WARNING
90)Don’t put papers and other things that
burn into your ashtrays. If you do,
cigarettes or other smoking materials could
set them on fire, causing damage.
91)Do not touch the heating element or
the cigarette lighter housing, hold the knob
only to prevent burns.
92)Do not allow children to operate or play
with the cigarette lighter as burns may
occur.
93)Do not use any electric appliance that
is not approved by FCA. Doing so could
damage the socket. If you used the
cigarette lighter after damaging the socket,
the cigarette lighter might pop out or fail to
come out after being pushed in.
94)Something is wrong with the cigarette
lighter if it does not pop back out within
approximately 30 seconds of being pushed
in. Pull it out and have the problem
corrected at Fiat Dealership.
95)When the cigarette lighter socket is
used as a power source for an electric
appliance, be sure that the electric
appliance operates at 12 V and has an
electric capacity of 120 W or less. In
addition, long use of the electric appliance
without running the engine may run down
the battery.
96)Keep the lids of storage spaces closed
while driving the vehicle. A lid or the
contents of a storage space could
otherwise cause injuries.
97)The holder should not be used to store
anything heavier than sunglasses. These
objects could drop out.98)Do not drink beverages while driving.
This is distracting and could cause an
accident.
99)Drinks could be spilled by the vibration
and jolts while driving. If the spilt drink is
very hot, you could be burnt.
100)Do not spray water or spill beverages
inside the vehicle. If the switches, wires, or
electrical components become wet, they
could malfunction or cause a vehicle fire. If
you accidentally spill a beverage, wipe up
as much liquid as possible and immediately
consult a Fiat Dealership.
101)Do not put a hanger or any heavy or
pointed object on the coat hook. If the
curtain airbag was activated, any such item
could be propelled away with great force
and could prevent the curtain airbag from
inflating correctly. Hang clothes directly on
the coat hook (without using a hanger).
Make sure there are no heavy or sharp
objects in the pockets of clothes that you
hang on the coat hook.
IMPORTANT
36)When the accessory socket is not in
use, be sure to close the lid, because the
socket might become clogged by foreign
material and be short-circuited.
37)Never leave lighters, canned
carbonated beverage, and spectacles in
the cabin when parking the vehicle in hot
sunshine. The cabin will become extremely
hot, so lighters and other flammable items
may catch fire and unopened drink cans
may rupture. Also, spectacles with plastic
lenses or materials could deform or crack.38)Put out matches and cigarettes before
they are placed in the ashtray.
39)Always close the ashtray. If left open,
other cigarette butts in the ashtray may be
rekindled.
40)Be sure to use a “plug-in” type
accessory operating at 12 V and at 120 W
or less. When using more than one socket
at the same time, make sure that the
electrical accessories are 12 V accessories
and that the total power consumption does
not exceed 120 W.
41)Long use of the electric appliance
without running the engine may run down
the battery.

Warning lamps What it means
Oil pressure warning lamp
This lamp illuminates when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is
put in ON, and the lamp goes off after the engine has started. If it illuminates while the engine is running,
the oil pressure is too low. If the warning lamp illuminates while the engine is running, turn the engine off
and have it inspected.
The oil pressure warning lamp should not be treated as an indication of the engine’s oil level. The oil level
must be checked using the dipstick.
59) 60) 61)
Door-ajar warning lamp
This lamp illuminates when a door is either open or not completely closed.
If the vehicle speed reaches approximately 8 km/h with a door open or incompletely closed, a buzzer
sounds 4 times as a warning.
62)
Washer fluid level warning lamp
This lamp comes on when the washer fluid is running low. If the lamp comes on, replenish the container
with washer fluid. Refer to “Washer fluid” and to “Refill capacities”.
SRS warning lamp
There is a supplemental restraint system (“SRS”) warning lamp on the instrument panel. The system
checks itself every time the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in
ON. The SRS warning lamp will come on for several seconds and then go out. This is normal and
means the system is working properly.
If there is a problem involving one or more of the SRS components, the warning lamp will come on and
stay on.
The SRS warning lamp is shared by the SRS airbag and the seat belt pre-tensioner system.
On vehicles equipped with the ERA-GLONASS, if the ERA-GLONASS system operates, the SRS
warning lamp illuminates.

