FIAT Bravo - Manual (Page 157)

WARNING
If the car has been stolen or in the case
of attempt to steal it, if it has been
subjected to vandalism or floods, have the
airbag system checked by a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
The airbags may also be deployed
when the car is not moving, if the key is
in the ignition and turned to MAR-ON, even
with the engine off, if the car is hit by another
moving vehicle. For this reason, children must
never occupy the front seat, even if the car
is not moving. On the other hand, if the key is
inserted in STOP position, none of the safety
devices (airbags or pretensioners) will be
deployed in the event of impact. Non-
deployment of these devices does not indicate
a system malfunction.
WARNING
When the ignition key is turned to
MAR-ON, the warning light
(with
passenger's front airbag activated) turns on
and flashes for a few seconds to remind you
that the passenger's airbag will be deployed in
a crash, after which it should go off.
WARNING
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
activation levels, it is normal for only the
pretensioners to be activated.
WARNING
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.
