RADIO TRANSMITTERS
AND CELLULAR TELEPHONES
Radio transceiver equipment (e.g.: e-tacs
mobile phones, HAM radio systems and
the like) shall not be used inside the ve-
hicle 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 elec-
trical systems equipping the vehicle to mal-
function. This could compromise 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 EC-approved mobile phones
(GSM, GPRS, UMTS), strictly comply with
the instructions for use provided by the
mobile phone’s manufacturer.
ACCESSORIES
PURCHASED
BY THE OWNERIf after buying the vehicle, you decide to
install electrical accessories that require a
permanent electric supply (alarm, satellite
antitheft system, etc.) or accessories that
in any case burden the electric supply,
contact Fiat Dealership, whose qualified
personnel, besides suggesting the most
suitable devices belonging to Lineaccessori
Fiat, will also evaluate the overall electric
absorption, checking whether the vehicle
electric system is able to withstand the
load required, or whether it needs to be
integrated with a more powerful battery.
SICUREZZA
INSTALLATION OF
ELECTRIC/ELECTRONIC
DEVICES
Electric/electronic devices installed after
buying the vehicle and in after-market shall
bear the following marking:
Fiat Auto S.p.A. authorizes the installation
of transceivers, provided that installation
is workmanlike performed in compliance
with Manufacturer’s specifications at a spe-
cialised service centre.
IMPORTANT The installation of devices
involving modifications of vehicle charac-
teristics may determine the withdrawal of
the driving licence by the appointed pub-
lic authorities and the forfeiture of the
warranty as concerns defects/failures due
to said modification or leading directly or
indirectly to it.
Fiat Auto S.p.A. declines all responsibility
due to damages connected with the in-
stallation of accessories/devices not sup-
plied by or recommended by Fiat Auto
S.p.A. and installed not in compliance with
the specified prescriptions.

Always drive with your hands
on the rim of the steering
wheel so that the airbag can inflate
freely if required. Do not drive with
your body bent forward. Keep your
back straight against the backrest.
Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering wheel, on the dash-
board in the passenger airbag area,
on roof side trim. Never put objects
(e.g. mobile phones) on the passen-
ger side dashboard since they could
interfere with correct inflation of the
airbag and cause serious injury to the
passengers.
WARNING
FRONT DRIVER AIRBAG - fig. 12
This consists of an instantly inflating bag

centre of the steering wheel.

SEVERE DANGER:When an
active passenger airbag is
fitted, DO NOT install rear-
ward facing child restraints
on the front seat. Deploy-
ment of the airbag in an ac-
cident could cause fatal injuries to
the baby regardless of the severity of
the collision.Therefore, always re-
lease the passenger airbag when a
rearward facing child restraint is in-
stalled on the passenger front seat.
The front passenger seat must also
be positioned back as far as possible
in order to avoid the child restraint
from coming into contact with the
dashboard. Immediately reactivate
the passenger airbag as soon as the
child restraint system has been re-
moved.

MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANTThe charge in the battery
should be checked every year, preferably
at the start of winter to limit the risk of
electrolyte freezing. This check should be
carried out more frequently if the vehi-
cle is used mainly for short trips, or if it
is fitted with accessories that permanent-
ly absorb electricity even with the ignition
key removed, especially in the case of af-
ter market accessories.

CHANGING THE BATTERY
If required, replace the battery with a gen-
uine spare part having the same specifi-
cations.
If a battery with different specifications is
fitted, the service intervals given in the
“Service schedule” in this section will no
longer be valid.
Refer therefore to the instructions pro-
vided by the battery manufacturer.Incorrect fitting of electrical and electronic accessories can seriously
damage the vehicle. If after buying the vehicle, you want to install elec-
tric accessories which require permanent electric supply (alarm, free-
hand phone kit, etc.) contact Fiat Dealership whose qualified person-
nel, in addition to suggesting the most suitable devices, will evaluate the overall
electric absorption, checking whether the vehicle electric system is capable of
withstanding the load required, or whether it should be integrated with a more
powerful battery.
Batteries contain substances
that are very harmful for the
environment. You are advised
to have the battery changed
at a Fiat Dealership, which is properly
equipped for disposing of used batter-
ies respecting nature and the law.If the vehicle is left inactive
for long periods at cold, re-
move the battery and store it in a
warm place to prevent freezing.