57)If the lamp illuminates while the engine
is running, avoid driving at high speeds and
have the system inspected by a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible. Accelerator
pedal and brake pedal response may be
negatively influenced under these
conditions.
58)If it illuminates while the engine is
running, there is a problem in the charging
system. Immediately park your vehicle in a
safe place and we recommend you to have
it checked.
59)If this lamp illuminates when the engine
oil level is not low, have it inspected.
60)This warning lamp does not indicate
the amount of oil in the crankcase. This
must be determined by checking the oil
level on the dipstick, while the engine is
switched off.
61)If you continue driving with low engine
oil level or with this warning lamp
illuminated, engine seizure may occur.
62)Before moving your vehicle, check that
the warning lamp is OFF.
63)If any of the following conditions occur,
there may be a problem with the SRS
airbags and/or seat belt pre-tensioners,
and they may not function properly in a
collision or may suddenly activate without a
collision: 1 – Even when the ignition switch
or the operation mode is in ON, the SRS
warning lamp does not come on or it
remains on. 2 – The SRS warning lamp
comes on while driving.
64)The SRS airbags and seat belt
pre-tensioners are designed to help reduce
the risk of serious injury or death in certain
collisions. If either of the above conditions
occurs, immediately have your vehicle
checked by a Fiat Dealership.65)Any of the following indicates that the
ABS is not functioning and only the
standard brake system is working. (The
standard brake system is functioning
normally.) If this happens, take your vehicle
to a Fiat Dealership.
66)When the ignition switch is turned to
the “ON” position or the operation mode is
put in ON, the warning lamp does not
come on or it remains on and does not go
off . The warning lamp comes on while
driving.

If the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position or the operation mode is
put in ON while a seat belt is not
fastened, the warning lamp comes on
for approximately 30 seconds to remind
the rear passenger to fasten the seat
belt.
If the vehicle is driven with the seat belt
still unfastened, the warning lamps
come on for approximately another
30 seconds. (This illumination happens
only the first time the vehicle starts
moving with the seat belt still
unfastened.)
The warning lamps go off when the
seat belt is fastened.
NOTE The warning lamp comes on
even if no one is sitting on the rear
seats.
NOTE If a seat belt is unfastened while
the vehicle is being driven, the tone
sounds for approximately 1 second and
the warning lamp comes on for
approximately 30 seconds. At the same
time, the warning lamp for the seat
where the seat belt is not fastened
comes on.
NOTE If the seat belts are initially
fastened but a seat belt is unfastened
while the vehicle is stationary and the
vehicle is then driven with the seat belt
still unfastened, the warning lamp
comes on again for approximately
30 seconds.Adjustable seat belt anchor (front
seats of Club cab and Double cab)
The seat belt anchor height can be
adjusted. To move the anchor, pull the
lock knob (1) and slide the anchor to
the desired position. Release the lock
knob to lock the anchor into position.
136)
IMPORTANT
72)Do not install any accessory or sticker
that makes the lamp difficult to see.
WARNING
136)When adjusting the seat belt anchor,
set it at a position that is sufficiently high so
that the belt will make full contact with your
shoulder but will not touch your neck.
PRETENSIONERS
AND FORCE LIMITER
SYSTEM
(where provided)
137) 138) 139) 140) 141)
73) 74) 75) 76)
The front seat belts each have a
pre-tensioner system and force limiter
system (Single cab and Club cab).
The front seat belts and the rear outer
seat belts each have a pre-tensioner
system and force limiter system (Double
cab).
Pretensioner system
When the ignition switch or the
operation mode is under the following
conditions, if there is a frontal impact or
a side impact (vehicles equipped with
SRS side airbags and SRS curtain
airbags) severe enough to injure the
driver and/or front passenger, or when
a rollover or overturning of the vehicle is
detected (if so equipped), the
pretensioner system will retract their
respective seat belts instantaneously,
thus maximizing the seat belt’s
effectiveness.
Except for vehicles equipped with the
keyless operation system: the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START”
position.
Vehicles equipped with the keyless
operation system: the operation mode
is in ON.

