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”.

IMPORTANT A small amount of dust will be released
when the air bags 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.
The expiration dates of the explosive charge and the
clock wire are shown on a label contained in the glove
box. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the devices
replaced when the expiry date approaches.
IMPORTANT Should an accident occur in which any of
the safety devices is activated, take the car to a Fiat
Dealership to have the activated devices replaced and to
have the system checked.
Every control, repair and replacement operation
concerning the air bags must only be carried out at
a Fiat Dealership. SIDE WINDOW BAGS – HEAD PROTECTION
fig. 158 (for versions/markets where provided)
They consist of two curtain bags, one on the right and
the other on the left side of the vehicle, located behind
the side coverings of the roof and covered by special
finishing.
Window bags have been designed for protecting the
head of front occupants in the event of side impact,
thanks to the wide bag inflation surface.
IMPORTANT In the event of side impact, you can
obtain the best protection by the system by maintaining
a correct position on the seat, thus allowing the bags to
unfold correctly.
IMPORTANT The front air bags and/or side bags may
be deployed if the vehicle is subject to heavy knocks or
accidents involving the underbody area, such as for
example violent impacts, against steps, kerbs or low
obstacles, vehicle falling into big pot holes or
depressions in the road.

GENERAL WARNINGS 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 air bags and the above warnings and also
be given this “Owner Handbook”.
IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front airbags and front side
bags are deployed according to different logics on the
basic of the type of collision. Non-deployment of one of
the devices does not necessarily indicate a system
malfunction.
Never rest head, arms or elbows on the
door, on the windows or in the window
bag deployment area to prevent possible
injuries during the inflation phase.
WARNING
Never lean head, arms or elbows out of
window.
WARNING
If when turning the key to MAR-ON the
warning light
¬does not turn on or if it
stays on when travelling (together with the
message on the multifunction display,
for
versions/markets, where provided
) there could be
a failure in the safety systems; in this event air
bags or pretensioners may fail to trigger in the
event of impact or, in a lower number of cases,
they could trigger accidentally. Contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately to have the system
checked before driving off.
WARNING
Do not cover the front and rear seat
backrest with upholstery or seat covers
that hinder deployment of the side bag.
WARNING
Do not travel with objects in your lap,
in front of your chest, or with pipes,
pencils, etc. between your lips. In the event of
crash with airbag activation, you may be
seriously injured.

Unnecessary actions
Avoid accelerating when starting at traffic lights or
before switching off the engine. The latter action, like
doubling the clutch, is unnecessary and causes increase
of consumption and pollution.
Gear selection
Use a higher gear as soon as traffic and road conditions
allow. Using a low gear for faster acceleration will increase
consumption. In the same way improper use of a high gear
increases consumption, emissions an engine wear.
Max. speed
Fuel consumption considerably increases with speed.
Keep your speed as even as possible, avoiding unnecessary
braking and acceleration, which cause excessive fuel
consumption and increased emissions.
Acceleration
Accelerating violently will greatly affect consumption and
emissions: acceleration should therefore be gradual and
should not exceed the maximum torque. Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the amount of time
needed. Rear heated window, additional headlights,
windscreen wipers and heater fan need a considerable
amount of energy, therefore increasing the requirement
of current increases fuel consumption (up to +25% in
the urban cycle).
Climate control system
The climate control system is an additional load which
greatly affects the engine leading to higher consumption
(on average up to +20%). When the temperature
outside the car permits it, use the air vents where
possible.
Devices for aerodynamic control
The use of non-certified devices for aerodynamic
control may adversely affect air drag and consumption
levels.
DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine with the vehicle at a standstill or
at idle or high speed: under these conditions the engine
warms up much more slowly, increasing consumption and
emissions. It is therefore advisable to move off
immediately, slowly, avoiding high speeds. This way the
engine will warm faster.

❒cover the vehicle with a piece of fabric or perforated
plastic sheet. Do not use compact plastic tarpaulins,
which prevent humidity from evaporating from the
surface of the vehicle;
❒inflate tyres to a pressure of +0.5 bar above the
normal specified pressure and check it at intervals;
❒if you don’t disconnect the battery from the electric
system, check its charge every month and recharge it
if the optical indicator shows a dark colour without
the central green area;
❒do not drain the engine cooling system.
IMPORTANT If the vehicle is equipped with an alarm
system, switch off the vehicle alarm with the remote
control.
LONG VEHICLE INACTIVITY
If the vehicle needs to be off the road for longer than
one month, the following precautions must be taken:
❒park the vehicle indoors in a dry and, possibly, well-
ventilated place;
❒engage a gear;
❒check that the handbrake is not engaged;
❒disconnect the negative battery terminal and check
battery charge. Repeat this check once every three
months during storage. Recharge if the optical
indicator shows a dark colour without the central
green area (see “Battery recharging” in the section
“Dashboard and controls”); If the vehicle is equipped
with a battery disconnection function (disconnector),
see the description of the procedure in the
“Controls” paragraph in the “Dashboard and
controls” section;
❒clean and protect the painted parts using protective
wax;
❒clean and protect the shiny metal parts using special
commercially-available compounds;
❒sprinkle talcum powder on the rubber windscreen
and rear window wiper blades and lift them off
the glass;
