replaced by a workshop.  
In the event of a head-on, rear-end or  
side-on collision of a certain severity,  
the front seat belts and the outer rear  
seat belts are tightened by seat belt  
pretensioners.  
Seat belts  
Warning  
Incorrect handling (e.g. removal or  
fitting of seat belts) can trigger the belt  
pretensioners.  
Note  
Make sure that the seat belts are neither  
damaged by shoes or sharp-edged  
objects nor trapped. Prevent dirt from  
getting into the seat belt retractors.  
Note  
Use the belt buckle intended for the  
respective seat belt when fastening in  
order to ensure proper functionality.  
The deployment of the belt pretensioners  
is indicated by continuous illumination of  
the control indicator.

Seat Belt Reminder  
The seat belts are locked during heavy  
acceleration or deceleration of the  
vehicle, holding the occupants in the seat  
position. Therefore the risk of injury is  
considerably reduced.

as low as possible across the pelvis to  
prevent pressure on the abdomen.  
Airbag system  
Warning  
The airbag system consists of a number  
of individual systems depending on the  
scope of equipment.  
When triggered, the airbags inflate within  
milliseconds. They also deflate so quickly  
that it is often unnoticeable during the  
collision.  
Keep the area in which the airbag  
inflates clear of obstructions.  
Note  
The airbag systems and belt pretensioner  
control electronics are located in the  
centre console. 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 workshop.  
Each airbag is triggered only once.  
Have deployed airbags replaced by  
a workshop. 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.  
Do not make any modifications to the  
airbag system as this will invalidate the  
vehicle operating permit.

Front Airbag System  
The front airbag system consists of one  
airbag in the steering wheel and one  
on the cluster on the front passenger  
side. These can be identified by the word  
AIRBAG.  
The front airbag system is triggered in  
the event of a front-end impact of a  
certain severity. The ignition must be  
switched on.  
The inflated airbags cushion the impact,  
thereby reducing the risk of injury to the  
upper body and head of the front seat  
occupants considerably.  
Additionally, for safety reasons a forward-  
facing child restraint system must only  
be used subject to the instructions and  
restrictions in the table ðpage26 .  
The airbag label is located on both sides  
of the front passenger sun visor.  
SK: NIKDY nepoužívajte detskú sedačku

Seats, Restraints  
25  
The inflated airbags cushion the impact,  
thereby reducing the risk of injury to the  
upper body and pelvis in the event of a  
side-on collision considerably.  
Note  
Only use protective seat covers that have  
been approved for the vehicle.  
Be careful not to cover the airbags.  
The inflated airbags cushion the impact,  
thereby reducing the risk of injury to the  
head in the event of a side-on impact  
considerably.  
Warning  
Optimum protection is only provided  
when the seat is in the proper position.  
Seat position ðpage17  
Keep the area in which the airbag  
inflates clear of obstructions. Fit the  
seat belt correctly and engage securely.  
Only then is the airbag able to protect.  
Warning  
The hooks on the handles in the roof  
frame are only suitable for hanging up  
light articles of clothing, without coat  
hangers. Do not keep any items in  
these clothes.  
Curtain Airbag System  
The curtain airbag system consists of  
an airbag in the roof frame on each  
side. This can be identified by the word  
AIRBAG on the roof pillars.  
Side Airbag System  
The side airbag system consists of an  
airbag in each front seat backrest.  
This can be identified by the word  
AIRBAG.  
Airbag Deactivation  
The front passenger airbag system must  
be deactivated for child restraint system  
on the passenger seat according to the  
instructions in the table.  
The curtain airbag system is triggered in  
the event of a side-on impact of a certain  
severity. The ignition must be switched  
on.  
The side airbag system is triggered in  
the event of a side impact of a certain  
severity. The ignition must be switched  
on.  
The side airbag and curtain airbag  
systems, the belt pretensioners and all  
driver airbag systems will remain active.  
The front passenger airbag system can  
be deactivated via a key-operated switch  
on the passenger side of the cluster.

Seats, Restraints  
Consult a workshop immediately if  
neither of the two control indicators are  
illuminated.  
Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal injury  
for a person occupying a seat with a  
deactivated front passenger airbag.

