CHILD RESTRAINTS

correctly. After folding or moving a seat or

rear bench seat, ensure that the seat belt

is positioned and reeled in correctly.

116) The lower part of the strap must be

positioned as low as possible over the

pelvis. The upper part must be positioned

in the hollow of the shoulder. At the front,

adjusting the position of the seat belt may

require the seat height to be adjusted. In

order to be effective, a seat belt must: be

tightened as close to the body as possible;

be pulled in front of you with a smooth

movement, checking that it is not twisted;

must only be used to secure one person;

not show signs of tearing or fraying; not

be changed or modified, in order to avoid

affecting its performance.

CHILD RESTRAINT

SYSTEMS

Children must be seated safely

and comfortably. Depending on the

characteristics of the child restraint

systems used, you are advised to

keep children in rearward-facing

child restraint systems for as long

as possible (at least until 3-4 years

old), since this is the most protected

position in the event of an impact.

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.

119) 120) 121) 122) 123)

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

meters and up to 12 years must be

protected with suitable restraint

systems and be seated on the rear

seats.

117) Use a suitable child seat if the

passenger is less than 12 years old or

shorter than 1.5 metres. Never use the

same seat belt to secure more than one

child. Never carry a child on your lap. For

more information on Child seats, refer to

the "Child restraints" section.

118) In accordance with current safety

regulations, for all work on your vehicle's

seat belts, contact a Fiat Dealership with

the skills and equipment needed. Have

the seat belts checked regularly by a

Fiat Dealership, particularly if the straps

show signs of damage. Clean the seat

belt straps with soapy water or a textile

cleaning product, sold by Fiat Dealership.

According to crash statistics, children

are safer when properly restrained in

the rear seats, rather than in the front.

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.

We recommend a child restraint

system which is tailored specifically to

the vehicle also. For further information,

contact your Fiat Dealership.

In case of any interference of the child

restraint system with vehicle seat

head restraint, adjust or remove the

corresponding head restraint.

When a child restraint system is being

used, pay attention to the following

usage and installation instructions

and also those supplied with the child

restraint system. Make sure that the

front seats do not interfere with the

used child restraint system.

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

Always comply with local or national

regulations. In some countries, the use

of child restraint systems is forbidden

on certain seats.

to get access to the ISOFIX brackets.

After the proper fastening of the ISOFIX

child restraint system, incline the

backrest forward again.

Only drive with the driver seat correctly

adjusted.

WARNING When fitting an ISOFIX child

seat to the left-hand rear seat of the

bench seat, before fitting the seat, first

move the centre rear seat belt towards

the middle of the vehicle, so as to avoid

the seat interfering with the operation of

the seat belt.

Child restraint systems can be fastened

with:

This system prevents the child seat

from tipping forwards in the event of a

front impact.

Either a Top-tether strap or a support

leg must be used in addition to the

ISOFIX brackets when installing forward

or rearward-facing child restraint

system.

This ISOFIX mounting system provides

fast, reliable and safe fitting of the child

seat in the vehicle.

SYSTEMS

or a support leg that rests on the

vehicle floor, compatible with the

approved i-Size seat position

Their role is to prevent the child seat

from tipping forward in the event of a

collision.

These child restraint systems, built and

type-approved according to the i-Size

(ECE R129) standard, ensure better

safety conditions to carry children on

board a vehicle:

NOTE The seats illustrated in fig. 141

and fig. 142 are equipped with

ISOFIX-compliant mountings (for

versions/markets where provided):

the child must be transported

rearward facing until 15 months;

child restraint system protection

is increased in the event of a side

collision;

When a Universal ISOFIX child restraint

system is used, only ECE R44 «ISOFIX

Universal» or ECE R129 «i-Size

Universal» type-approved child restraint

systems can be used (see fig. 140).

The other weight groups are covered

by specific ISOFIX child restraint

systems, which can be used only if

specifically tested for this car (see list of

cars provided with the child restraint

system).

the use of the ISOFIX system is

promoted to avoid faulty installation of

the child restraint system;

efficiency in the choice of the child

restraint system, which isn't made

according to weight any more but

according to the child's height, is

increased;

compatibility between the vehicle

seats and the child restraint systems is

better: the i-Size child restraint systems

can be considered as "Super ISOFIX";

this means that they can be perfectly

fitted in type-approved i-Size seats, but

can also be fitted in ISOFIX (ECE R44)

type-approved seats.

