What to do
LOW DIESEL EMISSIONS ADDITIVE (UREA) LEVEL
When low UREA level is detected, a text message will
appear on the instrument panel display, together with
the symbol
to indicate that UREA must be topped
up.
The symbol
stays on until the tank is topped up
with at least 5 litres of UREA.
If you do not top up, a specific message will appear
on the instrument panel display whenever a certain
threshold is reached until it will no longer be possible
to start the engine.
A message appears continuously on the display
when the residual range is approximately 200 km
accompanied by an auditory indication.
When the residual range is 0 km, a specific message
will appear on the display (for versions/markets, where
provided). It will no longer be possible to restart the
engine after it has been stopped.
It will be possible to restart the engine after pouring at
least 5 litres of UREA in the tank.
50)
Top up the UREA tank as soon as possible with at least
5 litres of UREA. If topping up is done with remaining
range of UREA in the tank equal to zero, you may need
to wait two minutes before starting the vehicle.
GEAR SHIFT INDICATION
(for versions/markets, where provided)
On vehicles with a manual transmission, the gear shift
indicator suggests gear changes to the driver (SHIFT
UP or SHIFT DOWN) via a special display on the
instrument panel. This suggestion to change gear is
designed to improve consumption and ensure the best
driving style.
NOTE The indication in the instrument panel remains
on until the driver shifts gear or the driving conditions
go back to a situation where gearshifting is not
required to improve consumption.

Always drive at a speed appropriate to the traffic conditions, the weather and traffic regulations. The engine may be stopped if the
DPF light is on; however, repeated interruption of the regeneration process may result in premature deterioration of the engine oil. For this
reason, always wait until the warning light switches off before stopping the engine as described above. It is not advisable to complete DPF
regeneration with the vehicle stationary.
50)
When the UREA tank is empty and the engine is stopped it is no longer possible to restart it until the UREA tank is topped up with at least
5 litres of UREA.
16)
If, when the ignition key is turned to MAR, the
warning light does not switch on, switches on constantly or flashes while driving (on
certain versions together with the message on the display), contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
17)
The presence of water in the fuel supply circuit may cause severe damage to the injection system and irregular engine operation. If the
warning light switches on (on some versions together with the dedicated message on the display), contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible to have the system bled. If the above indication occurs immediately after refuelling, water may have entered the tank: turn the engine
off immediately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
18)
During regeneration, the fan could be operated.

ACTIVE SAFETY
SYSTEMS
The vehicle has the following active
safety systems:
ABS;
EBD system;
Brake Assist system;
ESC system;
ASR system;
Hill Holder system;
MSR system;
For the operation of the systems, see
the following pages.
ABS
This is an integral part of the braking
system, which prevents one or more
wheels from locking and slipping
regardless of the road surface
conditions and braking intensity,
ensuring control of the vehicle even
during emergency braking.
The EBD system (Electronic Braking
Force Distribution) completes the
system allowing the brake force to be
distributed between the front and rear
wheels.
WARNING To obtain the maximum
efficiency of the braking system, a
bedding-in period of about 500 km is
needed: during this period it is better to
avoid sharp, repeated and prolonged
braking.
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can feel that the ABS has
come into action because the brake
pedal pulsates slightly and the system
gets noisier: it means that the vehicle
speed should be altered to suit the type
of road surface.
51) 52) 53)
FAULT INDICATIONS
ABS failure
ABS failure is indicated by warning light
in the instrument panel coming on
(together with the appropriate message
on the multifunction display on some
versions) (see "Warning lights and
messages").
In this case, the braking system will still
be effective, although without the extra
capacity offered by the ABS.
Drive carefully to the nearest Fiat
Dealership to have the system
checked.
EBD failure
ABS failure is indicated by warning
light
and
in the instrument
panel coming on (together with
the appropriate message on the
multifunction display on some versions)
(see "Warning lights and messages").
In this case, the rear wheels may
suddenly lock and the vehicle may
swerve when braking sharply. Drive
carefully to the nearest Fiat Dealership
to have the system checked.
54)
BRAKE ASSIST
(emergency braking
assistance integrated in
ESC)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This system (which cannot be
deactivated) recognises emergency
braking conditions according to the
speed of operation of the brake pedal
and provides an additional hydraulic
braking pressure to support that
provided by the driver. This allows
faster and more powerful operation of
the braking system.
