CONTENTS

Do not rest your head, arms or elbows on
the doors, windows or window bag de-

ployment area as you could be injured during the
inflation phase.

WARNING

Never lean you head, arms or elbows out
of the window.

WARNING

Do not cover the front seat backrest with
sheets or covers that are not compatible

with side bags.

WARNING

If, when turning the key to MAR, the warn-
ing light

¬

does not turn on or if it stays

on when travelling (together with the message on
the multifunction display, where provided), there
could be a failure in the safety systems; if this is
the case, the airbags or pretensioners may not trig-
ger in the event of an accident or, in a minor num-
ber of cases, they could activate incorrectly. Con-
tact a Fiat Dealership immediately to have the
system checked before driving off.

WARNING

GENERAL WARNINGS

Do not travel with objects in your lap,
in front of your chest, or between your lips

(pipes, pencils, etc.). In the event of a crash when
the airbag is deployed, you may be seriously in-
jured.

WARNING

Always drive keeping your hands on the
steering wheel rim so that, in the event of

airbag activation, it can inflate without obstruc-
tion. Do not drive with your body slouched for-
wards; keep the backrest upright and lean back
into it.