120) SEVERE DANGER When a front

passenger airbag is fitted and activated,

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

In addition to the ISOFIX brackets,

fasten the Top-tether strap to the Top-

tether anchors.

a child restraint system on the rear seat,

which is the most protected position in the

event of a collision.

121) 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 "Airbag" chapter).

127) Fit the child restraint system when

the car is stationary. The child restraint

system is correctly fixed to the brackets

when you hear the click. Follow the

instructions for assembly, disassembly and

positioning that the Manufacturer must

supply with the child restraint system.

122) 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

key-operated switch in the glovebox,

verifying deactivation by checking whether

the OFF

LED has switched on in the

panel located on the ceiling. Move the

passenger's seat as far back as possible

to avoid contact between the child seat

and the dashboard.

123) Do not move the front or rear seat if

a child is seated on it or on the dedicated

child restraint system.

124) Always make sure that the chest

section of the seat belt does not pass

under the arms or behind the back of the

child. In the event of an accident the seat

belt will not be able to secure the child,

with the risk of injury, including fatal injury.

Therefore the child must always wear the

seat belt correctly.

125) Never use the same lower anchorage

to attach more than one child restraint.

126) If a Universal ISOFIX child restraint

system is not fixed to all three anchorages,

it will not be able to protect the child

correctly. In a crash, the child could be

seriously or fatally injured.

114

In Europe the characteristics of child restraint sytems are governed by regulation ECE-R44, which divides them into five weight

groups, and since 2015, by regulation ECE R-129, were child seats are chosen based on the child’s height.

The ECE R-129 regulation 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).

Group 2

Children from 15 to 25 kg may use the

vehicle seat belts directly fig. 148.

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.

The child restraint system is restrained

by the vehicle seat belts, as shown in

SELECTING THE RIGHT

SYSTEM

Do not use forward facing child

restraints system when child's weight is

below 13 kg at all seats.

The rear seats are the most convenient

location to fasten a child restraint

system.

Please follow Child restraint

manufacturers instructions to install

corresponding child restraints in

vehicle.

Children should travel facing rearwards

in the vehicle as long as possible. This

makes sure that the child's backbone,

which is still very weak, is under less

when child’s weight is below 13 kg and

the child is under 15 months old.

Suitable are child restraint systems that

comply with valid UN ECE regulations.

Check local laws and regulations

for mandatory use of child restraint

systems.

For semi-universal or vehicle specific

child restraint system (ISOFIX or belted

child restraint system), see the vehicle

list provided in the user manual of the

child restraint system.

148

JJ000505

Group 3

Ensure that the mounting location of

the child restraint system within the

vehicle is correct, see following table.

Allow children to enter and exit the

vehicle only on the side facing away

from the traffic.

For children between 22 kg and 36 kg,

there are boosters which allow the seat

belt to be worn correctly.

The fig. 149 shows the correct child

positioning on the rear seat.

Ensure that the child restraint system

to be installed is compatible with the

vehicle type.

Children over 1.50 m in height can

wear seat belts like adults.

When the child restraint system is not

in use, secure the seat with a seat belt

or remove it from the vehicle.

Child seat at the front: Adjust the front

passenger seat to the highest and

fully back longitudinal position with the

backrest straightened.

WARNING Do not affix anything on

the child restraint systems and do not

cover them with any other materials. A

child restraint system which has been

subjected to stress in an accident must

be replaced.

Child seat at the rear: Move the

vehicle's front seat forward and

straighten the backrest so that the legs

of the child in the "forward facing” or

the "rearward facing" child seat do not

touch the vehicle's front seat.

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.

Forward facing

Check that the backrest of the

forward-facing child seat is as close as

possible to the backrest of the vehicle's

rear seat, and ideally in contact with it.

WARNING A child seat with a support

leg must never be installed on the

centre rear passenger seat.

129) When the child restraint system is

not used, secure it with the seat belt or

with the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove

it from the car. 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.

152

attachments. Remove the child restraint

system to adjust the seat position. Install

the child restraint system again once the

seat has been adjusted.

131) To ensure the safety of the child,

the front passenger airbag MUST be

deactivated (for versions/markets where

provided) when a "rearward facing" child

seat is installed on the front passenger

seat. Otherwise, the child risks being

seriously injured or killed in the event of

deployment of the airbag.

132) Vehicles not equipped with a

deactivation/reactivation control Installing a

"rearward facing" child seat on the front

passenger seat is strictly prohibited - risk

of death or serious injury in the event of

airbag deployment!

