SIDE BAGS - WINDOW
BAGS
(where provided)
To increase protection of occupants
in the event of side collision, the car
is equipped with side bags for pelvis,
chest and shoulder protection for the
driver and the passenger and airbags
protecting the head. Non-activation of
side bags in other types of collisions
(front collisions, rear shunts, roll-overs,
etc.) is not a system malfunction.
Front side airbags (Side bags)
These comprise two types of bags
located in the front seat backrests
fig. 89 which protect the pelvis, chest
and shoulder area of the occupants in
the event of a side collision of medium-
high severity.

Window bags
These comprise two window bags
located behind the side lining of the
roof and covered by special trim fig. 90.
They are designed to protect the head
of front and rear side occupants in the
event of side collisions, thanks to their
wide inflation surface.

Important notes
In the event of a side impact, the
system provides best protection if the
passenger sits on the seat in a correct
position, thus allowing correct window
bag deployment.
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.
A small amount of dust will be released
when the airbags are deployed.
The dust is not harmful and does
not indicate the beginning of a fire.
Furthermore, the surface of the
deployed bag and the interior of the car
may be covered by a dusty residue:
this may irritate skin and eyes. Wash
with neutral soap and water in the
event of exposure.
Every control, repair and replacement
operation concerning the airbags
must only be carried out at an Abarth
Dealership. If the car is scrapped, have
the system deactivated at an Abarth
Dealership.
Pretensioners, front airbags and side
bags are deployed according to
different logics on the basis of the type
of crash. Failure to activate one or
more of the devices does not indicate a
system malfunction.
Should an accident occur in which any
of the safety devices are activated, take
the car to an Abarth Dealership to have
the activated devices replaced and to
have the whole system checked.

WARNING
105)
If when turning the key to MAR the
warning light does not turn on or
stays on whilst driving, a failure may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In this
case the airbags or pretensioners may not
be deployed in an impact or, in a lower
number of cases, they may be deployed
accidentally. Before driving off, contact
