WARNING
107) The pretensioner may be used
only once. After it is triggered,
have it replaced at a Fiat
Dealership.
108) The belt must not be twisted.
The upper part must pass over
the shoulder and cross the chest
diagonally. The lower part must
adhere to the pelvis (as shown in
fig. 157) rather than the abdomen
of the passenger. Never use
devices (clips, clamps, etc.) that
hold the seat belt away from your
body.
109) For maximum protection, keep
the backrest upright, lean back
into it and make sure the seat belt
fits closely across your chest
and pelvis. Always fasten the seat
belts on both the front and the
rear seats! Travelling without
wearing seat belts will increase
the risk of serious injury and even
death in the event of an accident.
110) Removing or otherwise
tampering with seat belt and
pretensioner components is
strictly prohibited. Any operations
on these components must be
performed by qualified and
authorised technicians. Always go
to a Fiat Dealership.
111) If the belt has been subjected
to a high level of stress, for
example after an accident, it must
be completely replaced together
with the attachments, attachment
fixing screws and the
pretensioner. In fact, even if the
belt has no visible defects, it could
have lost its resilience.
112) Each seat belt must be used by
only one person. Never travel with
a child sitting on the passenger's
lap and a single belt to protect
them both fig. 158. In general, do
not place any objects between the
person and the belt.
IMPORTANT
26) Operations which lead to
impacts, vibrations or localised
heating (over 100°C for a
maximum of six hours) in the area
around the pretensioners may
damage or accidentally deploy
them. Contact a Fiat Dealership
should intervention be necessary
on these components.
