MANUAL DEACTIVATION OF
THE PASSENGER AIRBAGS
(for versions/markets where provided)
If a child must absolutely be carried on one
of the front seats, deactivate the front pas-
senger airbag and side bag for pelvis, chest
and shoulder protection (for versions/
markets, where provided).
The deactivation device fig. 14is located
on the edge of the glove compartment; to
access it open its flap. fig. 14
F0P0115m
Use the ignition key to turn the pawl of
the deactivation device to O
OFF
to deacti-
vate the airbag or to O
ON
to activate it.
Warning light
“
on the instrument pan-
el stays on constantly until the front pas-
senger airbags and side bag for chest pro-
tection (side bag) (for versions/markets
where provided) are reactivated.
SIDE BAGSThe car is equipped with front side airbags
for driver and passenger (for
versions/markets, where provided) pelvis,
chest and shoulder protection (front side
bags), airbags for protecting the heads of
front and rear occupants (window bags)
(for versions/markets where provided).
The front side airbags (for versions/mar-
kets, where provided) protect the occu-
pants during impacts of medium-high
severity, by placing the bag between the
occupant and the internal parts of the side
structure of the vehicle. Therefore non-
deployment of the side bags in other types
of impacts (front, rear, roll-overs, etc.)
does not indicate a system malfunction.
Side airbags (for versions/markets where
provided) are not a replacement for, but
are complementary to, the seat belts,
which you are recommended to always
wear, as specified by law in Europe and
most non-European countries.
An electronic control unit will inflate the
bags, when necessary, in the event of a
side impact. The bags will inflate instanta-
neously placing themselves between the
occupant bodies and the structures which
could cause injuries;

IMPORTANT Do not affix rigid objects to
the garment hooks or support handles.
IMPORTANT Do not rest your head,
arms or elbows on the door, windows or
the area in which the head protection side
bag (window bag) deploys to avoid possi-
ble injury during airbag inflation.
IMPORTANT Never lean your head, arms
or elbows out of the window.
WINDOW BAG fig. 16
(for versions/markets, where provided)
These comprise two “curtain” bags, one
on the right side and one on the left side
of the vehicle, housed behind the roof side
linings and covered by special trims. They
are designed to protect the head of front
and rear occupants in the event of a side
impact, thanks to the wide cushion infla-
tion surface.
In the event of a side impact, the system
provides best protection if the passenger
sits on the seat in a correct position, thus
allowing correct deployment of the side
bags.

SIDE BAG - fig. 15
(for versions/markets, where provided)
They are located in the backrests of the
door side front seats, and include an in-
stantly inflating bag which protect the
pelvis, chest and shoulder area of the oc-
cupants in the event of a side impact of
medium-high severity.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
If, when the key is turned to
M, the
¬warning light does
not switch on or stays on whilst dri-
ving, a fault may have occurred in the
restraint systems. In this case the
airbags or pretensioners may not be
deployed in an impact or, in a lower
number of cases, they may be de-
ployed accidentally. Before continu-
ing, contact a Fiat Dealership imme-
diately to have the system checked.
WARNING
For versions/markets where
provided, if warning lights
¬
and
“
stay on constantly contact a
Fiat Dealership for immediate check
of the system.
WARNING
IMPORTANT Do not wash the seats with
water or pressurised steam (by hand or at
automatic seat washing stations).
IMPORTANT The front airbags and/or
side bags may be deployed if the car is sub-
ject to violent impacts involving the un-
derbody area (e.g. violent impacts against
steps or kerbs, big holes or dips in the
road, etc.).
IMPORTANT When the airbag deploys it
emits a small amount of dust. The dust is
not harmful and does not indicate the be-
ginning of a fire. Furthermore, the surface
of the deployed bag and the interior of the
vehicle may be covered with a dusty
residue: this may irritate your skin and
eyes. Wash with mild soap and water in
the event of exposure.
IMPORTANT Airbag checking, repair and
replacement must be carried out at a Fi-
at Dealership.
IMPORTANT If the vehicle is scrapped,
have the airbag system deactivated at a Fi-
at Dealership.IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front airbags
and front side bags are deployed in differ-
ent ways, according to the type of impact.
Failure to deploy of one or more of the
devices does not indicate a system mal-
function.
Warning light
¬flashes to in-
dicate a failure of the
“
warning light: in this case, the py-
rotechnic charges of the passenger
airbag are deactivated (for versions/
markets, where provided). Contact a
Fiat Dealership immediately to have
the system checked.
WARNING
When the ignition key is
turned to M-ON, the warn-
ing light “
(with front passenger
airbag active) switches on and flashes
for a few seconds to remind you that
the passenger airbag will be deployed
in an impact, after which it should
switch off.WARNING
Do not cover the backrest of
the front seats with covers or
upholstery that are not suitable for use
with side bags.

DEVICES
If the vehicle has been stolen
or in the case of attempt to
steal it, if it has been subjected to
vandalism or floods, have the airbag
system checked by a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
The airbags may also be de-
ployed when the car is not
moving, if the key is in the ig-
nition and turned to M-ON
or when the engine 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 in-
stall on the passenger seat child re-
straint systems to be fitted rearward
facing on the front seat. Deployment
of the airbag following an impact
could cause fatal injuries to the child.
Therefore, always release the pas-
senger airbag when a rearward fac-
ing child restraint is installed on the
passenger front seat.The front pas-
senger seat must also be positioned
back as far as possible in order to
avoid the child restraint from coming
into contact with the dashboard. Im-
mediately reactivate the passenger
airbag as soon as the child restraint
system has been removed. Also re-
member that, if the key is turned to
S, none of the safety devices (airbags
or pretensioners) will be deployed in
the event of collision. Non-deploy-
ment of these devices does not indi-
cate a system malfunction.
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
the seat belts but increases
their efficiency. Because front airbags
are not deployed for low-speed im-
pacts, side collisions, rear-end shunts
or rollovers, in these cases occupants
are protected only by their seat belts,
which must therefore always be fas-
tened.
WARNING
Do not travel carrying objects
in your lap, in front of your
chest or between your lips (pipe, pen-
cils, etc.). They could cause severe in-
jury if the airbag is deployed.
