GENERAL WARNINGSIf you are having the vehicle scrapped, have the air bag sys-
tem deactivated at a Fiat Dealership first. If the vehicle
changes ownership, the new owner must be informed of
the method of use of air bags and the above warnings and
also be given this “Owner’s Handbook”.
IMPORTANT Pretensioners, front airbags and front side
bags are deployed according to different logics on the ba-
sic of the type of collision. Non-deployment of one of the
devices does not necessarily indicate a system malfunction.

jured.