Brake Assist is deactivated on the
versions equipped with ESP, in the
event of ESC system failure (indicated
by the
warning light coming on
together with a message in the
multifunction display, where provided).
51)
When the ABS cuts in and you feel
the brake pedal pulsating, do not remove
your foot, but keep the pedal pushed
down; in doing so you, will stop in the
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAFETY
78
shortest distance possible under the road
conditions at the time.
52)
If the ABS intervenes, this indicates
that the grip of the tyres on the road is
nearing its limit: you must slow down to a
speed compatible with the available grip.
53)
The ABS gets the most from the
available grip, but it cannot improve it; you
should therefore take every care when
driving on slippery surfaces and not take
unnecessary risks.
54)
If only the
instrument panel
warning light comes on (with a message
in the multifunction display on some
versions), stop the vehicle immediately and
contact the nearest Fiat Dealership. Any
loss of fluid will affect the brake system
functionality, both conventional and
ant-lock wheels.
ESC (Electronic
Stability Control)
SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
IN BRIEF
This is an electronic system that
controls vehicle stability in the event
of tyre grip loss, helping to maintain
directional control.
The ESC system is therefore
particularly useful when grip
conditions of road surfaces change.
The MSR system (adjustment of
the engine braking torque during
gear changes) and the HBA system
(automatic increase in the braking
pressure during emergency braking)
are present with ESC, ASR and Hill
Holder systems (for versions/markets
where provided).
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
This is signalled by the flashing of the
warning light
in the instrument
panel, to inform the driver that the
vehicle is in critical stability and grip
conditions.
SYSTEM ACTIVATION
The ESC system is automatically
activated when the vehicle is started.
FAULT INDICATIONS
In the event of a fault, the ESC will be
automatically switched off and the
warning light will come on permanently
on the instrument panel, along with a
message on the multifunction display
(for versions/markets where provided)
(see "Warning lights and messages"
section). The LED on the ASR OFF
button will also light up. Contact a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
HILL HOLDER SYSTEM
This system is an integral part of the
ESC system and facilitates starting on
slopes. It is automatically activated in
the following conditions:
uphill: vehicle stationary on a road
with a gradient higher than 5%, engine
running, brake pressed and gearbox
in neutral or gear (other than reverse)
engaged;
downhill: vehicle stationary on a road
with a gradient higher than 5%, engine
running, brake pressed and reverse
gear engaged.
When setting off, the ESC system
control unit maintains the braking
pressure at the wheels until the torque
necessary for starting is reached, or
in any case for a maximum of 1.75
seconds, allowing your right foot to be
moved easily from the brake pedal to
the accelerator.
If the vehicle has not departed
after 1.75 seconds, the system will
deactivate automatically by gradually
releasing the brake force.
During this release stage, the typical
brake disengagement noise indicating
that the vehicle is going to move
imminently will be heard.
Fault indications
System failure is indicated by
instrument panel warning light
with
digital display and warning light
on
the instrument panel with multifunction
display (for versions/markets, where
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
79
provided) (see section "Warning lights
and messages").
WARNING The Hill Holder system is
not a parking brake, therefore do not
leave the vehicle without activating the
handbrake, switching off the engine
and engaging first gear.
55) 56)
ASR SYSTEM (Antislip
Regulator)
This is a traction control system that
cuts in automatically every time one or
both drive wheels slip.
Depending on the slipping conditions,
two different control systems are
activated:
if the slipping involves both drive
wheels, the ASR intervenes reducing
the power transmitted by the engine;
if the slipping only involves one of the
drive wheels, it intervenes automatically
braking the wheel that is slipping.
The action of the ASR system is
particularly helpful in the following
circumstances:
slipping of the inner wheel on bends
due to dynamic variations in the load or
excessive acceleration;
excessive power transmitted to the
wheels, also in relation to road surface
conditions;
acceleration on slippery, snowy or icy
road surfaces;
in the case of loss of grip on a wet
surface (aquaplaning).
MSR system (engine drive
regulation)
The system prevents the drive wheels
from possibly locking, which could
happen, for example, if the accelerator
pedal is released suddenly or in the
case of a sudden downshifting in
conditions of poor grip.