133) Child restraint anchorages are

designed to withstand only those loads

imposed by correctly fitted child restraints.

Under no circumstances are they to be

used for adult seatbelts, harnesses, or for

attaching other items or equipment to the

vehicle.

MAIN WARNINGS TO

CARRY CHILDREN

SAFELY

Always check that the seat belts do

not rest on the child’s neck.

Always check that the seat belt is

well fastened by pulling on it.

AIR BAG

The airbag system consists of a

number of individual systems

When triggered, the airbags inflate

within milliseconds. They also deflate

so quickly that it is often unnoticeable

during the collision.

Install the child restraint systems

on the rear seat, which is the most

protected position in the event of a

collision.

Keep children in rearward facing

child restraint systems for as long as

possible, until 3–4 years old if possible.

The head restraint can be removed

if needed to install a child restraint

system.

The head restraint must always be

present in the vehicle and fitted if the

seat is used by an adult passenger

or a child sitting in a restraint system

without backrest.

If the passenger's front airbag

is deactivated always check the

dedicated warning light on the trim

located on the dashboard to make sure

that it has actually been deactivated.

Carefully follow the instructions

supplied with the child restraint system.

Keep the instructions in the car along

with the other documents and this

handbook. Do not use second-hand

child seats without instructions.

Only one child is to be strapped

into each restraint system; never carry

two children using one child restraint

system.

While travelling, do not let the child

sit incorrectly or unfasten the belts.

Never allow a child to put the belt's

diagonal section under an arm or

behind their back.

Never carry children on your lap,

even newborns. No-one can hold a

child in the event of a collision

If the car has been involved in a road

accident, replace the child restraint

system with a new one. In addition,

and depending on the type of child

restraint system installed, replace the

ISOFIX anchors or the seat belt with

which the child restraint system was

connected.

belt pretensioner control electronics

are located in the centre console area.

Do not put any magnetic objects in this

area.

WARNING Do not affix any objects

onto the airbag covers and do not

cover them with other materials. Have

damaged covers replaced by a Fiat

Dealership.

WARNING Each airbag is triggered only

once. Have deployed airbags replaced

by a Fiat Dealership. Furthermore, it

may be necessary to have the steering

wheel, the instrument panel, parts of

the panelling, the door seals, handles

and the seats replaced.

WARNING Do not make any

modifications to the airbag system as

this will invalidate the vehicle operating

permit.

you can reach and manoeuvre the steering

wheel comfortably with your arms slightly

bent being as far away as possible from

the steering wheel. Being too close to

the steering wheel when the airbag is

deployed may cause serious injury.

IMPORTANT

139) When there is an active passenger

airbag, DO NOT install rearward facing

child restraint systems on the front seat.

Deployment of the airbag in a crash could

cause fatal injuries to the child regardless

of the severity of the collision. Therefore,

always deactivate the passenger side

airbag when a rearward facing child

restraint system is installed on the front

passenger seat. The front passenger seat

must also be positioned back as far as

possible in order to prevent the child

restraint system from coming into contact

with the dashboard. Immediately reactivate

the passenger airbag as soon as the child

restraint system has been removed.

140) The front airbags and/or side bags

may be deployed if the car is subject to

heavy knocks or accidents involving the

underbody area, such as for example

violent shocks against steps, pavements

or low obstacles, the car falling in big holes

or dips in the road.

134) The airbag system deploys in an

explosive manner, repairs must be

performed by skilled personnel only.

135) Adding accessories that change the

vehicle's frame, bumper system, height,

front end or side sheet metal, may keep

the airbag system from working properly.

The operation of the airbag system can

also be affected by changing any parts

of the front seats, seat belts, airbag

sensing and diagnostic module, steering

wheel, instrument panel, inner door

seals including the speakers, any of the

airbag modules, ceiling or pillar trim, front

sensors, side impact sensors or airbag

wiring.

136) Keep the area in which the airbag

inflates clear of obstructions.

137) Do not apply stickers or other objects

on the steering wheel, on the dashboard

in the passenger side airbag area, on side

upholstery on the roof or on the seats.

Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on

the passenger side of the dashboard since

they could interfere with correct inflation

of the passenger airbag and also cause

serious injury to the passengers.

138) The airbag must be able to inflate

without obstruction in the event of

deployment. It is therefore recommended

not to drive with the body bent forward,

but to sit up resting your back and

shoulders on the backrest of the seat.
