REAR VIEW MIRRORSINTERIOR MIRROR fig. 37
The mirror is fitted with a safety device that causes
its release in the event of a violent impact with the
passenger.
The mirror can be adjusted to two different positions
(normal or antiglare) by means of the lever A.BABY SURVEILLANCE MIRROR fig. 38
(for versions/markets where provided)
The surveillance mirror gives the driver and passenger an
overview of rear seats, to keep under control all passen-
gers (children) on the rear seats.
The mirror must be fasted to the windscreen using the rel-
evant sucker. Warning: to preserve visibility, the surveil-
lance mirror can only be positioned according to fig. 38,
over a parallel line to the roof trim, at about 11 cm. Do not
place the mirror on printed areas, as it could easily detach.
This is not a toy and should be kept far from children’s
reach.

CURRENT SOCKET fig. 61
(for versions/markets where provided)
The current socked is located on the central tunnel
and is powered with ignition key on MAR.
To use the socket, open the protection lid A.
Correct operation is ensured only if the connected ac-
cessories are provided with approved standard plugs, pre-
sent on all Lineaccessori Fiat components.
IMPORTANT With the engine off and ignition key in MAR,
the extended use (for instance for over one hour) of ac-
cessories which drain much current may reduce battery
efficiency and therefore cause misfiring.

In case of fault to the electrical device
fig. 65 and 66
Take the wrench E in the tool box (inside the boot)
and manually open/close the sun-roof fitting the wrench
in the motor seat. To reach the seat, remove the
pressure-fit cover F located on the central roof cross
member (dividing the sun-roof mobile section from the
fixed one).
Improper use of the sun-roof can be dan-
gerous. Before and during its operation en-
sure that any passengers are not at risk from the
moving roof either by personal objects getting
caught in the mechanism or by being injured by
it directly.
WARNING
Always remove the ignition key when you
get out of the car to prevent the sun-roof
from being operated accidentally and constitut-
ing a danger to the people still on board.

and make sure the seat belts are at the front of the back-
rest.
Upon demand the car can be fitted with split rear seat.The boot extension possibilities offered by the split seat

ed as described above;
❒
partial extension with left or right side of the seat tilt-
ed and place only for one person on the rear seat.
IMPORTANT If in a rather heavy load is being carried in
the boot and you are travelling at night, check and adjust
the main beam headlights aiming (see “Headlights” in this
section).fig. 76

RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND MOBILE
PHONES
Radio transceivers (e.g.: CB radio systems and the like)
should not be used inside the vehicle unless a separate
aerial is mounted on the roof.
IMPORTANT The use of similar devices inside the pas-
senger compartment (without an external aerial) may, in
addition to potential damage to the health of the passen-
gers, cause malfunctions in the vehicle electronic systems,
compromising the safety of the vehicle.
In addition, transmission and reception of these devices
may be affected by the shielding effect of the vehicle body.
As far as the use of EC-approved mobile phones is con-
cerned (GSM, GPRS, UMTS), follow the instructions for
use provided by the mobile phone manufacturer.
AT THE FILLING STATIONPETROL ENGINES
Use only unleaded petrol.
To avoid mistakes, the diameter of the fuel filler is too
small to introduce the bit of a leaded petrol pumps.
The petrol octane rating (RON) must not be lower than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalytic converter leads
to harmful exhaust emissions, thus contributing to air
pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol, even in small
amount or in an emergency, as this would damage the cat-
alytic converter beyond repair.

AIR BAGThe car is fitted with front air bags (for versions/markets
where provided) for the driver and the passenger and front
side bags (side bag – window bag).
FRONT AIR BAGS
The front driver/passenger air bags 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 air bags are designed to protect car’s passengers in
head-on crashes and therefore non-activation in other
types of collisions (side collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs,
etc.) is not a system malfunction.
An electronic control unit will make the bag inflate in the
event of a front crash.
The bag will inflate instantaneously placing itself between
the front passengers’ body and the structures which could
cause injury. It will deflate immediately afterwards.
Driver and passenger front airbags are not a replacement
of but complementary to the seat belts, which should al-
ways be worn, as specified by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
In the event of an impact, those not wearing a seat belt will
move forward and come into contact with the bag which
is still inflating. The protection offered by the air bag cush-
ion is reduced in such a case.Front air bags may not be activated in the following situ-
ations:
❒
in collisions against highly deformable objects not af-
fecting the car front surface (e.g. bumper collision against
guard rail, etc.);
❒
car wedging under other vehicles or protective barri-
ers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they could not provide any additional protection compared
with seat belts, so their activation would be improper.
Therefore, failure to come into action in the above cir-
cumstances does not mean that the system is not work-
ing properly.
Do not apply stickers or other objects to
the steering wheel, to the passenger’s side
air bag cover side or on the side roof lining. Nev-
er put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the pas-
senger’s side dashboard since they could interfere
with proper air bag inflation and also cause seri-
ous injury to the passengers.