In these conditions, the engine braking
effect could cause the drive wheels
to slip, resulting in a loss of vehicle
stability. In these situations, the MSR
system intervenes, restoring torque to
the engine in order to conserve vehicle
stability and increase safety.
Engagement/disengagement of the
ASR system
The ASR system switches on
automatically each time the engine is
started.
Whilst driving, the ASR can be
switched off and subsequently
switched on again by pressing the
fig. 108 button on the dashboard.
Switching off is shown by the
warning light on the instrument panel
switching on and a dedicated message
shown in the multifunction display,
where provided.
If the ASR is switched off when driving,
it is automatically switched on again
when the vehicle is started up.
When travelling on snowy roads with
snow chains, it may be helpful to turn
the ASR off: in fact, in these conditions,
the driving wheels skidding when
moving off gives you better traction.
108
F0V0576
FAULT INDICATIONS
In the event of a fault, the ASR will be
automatically switched off and the
warning light will appear permanently
on the instrument panel along with a
message on the multifunction display,
where provided (see "Warning lights
and messages"). In this case, contact
the Fiat Service Network as soon as
possible.

visibility and traffic. The driver is always
responsible for road safety.
56)
For the correct operation of the ESC
and ASR systems it is vital that the tyres
are the same make and the same type on
all the wheels, in perfect condition and,
above all, the recommended type and size.
OCCUPANT
PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
Some of the most important safety
equipment of the car comprise the
following protection systems:
seat belts;
SBR (Seat Belt Reminder) system;
head restraints;
child restraint systems;
Front airbags and side bags.
Read the information given the
following pages with the utmost care.
It is of fundamental importance that
the protection systems are used in the
correct way to guarantee the maximum
possible safety level for the driver and
the passengers.
SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
All vehicle seats are equipped with seat
belts with three anchor points and a
retractor.
The reel mechanism operates locking
the belt in the event of sharp braking or
strong deceleration due to an impact.
This allows the belt strap to slide
freely and to adapt to the body
of the occupant. In the event of
an accident, the belt will lock
reducing the risk of impact inside the
passenger compartment and of being
projected outside the car. The driver
is responsible for respecting, and
ensuring that all the other occupants of
the vehicle also respect, the local laws
in force in relation to the use of the seat
belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off. The seat belt should be
worn keeping the chest straight and
rested against the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold fastening
tongue (A) fig. 109 and insert it into
buckle (B), until it clicks into place.
If the seat belt jams during removal, let
it rewind for a short stretch, then pull it
out again without jerking.
Press button (C) to release the seat
belt. Guide the safety belt while it is
rewinding to prevent it from twisting.
57) 58)
109
F0V0023
The retractor may lock up when the
vehicle is parked on a steep slope: this
is perfectly normal. Furthermore, the
retractor mechanism locks the belt if
it is pulled sharply or in the event of
sudden braking, collisions and high-
speed bends.
All rear seats (for Doblò/Doblò Combi
versions) are fitted with inertia seat
belts with three anchor points and a
retractor.
The rear seat belts (for Doblò/Doblò
Combi versions) must be worn as
shown infig. 110 - fig. 111.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WARNING The backrest is correctly
secured when the red band on the
backrest folding handles (A) fig. 112
disappears. This red band indicates
that the backrest is not secured.
112
F0V0127
WARNING When putting the rear seats
(per Doblò/Doblò Combi versions) back
to their normal position, make sure the
seat belts are positioned so they are
ready to use.
59)
ADJUSTING THE SEAT
BELT HEIGHT
60) 61)
The seat belt height can be adjusted to
various positions using the regulator on
the central pillar.
Always adjust the height of the seat
belts to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the event of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.
57)
Never press button (C) fig. 109 when
travelling.
58)
Remember that after a violent impact,
rear-seat passengers who are not
wearing their seat belts not only expose
themselves to significant risk for injury, but
also represent a danger to passengers
occupying the front seats.
59)
Make sure that the backrest is
correctly secured on both sides (red bands
B not visible) to prevent it from moving
forward in the event of sharp braking,
causing injuries to passengers.
60)
The height of the seat belts must be
adjusted with the vehicle stationary.
