POWER SUPPLY AND
FUEL CUT-OFF SWITCH
The vehicle is fitted with a safety switch that
in the event of a crash comes into opera-
tion by cutting off fuel and turning off the en-
gine as a consequence. When the inertial
switch cuts in, fuel supply is stopped and haz-
ard and sidelights will turn on, for turning
off press button A. An additional safety
switch is also fitted, that in the event of a
crash comes into operation by cutting off the
power supply. These two safety switches
therefore prevent dangerous fuel leaks due
to fuel line cracking and sparks or electric dis-
charges due to damaging or malfunctioning
of the electric components of the vehicle in
the event of a crash.
IMPORTANT After a crash, remember to
remove the key from the ignition device to
prevent battery run-down.
If, after a crash no fuel leaks or damages to
the electric devices (e.g. headlights) are
found and the vehicle can be started again,
reset the fuel cut-off switch and the power
supply cut-off switch (where provided). Fol-
low the instructions given below.
fig. 82F0N0047mfig. 84F0N0048m
If, after a crash, you smell fu-
el or see leaks from the fuel
system, do not reset the switches to
avoid fire risk.

Parking manoeuvres howev-
er are always under the dri-
ver’s responsibility that shall always
check the absence of people (spe-
cially children) or animals in the ma-
noeuvre space. This system is just a
help for the driver but she/he shall
never reduce attention during dan-
gerous manoeuvres even if performed
at low speed.
WARNING
GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, take the utmost care
to obstacles that may be set above or
under the sensors.
❒Objects set close to the vehicle, un-
der certain circumstances are not de-
tected and could therefore cause
damages to the vehicle or be dam-
aged.
Below are listed some conditions that
could affect the parking system perfor-
mance:
❒Reduced sensor sensitivity or re-
duced parking system performance
could be due to the presence on the
sensor surface of: ice, snow, mud,
multiple painting.
❒The sensor detects a non-existent ob-
ject (“echo disturbances”) caused by
disturbances of mechanical nature,
e.g.: vehicle washing, rain (extreme
wind conditions), hail.
❒Indications sent by the sensors can al-
so be altered by ultrasound systems
(e.g.: truck pneumatic brakes or pneu-
matic hammers) set nearby the vehi-
cle.
❒Parking system performance could al-
so be affected by sensor position. For
instance, when trimming is changed
(due to wear of shock absorbers, sus-
pensions) or when changing tyres,
loading excessively the vehicle, car-
rying out specific tuning for lowering
the vehicle.
❒Obstacle detection at the top of the
vehicle (specially for vans or chassis
cabs) could not be guaranteed since
the system detects obstacles that can
strike the bottom of the vehicle.

ACCESSORIES
PURCHASED BY THE
OWNER
If after buying the vehicle, you decide to
install electrical accessories that require a
permanent electric supply (alarm, satellite
antitheft system, etc.) or accessories that
in any case burden the electric supply,
contact Fiat Dealership, whose qualified
personnel, besides suggesting the most
suitable devices belonging to Lineaccessori
Fiat, will also evaluate the overall electric
absorption, checking whether the vehicle
electric system is able to withstand the
load required, or whether it needs to be
integrated with a more powerful battery.
For connection to existing ve-
hicle presetting system, con-
tact Fiat Dealership to prevent any
trouble that could impair vehicle safe-
ty.
WARNING
fig. 129F0N0158mTake care when fitting addi-
tional spoilers, alloy rims and
non-standard wheel caps: they might
reduce ventilation of the brakes, thus
their efficiency, during abrupt and re-
peated braking, or long downhill
slopes. Make sure that nothing (mats,
etc.) gets in the way of the pedals
when they are pushed down.
WARNING
INSTALLATION OF ELECTRIC/
ELECTRONIC DEVICES
Electric/electronic devices installed after
buying the vehicle or in aftermarket shall
bear the and marking:
Fiat Auto S.p.A. authorizes the installation
of transceivers provided that installation
is carried out at a specialized shop, work-
manlike performed and in compliance with
manufacturer's specifications.
IMPORTANT Installation of devices re-
sulting in modifications of vehicle charac-
teristics may cause driving license seizing
by traffic agents and also the lapse of the
warranty as concerns defects due to the
abovementioned modification or traceable
back to it directly or indirectly.
Fiat Auto S.p.A. declines all responsibility
for damages caused by the installation of
non-genuine accessories or not recom-
mended by Fiat Auto S.p.A. and installed
not in compliance with the specified re-
quirements.

