GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE
SEAT BELTS
The driver is responsible for respecting, and ensuring that
all the other occupants of the car also respect, the local
laws in force in relation to the use of the seat belts. Al-
ways fasten the seat belts before setting off.
Seat belts must also be worn by expectant mothers: the
risk of injury in the event of an accident is greatly reduced
for them and the unborn child if they are wearing a seat
belt.
Of course, mothers-to-be must position the lower part of
the belt very low down so that it passes over the pelvis
and under the abdomen fig. 132.KNOWING

The belt must not be twisted. The upper
part must cross the shoulder and the chest
diagonally. The lower part must adhere to the hips
fig. 133, not to the abdomen. Do not use devices
(clips, clamps, etc.) that prevent the belts from be-
ing snug to the passenger’s body.
WARNING
For maximum protection, keep the back-
rest straight: lean back into the backrest
and keep the seat belt fairly tight across the chest
and hips. Always fasten the seat belts on both the
front and the rear seats! Travelling without seat
belts fastened increases the risk of serious injuries
or even death in the event of a crash.

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 recommended, having been specifically
designed for Fiat cars.CARRYING CHILDREN
SAFELY
For optimum protection in the event of a crash, all pas-
sengers must be seated and wearing adequate restraint
systems.
This is even more important for children.
This prescription is compulsory in all EU countries pur-
suant to Directive 2003/20/EC.
Compared with an adult, a child’s head is larger and heav-
ier in proportion to his/her body and the child’s muscu-
lar and bone structures are not fully developed. For this
reason, they require restraint systems which are differ-
ent 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 Reg-
ulation ECE-R44, which divides the restraint systems in-
to five groups in addition to making their use compulso-
ry:
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 partly and, in fact, there
are devices on sale that cover more than one weight group.
All child restraint devices must bear the certification da-
ta, together with the control brand, on a solidly fixed to
the seat label which must never be removed.

Babies up to 13 kg must be carried facing backwards
on a cradle seat, which, by supporting the head, does
not induce stress on the neck in the event of sharp de-
celeration.
The cradle is held in place by the car seat belts fig. 135 and
in turn it must restrain the child with its own belts.

Do not place a cradle seat facing back-
wards on the front seat if the passenger
side airbag is enabled. Deployment of the airbag
in an accident could cause fatal injuries to the ba-
by regardless of the severity of the collision. It is
advisable to always carry children in dedicated
child seats on the rear seat, which is the most pro-
tected position in the event of an accident.
WARNING
SERIOUS HAZARD Should it be ab-
solutely necessary to carry a child on the
front seat in a backwards-facing cradle
seat, the passenger’s front and side
airbags should be deactivated through the
setup menu. Deactivation can be verified by
checking the “warning light on the instrument
panel. Also, the passenger seat should be as far
back as possible to avoid contact between the
child seat and the dashboard.
WARNING
The diagrams are indicative and provid-
ed for assembly purposes only. 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 incorrectly
mounted (e.g. if fastened to the car seat belts with
a cushion in between). Follow the assembly in-
structions carefully.

Below is a summary of the safety rules to be
followed when carrying children:
1) The recommended position for installing 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 per-
manently on to make sure that the airbag has actually been
deactivated.
3) Carefully follow the instructions that came with the
child seat, which the manufacturer must supply by law.
Keep the instructions in the car along with the other doc-
uments and this handbook. Do not use second hand child
seats without instructions.
4) Always check the seat belt is well fastened by pulling
on it.
5) Only one child is to be strapped into each retaining sys-
tem; 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.KNOWING

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 injuries to the baby re-
gardless of the severity of the collision. It is ad-
visable to always carry children in a child seat on
the rear seat, which is the most protected posi-
tion in the event of a collision.
WARNING
“UNIVERSAL ISOFIX”
CHILD RESTRAINT ASSEMBLY
SETUP
The car is provisioned for a Universal Isofix child restraint,
a new European standardised system for carrying children
safely. An example of such a seat is shown in fig. 139. The
Universal Isofix child seat covers weight group 1.
Due to its different attachment system, the Universal Isofix
child seat must be anchored to the special low metal rings
A-fig. 140, located between the backrest and rear cushion.
The upper belt (provided with the child seat) must be then
secured to ring B-fig. 141 located on the back of the back-
rest at child seat level. It is possible to have a mixed as-
sembly of the traditional 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.

WARNING: Do not put child seats facing
backwards on the front seat if the pas-
senger’s airbag is enabled (ON). Deploy-
ment of the airbag in an accident could
cause fatal injuries to the baby. Should it
be absolutely necessary to place a child seat on
the front seat, always deactivate the passenger
airbag. Also, the passenger seat should be as far
back as possible to avoid contact between the
child seat and the dashboard. Although this is not
mandatory by law, the airbag should be immedi-
ately reactivated when children are no longer car-
ried to ensure better protection for adults.

If the key is turned to MAR, even if the en-
gine is switched off, airbags may be de-
ployed when the car is stationary and hit by an-
other vehicle. For this reason, young children must
never sit on the front seat, even if the car is not
moving. We remind you that if the key is turned
to the STOP position, no safety device (airbag or
pretensioner) activates following a collision. Non-
deployment in such cases should not be consid-
ered as the sign of a malfunction.
WARNING
If the car has been stolen or has been the
subject of an attempted theft, if it has
been vandalised or flooded, have the airbag sys-
tem checked at a Fiar Dealership.
WARNING
When the ignition key is turned to MAR,
the warning light “turns on (with front
airbag on passenger’s side enabled) and blinks for
a few seconds to remind you that the passenger
airbag will activate in the event of a collision. Then
it turns off.
WARNING
Do not pressure wash the seats with steam
or water (either by hand or at automatic
seat washing stations).
WARNING
The front airbags deploy in the event of
more severe collisions than those required
for deploying the pretensioners. For collisions in
the range between the two activation thresholds,
pretensioner activation alone is normal.
WARNING
Do not hook rigid objects to clothes hang-
ers and support handles.
WARNING
The airbag does not replace seat belts; it
increases their effectiveness. Furthermore,
since front airbags are not deployed in low speed
collisions, side-on collisions, rear-end shunts or
roll-overs, the passengers are protected only by
the seat belts which must therefore be fastened
at all times.

PLASTIC PARTS
It is advisable to clean interior plastic parts with a damp
cloth and a solution of water and non-abrasive mild soap.
To remove grease and tough stains, use products designed
specifically for cleaning plastics. These have no solvents
and have been designed so that they do not alter the ap-
pearance and colour of the components.
IMPORTANT Never use spirits or petroleum to clean the
instrument panel.
REAL LEATHER STEERING WHEEL/GEAR
LEVER KNOB
These components must be cleaned with mild soap and
water only.
Never use spirits and/or alcohol-based products.
Before using off-the-shelf products designed for cleaning
vehicle interiors, make sure that they do not contain spir-
its and/or alcohol-based substances.
If window cleaner accidentally drips onto the steering
wheel or gear lever knob, wipe away immediately and then
wash the affected area with mild soap and water.
IMPORTANT When arranging a steering wheel locking
device, be careful not to damage the leather upholstery. SEATS AND FABRIC PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner. It is
advisable to use a damp brush on velvet upholstery.
Wipe the seats with a sponge soaked in a solution of mild
detergent and water.KNOWING

The fabric upholstery of your car is designed
to withstand normal wear and tear for
a long time. Some precautions are needed
though. Avoid prolonged and/or excessive rubbing
against clothing accessories such as metal buckles
and Velcro strips which, by applying a high pressure
on the fabric in a small area, could cause some
threads to break, thereby damaging the upholstery.