61)
After the height adjustment, always
check that the regulator is locked in one
of the preset positions. To do this, push
downwards to enable the locking device
to click if the grip has not been released in
one of the possible positions.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAFETY
82
SBR SYSTEM
The S.B.R. system consists of an
acoustic warning device that, together
with the flashing warning lights
on the instrument panel, warns rear
seat passengers (driver side and, for
versions/markets where provided,
passenger side), that their seat belts
are not fastened.
On some versions there is also a panel
fig. 113 (provided as an alternative to
the warning light on the instrument
panel) located above the rear-view
mirror, which warns the front and back
seat passengers through acoustic and
visual warnings if their seat belts have
not been fastened.
113
F0V0635
Contact a Fiat Dealership to deactivate
this acoustic warning permanently.
The acoustic warning can be
reactivated at any time through the
Setup Menu (see "Menu options"
paragraph in the “Knowing the
instrument panel” chapter).
The warning lights fig. 113 may be red
or green and operate as follows.
1 = front left seat (driver status for
left-hand drive versions)
2 = front right seat (passenger status
for left-hand drive versions);
3 = second row left rear seat
(passenger);
4 = second row central rear seat
(passenger);
5 = second row right rear seat
(passenger);
6 = third row left rear seat
(passenger);
7 = third row right rear seat
(passenger);
FRONT SEATS (warning
light 1 = driver and 2 =
passenger)
Driver
If the driver is the only occupant and
the seat belt is not fastened, when 20
km/h is exceeded or when travelling at
a speed from 10 to 20 km/h for longer
than 5 seconds, a buzzer sequence
will be started (front seats) consisting
of a tone for 6 seconds followed by a
90 second beep.The warning light will
blink. The warning lights will stay on
constantly at the end of the cycle until
the engine is stopped. The acoustic
warning will be interrupted immediately
when the driver’s seat belt is fastened
and the warning light will turn green.
The reminder cycle (acoustic and
visual) will be repeated as described
above and the red warning light will
flash if the seat belt is unfastened again
while travelling.
Passenger
A similar solution applies for the front
passenger, with the difference that
the warning light turns green and the
warning is interrupted also when the
passenger leaves the car.
It both front seat belts are unfastened
while the vehicle is travelling a few
seconds apart, the acoustic indication
will refer to the most recent event and
the two warning lights will proceed with
the visual indication independently.
REAR SEATS (warning
lights 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7)
The reminder cycle is run only when
any seat belt is unfastened (red
blinking). In this condition, the warning
light for the seat belt which has been
unfastened will start flashing red
for approximately 30 seconds. An
acoustic signal is also emitted. The
visual indication (blinking red) will
start and end independently for each
warning light if several seat belts are
unfastened.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
83
The warning light will become green
when the relevant seat belt is fastened
again. The rear seat warning lights
will go out, if the front seat belts are
fastened, regardless of the state of the
belt (red or green) approximately 30
seconds after the last signal. All the
warning lights will come on when at
least one belt changes from fastened to
unfastened status or vice versa.
PRE-TENSIONERS
To increase the protective efficiency of
the front seat belts, the vehicle is fitted
with pretensioners. These devices, in
the event of a violent head-on crash or
side impact, rewind the seat belts a few
centimetres. In this way, they ensure
that the belts fit tightly to the wearer
before the restraining action begins.
It is evident that the pretensioners
have been activated when the belt
withdraws toward the retractor.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the
pretensioner which is not harmful and
does not involve any fire hazard. The
pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication.
Anything that modifies its original
conditions invalidates its efficiency. If,
due to unusual natural events (floods,
sea storms, etc.), the device has been
affected by water and/or mud, contact
a Fiat Dealership to have it replaced.
WARNING To obtain the highest
degree of protection from the action of
the pretensioner, wear the seat belt
tight to the chest and pelvis.
62)
19)
LOAD LIMITERS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
To increase passenger safety, the
front and rear seat belt retractors (for
versions/markets where provided)
contain a load limiter which controls the
force acting on the chest and shoulders
during the belt restraining action in the
event of a frontal collision.
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR
USING THE SEAT BELTS
Seat belts must also be worn by
pregnant mothers: the risk of injury in
the event of an accident is greatly
reduced for them and the unborn child
if they are wearing a seat belt. Pregnant
women must position the lower part of
the belt very low down so that it passes
over the pelvis and under the abdomen
(see fig. 114).
