The pretensioner does not require any maintenance or greasing.
Anything that modifies its original conditions invalidates its efficiency. If
due to unusual natural events (floods, seas storm, etc.) the device has
been affected by water and mud, it must necessarily be replaced.

The pretensioner can only be used once. After a collision that has triggered it, have
it replaced at a Fiat Dealership. The validity of the device is written on the plate
located in the glove compartment. Contact Fiat Dealership to have pretensioners
replaced as this date approaches.
Operations which lead to knocks, vibrations or localised heating (over 100°C for a maximum of 6
hours) in the area around the pretensioners may cause damage or trigger them. These devices are
not affected by vibrations caused by irregularities of the road surface or low obstacles such as
kerbs, etc. Contact a Fiat Dealership for any assistance.
