PRECAUTIONS FOR SITTING

CORRECTLY

(for the 1.0 FireFly Hybrid version)

HEAD RESTRAINTS

11) If passengers are seating in the rear

seats, remove all potentially dangerous

objects which may cause injuries in the

event of an accident.

12) When adjusting the left front seat, the

auxiliary battery may become available.

Take care not rest your feet on the auxiliary

battery cover to avoid damaging it and to

avoid trapping your feet between the seat

and the battery.

13) 14)

FRONT HEAD

RESTRAINTS

Upwards adjustment: raise the head

restraint until it clicks into place.

Downward adjustment: press button

(A) fig. 14 and lower the head restraint.

IMPORTANT

2) The fabric upholstery of the seats has

been designed to withstand long-term

wear deriving from normal use of the car.

Some precautions are however required.

Avoid prolonged and/or excessive rubbing

against clothing accessories such as

metal buckles and Velcro strips which, by

applying a high pressure on the fabric in a

small area, could cause it to break, thereby

damaging the upholstery.

13

F1D0829

The auxiliary lithium battery (A) fig. 13

for the hybrid System is installed under

the left front seat.

4)

14

F1D0011

3) Before tilting the backrest, remove any

objects on the seat cushion.

4) Do not rest your feet on the protective

cover of the auxiliary lithium battery under

the front left seat to avoid damaging the

cover or battery.

“Anti-Whiplash” device

The head restraints are equipped with

an “Anti-Whiplash” device, which

reduces the distance between head

and head restraint in the event of a rear

impact, thus mitigating the "whiplash"

effect.

WARNING

8) All adjustments must be made with the

car stationary.

9) If a side bag is fitted, it is dangerous

to use seat covers not available from

Lineaccessori MOPAR®.

The head restraint may move when the

backrest is pressed by the occupant’s

torso or hand: this behaviour is caused

by the system and should not be

considered a malfunction.

10) After releasing the adjustment lever,

always check that the seat is locked on the

guides by trying to move it back and forth.

If the seat is not locked into place, it may

unexpectedly slide and cause the driver to

lose control of the car.

16

REAR HEAD RESTRAINTS

(for versions/markets where provided)

Upwards adjustment: raise the head

restraint until it clicks into place.

WARNING

13) All adjustments must be made with

the car stationary. Head restraints must be

adjusted so that the head, rather than the

neck, rests on them. Only in this case they

can protect your head correctly.

14) To make the best use of the head

restraint's protective action, adjust the

backrest so that you are sitting upright and

keep your head as close as possible to the

head restraint.

15) All adjustments must be carried out

only with the car stationary and engine off.

16) It is absolutely forbidden to carry

out any after-market operation involving

steering system or steering column

modifications (e.g.: installation of

anti-theft device) that could badly affect

performance and safety, invalidate

the warranty and also result in non-

compliance of the car with type-approval

requirements.

Downward adjustment: press button

LPG tank certification

The LPG tank is certified in accordance

with the regulations in force. In Italy,

the tank has a life of 10 years starting

from the car registration date. If the

vehicle has been registered in a country

other than Italy, the duration and the

testing/inspection procedures of the

LPG tank can vary depending on the

national laws of that country. In all

case, when the time limit for your

country has expired, go to a Fiat

REFILLING

14) The system operates at temperatures

ranging between -20°C and 100°C.

15) If the fuel runs out while running

on LPG, the car switches to petrol

automatically and all the bars of the digital

indicator on the display turn off. The

display remains in this state until the next

LPG refuelling.

16) The car is equipped with a gaseous

LPG injection system designed specifically

for it: it is therefore absolutely forbidden

to alter the configuration of the system

or its components. The use of other

components or materials could cause

malfunctions and lead to a reduction in

safety; therefore, in the case of problems,

contact a Fiat Dealership. To prevent

damage to the gas system parts when

towing or raising the car, follow the

instructions in the "Towing the car"

chapter of the Owner Handbook.

17) When painting in an oven, the LPG

tank must be removed from the car and

later refitted by a Fiat Dealership. Although

the LPG system has numerous safety

features, it is advisable to proceed as

follows every time the car is not in use for

a long period or moved in an emergency

as a result of a breakdown or accident:

unscrew the fastening devices (A) fig. 57,

then remove the cover (B). Close the LPG
