belt FIAT QUBO 2017 1.G Owner's Manual

WARNING
When the ignition key is turned to MAR,
the
warning light (with front
passenger side airbag activated) on the central
dashboard switches on and flashes for a few
seconds as a reminder that the passenger airbag
will be deployed in the event of a crash, then it
should switch off.
WARNING
The airbag deployment threshold is
higher than that of the pretensioners.
For collisions in the range between the two
thresholds, it is normal for only the
pretensioners to be activated.
WARNING
The airbag does not replace seat belts
but increases their efficiency.
Furthermore, since front airbags are not
deployed in low-speed frontal impacts, side
impacts, rear shunts or roll-overs, the
passengers are protected only by the seat belts
which must therefore be fastened at all
times.

when the vehicle is stationary and the driver's seat
belt is not correctly fastened. It will flash, and be
accompanied by an audible warning, if the front seat
belts are not correctly fastened when the vehicle
is moving.
The SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) acoustic warning tone
can be disabled only by a Fiat Dealership.
On some versions, the system can be reactivated
from the setup menu.

one or more doors or the boot are not properly
closed.

When turning the ignition key to MAR, the warning
light turns on but it should go off after a few
seconds.This warning light appears on the panel when the
engine oil level falls below the minimum
recommended value. Restore the correct engine oil
level (see “Checking fluid levels” in the "Servicing and
care" section).
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.

ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM
FAULT (petrol versions - amber)
Injection system failure
Under normal conditions, turning the ignition key to
MAR, the warning light turns on but it should go
off after the engine starts.
If the warning light stays on or comes on when
travelling, it means there is a fault in the injection
system which could cause loss of performance, poor
handling and high fuel consumption levels.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
Under these conditions, the vehicle can continue
travelling at moderate speed without demanding
excessive effort from the engine. In any case, you
should go to a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
