SBR SYSTEM
IN BRIEF
The vehicle is fitted with a Seat
Belt Reminder system (SBR),
consisting of a buzzer and a
flashing warning light
on the
instrument panel which warns the
driver that the seat belt must be
fastened.
The buzzer can be deactivated
(until the next engine stop) as
follows:
❒fasten the driver's seat belt;
❒turn the ignition key to the MAR-ON
position;
❒wait for over 20 seconds and then
release one of the seat belts.
For permanent deactivation,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
With digital display, the SBR system
can only be reactivated at a Fiat
Dealership.
With multifunction display, the SBR
system can also be reactivated
through the set-up menu.
PRETENSIONERS
To increase the protective efficiency
of the front seat belts, the vehicle
is fitted with pretensioners. These
devices, in the event of a head-on
crash or side impact, rewind the
seat belts a few centimetres. In this
way, they ensure that the belts fit
tightly to the wearer before the
restraining action begins.
The retractor locks to indicate that
the pretensioner has intervened; the
seat belt cannot be drawn back
up even when guiding it manually.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action
of the pretensioner, wear the seat
belt tight to the chest and pelvis.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of
the pretensioner which is not
harmful and does not involve any
fire hazard.
