HEADLIGHTS
LIGHT BEAM DIRECTION
The correct direction of the headlights is essential
for the comfort and safety of the driver and other
road users. To ensure the best visibility when
travelling with the headlights on, the headlight
alignment must be correct. Contact a Fiat Dealership
to have the direction checked and, if necessary,
adjusted.
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition key in the MAR
position and the dipped headlights on.
The vehicle tilts backwards when it is laden, raising
the beam.
The beams must therefore be aimed again in this
case.Adjusting headlight alignment
Press theorbuttons on the control
panelfig. 100.
The instrument panel display shows the position in
relation to the adjustment set.
Position 0 - one or two people in the front seats.
Position1-fivepeople.
Position2-fivepeople + load in the boot.
Position 3 - driver + maximum permitted load
stowed in the boot.
IMPORTANT Check the alignment of the light beams
each time the weight of the load transported
changes.
FOG LIGHT DIRECTION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the direction
checked and, if necessary, adjusted.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
The dipped headlights are directed for operation in
the country where the vehicle was originally
purchased. In countries where you drive on the
other side of the road, you need to alter the beam
direction by affixing a specially designed self-adhesive
film in order not to dazzle the vehicles travelling in
the opposite direction.

SAFETY
OCCUPANT PROTECTION SYSTEMS
Some of the most important safety equipment of the
vehicle comprise the following protection systems:
seat belts;
SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;
head restraints;
child restraint systems;
front, side airbag (for versions/markets, where
provided).
Read the information given the following pages with
the utmost care.
It is of fundamental importance that the protection
systems are used in the correct way to guarantee the
maximum possible safety level for the driver and
the passengers.
For the description of the head restraint adjustment
see the "Head restraints" paragraph in the "Knowing
your vehicle" chapter.
SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
All vehicle seats are equipped with seat belts with
three anchor points and a retractor.
The retractor mechanism operates locking the belt in
the event of sharp braking or strong deceleration
due to an impact.
This allows the belt strap to slide freely and to adapt
to the body of the occupant.
In the event of an accident, the belt will lock
reducing the risk of impact inside the passenger
compartment and of being projected outside the
vehicle. The driver is responsible for respecting, and
ensuring that all the other occupants of the vehicle
also respect, the local laws in force in relation to the
use of the seat belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before setting off.
The seat belt should be worn keeping the chest
straight and rested against the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the tongue A fig. 113
and insert it into the buckle B, until it clicks into
place.
If the seat belt jams during removal, let it rewind for
a short stretch, then pull it out again without jerking.

FITTING A CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
WITH SEAT BELTS
WARNING
Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an accident
the child restraint system may become loose
and the child may be injured, even fatally.When
fitting a restraint system for newborns or
children, strictly comply with the instructions
provided by the Manufacturer.
WARNING
When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or with
the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from the
vehicle. Do not leave it unsecured inside the
passenger compar tment . In this way, in the case
of sudden braking or an accident , it will not
cause injuries to the occupants.
WARNING
After installing a child restraint system,
do not move the seat : always remove
the child restraint system before making any
adjustment .
WARNING
Always make sure that the diagonal
section of the seat belt does not pass
under the arms or behind the back of the child.
In the event of an accident the seat belt will
not be able to secure the child, with the risk of
injury, including fatal injury.Therefore the
child must always wear the seat belt correctly.
WARNING
The figures are only examples for fitting
purposes. Fit the child restraint system
according to the instructions, which must be
included.
GROUP 0 and 0+
Infants up to 13 kg must be carried with a rearward
facing child restraint system of the type shown in
fig. 120 which, supporting the head, does not induce
stress on the neck in the event of sudden
decelerations.
The rear facing child restraint system is restrained by
the vehicle seat belts, as shown in fig. 120 and it
must restrain the child in turn with its own belts.
