SBR SYSTEM
The vehicle is equipped with the SBR (Seat Belt Reminder)
system, which warns the driver (on all versions) and the
front passenger (on Doblò/Doblò Combi versions) if their
seat belt is not fastened, as follows:
❒ warning light < comes on permanently and the buzzer
sounds continuously for the first six seconds;
❒ warning light < flashes and the beeper sounds inter-
mittently for the next 90 seconds.
For permanent deactivation, contact a Fiat Dealership.
The SBR system can also be reactivated through the set-
up menu.
PRETENSIONERS
To increase the protective efficiency of the front seat belts,
the vehicle is fitted with pretensioners. These devices, in
the event of a violent head-on crash or side impact, rewind
the seat belts a few centimetres. In this way, they ensure
that the belts fit tightly to the wearer before the restraining
action begins.
The seat belt reel locks to indicate that the pretensioner
has cut in; the seat belt cannot be drawn back up even
when guided manually.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest degree of protection
from the action of the pretensioning device, wear the seat
belt so it fits snugly over the chest and hips.
A small amount of smoke may be produced when the pre-
tensioners cut in. This smoke is not toxic and does not in-
dicate a fire.
The pretensioner does not require any maintenance or lu-
brication. Anything that modifies its original conditions in-
validates its efficiency. If, due to unusual natural events
(floods, sea storms, etc.), the device has been affected by
water and mud, it absolutely must be replaced.
