To manually deactivate the
passenger’s front airbag and
the Side Bag (where provided), refer
to paragraph “Multifunctional re-
configurable display” in section
“Dashboard and controls”.
WARNING
MANUAL DEACTIVATION OF
FRONT AIRBAG AND SIDE
BAGON PASSENGER’S SIDE
(where provided)
Whenever a child needs to be carried on
the front seat, the passenger’s front airbag
and the Side Bag (where provided) must
be deactivated.
The warning light
“on the instrument
panel stays on steadily until the passenger’s
front airbag and the Side Bag (where pro-
vided) are re-activated.
SIDE AIR BAGS
(where fitted)
(Side bag - Window
bag)
SIDE BAGS fig. 19
They are formed of an instantaneously-in-
flating cushion housed in the back rest of
front seats and their task is to increase
protection of the occupants in the event
of a side crash of medium-high severity.
Covers for Side bag seats are available at
Lineaccessori Fiat.
The side air bag is not a replacement of
but complementary to the use of belts,
which should always be worn, as specified
by law in Europe and most non European
countries.
IMPORTANT In the event of side crash,
you can obtain the best protection by the
system keeping a correct position on the
seat, allowing thus a correct window bag
unfolding.
Do not cover the back rest of
front seats with trims or cov-
ers there are not set for the use of side
bags.
WARNING
WINDOW BAGS fig. 20
They are “curtain” cushions located be-
hind the side coverings of the roof and
covered by proper finishings, studied for
the head protection to offer the best pro-
tection to the front and rear occupants
in the event of side crash, thanks to the
wide cushion inflation surface.

If the car has been stolen or
an attempt to steal it has
been made, if it has been subjected to
vandals or floods, have the air bag
system checked by Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
Remember that with the key
engaged and in the MAR po-
sition, even with the engine not run-
ning, the air bags may be triggered on
a stationary vehicle if it is bumped by
another moving car. Therefore, nev-
er seat children on the front seat even
when the vehicle is stationary. On the
other hand remember that if the key
is at STOP, no safety system (air bags
or pretensioners) is triggered in the
event of an impact; in these case, fail-
ure to come into action cannot be
considered as a sign that the system
is not working properly.
WARNING
Never travel with objects on
your lap, in front of your
chest or with a pipe, pencil, etc. be-
tween your lips; injury may result in
the event of the air bag being trig-
gered.
WARNING
When the ignition key is
turned to the MAR position,
the warning light “(with passenger’s
front air bag deactivation (with pas-
senger air bag active) turns on and
flashes for few seconds to remind that
passenger’s air bag will be deployed
in a crash, after which it should go off.
WARNING
Do not wash the seat back
rest with pressurised water
or steam (by hand or at automatic
seat washing stations).
WARNING
The front air bag is triggered
for shocks greater in magni-
tude than the pretensioners. For im-
pacts between these two thresholds,
it is therefore normal that only the
pretensioners are triggered.
WARNING
Do not hook rigid objects to
the coat hooks and to the
support handles.
WARNING
The air bag does not substi-
tute the seat belts, but only
increases their effectiveness. More-
over, since the front air bags do not
come into operation in the event of
front impact at low speed, side colli-
sions, bumps from behind or over-
turning, in these circumstances the
occupants would only be protected
by the seat belts which must therefore
always be fastened.
