Seat belts must also be worn by ex-
pectant mothers: the risk of injury in
the case of accident is much greater
for them, too, if they do not have a
seat belt on.
Of course, they must position the
lower part of the belt very low down
so that it passes under the abdomen
fig. 63.HOW TO KEEP THE SEAT
BELTS IN PROPER WORKING
ORDER AT ALL TIMES
1)When wearing the seat belts, al-
ways ensure they are not twisted and
are free to wind in and out.
2)Following a serious accident, re-
place the belt being worn at the time,
even if it does not seem damaged. Al-
ways replace the seat belts if preten-
sioners have been activated.
3)When cleaning the belts, wash
them by hand with water and neutral
soap, rinse them and let them dry in
the shade. Do not use industrial
strength detergents, bleach, colouring
or any other chemical substance that
could weaken the fibres.
4)Do not allow the reels to get wet:
they are only guaranteed to work
properly if they remain dry.
5)Replace the seat belt when show-
ing significant wear or cut signs.TRANSPORTING

SERIOUS DAN-
GER: Never place
cradle child’s seats
on the front passenger seat of
cars fitted with passenger air bag
since the air bag activation could
cause serious injuries, even mor-
tal. You are advised to carry chil-
dren always on the rear seat, as
this is the most protected posi-
tion in the case of a crash, as il-
lustrated by the labels fig. 64 on
the seats. In any case, children’s
seats must absolutely not be fit-
ted on the front seat of cars with
passenger’s air bag, which during
inflation could cause serious in-

All restraint systems must show ho-
mologation data and control markings
on a tag which is solidly fastened to the
system and cannot be removed.
Children weighing than 1.5 m are,
with reference to restrain systems,
considered adults and can wear nor-
mal seat belts.
We recommend using Lineaccessori
Fiat child restraint systems for each
weight group. These systems were
specifically designed and tested for Fi-
at vehicles.GROUP 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg are to be seated
in a cot type seat supporting the child’s
head facing backwards. This ensures
there is no stress on the child’s neck
in sudden decelerations.
The cot is secured with the seat belts
as shown in fig. 66. Furthermore, the
child must be strapped to the cot.GROUP 1
Children from 9 to 18 kg are to be
seated facing forward in child seats
with front cushions,fig. 67. The ve-
hicle seat belt secures both seat and
child.
The figure is only an ex-
ample. Follow the in-
structions for fastening
the specific child restraint system
you are using.

There are child re-
straints for Groups 0 and
1 which are fastened with
the vehicle seat belts by means of
an attachment on the seat back.
The child is then secured to the
seat with specific straps. Due to
their weight, child seats can be
dangerous if they are fitted in-
correctly (e.g. placing a cushion
between the seat and the belts).
Always follow the specific instal-
lation instructions for the child
restraint system you are using.
The figure is only an ex-
ample. Follow the in-
structions for fastening
the specific child restraint system

Children from 15 to 25 kg can be
seated directly with the vehicle seat
belts. The seat has the purpose of po-
sitioning the child correctly with re-
spect to the seat belt so that the di-
agonal section crosses the child’s chest
(never the child’s throat) and the hor-
izontal section fits snugly on the child’s
hips (and not the child’s abdomen)
fig. 68.GROUP 3
For children from 22 to 36 kg, the
size of the chest no longer requires a
support to space the child’s back from
the seat back.
Fig. 69shows proper child seat po-
sitioning on the rear seat.
Children taller than 1.5 m can wear
seat belts like adults.

PASSENGER SEAT COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATIONS ON CHILD’S SEAT USE
The car complies with the new European Standard 2000/3/CE which enforces the use of restraint systems classified ac-
cording to the following tables:
1)Child restraint systems should be
installed on the rear seat as this is the
most protected area in the vehicle in
the event of a crash.Children must never be
seated in the front pas-
senger seat in cars with
passenger’s front airbag.2)When deactivating the passenger
front air bag, always check that the sys-
tem has actually been deactivated by
looking at the specific warning light
“
that shall be on with fixed light on the
instrument panel. To sum up the safety precautions to follow when transporting children:

The seat fitted with child restraint
system shall be set in the most back-
ward position.
You are recommended to choose
Kiddy Isofix since this seat has been
designed and tested specifically for this
vehicle. Kiddy Isofix has been type ap-
proved according to the European
Standard ECE-R44/03.
Type Isofix restraint systems are fas-
tened to two metal brackets A-fig.
70, between the seat back and the
cushion. 3)Keep to the instructions for fas-
tening the specific child restraint sys-
tem you are using which must be pro-
vided by the manufacturer. Keep the
child restraint system installation in-
structions with the vehicle documents
and the Handbook. Never use a child
restraint system without installation
instructions.
4)Always check that the seat belt is
well fastened by pulling the webbing.
5)Only one child can be secured to
a child restraint at a time. Never car-
ry two children in one restraint system.
6)Always check that the seat belts
are not positioned on the child’s
throat.
7)While travelling, do not let the
child seat incorrectly or release the
belts.
8)Passengers should never carry
children or babies on their laps. No-
one, however strong they are, can
hold a child in the event of a crash.
9) In case of an accident, replace the
seat with a new one.Presetting for mounting the
“Type Isofix” child restraint
system
The car is equipped for Type Isofix
child restraint system installation. Type
Isofix is a new European unified sys-
tem to carry children on the seats
which does not prevent using tradi-
tional child restraint systems. This sys-
tem must be fastened using the ap-
propriate brackets set on the car.
Mixed fitting is possible, with a tra-
ditional child restraint system on the
left and an Type Isofix restraint system
on the right. Being their size different,
it is possible to fit on the seats up to
a maximum of three traditional child
restraint systems, while only two Isofix
restraint systems can be attached to
the fasteners.
Lineaccessori Fiat includes Kiddy
Isofix restraint system for children
weighing up to 18 kg with the child
seat placed in the driving direction and
up to 13 kg with the child seat placed
in the opposite direction (groups 0,
0+and 1).

Mount the child re-
straint system only with
the car stationary. The
Isofix child restraint system is
properly anchored to the mount-
ing brackets when clicks are
heard. In any case, keep to the in-
stallation instructions that must
be provided by the child restraint
system’s Manufacturer.The Kiddy Type Isofix seat can how-
ever be fitted to the front passenger
seat even if not provided with Isofix
mounts: in this case, the child’s seat
must be fastened by means of the
three-anchoring point seat belt both
in the ahead and backward positions
The Type Isofix child’s seat covers
three weight groups: 0, 0+and 1.
Fitting the seat for the 0
and 0+ group fig. 71
For children included in groups 0and
0+, the restraint system faces back
(for children with weight up to 13 kg)
and the child is held by the restraint
system belts D.
Proceed as follows to fit the child re-
straint system in the correct way:
– the release lever Bmust be at rest
position (inward);
– find the presetting brackets A, then
position the child restraint system with
the fastening devices Caligned with
the brackets;– push the child restraint system un-
til hearing the locking clicks;
– check proper locking by moving
the child’s seat with force: the built-
in safety mechanism actually inhibit im-
proper coupling with only one cou-
pling locked.

safety chair must be fitted in the ahead
direction; perform this operation by
following the instructions provided by
the child seat’s Manufacturer.
With the child’s seat in this position,
adjust the corresponding front seat in
such a way that the Kiddy Isofix seat
structure leans against the front seat
backrest.

– for seats positioned facing the run-
ning direction, fasten the upper belt (in

ately behind the seat:
– check proper locking by moving
the child’s seat with force: the built-
in safety mechanism actually inhibit im-
proper coupling with only one cou-
pling locked.
With this configuration, the child is