Page 116 of 316
NOTE The pretensioner seat belts will
be activated if the vehicle suffers a
severe impact, even if the seat belts are
not worn.
NOTE The pretensioner seat belts are
designed to work only once. After the
pretensioner seat belts have been
activated, we recommend you to have
them replaced by a Fiat Dealership.
SRS warning lamp
This warning lamp is shared by the SRS
airbags and the pre-tensioner seat
belts. Refer to “SRS warning lamp”.
Force limiter system
In the event of a collision, each force
limiter system will effectively absorb the
load applied to the seat belt so as to
minimize the impact to the passenger.
WARNING
137)Each seat belt must be used by only
one person. Never travel with a child sitting
on the passenger's lap and a single belt to
protect them both. In general, do not place
any objects between the person and the
belt.
138)The pretensioner may be used only
once. After it is triggered, have it replaced
at a Fiat Dealership.139)Removing or otherwise tampering
with pretensioner and seat belt
components is strictly prohibited. Any
intervention on these components must be
performed by qualified and authorised
technicians. Always go to a Fiat Dealership.
140)For maximum safety, keep the
backrest upright, lean back into it and
make sure the seat belt fits closely across
your chest and pelvis. Always fasten the
seat belts for both the front and rear seats!
Travelling without wearing seat belts will
increase the risk of serious injury and even
death in the event of an accident.
141)If the belt has been subjected to high
levels of stress, for example after an
accident, it should be changed completely
together with the attachments, attachment
fixing screws and the pretensioner. In fact,
even if the belt has no visible defects, it
may have lost its resilience.
IMPORTANT
73)To obtain the best results from your
pretensioner seat belt, make sure you have
adjusted your seat correctly and wear your
seat belt properly.
74)Installation of audio equipment or
repairs in the vicinity of the pretensioner
seat belts or floor console must be
performed in line with FCA Italy S.p.A.
guidelines. It is important to do so because
the work could affect the pretensioner
systems.75)If you need to scrap the vehicle, please
consult a Fiat Dealership. It is important to
do so because unexpected activation of
the pretensioner seat belts could cause
injuries.
76)Operations which lead to impacts,
vibrations or localised heating (over 100°C
for a maximum of six hours) in the area
around the pretensioners may damage or
accidentally deploy them. Contact a Fiat
Dealership should intervention be
necessary on these components.

CHILD RESTRAINT
When transporting children in your
vehicle, some type of child restraint
system should always be used
according to the size of the child. This
is required by law in most countries.
The regulations concerning driving with
children in the front seat may differ from
country to country. You are advised to
comply with the relevant regulations.
NOTE In order to be properly installed
on the vehicle, some universal child
seats require the use of an accessory
(base) sold separately by the
manufacturer of the child seat.
Therefore FCA recommends to check
the suitability of the desired child seat
by installing it on the vehicle before
purchasing it.

Caution for installing the child
restraint on vehicle with front
passenger airbag
The label shown here is attached on
vehicles with front passenger airbag.
151) 152) 153) 154) 155) 156) 157) 158) 159) 160)
NOTE The labels may be in different
positions depending on the vehicle
model.
Use rearward facing child restraints in
the rear seat or turn off the front
passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch
(Club cab and Double cab, refer to “To
turn an airbag off”).Infants and small children
When transporting infants and small
children in your vehicle, follow the
instruction given below.
Instructions:
For small infants, an infant carrier
should be used. For small children
whose height when seated allows the
shoulder belt to lie in contact with the
204AHA105668
205AHA100588
206AHA100591
207AA0059891