PRESETTING FOR
MOUNTING THE
“UNIVERSAL ISOFIX”
CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEM
This vehicle is preset for mounting the
Universal Isofix child restraint system, a
new European standardised system for
carrying children safely.
Fig. 11shows a child restraint system by
way of example.
Due to its different anchoring system, the
Universal Isofix child’s seat shall be an-
chored to the proper lower metal rings
A-fig. 12, set between rear seat back and
cushion. The upper belt (provided with
the child’s seat) shall be then secured to
ring B-fig. 13located in the rear part of
the seat.
It is possible to mount at the same time
both the traditional restraint system and
the “Universal Isofix” one.
Remember that in case of Universal Isofix
child’s seat, you can only use all those
seats approved with the marking ECE
R44/03 “Universal Isofix”.

fig. 12F0N0234m
fig. 13F0N0235m
At Lineaccessori Fiat is available the “Uni-
versal Isofix” “Duo Plus” child’s seat.
For any further installation/use detail, re-
fer to the “Instructions Manual” that must
be provided by the child restraint system
Manufacturer.
Mount the child restraint
system only with the vehicle
stationary. The Isofix child restraint
system is properly anchored to the
mounting brackets when clicks are
heard. In any case, keep to the in-
stallation instructions that must be
provided by the child restraint system
Manufacturer.

INSTALLING THE TOW
HOOK
The towing device should be fastened to
the body by specialised personnel accord-
ing to any additional and/or integrative in-
formation supplied by the Manufacturer of
the device.
The towing device must meet current reg-
ulations with reference to 94/20/EC Di-
rective and subsequent amendments.
For any version the towing device used
must match the towable weight of the ve-
hicle on which it is to be installed.
For the electric connection a unified con-
nector should be used which is generally
placed on a special bracket normally fas-
tened to the towing device, and a special
ECU for external trailer light control shall
be installed on the vehicle.
For the electrical connection, 7 or 13 pin
12VDC connection is to be used (CU-
NA/UNI and ISO/DIN Standards). Follow
the instructions provided by the vehicle
manufacturer and/or the tow hitch man-
ufacturer.An electric brake should be supplied di-
rectly by the battery through a cable with
a cross section of no less than 2.5 mm
2.
IMPORTANT Electric brake or other de-
vice shall be used with running engine.
In addition to the electrical branches, the
vehicle’s electric system can only be con-
nected to the supply cable for an electric
brake and to the cable for an internal light,
though not above 15W.
For connections use the preset control
unit with battery cable no less than 2.5
mm
2.
IMPORTANT The towing hitch consti-
tutes the length of the vehicle; therefore
if the total vehicle length exceeds the 6
meter limit and if it is to be installed on
“long pitch” versions, you will have to in-
stall an extractable towing hitch.
Remove the hitch from the connection
base when the trailer is not being used and
make sure that the length does not exceed
the original length of the vehicle.
IMPORTANT If you wish to leave the
tow-hook fitted permanently without
towing a trailer, it is important to ask your
Fiat Dealership to update the System
because the tow hook could be detected
as an obstacle by the central sensors. Do not exceed the speed limits of the
country you are driving in. In any case do
not exceed 100 km/h.
Fit a suitable towing stabilizer to the trail-
er to be towed.
The ABS system with which
the vehicle may be fitted
does not control the trailer braking
system. Therefore be cautious on slip-
pery roads.
WARNING
Under no circumstances
should the vehicle brake sys-
tem be altered to control the trailer
brake. The trailer braking system
must be fully independent of the ve-
hicle’s hydraulic system.
WARNING
