red
amber
amberEBD FAILURE
The simultaneous switching on of the
(red),
(amber) and(amber) warning lights (for
versions/markets, where provided), with the

system or that the system is not available. In this
case, the rear wheels may suddenly lock and the
vehicle may swerve when braking sharply.
The display shows the dedicated message.Drive very carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership
to have the system inspected immediately.

WARNING
94) If thewarning light does not switch on when the key is turned to MAR-ON or if it stays on when driving (together
with the message on the display), there may be a fault in the restraint systems; in this case, the airbags or
pretensioners may not deploy in the event of an accident or, in a lower number of cases, they could deploy
erroneously. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked.
95) The failure of the
warning light is indicated by thewarning light flashing or, depending on the version, by the
symbol constantly on in the display. In this case, thewarning light may not indicate a fault in the restraint
systems. Before continuing, contact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the system checked.
96) Deteriorated engine oil must be replaced as soon as possible after the
warning light comes on, and never more
than 500 km after it first switches on. Failure to observe the above indications may result in severe damage to the
engine and invalidate the warranty. Remember that when the warning light comes on, it does not mean that the level
of engine oil is low, so if it flashes you do not need to top up the engine oil.
97) If the
warning light flashes when driving, contact a Fiat Dealership.

SAFETY
The chapter that you are about to
read is very important: it describes
the safety systems with which
the car is equipped and provides
instructions on how to use them
correctly.SEAT BELTS ...................................156

Below is a summary
of the main safety
rules to be followed
when carrying
children
❒The recommended position for
installing child restraint systems is on
the rear seat, as it is the most
protected area in the event of an
impact.
❒If the passenger's front airbag is
deactivated always check the
dedicated LED on button
on the
instrument panel to make sure that it
has actually been deactivated.
❒Carefully follow the instructions that
come with the child restraint system,
which the manufacturer must supply.
Keep the instructions in the vehicle
along with the other papers and this
handbook. Do not use 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 the seat belts do
not restrain the child's throat.❒While travelling, do not let the child sit
incorrectly or unfasten the belts.
❒Never carry children on your lap,
even newborns. No-one can restrain
a child in the event of an accident.
❒In the event of an accident, replace
the child restraint system with a
new one.