face or the throat, a child seat should
be used.
Page 118 of 316
The child restraint system should be
appropriate for your child’s weight and
height and properly fit the vehicle. For a
higher degree of safety THE CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM SHOULD BE
INSTALLED IN THE REAR SEAT.
Before purchasing a child restraint
system, try installing it in the seat to
make sure there is a good fit. Because
of the location of the seat belt buckles
and the shape of the seat cushion, it
may be difficult to securely install some
manufacturer’s child restraint systems.
If the child restraint system can be
pulled forward or to either side easily on
the seat cushion after the seat belt has
been tightened, choose another
manufacturer’s child restraint system.
161) 162) 163)
NOTE Depending on the seating
position in the vehicle and the child
restraint system that you have, the child
restraint can be attached using one of
the following two locations:
Using the lower anchorage in the
rear seat ONLY if the child restraint has
ISOFIX mountings (Double Cab).
Using the seat belt.
Older children
Children who have outgrown the child
restraint system should be seated in the
rear seat and wear combination lap
shoulder belt. The lap portion of the belt
should be snug and positioned low on
the abdomen so that it is below the top
of the hip-bone. Otherwise, the belt
could intrude into the child’s abdomen
during an accident and cause injury.
WARNING
142)When installing a child restraint
system, refer to the instructions provided
by the manufacturer of the restraint
system. Failure to do so can result in
severe or fatal injury to your child.
143)Follow the instructions for positioning,
fitting and removing which the
manufacturer must supply together with
the child restraint system.
144)It is recommended to fit the child
restraint system according to the
instructions, which must be included.145)Do not place a rearward facing cradle
seat on the front seat if the passenger side
airbag is enabled. Deployment of the
airbag in an accident could cause fatal
injuries to the child regardless of the
severity of the impact. It is advisable to
always carry children in a child restraint
system on the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of a
collision. If you need to carry a child on the
front passenger seat in a rearward facing
cradle seat, the passenger side airbags
(front and side bags for chest/ pelvis
protection, for versions/markets, where
provided) must be deactivated using the
setup menu. It is important to check the
dedicated LED on button on the instrument
panel to make sure that they are actually
deactivated. The passenger seat must also
be positioned back as far as possible in
order to avoid the child restraint system
from coming into contact with the
dashboard.
146)Fit the child restraint system only
when the vehicle is stationary.
147)When possible, put children in the
rear seat. Accident statistics indicate that
children of all sizes and ages are safer
when properly restrained in the rear seat
rather than in the front seat (Club cab and
Double cab).
148)Holding a child in your arms is no
substitute for a restraint system. Failure to
use a proper restraint system can result in
severe or fatal injury to your child.
149)Each child restraint device or fixing is
to be used only by one child.
116
SAFETY
Page 119 of 316
150)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.
151)On the sun visor there is a label with
suitable symbols reminding the user that it
is compulsory to deactivate the airbag if a
rearward facing child restraint system is
fitted. Always comply with the instructions
on the passenger side sun visor (see the
"Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) -
Airbag" paragraph).
152)Extreme Hazard! NEVER use a
rearward facing child restraint on a seat
protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of
it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the
CHILD can occur.
153)When attaching a child restraint
system to the rear seat, prevent the front
seat from touching the child restraint
system. Otherwise, the child could be
seriously injured in the event of hard
braking or a collision (Club cab and Double
cab).
154)On vehicles with an airbag for the
front passenger, a REARWARD FACING
CHILD RESTRAINT must NOT be used in
the front passenger seat as it places an
infant too close to the passenger airbag.
The force of an inflating airbag could kill or
cause serious injuries to the child. A
rearward facing child restraint must only be
used in the rear seat. (Club cab and
Double cab).155)Do not move the front or rear seat if a
child is seated on it or on the dedicated
child restraint system.
156)A FORWARD FACING CHILD
RESTRAINT should be used in the rear
seat whenever possible; if it must be used
in the front passenger seat, adjust the seat
to the most rearward position. Failure to do
so could kill or cause serious injuries to the
child.
157)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.
158)Do not use the same lower
anchorage to install more than one child
restraint system.
159)If a Universal ISOFIX child seat system
is not fixed to all three anchorages, it will
not be able to protect the child correctly. In
a crash, the child could be seriously or
fatally injured.
160)Fit the child restraint system when the
car is stationary. The child restraint system
is correctly fixed to the brackets when you
hear the click. Follow the instructions for
assembly, disassembly and positioning that
the Manufacturer must supply with the
child restraint system.
161)After installation, push and pull the
child restraint system back and forth, and
side to side, to see that it is positively
secured. If the child restraint system is not
installed securely, it may cause injury to the
child or other occupants in the case of
accident or sudden stops.162)When the child restraint system is not
in use, keep your child restraint system
secured with the seat belt or remove it
from the vehicle in order to prevent it from
being thrown around inside the vehicle
during an accident.
163)After installing a child restraint system,
do not move the seat: always remove the
child restraint system before making any
adjustment.
