PETROL ENGINES
Use unleaded petrol only with octane
number (R.O.N.) not lower than 95.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalyst leads
to harmful exhaust emissions, thus con-
tributing to air pollution.
IMPORTANT Never use leaded petrol,
even in small amount or in an emergency,
as this would damage the catalyst beyond
repair.
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC
DEVICES INSTALLATION
Electrical and electronic devices installed
after buying the vehicle by after-market
service must carry the following label:
Fiat Auto S.p.A. authorises the installation
of transceiving devices provided that they
are installed by a specialised centre ac-
cording to rules of good engineering prac-
tice in compliance with the manufacturer’s
indications.
IMPORTANT Traffic police may not allow
the vehicle on the road if devices are in-
stalled which imply modifications of the
vehicle features. This may also cause the
warranty to become null and void in re-
lation to faults caused by the change or re-
lated to the change either directly or in-
directly.
Fiat Auto S.p.A. shall not be liable for dam-
age caused by the installation of acces-
sories either not supplied or recom-
mended by Fiat Auto S.p.A. and/or not in-
stalled in compliance with the provided in-
structions.RADIO TRANSMITTERS
AND MOBILE PHONES
Radio transceiver equipment (vehicle mo-
bile phones, CB radios, amateur radio and
similar equipment) shall not be used inside
the vehicle unless a separate aerial is
mounted on the roof.
IMPORTANT The use of similar devices
inside the passenger compartment (with-
out separated aerial) produces radio-fre-
quency electromagnetic fields which, am-
plified by the resonance effects inside the
passenger compartment, may cause mal-
functioning of the electrical systems in-
stalled on the vehicle. This could com-
promise safety in addition to constituting
a potential hazard for the passengers.
In addition, transmission and reception of
these devices may be affected by the
shielding effect of the vehicle body.
As concerns officially EC-approved mobile
phones (GSM, GPRS, UMTS), strictly com-
ply with the instructions for use provided
by the manufacturer of the mobile phone.

FRONT AIRBAGS
The vehicle is provided with front airbags
for the driver and the passenger (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided).
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front airbags on both the driver’s and
passenger’s side (for versions/markets,
where provided) have been designed to
protect the occupants in the event of
head-on crashes of medium-high severity,
by placing the bag between the occupant
and the steering wheel or dashboard.
Non-deployment of the airbags in other
types of collisions (side collisions, rear
shunts, roll-overs, etc.) does not neces-
sarily indicate a system malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the bag
to inflate in the event of a front crash.
The bag will inflate instantaneously placing
itself between the front occupant’s body
and the structures which could cause in-
jury. It will deflate immediately afterwards.
Driver and passenger front airbags (for
versions/markets, where provided) are
not a replacement of, but complementary
to, the seat belts, which you are recom-
mended to always wear as specified by law
in Europe and most non-European coun-
tries.In the event of a collision, a person not
wearing the seat belt may be thrown for-
ward and come into contact with the bag
before it has fully opened. The protection
offered by the bag is reduced in such a
case.
Front airbags may not be activated in the
following situations:
❒in front collisions against highly de-
formable objects which do not affect
the front surface of the vehicle (e.g.
bumper collision against guard rail, etc.);
❒vehicle penetration under other vehi-
cles or protective barriers (e.g. trucks
or guard rails);
they could not provide any additional pro-
tection compared with seat belts, so their
deployment would be improper. In these
cases non-deployment of the airbag does
not necessarily indicate a system malfunc-
tion.Do not apply stickers or oth-
er objects on the steering
wheel, on the dashboard (in passen-
ger side airbag area) and on the seats.
Do not place objects (e.g. cell phones)
on the passenger’s side dashboard be-
cause these could interfere with cor-
rect deployment of the passenger’s
airbag and cause severe injury to ve-
hicle occupants.
WARNING
The front airbags on the driver’s and pas-
senger’s sides are designed and calibrated
to protect the front seat passengers who
wear safety belts.
The volume of the front airbags at max.
inflation fills most of the space between
the steering wheel and the driver and be-
tween the dashboard and the passenger.
The airbags are not deployed in the event
of front collisions of low severity (for
which the withholding action of the seat
belts is sufficient). Safety belts must always
be worn. In the event of a front crash they
ensure the correct positioning of the oc-
cupant.

MAINTENANCE
AND CARE
AIR CLEANER/
POLLEN FILTER
Have the air cleaner or the pollen filter re-
placed by a Fiat Dealership.
BATTERY
The vehicle fits a low-maintenance battery:
no top-ups with distilled water are need-
ed in normal conditions of use.
A periodic check is however required to
make sure that the battery is in efficient
conditions. Have it performed by the Fiat
Dealership or skilled personnel only. REPLACING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a gen-
uine spare battery having the same speci-
fications.
If a battery with different specifications is
fitted, the service intervals given in the
“Scheduled servicing plan” in this section
will no longer be valid.
Follow the battery manufacturer’s in-
structions for maintenance.
The battery fluid is poiso-
nous and corrosive. Avoid
contact with the skin and eyes. Keep
naked flames and sources of sparks
away from the battery: risk of explo-
sion and fire.
WARNING
Running the battery with an
excessively low liquid level
will damage the battery beyond re-
pair and even cause an explosion.
WARNING
Incorrect assembly of electric
and electronic devices may
cause severe damage to your
vehicle. Go to a Fiat Dealer-
ship if, after buying the vehicle, you
want to install accessories (alarms, mo-
bile phone, etc.): they will suggest the
most suitable devices and advise you
if a higher capacity battery needs to be
installed.
