmful and does not
indicate the beginning of a fire.
Furthermore, the surface of the
deployed bag and the interior of the
vehicle may be covered in a dusty
residue: this may irritate your skin and
eyes. Wash with mild soap and water in
the event of exposure.
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
be carried out only at Fiat Dealerships.
If you are having the vehicle scrapped,
have the system deactivated at a Fiat
Dealership first. If the vehicle changes
ownership, the new owner must be
informed of how to use the airbags and
the above warnings and also be given
this "Owner Handbook".
Pretensioners, front airbags and front
side bags are deployed differently
according to the type of collision.
Failure to deploy of one of the devices
does not necessarily indicate a system
malfunction.
76) 77)
WARNING
76) If thewarning light does not
turn on when the key is turned to
MAR, 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. Before proceeding,
contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately to have the system
checked.
77) Do not travel carrying objects in
your lap, in front of your chest or
between your lips (pipe, pencils,
etc.): they could cause severe
injury if the airbag is deployed in
an accident.
