The figure is only an ex-
ample for mounting. At-
tain to the instructions
for fastening which must be en-
closed with the specific child re-
straint system you are using.
GROUPS 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried
facing backwards on a cradle seat,
which, supporting the head, does not
induce stress on the neck in the event
of sharp deceleration.
The cradle is restrained by the car
seat belts, as shown infig. 12and in
turn it must restrain the child with its
own belts. SERIOUS DANGER: Never place cradle child’s seats on
the front passenger seat of cars fitted with passenger’s
air bag. The air bag activation could cause serious injuries,
even mortal. You are advised to carry children always on the rear seats,
as this is the most protected position in the case of a crash. In any case,
children’s seats must absolutely not be fitted on the front seat of cars
with passenger’s air bag, which during inflation could cause serious in-
jury, even mortal, regardless of the seriousness of the crash that trig-
gered it. Children may be placed on the front seat of cars fitted with
passenger’s air bag deactivation. In this case, it is absolutely necessary
to check the warning light
Fon the cluster to make sure that deacti-
vation has actually taken place (see paragraph “Passenger’s front air
bag” at item “Front air bags”). The front passenger’s seat shall be ad-
justed in the most backward position to prevent any contact between
child’s seat and dashboard.

57GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
Do not apply stickers or
other objects to the
steering wheel or to the
passenger's air bag cover or on
the side roof lining. Never apply
objects on the dashboard on pas-
senger side (e.g. mobile phones)
since they could interfere with
proper passenger air bag inflation
and cause severe injuries. – car wedging under other vehicles
or protective barriers (for
example under a truck or guard
rail);
as it offers no additional protection
compared with the seat belts, conse-
quently, it would be pointless. There-
fore, failure to come into action in the
above circumstances does not mean
that the system is not working prop-
erly.FRONT AIRBAG
PASSENGER SIDEThe passenger side airbag was de-
signed and calibrated to protect a per-
son wearing seat belts.
When fully inflated, the bag will fill
most of the space between the dash-
board and the passenger.
Manual deactivation
The passenger side airbag can be de-
activated if it is absolutely necessary
to carry a child in the front passenger
seat.
Turn the specific control switch un-
der the middle of the dashboard be-
tween the sound system compart-
ment and the oddment compartment
fig. 81with the ignition key to deac-
tivate the airbag. SERIOUS DAN-
GER: Never place
cradle child’s seats
on the front passenger seat of
cars fitted with passenger air bag.
Air bag activation could cause se-
rious injuries, even mortal. In the
case of need, always deactivate
the passenger’s air bag when a
child’s seat is placed on the front
seat. The front passenger’s seat
shall be adjusted in the most
backward position to prevent any
contact between child’s seat and
dashboard. Even if not compul-
sory by law, you are recom-
mended to reactivate the air bag
immediately as soon as child
transport is no longer necessary.

The system (all versions) consists of:
sound system power wires, front
dashboard speaker wires, aerial wire,
sound system housing, front speaker
housing.
The radio should be installed in the
compartment occupied by the object
tray which can be removed by releas-
ing the two retaining tabs A-fig. 84.
The power supply, speaker connec-
tion and aerial cables can be found in
this compartment. Contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship if you want to install

chasing your car. Their staff will
advise you on how to safeguard
the life of the battery. Excessive
idle intake can damage the bat-
tery and invalid the battery war-
ranty as well.
Large oddments compartments in
the dashboard making the passenger
compartment even more comfortable
are found in cars not equipped with a
SOUND SYSTEM SET-UP.
A specific

ACCESSORIES
PURCHASED BY THE
OWNER
If after buying the vehicle, you decide
to install electrical accessories that re-
quire 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 sug-
gesting the most suitable devices be-
longing to Lineaccessori Fiat, will also
evaluate the overall electric absorption,
checking whether the vehicle electric
system is able to withstand the load re-
quired, or whether it needs to be inte-
grated with a more powerful battery.
Take care when fitting
additional spoilers, alloy
rims and non-standard
wheel caps: they might reduce
ventilation of the brakes, thus
their efficiency, during abrupt
and repeated braking, or long
downhill slopes. Make sure that
nothing (mats, etc.) gets in the
way of the pedals when they are
pushed down.

103IN AN EMERGENCY
An additional 7.5A fuse is located by
the side of the climate control system.
It can be reached from inside the pas-
senger compartment under the dash-
board.
Fuses in the engine
compartment
A fusebox is located on the left side
of the engine compartment behind the
battery. It contains four high amper-
age fuses A-fig. 40 (MAXI FUSES)
which act as additional fire protection
in preventing high intensity cables
from overheating the following :
A- 30A - injection control unit.
B- 40A - Ignition switch.
C- 30A - engine cooling fan.D- 60A -dashboard fusebox
power.
IMPORTANT Go directly to a
Fiat Dealershipto have any one of
these four fuses restored.
Other version-specific fuses are
arranged next to the four MAXI fuses.
They protect the following devices:
E - 30A - climate control sys-
tem.
F - 30A - optional power cir-
cuits.
G - 40A - electrical power
steering system.
H - 60A - ABSA fusebox B-fig. 41 containing other
three fuses is located in the engine
compartment on the right-hand side.
To reach the fuses, loosen the two
nuts A and remove the cover B.
