FRONT AIR BAGS
The driver’s front air bag is located behind
the center pad of the steering wheel and
the front passenger’s front air bag is lo-
cated behind the passenger’s side of the
dashboard. The words “SRS AIRBAG” are
molded into the air bag covers to identi-
fy the location of the air bags. If the “AIR BAG” light on the instrument
cluster does not blink when the ignition
switch is first turned to the “ON” posi-
tion, or the “AIR BAG” light stays on, or
comes on while driving, the air bag system
(or the seat belt pretensioner system (for
versions/markets, where provided)) may
not work properly. Have the air bag sys-
tem inspected by an authorized Fiat Deal-
ership as soon as possible.

Frontal collision range
Do not apply stickers or oth-
er objects to the steering
wheel or to the air bag cover on the
passenger’s side or on the side roof
lining. Never put objects (e.g. mobile
phones) on the dashboard on pas-
senger side since they could interfere
with proper air bag inflation and al-
so cause serious injury.

Air bags must inflate quickly and forceful-
ly in order to reduce the chance of seri-
ous or fatal injuries. However, an un-
avoidable consequence of the quick infla-
tion is that the air bag may irritate bare
skin, such as the facial area against a front
air bag. Also, upon inflation, a loud noise
will occur and some powder and smoke
will be released. These conditions are not
harmful and do not indicate a fire in the
car. Be aware, however, that some air bag
components may be hot for a while after
inflation.
The driver should not lean
over the steering wheel. The
front passenger should not rest his or
her body against the dashboard, or
otherwise get too close to the dash-
board. For vehicles with side air bags
and side curtain air bag, occupants
should not lean on or sleep against
the door. In these situations, the out-
of- position occupant would be too
close to an inflating air bag, and may
suffer severe injury.
Do not attach any objects to, or place
any objects over, the steering wheel
or dashboard. Do not place any ob-
jects between the air bag and the dri-
ver or front passenger. These objects
may interfere with air bag operation
or may be propelled by the air bag
in the event of a crash. Either of these
conditions may cause severe injury.
For vehicles with side air bags, do not
place seat covers on the front seats,
because seat covers could restrict the
air bag’s inflation. Also, do not place
any cup holders on the door, as the
cup holder could be propelled by the
air bag in the event of a crash. Either
of these conditions may cause severe
injury.
WARNING
A seat belt helps keep you in the proper
position for maximum protection when an
air bag inflates. Adjust your seat as far back
as possible while still maintaining control
of the vehicle. Sit fully back in your seat;
sit up straight; do not lean over the steer-
ing wheel or dashboard. Front occupants
should not lean on or sleep against the
door. Please refer to the “Seat Adjust-
ment” section and the “Seat Belts and
Child Restraint Systems” section in the
“BEFORE DRIVING” section for details
on proper seat and seat belt adjustments.

Ignition switch reminder
(When using the keyless start system)
A buzzer sounds intermittently to remind
you to return the ignition switch to the
“LOCK” position if it is in the “ACC” po-
sition when the driver’s door is opened. LOCK (1)
This is the normal parking position. It is
the only position in which the key can be
removed. It locks the ignition, and pre-
vents normal use of the steering wheel.

BLOWN
– Light bulbs can be hot
enough to burn your finger
right after being turned off. This is
true especially for halogen headlight
bulbs. Replace the bulbs after they
become cool enough.
– The headlight bulbs are filled with
pressurized halogen gas. They can
burst and injure you if they are hit or
dropped. Handle them carefully.
WARNING
IMPORTANT The oils from your skin may
cause a halogen bulb to overheat and burst
when the lights are on. Grasp a new bulb
with a clean cloth.
IMPORTANT Frequent replacement of a
bulb indicates the need for an inspection
of the electrical system. This should be
carried out by your Fiat Dealership.CENTER INTERIOR LIGHT