While pregnancy progresses, the
driver must adjust both seat and
steering wheel to have full control
over the vehicle (pedals and steering
wheel must be easy to access). The
maximum clearance should be kept
between the abdomen and the steering
wheel.
114
F0V0106
WARNING The belt strap must not
be twisted. The upper part must
pass over the shoulder and cross
the chest diagonally. The lower part
must adhere to the pelvis (as shown
in fig. 115) rather than the abdomen
of the passenger. Never use devices
(clips, clamps, etc.) that hold the seat
belt away from your body.
63)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAFETY
84
115
F0V0107
Removing or tampering with seat belt
and pretensioner components is strictly
prohibited.
Any intervention on these components
must be performed by qualified and
authorised technicians. Always go to a
Fiat Dealership.
WARNING Each seat belt must be
used by only one person. Never travel
with a child sitting on the passenger's
lap and a single belt to protect them
both fig. 116. In general, do not place
any objects between the person and
the belt.
64)
116
F0V0108
SEAT BELTS
MAINTENANCE
For keeping the seat belts in efficient
conditions, carefully observe the
following warnings:
always use the seat belt well
stretched and never twisted; make
sure that it is free to run without
obstructions;
check seat belt operation as follows:
attach the seat belt and pull it hard;
replace the belt after an accident of
a certain severity even if it does not
appear to be damaged. Always replace
the belt if the pretensioners were
deployed;
prevent the retractors from getting
wet: their correct operation is only
guaranteed if water does not get inside;
replace the seat belt when it shows
wear or cuts.
62)
The pretensioner may be used only
once. After it is triggered, have it replaced
at a Fiat Dealership.
63)
For maximum safety, keep the
backrest upright, lean back into it and
make sure the seat belt fits closely across
your chest and pelvis. Always fasten the
seat belts on both the front and the rear
seats! Travelling without wearing seat belts
will increase the risk of serious injury and
even death in the event of an accident.
64)
If the belt has been sharply pulled, for
example as the result of an accident, the
seat belt, together with the anchoring
devices, the anchoring device fixing
screws and the pretensioner must be
completely replaced. Even if the belt does
not present any exterior signs of wear or
damage, it may have lost its restraining
properties.
19)
Operations which lead to knocks,
vibrations or localised heating (over 100
°
C
for a maximum of 6 hours) in the area
around the pretensioners may cause
damage or trigger them. These devices
are not affected by vibrations caused by
irregularities of the road surface or low
obstacles such as kerbs, etc. Contact a
Fiat Dealership for any assistance.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEMS
CARRYING CHILDREN
SAFELY
65) 66) 67) 68)
For optimal protection in the event
of an impact, all occupants must
be seated and wearing adequate
restraint systems, including newborn
and other children! This prescription
is compulsory in all EC countries
according to EC Directive 2003/20/EC.
Children below the height of 1.50
metres and up to 12 years must be
protected with suitable restraint
systems and be seated on the rear
seats.
Statistics on accidents indicate that
the rear seats offer greater safety for
children. Compared with an adult, a
child's head is larger and heavier in
proportion to their body and the child's
muscular and bone structures are not
fully developed. Therefore, correct
restraint systems other than adult seat
belts are necessary to reduce as
much as possible the risk of injuries in
the event of an accident, braking or
sudden manoeuvre.
Children must be seated safely
and comfortably. As far as the
characteristics of the child seats used
allow, you are advised to keep children
in rear facing child seats for as long
as possible (at least until 3
–
4 years
old), since this is the most protected
position in the event of a collision.
The choice of the most suitable child
restraint system depends on the weight
and size of the child. There are various
types of child restraint systems, which
can be secured to the vehicle by
means of the seat belts or with the
ISOFIX/i-Size anchorages.
It is recommended to always choose
the restraint system most suitable for
the child; for this reason always refer to
the Owner Handbook provided with the
child restraint system, to be sure that it
is of the right type for the children it is
intended for.
65)
SEVERE DANGER When a front
passenger airbag is fitted, do not install
rearward facing child restraint systems
on the front passenger seat. Deployment
of the airbag in a crash could cause fatal
injuries to the child regardless of the
severity of the collision. It is advisable to
always carry children in a child restraint
system on the rear seat, which is the
most protected position in the event of a
collision.
