SAFETY

ing the inflation phase.
WARNING
Never lean your head, arms
or elbows out of the window.
WARNING
GENERAL WARNINGS
If when turning the key to
MAR the warning light
¬
does not turn on or if it stays on when
travelling (together with the message
on the multifunction display, for ver-
sions/markets, where provided), there
could be a failure in the safety sys-
tems; in this event, airbags or pre-
tensioners may not trigger in case of
impact or, in a minor number of cas-
es, they could trigger accidentally.
Contact a Fiat Dealership immedi-
ately to have the system checked.
WARNING
Do not cover the backrest of
front and rear seats with
trims or covers that are not suitable
to be used with side bags.
WARNING
Never travel with objects on
your lap, in front of your
chest or with a pipe, pencil, etc. be-
tween your lips; serious injury may re-
sult in the event of the airbag being
triggered.
WARNING
If the key is turned to MAR,
even if the engine is switched
off, airbags may be deployed when
the car is stationary and hit by an-
other vehicle. For this reason, children
must never occupy the front seat,
even if the car is not moving. Con-
versely, remember that when the key
is inserted in the STOP position, no
safety device (air bag or pretension-
ers) will activate following an impact;
non-activation of these devices in such
cases cannot therefore be considered
an indicator of system malfunction.
