Fiat Ducato 2017 - STARTING THE ENGINE

107) Airbags may be deployed if another
vehicle crashes into yours if the key is
inserted and on, even if the engine is not
running and your vehicle is standing.
Therefore, even if the car is stationary,
when an active front passenger airbag is
fitted, DO NOT install rear facing child
restraint systems on the front passenger
seat. Deployment of the airbag following an
impact could cause fatal injuries to the
child. 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. Also remember that, if
the key is turned to STOP, none of the
safety devices (airbags or pretensioners)
will be deployed in the event of collision.
Non-deployment in such cases does
not indicate a system malfunction.
108) Have the airbag system checked by a
Fiat Dealership if the car was stolen, if
theft was attempted, or if the car was
subjected to vandalism or flooding.
109) By turning the ignition key to MAR
position, the LED on the
button located
on the dashboard lights up (the time it
stays lit up can vary depending on the
market), to check that the button LED is
working correctly.
110) Do not wash the seats with water or
pressurised steam (wash by hand or at
automatic seat washing stations).
111) The front airbag is designed to be
deployed for impacts of a greater intensity
than for the pretensioners. For impacts
whose intensity falls between the two
levels, normally, only the pretensioners will
be activated.
112) Do not affix rigid objects to the
garment hooks or support handles.
113) The airbag does not replace seat
belts but increases their efficiency.
Furthermore, since front airbags are not
deployed in low-speed frontal impacts,
side impacts, rear shunts or roll-overs, the
passengers are protected only by the
seat belts which must therefore be
fastened at all times.
114) In some versions, in the event of a
LED
OFF failure (located on the
dashboard trim), the
warning light on
the instrument panel turns on and the
passenger side bags are deactivated. In
some versions, in the event of a LED
ON failure (located on the dashboard
trim), the
light on the console turns on.
