GENERAL WARNINGS
The front airbags may be deployed if
the vehicle is subject to heavy
knocks or accidents involving the
underbody area, such as for example
violent impacts against steps, kerbs
or low obstacles, vehicle falling into
big pot holes or depressions in the
road. A small amount of dust will be
released when the airbags are
deployed. This 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 vehicle may be covered with a
dusty residue: this may irritate your
skin and eyes. Wash with mild soap
and water in the event of exposure.
Should an accident occur in which
any of the safety devices are
activated, contact a Fiat Dealership
to have the activated devices
replaced and to have the whole
system checked.

Every control, repair and
replacement operation concerning
the airbags must only be carried out
at a Fiat Dealership. If you are having
the vehicle scrapped, have the airbag
system deactivated at a Fiat
Dealership first. If the vehicle
changes ownership, the new owner
must be informed of the method of
using air bags and the above
warnings and also be given this
“Owner Handbook”. Pretensioners
and/or front airbags are deployed
differently on the basis of the type of
collision. Non-deployment of one or
more of the devices does not
therefore indicate a system
malfunction.
If the
û
warning light
stays on when driving
(together with a message on
the display on some versions),
there could be a failure in the
restraint systems. If this is the
case, the airbags or
pretensioners may not trigger
in the event of an accident or,
in a lesser number of cases,
they may be activated
incorrectly. Before proceeding,
contact a Fiat Dealership
immediately to have the
system checked.
