SAFETY
SEAT BELTSUSING THE SEAT BELTS
Wear the belt keeping the torso upright and rested
against the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the tongue A fig. 97and
insert it into the buckle B, until the locking click is
heard.
If the seat belt jams, let it rewind for a short stretch,
then pull it out again without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press button C. Guide the
seat belt with your hand while it is rewinding, to
prevent it from twisting.
WARNING
Never press button C fig. 97 when
travelling.
Through the reel, the belt automatically adapts to
the body of the passenger wearing it, allowing
freedom of movement.
The reel may lock up when the vehicle is parked on a
steep slope: this is perfectly normal. Furthermore,
the reel mechanism locks the belt if it is pulled
sharply or in the event of sudden braking, collisions
and high-speed bends.
All rear seats are fitted with inertia seat belts with
three anchor points and a reel.
WARNING
Remember that , in the event of a violent
collision, back seat passengers not
wearing seat belts represent a serious danger
for the front seat passengers as well as for
themselves.

SBR SYSTEMThe vehicle is equipped with the SBR (Seat Belt
Reminder) system, which warns the driver and the
front passenger if their seat belt is not fastened,
as follows:
❒warning light
comes on and the buzzer sounds
continuously for the first 6 seconds;
❒warning lightblinks and intermittent activation
of the beeper for the next 90 seconds.
For permanent deactivation, contact a Fiat
Dealership.
The SBR system can also be reactivated through the
setup menu.
PRETENSIONERSTo increase the protective efficiency of the front seat
belts, the vehicle is fitted with pretensioners. These
devices, in the event of a violent head-on crash or
side impact, rewind the seat belts a few centimetres.
In this way, they ensure that the belts fit tightly to
the wearer before the restraining action begins.
The seat belt reel locks to indicate that the
pretensioner has cut in; the seat belt cannot be
drawn back up even when guided manually.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest degree of
protection from the action of the pretensioners,
wear the seat so it fits snugly over the chest and
hips.
A small amount of smoke may be produced when the
pretensioners cut in. This smoke is not toxic and
does not indicate a fire.
The pretensioner does not require any maintenance
or lubrication. Anything that modifies its original
conditions invalidates its efficiency. If, due to unusual
natural events (floods, sea storms, etc.), the device
has been affected by water and mud, it absolutely
must be replaced.

Every control, repair and replacement operation
concerning the airbags must be carried out only at
Fiat Dealerships.
If you are having the vehicle scrapped, have the airbag
system deactivated at a Fiat Dealership first. If the
vehicle changes ownership, the new owner must be
informed of the method of use of air bags and the
above warnings and also be given this "Owner's
Handbook".
Pretensioners, front airbags and front side bags are
deployed differently according to the type of
collision. Non-deployment of one of these devices
does not therefore indicate a system fault.
WARNING
There may be a fault in the retaining
systems if the warning light
does not
light up when the key is turn on or remains on
while travelling (on some versions with a
message on the display). In this case, the airbags
or the pretensioners may not be activated in
the case of an accident or (more seldom) they
may be activated incorrectly. Contact a Fiat
Dealership immediately to have the system
checked.
WARNING
The expiration dates of the explosive
charge and the clock wire are shown on
a label contained in the glove box. Go to a Fiat
Dealership to have the devices replaced when
the expiration date approaches.
WARNING
Do not travel carrying objects in your
lap, in front of your chest or between
your lips (pipe, pencils, etc .): they could cause
severe injur y if the airbag is deployed.

PARKING THE CAR
Proceed as follows:
❒stop the engine and engage the handbrake;
❒engage a gear (1
stgear if parked uphill or reverse if
facing downhill) and leave the wheels turned.
If the vehicle is parked on a steep slope, it is
advisable to block the wheels with a wedge or stone.
To prevent draining the battery, do not leave the
ignition key turned to MAR. Always remove the key
when you leave the vehicle.
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle.
Always remove the ignition key when leaving the
vehicle, and take it with you.
SNOW TYRESA Fiat Dealership will be happy to provide advice
concerning the most suitable type of tyre for your
requirements.
For the type, pressures and specifications of the
snow tyre to be used, follow carefully the
instructions given in the “Wheels” paragraph of the
“Technical specifications” section.
The winter performance of these tyres is
considerably reduced when the tread thickness is less
than 4 mm. If this is the case, replace them.
Due to their specific features, the performance of
snow tyres is much lower than that of standard tyres
in normal conditions or on long motorway stretches.
You should therefore use them only in the
conditions for which they were designed.

Dealership immediately.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.ABS SYSTEM FAULT (amber)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning
light turns on but should go off after a few seconds.

system. Drive carefully and go to a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
EBD FAULT (red/amber)
Simultaneous lighting of warning lights
and
with the engine running indicates an EBD system
fault or that the system is not available. In this case,
the rear wheels may suddenly lock and the vehicle
may swerve when braking sharply. Drive very
carefully to a Fiat Dealership to have the system
inspected immediately.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
ESP/TRACTION PLUS SYSTEM
FAULT (amber)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning
light turns on but should go off after a few seconds.
If the warning light does not go off, or stays on
together with the LED on the ASR OFF button when
travelling, contact a Fiat Dealership.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
NoteFlashing of the warning light while driving
indicates the action of the ESP system.
