WARNING
42)The tank cap is specific. If you need to
replace it, make sure it is the same as the
original. Contact a Fiat Dealership. Do not
let the cap near a flame or heat source. Do
not wash the filling area with a high
pressure cleaning machine.
43)If there is a persistent odour of fuel,
proceed as follows: stop the vehicle when
traffic conditions allow and disengage the
starter device; start the emergency lights
and get all the occupants out of the vehicle
and away from traffic; contact a Fiat
Dealership.
44)For vehicles with Start&Stop function:
to refuel, the engine must be turned off
(and not in stand-by): you must stop the
engine (refer to the "Starting the engine”
paragraph in the “Starting and driving”
chapter):45)Any intervention or modification of the
fuel supply system (electronic circuits,
wiring, fuel circuit, injector, guards, etc.) is
strictly prohibited because of the risks
involved (entrust this exclusively to qualified
Fiat Dealership personnel).
IMPORTANT
7)Do not mix petrol (unleaded or E85) with
diesel, even the smallest amount. Do not
use ethanol-based fuel if your vehicle is not
suitable. To prevent damage to the engine,
do not add additives to the fuel.
8)When you intervene near the engine, this
last could be hot. Moreover, the cooling fan
could start up at any time. The

20) 21)
3)
Depending on the trim, there could be:front seat belt retractor locking
pretensioners;
load limiters;
driver and passenger front airbags.
These systems are designed to function
separately or at the same time in case
of a frontal collision.
Depending on the violence of the crash,
the system activates:
seat belt locking.
seat belt pretensioner (which
activates the belt tension);
front airbags.
WARNING
91)Check the safety devices after every
accident.
92)Any intervention on the complete
system (pre-tensioners, airbags, electronic
modules, wiring) or re-use on another
vehicle, even if identical, is strictly
prohibited.
IMPORTANT
20)In order to prevent accidental
deployments that could cause damage,
only qualified Fiat Dealership personnel can
intervene in pre-tensioners and air bags.
21)Checking the electrical features of the
actuator can only be effected by specifically
prepared personnel using the proper tools.
IMPORTANT
3)When the vehicle is scrapped, see a Fiat
Dealership to remove the pre-tensioner gas
generator and air bags.
SEAT BELTS
93)
For obvious safety reasons, always
fasten the seat belts. In addition, always
comply with the laws of the country you
are in.
IMPORTANT For full effectiveness of the
rear seat belts, make sure that the
single rear seat is correctly locked in
place. Refer to the "Rear single seats”
paragraph in the "Knowing your vehicle”
chapter.
Before starting the engine, first adjust
the driving position and adjust the seat
belts to obtain the best possible
protection (for all the passengers).
The safety belts must always be kept
clean. Use products selected by Fiat
Dealership services or soap and warm
water, rubbing with a sponge and
drying with a dry cloth. Do not use
detergents or chemical products.
ADJUSTING THE DRIVER'S
POSITION
Sit with your back against the
backrest (after taking off clothing like
coat, jacket, etc.). This is an essential
factor for correctly positioning the back;
adjust the seat position according to
the pedals. The seat position must be
so as to allow pressing the clutch pedal
all the way. The backrest must be
inclined so arms are slightly bent;

SAFETY

100)The seat belt must not be twisted.
101)After an accident, check the seat
belts and if necessary replace them. In
addition, replace the seat belts if they start
to show any sign of wear or deterioration.
102)When refitting the single rear seat,
make sure the safety belts and their tabs
are positioned correctly so they can be
used normally.
103)Check that the seat belt locking
device is correctly inserted into the buckle.
104)Do not insert any object that could
block the belt and compromise its correct
operation.
105)Make sure you have positioned the
locking housing (it should not be covered,
crushed or flattened by people or objects).PRE-TENSIONERS
106)
When the pretensioners intervene, they
make the seat belt adhere to the seat
occupant's body, increasing the
effectiveness of the seat belt.
With starter switch on, in the event of a
violent frontal collision, depending on its
magnitude, the system may trigger the
seat belt winder pretensioner 1
fig. 181causing it to retract the belt
immediately.
LOAD LIMITERS
Depending on the collision’s degree of
violence, this mechanism activates to
limit the seat belt action against the
body to a supportable level.
WARNING
106)Check the safety devices after every
accident. Any intervention on the complete
system (pre-tensioners, air bags, electronic
modules, wiring) or re-use on another
vehicle, even if identical, is strictly
prohibited. In order to prevent accidental
deployments that could cause damage,
only qualified Fiat Dealership personnel can
intervene in pre-tensioners and air bags.
Checking the electrical features of the
actuator can only be effected by
specifically prepared personnel using the
proper tools. When the vehicle is
scrapped, see a Fiat Dealership to remove
the pre-tensioner gas generator and air
bags.

