Note that even though your vehicle may
be moderately damaged in a collision, the
collision may not have been severe enough
to trigger the front or side air bags to in-
flate. If your vehicle sustains ANY front-
end or side damage, have the air bag sys-
tem inspected by an authorized Fiat Deal-
ership to ensure it is in proper working
order.
Your vehicle is equipped with a diagnostic
module which records information about
the air bag system if the air bags deploy
in a crash. The module records informa-
tion about overall system status, which
sensors activated the deployment.SERVICING THE AIR BAG
SYSTEM
If the air bags inflate, have the air bags and
related components replaced by an au-
thorized Fiat Dealership as soon as pos-
sible.
If your vehicle ever gets in deep water and
the driver’s floor is submerged, the air bag
controller could be damaged. If it does,
have the air bag system inspected by the
Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
Special procedures are required for ser-
vicing or replacing an air bag. For that rea-
son, only an authorized Fiat Dealership
should be allowed to service or replace
your air bags. Please remind anyone who
services your Fiat that it has air bags.Service on or around air bag components
or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized Fiat Dealership. Improper ser-
vice could result in unintended air bag de-
ployment or could render the air bag in-
operative. Either of these two conditions
may result in severe injury.
To prevent damage or unintended infla-
tion of the air bag system, be sure the bat-
tery is disconnected and the ignition
switch has been in the “LOCK” position
for at least 90 seconds before perform-
ing any electrical service work on your Fi-
at. Do not touch air bag system compo-
nents or wires. The wires are wrapped
with yellow tape or yellow tubing, and the
couplers are yellow for easy identification.
Scrapping a vehicle that has an uninflated
air bag can be hazardous. Ask your Fiat
Dealership, body repair shop or scrap
yard for help with disposal.

Never return the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” posi-
tion and remove the ignition key
while the vehicle is moving. The steer-
ing wheel will lock and you will not be
able to steer the vehicle.
Always return the ignition switch to
the “LOCK” position and remove the
ignition key when leaving the vehicle
even if a short time. Also do not leave
children alone in a parked vehicle.
Unattended children could cause ac-
cidental movement of the vehicle or
could tamper with power windows or
power sunroof. They also could suf-
fer from heat stroke in warm or hot
weather. These could result in severe
injury or even death.
WARNING
IMPORTANT
❒Do not use the starter motor for more
than 15 seconds at a time. For diesel
engine model, do not use the starter
motor for more than 30 seconds at a
time. If the engine does not start, wait
15 seconds before trying again. If the
engine does not start after several at-
tempts, check the fuel and ignition sys-
tems or consult your Fiat Dealership.
❒Do not leave the ignition switch in the
“ON” position if the engine is not run-
ning as the battery will discharge. You can also turn the ignition switch by
inserting the ignition key into the slot.
The ignition switch cap (1) is installed to
make the ignition switch turn easily.

CRUISE CONTROL
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Cruise Control is an electronic device to
assist driving, which makes it possible to
maintain the vehicle at the desired speed
without the need to press the accelerator.
The device must only be used in particu-
lar safety conditions, at a speed above 40
km/h (25 mph), on long stretches of strai-
ght, dry road with little change in speed
(e.g. motorways). Therefore it is not re-
commended to use this device on extra-
urban roads with traffic. Do not use it in
cities.