Child Restraint Systems  
Danger  
Use the ignition key to choose the  
position:  
Make sure that children below sufficient  
size and weight are protected using a  
suitable child restraint system. Never  
place a child on the lap.  
OFF  
front passenger airbag is  
deactivated and will not inflate  
in the event of a collision.  
Control indicator illuminates  
continuously in the centre  
console  
If the control indicator ON illuminates for  
approx. 60 seconds after the ignition is  
switched on, the front passenger airbag  
system will inflate in the event of a  
collision.  
If the control indicator OFF illuminates  
after the ignition is switched on,  
the front passenger airbag system is  
deactivated. It stays on while the airbag  
is deactivated.  
If both control indicators are illuminated  
at the same time, there is a system  
failure. The status of the system is  
not discernible, therefore no person is  
allowed to occupy the front passenger  
seat. Contact a workshop immediately.  
Danger  
If using a rear-facing child restraint  
system on the front passenger seat, the  
airbag system for the front passenger  
seat must be deactivated. This also  
applies to certain forward-facing child  
restraint systems as indicated in the  
Child Restraints table.

We recommend a child restraint system  
that is tailored specifically to the vehicle.  
For further information, contact your  
workshop.  
Child restraint systems can be fastened  
with:  
ISOFIX brackets are indicated by a label  
on the backrest. To get access to the  
ISOFIX brackets, first pull the zip.  
An i-Size child restraint system is an  
universal ISOFIX child restraint system  
according to UN Regulation No. 129.  
All i-Size child restraint systems can be  
used on any vehicle seat suitable for  
i-Size, child restraint installation table  
ðpage30 .  
When fastening ISOFIX child restraint  
systems on adjustable passenger seats,  
first incline the backrest as far as  
necessary backwards in order to get  
access to the ISOFIX brackets.  
After the proper fastening of the  
ISOFIX child restraint system, incline the  
backrest forward again.  
Three-point seat belt  
ISOFIX brackets  
Top-tether anchors  
In case of any interference of the child  
restraint system with the vehicle seat  
head restraint, adjust or remove the  
corresponding head restraint ðpage16 .  
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. The given restrictions in the  
table refer to a test body, which is the  
maximum envelope of all existing child  
restraint systems. Make sure that the  
front seats do not interfere with the used  
child restraint system.  
Three-point seat belt  
Child restraint systems can be fastened  
by using a three-point seat belt. After  
fastening the child restraint system the  
seat belt must be tightened ðpage30 .  
"ISOFIX" Brackets  
Always comply with local or national  
regulations. In some countries, the use  
of child restraint systems is forbidden on  
certain seats.  
Only drive with the driver seat correctly  
adjusted ðpage17 .  
Either a top-tether strap or a support leg  
must be used in addition to the ISOFIX  
brackets.  
i-Size child seats and vehicle seats with  
i-Size approval are marked with i-Size  
symbol, see illustration.  
Danger  
Extreme Hazard!  
Do not use a rearward facing child  
restraint on a seat protected by an  
airbag in front of it.  
Fasten vehicle-approved ISOFIX child  
restraint systems to the ISOFIX brackets.  
Specific vehicle ISOFIX child restraint  
system positions are marked in the child  
restraints table.  
28  
Seats, Restraints  
Do not use forward facing child restraint  
system at all seats when child's weight is  
below 13 kg or child's size is less than 76  
cm and up to the age of 15 months.  
Suitable are child restraint systems that  
comply with valid UN ECE regulations.  
Check local laws and regulations for  
mandatory use of child restraint systems.  
The following child restraints are  
recommended for the following weight  
classes:  
Bought in Stellantis & You, Sales and  
Services.  
Top-tether anchors  
We recommend using the child seat  
with the backrest.  
If the backrest is removed for a child  
over 138 cm, the secure guard must  
also be removed.  
Ensure that the child restraint system to  
be installed is compatible with the vehicle  
type.  
Child seat at the front: Adjust the  
front passenger seat to the highest and  
fully back longitudinal position with the  
backrest straightened.  
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.  
In case of any interference of the  
child restraint system with the vehicle  
seat head rest, adjust or remove the  
corresponding vehicle seat head rest.  
Please follow the child restraint  
manufacturer’s instructions to install the  
corresponding child restraints in the  
vehicle.

Selecting The Right System  
The rear seats are the most convenient  
location to fasten a child restraint system.  
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
