Activating Passenger Airbag on Fiat Panda 319

Model: Fiat Panda 319, MK 3 - Years 2012-2026
Part: Airbag

If you need to transport a child in the front passenger seat, it is advisable to deactivate the corresponding airbag (orange light on the dashboard) as its deployment in the event of a collision could be extremely dangerous; conversely, when transporting an adult in the front passenger seat, you must reactivate the corresponding airbag (orange light off on the dashboard). In previous models, this operation was performed with the ignition key using a specific switch located on the dashboard, but now it is done through the settings menu using the set button and the two arrows located just below the radio; turn on the ignition, press the set button to enter the menu, scroll through the options until you reach the passenger airbag, press set, and then activate or deactivate using the arrows, pressing set for confirmation.
