The LED comes on in the following cases:
❒after each door lock command generated by the
button D or by button
Áin the dashboard;
❒when the instrument panel is activated;
❒upon opening of one of the front doors;
❒when the door is locked at 20 km/h (if activated
from the menu).
The lock is turned off when one of the load
compartment doors is opened or on a door release
request (load compartment or centralised) or an
unlocking request from the remote control/door catch.
DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets where provided)
This safety device inhibits the operation of:
❒interior handles;
❒locking/unlocking buttons A-B fig. 112;
thereby preventing the opening of the doors from inside
the passenger compartment if there has been a break-in
attempt (e.g. a window has been broken).
The dead lock device therefore offers the best possible
protection against break in attempts. We recommend
engaging it whenever the vehicle is parked and left
unattended.
Once the dead lock system is engaged it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the vehicle. Therefore, before engaging
the system check that there is no one left inside.
If the remote control battery is flat, the system
can only be disengaged by using the metal insert
in either of the door locks as described
previously: in this case the device only remains
on for the rear doors.
WARNING
Device activation
The dead lock device is automatically activated on every
door when pressing the remote control button
Ábriefly
twice, fig. 109.
Device activation is indicated by 3 flashes of the
direction indicators and the flashing of the LED on
button A-fig. 112 on the dashboard.
If one of the doors is not perfectly shut, the dead lock
device will not be activated, thus preventing a person
getting into the car through the open door and, on
shutting it, remaining stuck inside the passenger
compartment.

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. 153 (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.

INTERIORS
Periodically check that water is not trapped under the
mats (due to water dripping off shoes, umbrellas, etc.)
which could cause oxidisation of the sheet metal.
Detergents pollute the environment.
The vehicle should be washed in areas
equipped for collecting and purifying the
liquid used in the washing process.
Glasses
To clean glasses, use specific window cleaner products.
Also use clean cloths to avoid scratching the glass or
damaging the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the rear window inside gently with
a cloth in the direction of the filaments to avoid
damaging the heating device.
Engine compartment
Wash the engine compartment thoroughly at the end of
every winter. Be careful not to direct the jet of water
onto electronic control units. Adequately protect the
upper air vents to prevent damage to the windscreen
wiper motor. Have this operation performed at a
specialised workshop.
IMPORTANT The washing should take place with the
engine cold and the ignition key in the STOP position.
After the washing operation, make sure that the various
protections (e.g. rubber caps and guards) have not been
removed or damaged.
Front headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic substances (e.g.:
petrol) or ketones (e.g.: acetone) for cleaning the front
headlight plastic lenses.
Never use flammable products, such as
petrol, ether or rectified petrol, to clean
the vehicle interior. The electrostatic charges
which are generated by rubbing during the
cleaning operation may cause a fire.
WARNING
Do not keep aerosol cans in the vehicle:
risk of explosion Aerosol cans must not
be exposed to a temperature exceeding 50 °C.
When the vehicle is exposed to sunlight, the
internal temperature can greatly exceed this
value.

INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior parts with a moist cloth
and a solution of water and mild soap. Use specific
products for cleaning plastic, without solvents and
specifically designed to prevent damage to the
appearance and colour of the treated parts to remove
grease and tough stains.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol or petroleum to clean
the instrument panel.
LEATHER STEERING WHEEL/GEAR KNOB
These components must be cleaned with mild soap and
water only.
Never use alcohol and/or alcohol-based products.
Before using off-the-shelves products designed for
cleaning car interiors, make sure that they do not
contain alcohol and/or alcohol based substances before
using them.
If window cleaner accidentally drips onto the steering
wheel or gear lever knob, wipe away immediately and
then wash the affected area with mild soap and water.
IMPORTANT Be careful when using a steering wheel
lock device, where applicable, to prevent damaging the
leather upholstery by rubbing. SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner. It is
advisable to use a moist brush on velvet upholstery.
Rub the seats with a sponge moistened with a solution
of water and neutral detergent.
The fabric upholstery of your vehicle is
designed to withstand the normal wear
and tear of your vehicle for a long time.
You are however recommended to avoid strong
and/or continuous scratching with clothing
accessories such as metal buckles, studs, Velcro
fastenings and the like, as these items cause stress
of the cover fabric that could lead threads to
break and damage the upholstery.
