For optimum protection in the event of
a crash, all passengers must be seated and
wearing adequate restraint systems.
This is even more important for children.
This prescription is compulsory in all EUcountries pursuant to Directive 2003/20/EC.Compared with an adult, a child’s head is
larger and heavier in proportion to his/her
body and the child’s muscular and bone
structures are not fully developed. For this
reason, they require restraint systems
which are different from those used by
adults to protect them in the event of an
accident. The result of research in relation to the
best protection for children is illustrated
in European Regulation ECE-R44, which
divides the restraint systems into five
groups in addition to making their use
compulsory:
Group 0 up to 10 kg
Group 0+ up to 13 kg
Group 1 9-18 kg
Group 2 15-25 kg
Group 3 22-36 kg
As you can see, the groups overlap part-
ly and, in fact, there are devices on sale
that cover more than one weight group.CARRYING CHILDREN SAFELY
All child restraint devices must bear the
certification data, together with the con-
trol brand, on a solidly fixed to the seat la-
bel which must never be removed.
When over 1.50 m in height, from the
point of view of restraint systems, children
are considered as adults and have to wear
the standard seat belts.
Lineaccessori Fiat has child seats for each
weight group. These devices are recom-
mended, having been specifically designed
for Fiat cars.

GROUP 2
Starting from 15 kg to 25 kg in weight, chil-
dren may be restrained directly by the car
belts fig. 10. The only function of the seat
is to position the child correctly in rela-
tion to the belts, so that the diagonal part
adheres to the chest and not to the neck
and that the horizontal part fits over the
child’s hips and not the abdomen.
The diagram is only an indi-
cation. For assembly, refer to
the instructions supplied with the
child seat.
WARNING
Some child restraint systems
for weight groups 0 and 1
have a rear attachment and seat belts
for securing the child. Due to their
weight, they may be dangerous if in-
correctly mounted (e.g. if fastened to
the car seat belts with a cushion in
between). Follow the assembly in-
structions carefully.
WARNING
GROUP 3
For children between 22 kg and 36 kg,
there are boosters allowing the seatbelt
to fit correctly.
Fig. 11shows proper child seat posi-
tioning on the rear seat.
Children over 1.50 m in height can wear
seat belts like adults.fig. 11

SUITABILITY OF PASSENGER SEATS FOR CHILD SEAT USE
The car complies with the new European Directive 2000/3/EC which governs the
arrangement possibilities for child seats on the various seats of the car as shown in
the following table:Below is a summary of the safety
rules to be followed when carrying
children:
1) The recommended position for in-
stalling child seats is on the rear seat, as
it is the most protected area in the event
of a crash.
2) When disengaging the passenger
airbag, always check the amber warning
light on the instrument panel is perma-
nently on to make sure that the airbag has
actually been deactivated.
3) Carefully follow the instructions that
came with the child seat, which the man-
ufacturer must supply by law. Keep the in-
structions in the car along with the other
documents and this handbook. Do not use
second hand child seats without instruc-
tions.
4) Always check the seat belt is well fas-
tened by pulling on it.
5) Only one child is to be strapped into
each retaining system; never carry two
children using one child seat.
6) Always check the seat belts do not
rest on the child’s neck.
7) While travelling, do not let the child
sit incorrectly or release the belts.
8) Never carry children on your lap, even
newborns. No one, however strong, can
hold a child in the event of an accident.
9) In the event of an accident, replace the
child seat with a new one.

Do not place a child seat
facing backwards on the
front seat if the passenger side airbag
is enabled. Deployment of the airbag
in an accident could cause fatal in-
juries to the baby regardless of the
severity of the collision. It is advisable
to always carry children in a child seat
on the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of a
collision.
WARNING
“UNIVERSAL ISOFIX”
CHILD RESTRAINT
ASSEMBLY SETUPThe car is provisioned for a Universal
Isofix child restraint, a new European stan-
dardised system for carrying children safe-
ly. An example of such a seat is shown in
fig. 12. The Universal Isofix child seat cov-
ers weight group 1.
Due to its different attachment system,
the Universal Isofix child seat must be an-
chored to the special low metal rings A-
fig. 13, located between the backrest and
rear cushion. The upper belt (provided
with the child seat) must be then secured
to ring B-fig. 14located on the back of
the backrest at child seat level. It is pos-
sible to have a mixed assembly of the tra-
ditional child seats and the Universal Isofix
ones.
Remember that, in the case of Universal
Isofix child seats, you can use all those
seats bearing the marking ECE R44/03
Universal Isofix.

The Universal Isofix “Duo Plus” child seat
and the special “G 0/1” seat are available
from Lineaccessori Fiat.
For any further details on installation/use,
refer to the instruction manual for the
child seat.

SEVERE DANGER:When an
active passenger airbag is fit-
ted, DO NOT install rear-
ward facing child restraints
on the front seat. Deploy-
ment of the airbag in an ac-
cident could cause fatal injuries to the
child regardless of the severity of the
impact. Therefore, always deactivate
the passenger airbag when a rear-
ward facing child restraint system is
installed on the front passenger seat.
The front passenger seat must also be
positioned back as far as possible in
order to avoid the child restraint sys-
tem from coming into contact with
the dashboard. Immediately reacti-
vate the passenger airbag as soon as
the child restraint system has been re-
moved.

Never travel with objects on
your lap, in front of your
chest or with a pipe, pencil, etc. be-
tween your lips; serious injury may re-
sult in the event of the airbag being
triggered.
WARNING
The airbags may also be de-
ployed when the car is not
moving, if the key is in the ignition and
turned to MAR-ON or when the en-
gine is off, if the car is hit by another
moving vehicle. Therefore, even if the
car is stationary,when an active pas-
senger airbag is fitted, DO NOT install
on the passenger seat child restraint
systems to be fitted rearward facing
on the front seat. Deployment of the
airbag following an impact could
cause fatal injuries to the child. There-
fore, always release the passenger
airbag when a rearward facing child
restraint is installed on the passenger
front seat. The front passenger seat
must also be positioned back as far as
possible in order to avoid the child re-
straint from coming into contact with
the dashboard. Immediately reacti-
vate the passenger airbag as soon as
the child restraint system has been re-
moved. Also remember that, if the key
is turned to STOP, none of the safe-
ty devices (airbags or pretensioners)
will be deployed in the event of colli-
sion. Non-deployment of these de-
vices does not indicate a system mal-
function.
WARNING
Always drive with your hands
on the steering wheel rim so
that the airbag can inflate freely if
needed. Do not drive with your body
bent forward. Keep your back straight
against the backrest.
WARNING
If the vehicle has been sub-
ject to theft or a theft at-
tempt, or if it has been affected by
vandalism or flooding, have the airbag
system checked at a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
When the ignition key is
turned to MAR, the warning
light (with passenger’s front airbag
activated) turns on and flashes for
a few seconds to remind you that the
passenger’s air bag will be deployed
in a crash, after which it should go off.
