wiper is submitted to excessive effort that results in motor protection cutting in and wiper
operation inhibition for few seconds as a consequence. If operation is not restored contact Fiat

FRONT AIR BAGS
The car is fitted with front airbags for driver and
passenger and front side airbags (side bag/window bag
as optional).
FRONT AIRBAGS
Front airbags (driver and passenger) have been
designed to protect the occupants in the event of
head-on crashes of medium-high severity, by placing
the cushion between the occupant and the steering
wheel or dashboard.
Front airbags are designed to protect car’s occupants
in front crashes and therefore non-activation in other
types of collisions (side collisions, rear shunts, roll-
overs, etc.) is not a system malfunction.
In case of crash, an electronic control unit, when
required, triggers the inflation of the cushion according
to the severity of the collision.
The cushion immediately inflates, placing itself as a
protection between the body of the front occupants
and the structure that could cause injuries.
Immediately after, the cushion deflates.The front airbag (driver and passenger) 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.
In case of crash, a person not wearing the seat belt
moves forward and may come into contact with the
cushion while it is still inflating. Under this
circumstance the protection offered by the airbag is
reduced.
Front airbags may not activate in the following
situations:
❒in collisions against highly deformable objects not
affecting the vehicle front surface(e.g. bumper
collision against guard rail);
❒car wedging under other vehicles or protective
barriers (for example under a truck or guard rail);
as it offers no additional protection compared with the
seat belts, consequently, it would be pointless.
Therefore, failure to come into action in the above
circumstances does not mean that the system is not
working properly.
WARNINGDo not apply stickers or other objects to the steering wheel or to the airbag cover
on the passenger’s side or on the side roof lining. Never apply objects on the
dashboard on passenger side since they could interfere with proper passenger’s
airbag inflation or cause injuries.

Driver’s and passenger’s airbags have been designed and calibrated to
improve the protection of a person wearing seat belts.
At their maximum inflation, their volume fills most of the space between
the steering wheel and the driver and between the dashboard and the
passenger.
In minor front crashes (for which the restraining action of the seat belts
is sufficient), the airbags will not deploy. Also in this case it is of vital
importance to wear the seat belts since in case of front crash they
guarantee proper positioning of the car occupant.
DRIVER’S FRONT AIRBAG
It consists of an instant-inflating cushion contained in a special recess in
the centre of the steering wheel.
PASSENGER’S FRONT AIRBAG
It consists of an instant-inflating cushion contained in a special recess in
the dashboard; its volume is bigger than the driver’s one.

WARNINGSERIOUS DANGER: The car is fitted with airbag on passenger’s side. Never place
cradle child’s seats on the front passenger seat of cars fitted with passenger’s
airbag since the airbag activation could cause serious injuries, even mortal. In the
case of need, always deactivate the passenger’s airbag when a child’s seat is placed
on the front seat. The front passenger seat shall be adjusted in the most backward
position to prevent any contact between child’s seat and dashboard. Even if not
compulsory by law, you are recommended to reactivate the airbag immediately as
soon as child transport is no longer necessary.
