You should always lock the
passenger’s window opera-
tion when there are children in the ve-
hicle. Children can be seriously in-
jured if they get part of their body
caught by the window during opera-
tion.

dow entrapment, be sure no part of
the occupant’s body such as hands or
head is in the path of the electric win-
dows when closing them.
Always remove the ignition key when
leaving the vehicle even if a short
time. Also do not leave children alone
in a parked vehicle. Unattended chil-
dren could use the electric window
switches and get trapped by the win-
dow.

DRIVER’S SEAT BELT
REMINDER
When the driver doesn’t buckle his or her
seat belt, the driver’s seat belt reminder
light in the instrument cluster will come
on and a buzzer will sound as a reminder
to the driver to buckle his or her seat belt.
For more details, refer to the explanation
below.
If the driver’s seat belt remains unbuckled
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position, the reminder works as fol-
lows:
1) The driver’s seat belt reminder light will
come on.
2) After the vehicle’s speed has reached
about 15 km/ h, the driver’s seat belt
reminder light will blink and a buzzer
will sound for about 95 seconds.3) After step 2) has finished, the reminder
light will remain on until the driver’s
seat belt is buckled.
If the driver has buckled his or her seat
belt and later unbuckles the seat belt, the
reminder system will be activated from
step 1) or step 2) according to the vehi-
cle’s speed. When the vehicle’s speed is
below about 15 km/h, the reminder will
start from step 1). When the vehicle’s
speed is above about 15 km/h, the re-
minder will start from step 2).
The reminder will be automatically can-
celed when the driver’s seat belt is buck-
led or the ignition switch is turned off. To unfasten the belt, push the red
“PRESS” button on the buckle and allow
the belt to retract.
60A03979J187
It is absolutely essential that
the driver and passengers
wear their seat belts at all times. Per-
sons who are not wearing seat belts
have a much greater risk of injury if
an accident occurs. Make a regular
habit of buckling your seat belt before
putting the key in the ignition.

GENERAL WARNINGS
Never travel with objects on
your lap, in front of your
chest or with a pipe, pencil, etc. be-
tween your lips; injury may result in
the event of the air bag being trig-
gered.
WARNING
Remember that with the key
engaged and at ON, even if
the engine is not running, the air bags
may be triggered on a stationary ve-
hicle if it is bumped by another mov-
ing car. Therefore, never seat children
on the front seat even when the ve-
hicle is stationary. On the other hand
remember that if the key is at LOCK,
no safety system (air bags or preten-
sioners) is triggered in the event of an
impact; in this case, failure to come
into action cannot be considered as a
sign that the system is not working
properly.
WARNING
If the vehicle has been stolen
or an attempt to steal it has
been made, if it has been subjected to
vandals or floods, have the air bag
system checked by Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
Do not wash the seat back
rest with pressurised water
or steam (by hand or at automatic
seat washing stations).
WARNING
The front air bag is triggered
for shocks greater in magni-
tude that the pretensioners. For im-
pacts between these two thresholds,
it is therefore normal that only the
pretensioners are triggered.

IGNITION SWITCH
VEHICLE WITHOUT KEYLESS
START SYSTEM
The ignition switch has the following four
positions:
LOCK
This is the normal parking position. It is
the only position in which the key can be
removed.

use of the steering wheel after the key is
removed.
You must push in the key to turn it to the
“LOCK” position.
To release the steering lock, insert the key
and turn it clockwise to one of the other
positions. If you have trouble turning the
key to unlock the steering, try turning the
steering wheel slightly to the right or left
while turning the key.

To avoid possible injury, do
not operate controls by
reaching through the steering wheel.

START
This is the position for starting the engine
using the starter motor. The key should
be released from this position as soon as
the engine starts.
Ignition key reminder (if equipped)
A buzzer sounds intermittently to remind
you to remove the ignition key if it is in
the ignition switch when the driver’s door
is opened.
If the ignition device is tam-
pered with (e.g.: attempted
theft), have it checked over by a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
WARNING
When getting out of the ve-
hicle, always remove the key
to prevent any occupants from acci-
dentally activating the controls. Re-
member to engage the handbrake
and if the vehicle is parked on uphill
slope to engage the first gear. If the
vehicle is facing downhill, engage the
reverse gear. Never leave unsuper-
vised children in the vehicle.
WARNING
Never remove the ignition
key while the vehicle is mov-
ing. The steering wheel would auto-
matically lock as soon as you try to
turn it. This also applies when the ve-
hicle is being towed.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to
carry out whatever after-
market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifica-
tions (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect per-
formance and safety, cause the lapse
of warranty and also result in non-
compliance of the vehicle with ho-
mologation requirements.
