SIDE BAGS
The vehicle is fitted with front side bags for driver and
passenger (for versions/markets where provided) for
protecting the chest and window bags (for versions/
markets where provided) for protecting front and rear
passengers’ heads.
Side bags (for versions/markets where provided) protect
occupants from side impacts of medium-high severity, by
placing the bag between the occupant and the internal
parts of the side structure of the vehicle. Non-activation
of side bags in other types of collisions (head-on
collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc...) is not an
indication of system malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the bags to inflate
in the event of a side impact. The bags inflate
instantaneously placing themselves between the
occupants’ bodies and the structures which could cause
injury. They deflate immediately afterwards.
Side bags (for versions/markets where provided) are not
a replacement of but complementary to the belts, which
you are recommended to always wear, as specified by
law in Europe and most non-European countries.
FRONT SIDE BAGS – CHEST AND PELVIS
ZONE fig. 157 (for versions/markets where provided)
Housed in the seats’ backrests, they consist of an
instantly-inflating bag designed to protect the occupants’
chest and pelvis zone in the event of a side impact of
medium-high severity. MANUAL DEACTIVATION OF PASSENGER’S
FRONT AIR BAG AND SIDE BAG CHEST
PROTECTION
(for versions/markets where provided)
Whenever a child needs to be carried on the front seat,
the passenger’s front airbag and the Side Bag chest
protection (for versions/markets where provided) must
be deactivated.
The instrument panel warning light
Fwill switch on
constantly until the passenger’s front air bag and Side
Bag (chest protection) are reactivated (for versions/
markets where provided).
To deactivate the passenger’s front air
bag and the side bag (chest protection)
(for versions/markets where provided), refer to
paragraphs “Digital display” and “Multifunction
display” in section “Dashboard and controls”.

INDEX
With ignition key inserted, on MAR-ON,
even if the engine is off, the air bags can
activate even with the vehicle stopped, if it is hit
by another vehicle. For this reason, children
must never sit on the front seat, even if the
vehicle is not moving. On the other hand,
whenever the key is positioned on STOP,
the safety devices (airbags or pretensioners)
do not deploy after a collision. In this case
non-deployment of these devices does not
indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
If the vehicle has been subject to theft
or a theft attempt or if it has been
affected by vandalism, flooding or inundation,
have the air bag system checked at a Fiat
Dealership.
WARNING
Turning the ignition key to MAR-ON, the
warning light F(airbag on passenger’s
side enabled) goes on and flashes for a few
seconds, thus reminding the passenger that the
airbag on his/her side will deploy in the event of
a collision. After this time, the light goes off.
WARNING
Do not wash the car seats with water or
pressurised steam (either by hand or at
automatic washing stations).
WARNING
The front airbag is deployed in the event
of collisions with a more severe nature
than those required to activate the
pretensioners. For collisions in the range
between the two activation thresholds, the fact
that only the pretensioners activate is normal.
WARNING
Always drive keeping your hands on the
rim of the steering wheel so that, in the
event of airbag activation, it can inflate without
meeting obstacles. Do not drive with your body
bent forward. Keep the backrest in an upright
position, resting your back on it firmly.
WARNING
Do not hook rigid objects to clothes
hangers or to the support handles.
The air bag does not replace seat belts but
increases their efficiency. Furthermore, since
front air bags are not deployed in low speed
collisions, side collisions, rear-end shunts or roll-
overs, the passengers are only protected by the
seat belts which must be fastened at all times.

HANDBRAKE fig. 159
The handbrake lever is located to the left side of the
driver’s seat. Pull the lever upwards to engage the
handbrake and ensure that the vehicle does not move.
Four or five notches are normally sufficient to brake the
vehicle on flat ground, while nine or ten may be
necessary on a steep slope with the vehicle loaded.
IMPORTANT If this is not the case, contact a Fiat
Dealership to have the handbrake adjusted.
When the handbrake lever is pulled up and the ignition
key is at
MAR-ON, the instrument panel warning light
xwill turn on. Proceed as follows to release the
handbrake:
❒slightly lift the handbrake and press the release
button
A;
❒keep button Apressed and lower the lever.
The warning light
xon the instrument panel will
turn off.
Press the brake pedal when carrying out this operation
to prevent the vehicle from moving accidentally.
IMPORTANT Apply the handbrake lever only when
the vehicle is at a standstill or with the vehicle in
motion only in the event of a fault in the hydraulic
system. If exceptional use is made of the handbrake
with the vehicle in motion, moderate traction is
advisable in order not to cause locking of the rear end
with consequent swerving of the vehicle.
PARKING THE VEHICLE
Proceed as follows:
❒stop the engine and engage the handbrake;
❒engage a gear (on a slope, engage first gear if the
vehicle is faced uphill or reverse if it is faced
downhill) and leave the wheels steered.
If the vehicle is parked on a steep slope, it is advisable
to block the wheels with a wedge or stone. Do not
leave the key in the ignition switch to prevent draining
the battery. Always remove the key when you leave
the vehicle.
Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle. Always remove the ignition
key when leaving the vehicle and take it out
with you.
