WARNING
18)For safety reasons, carry out these
operations when the vehicle is stopped.
19)When the front seat backrest is folded
down, the front passenger airbag must be
deactivated (refer to the “Passenger side
airbag and child restraint systems – how to
deactivate the airbags” paragraph in the
“Safety” chapter). Risk of serious injury in
case the air bag opens up because of
objects placed on the folded backrest
flying around. The label (on the dashboard)
and the silkscreen and printed markings
(on the windscreen) remind you of these
instructions.
20)For the occupants' safety, fasten
transported items when the seat in in table
position.
21)For safety reasons, carry out these
operations when the vehicle is stopped. In
order not to limit the safety belt's
effectiveness, do not incline the backrests
back too far. There should be no objects
on the driver's side floorboard: in case of
sharp braking, they could slide under the
pedals, hampering their use.
22)When moving a single rear seat, make
sure the relative anchorages are clean
(there must not be any stones, bits of cloth
or other items that could prevent the seat
from locking into place).
23)You absolutely must place the single
rear seats back into their original
anchorages. When driving, you must not
place the "single seats with their backrests
facing backwards.

labels A fig. 187 and fig. 188 on each
side of the passenger’s sun visor 3
fig. 187, remind you of these
instructions.Front passenger air bag activation

The safety devices complementary to
the front passenger seat belt have to be
activated.
Operating faults
If the activation/deactivation system for
the front passenger air bags is not
functioning, you cannot install the child
restraint on the front seat. We advise
you also not to travel with passengers
seated there.
Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
WARNING
107)The air bag system uses a
pyrotechnical principle, meaning that its
activation produces heat, emits smoke
(that does not mean fire) and generates an
explosive sound. Air bag deployment,
which should be immediate, can cause
skin injuries or other problems.108)Do not attach any object (pins, logos,
watches, phone support, etc.) to the
steering wheel.
109)The steering wheel must not be
covered in any way.
110)Dismantling the steering wheel is
prohibited (except by a qualified Fiat
Dealership technician).
111)Do not drive to close to the steering
wheel: adopt a driving position with your
arms slightly bent. This position will ensure
a sufficient distance for the air bag to
deploy efficiently.
112)Do not glue anything (pins, logos,
watches, phone supports, etc.) to the
dashboard near the airbag.
113)Do not place anything (animals,
umbrella, cane, boxes, etc.) between the
dashboard and the passenger.
114)Do not rest your feet on the
dashboard or the seat: these positions
could cause serious injuries. In general,
keep all parts of the body (knees, hands,
head, etc.) away from the dashboard.
115)The passenger air bag only protects
the side front seat passenger; the centre
front seat passenger is only protected by
the seat belt. We recommend you respect
normal safety regulations (fasten your seat
belt). There may be serious injuries in the
event of an accident.
116)The passenger airbag must be
activated/deactivated when the vehicle is
stationary. If deactivated while driving, theandwarning lights turn on. To
turn these lights off, you need to deactivate
then reactivate the passenger air bag again
when the vehicle is stopped.117)When the child restraint is no longer in
use, reactivate the front seat belt
complementary safety devices to ensure
front passenger protection in case of an
accident. Installing a rear-facing child
restraint system on the front passenger is
prohibited until the front seat belt
complementary safety devices have been
deactivated (refer to the "Passenger side
airbag and child restraint systems – how to
deactivate the airbags" paragraph in the
"Knowing your vehicle” chapter).
118)Because of the incompatibility of the
front passenger air bag deployment and
the positioning of a child seat facing
forward, NEVER INSTALL a child restraint
system facing backwards on a seat
equipped with FRONT AIRBAG
ACTIVATION. Otherwise, the CHILD may
risk DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY.

WARNING
127)To prevent opening the door from the inside, use the safety device (refer to the "Child safety” paragraph in the “Knowing your vehicle”
chapter).
128)A collision at 50 Km/h is the equivalent of falling 10 meters. Never hold a child in your arms or on your knees, in case of an accident you
would never be able to hold him even if you have your seat bets fastened. If the vehicle has been involved in a road accident, replace the child
restraint system, and check the seat belts and ISOFIX anchorages.
129)Never leave the vehicle unguarded with the electronic key and a child, a handicapped person or an animal inside, even for a short time.
This could result in your own safety or that of others who could start the engine, setting in motion equipment such as the electric windows or
even locking the doors. Moreover, in hot and/or sunny weather, the vehicle's interior temperature will increase rapidly. Risk of death or serious
injury.
130)Never leave a child alone in the vehicle. Make sure the child always has his/her seat belt fastened and correctly adjusted. Avoid too
heavy clothing that causes the belts to be loose. Never allow the child to put his/her head or arm out the window. Make sure the child is
seated correctly throughout the trip. especially when asleep.
131)Make sure the child seat or his/her feet do not prevent the front seat from locking into place correctly. Refer to the "Front seat"
paragraph in the "Knowing your vehicle” chapter. Make sure that the child seat installed in the vehicle is not at risk of coming out of its
housing. If you have to remove the head rest, make sure it is positioned so it is not thrown about in case of abrupt braking or collision. Always
fasten the child seat even if you are not using it so it is not thrown about in case of abrupt braking or collision.
132)RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY: before installing a rear-facing child restraint system in the front passenger seat, check that the
air bag has been correctly deactivated (refer to the "Passenger side airbag and child restraint systems" paragraph in this chapter).
133)Install the child seat preferably in one of the rear seats.
134)Never install a child seat on the rear centre seat. RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
135)Do not use child seats that could unlock the belt holding it in place: the child seat base must not rest on the seat belt buckle and/or
housing.
136)The seat belt must never be loose or twisted. Never pass the shoulder belt under your arm or behind your back. Check that the belt has
not been damaged by sharp edges. If the seat belt is not working normally, it will not protect the child. Contact a Fiat Dealership. Do not use
this seat until the belt has been repaired.
137)Using a child seat inappropriate for this vehicle will not properly protect the child. You risk causing him/her serious injury or death.
138)Do not modify any of the elements of the original safety system: seat belts, ISOFIX, seats and related fastening.
139)Check that the backrest of the forward-facing child restraint system is touching the backrest of the vehicle seat. In that case, the child
restraint system may not rest on the vehicle seat cushion.
140)The ISOFIX anchorages have been designed exclusively for child restraint systems with the ISOFIX system. Never fasten other child
restraint systems, nor seat belts or other objects to these anchorages. Check that there are no obstacles at the level of the anchor points. If
the vehicle has been involved in a road accident, have the ISOFIX anchorages checked and replace the child restraint system.
141)Never install a child restraint system with support feet on the central rear seat. Risk of death or serious injury.