66)
There is a symbol on the label on
the sun visor that illustrates the need to
deactivate the air bag if you are installing a
rear-facing child seat. Always comply with
the instructions on the passenger side sun
visor (see the "Supplementary Restraint
System (SRS) - Airbag" chapter).
67)
Should it be necessary to carry a child
on the passenger side front seat in a
rearward facing child restraint system, the
passenger side front airbag and side bag
must be deactivated through the display
main menu (see the "Display" paragraph,
"Knowing the instrument panel" chapter),
verifying deactivation by checking whether
the
OFF LED has switched on in the
trim located on the dashboard. Move the
passenger's seat as far back as possible
to avoid contact between the child
restraint system and the dashboard.
68)
Do not move the front or rear seat if
a child is seated on it or on the dedicated
child restraint system.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAFETY
86
In Europe the characteristics of child restraint systems are governed by regulation ECE-R44, which divides them into five weight
groups. The ECE-R44 standard has been paired with the ECE R-129 regulation, which defines the characteristics of the new i-
Size child restraint systems (see the "Suitability of passenger seats for i-Size child restraint system use" paragraph).

All restraint devices must bear the type-approval data, together with the control mark, on a label solidly fixed to the child
restraint system which must never be removed.
Lineaccessori MOPAR® includes child restraint systems for each weight group. These devices are recommended since they
have been specifically tried with Fiat cars.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
87
WARNING For correct installation on the car, some universal child restraint systems require an accessory (base) sold separately
by the restraint system's producer. Therefore, FCA advises customers to check that their chosen child restraint system can be
installed on their vehicle by performing a trial installation at the dealer’s premises before purchase.

certain importance, it is recommended
to replace both the child restraint
system and the seat belt to which it
was bound.
GROUP 0 and 0+
Children up to 13 kg must be carried
with a rearward facing child restraint
system of a type shown in fig. 117,
which supports the head and therefore
does not induce stress on the neck in
the event of sudden decelerations.
The child restraint system is held by the
seat belts of the vehicle, as shown in
fig. 117, and must restrain the child in
turn with its own belts.

GROUP 1
Children weighing from 9 to 18 kg may
be transported in forward facing child
restraint systems fig. 118.

F0V0196
GROUP 2
Children from 15 to 25 kg may use
the seat belts of the vehicle directly
fig. 119. In this case, the child restraint
system is used to position the child
correctly with respect to the seat
belts so that the diagonal belt section
crosses the child’s chest and not the
neck, and the lower part is snug on the
pelvis not the abdomen.

GROUP 3
For children between 22 kg and 36 kg,
there are boosters which allow the seat
belt to be worn correctly.
The fig. 120 shows the correct child
positioning on the rear seat. Children
over 1.50 m in height can wear seat
belts like adults.

Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an
accident the child restraint system may
become loose and the child may be
injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint
system for newborns or children, strictly
comply with the instructions provided by
the Manufacturer.
70)
When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or with
the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from
the vehicle. Do not leave it unsecured
inside the passenger compartment. In this
way, in the event of sudden braking or an
accident, it will not cause injuries to the
occupants.
71)
After installing a child restraint system,
do not move the seat: always remove the
child restraint system before making any
adjustment.
INSTALLING AN ISOFIX
CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEM
72) 73) 74) 75)
The rear side seats of the vehicle are
equipped with ISOFIX anchorages, for
fitting child restraint systems quickly,
simply and safely.
The ISOFIX system lets you install
the ISOFIX child restraining system
without using the vehicle seat belts but
connecting them directly to the vehicle
seat with three anchors in the vehicle.
Traditional child restraint systems
can be fitted alongside ISOFIX child
restraint systems on different seats in
the same vehicle.
To install an ISOFIX child restraint
system, attach it to the two metal
anchorages (A) fig. 121 located where
the rear seat cushion meets the
backrest, then fix the upper strap
(available together with the restraint
system) to the dedicated anchorage
(B) located at the bottom behind the
backrest fig. 122.

WARNING The fig. 123 is indicative
and for assembly purposes only. Fit the
child restraint system according to the
instructions, which must be included.