SIDE AIR BAGS
SIDE AIRBAGS(For versions/markets where provided)
These are air bags that can be installed
in the front seats and inflate to the side
of the seat (door side) in order to
protect the car's occupants in the event
of a violent side collision.
DRIVER'S AIR BAG(For versions/markets where provided)
These are air bags on each upper side
of the vehicle. They inflate along the
front door side windows to protect the
occupants in case of a violent side
collision.

WARNING
119)When you lend or re-sell the vehicle,
tell the new owner of these conditions for
use and hand over this owner handbook.
120)Installing seat covers: seats equipped
with airbags require covers specifically
made for the vehicle. Consult a Fiat
Dealership. Using any other liner (or liners
specific to another vehicle) could cause
these airbags to function incorrectly and
jeopardise the occupants' safety.121)Never place an accessory, an object
or an animal between the backrest, the
door and interior coverings. Do not cover
the seat backrest with items like clothing or
accessories. These could cause the airbag
to function incorrectly or cause injury when
the airbag deploys.
122)Any dismantling or changes made to
the seats and their coverings is prohibited,
except if done by qualified Fiat Dealership
personnel.
123)The airbag was conceived to
complement the seat belt. The airbag and
seat belt together constitute inseparable
components to the same protective
system. Therefore, you always need to
fasten your seat belt. Not fastening them
can put the vehicle's occupants at risk of
aggravated injury and can increase injury
risk caused by deployment of the airbag
itself.
124)Seat belt pre-tensioner and airbag
deployment in case the vehicle flips over or
a violent rear collision is not systematic.
Collisions beneath the vehicle, like hitting a
curbstone, road unevenness, stones, etc.,
can cause the system to deploy.
125)Any intervention or modification to the
complete airbag system (airbag,
pre-tensioners, electronic modules, wiring,
etc.) is severely prohibited (except by
qualified Fiat Dealership personnel).
126)For safety reasons, check the airbag
system after the vehicle has undergone an
accident, theft or attempted theft.
IMPORTANT
22)To maintain correct operation and to
prevent accidental deployment, only
qualified Fiat Dealership personnel can
intervene on the airbag system.
IMPORTANT
4)When the vehicle is scrapped, contact a
Fiat Dealership to have the gas generator
removed.

In this case, the ESC and traction
control system are deactivated. Contact
a Fiat Dealership.
PBA (Panic Brake
Assist) SYSTEM
This is a complementary system to the
ABS that lets you reduce the vehicle's
braking distance.
Operating principle
The system detects an emergency
braking situation. In such cases, the
power brake immediately creates the
maximum braking, causing the ABS
system to also intervene.
ABS intervention lasts until the brake
pedal is released.
Hazard warning lights on
Depending on the versions, these lights
can go on when you slow down
abruptly.
Anticipated braking
Depending on the versions, when you
quickly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates braking so as to
diminish the braking distance.
When using Cruise Control:
if you are using the accelerator pedal,
with you release it, the system can
activate;
if you are not using the accelerator
pedal, the system will not activate.Irregular operation
When the system detects an
operational irregularity, the message to
that effect will appear on the instrument
panel with the alarm light
going
on.
Contact a Fiat Dealership.
TSA (Trailer Stability
Assist) DRIVING
ASSISTANCE WITH A
TRAILER
This system helps you maintain control
of the vehicle in case you are using a
trailer. It detects the swinging motion of
the trailer in certain driving conditions.
Operating conditions
the towing system must be
type-approved by the Fiat Dealership;
the wiring has to be approved by a
Fiat Dealership;
the trailer has to be connected to the
vehicle.
Operating principle
The function stabilises the vehicle by:
asymmetrical front wheel braking to
reduce swinging caused by the trailer;
four wheel braking and a limitation in
engine torque to reduce the vehicle
speed until the swinging stops.
The warning light
flashes on the
instrument panel to inform you of the
situation.
TRACTION PLUS
(GRIP CONTROL)
147) 23)
Where the vehicle is provided with one,
road grip check ensures easier control
of the vehicle in conditions where grip is
reduced (crumbly terrain).
"Road" mode
When the vehicle is started, the
appropriate message appears on the
display screen. The indicator light
on the instrument panel is off. This
position guarantees optimal use in
normal road conditions (dry, wet
roadbed, light snow, etc.).
The "Road" mode uses the traction
control system functions.
"Traction +" Mode
Press button 1 fig. 207: the warning
light
on the instrument panel turns
on along with the dedicated message.
