ODDMENTS COMPARTMENT (fig. 18-19)
On the sides of the boot there are two re-
cesses closed by a lid.
To open the cover, press button (A) and
turn it downwards. As optional for ver-
sions/markets where applicable, the odd-
ment compartment on the left-hand side can
be provided with CD-Changer.
When using the boot, nev-
er exceed the maximum
permissible loads given in the
“Technical specifications” chapter.
Also make sure that the items con-
tained in the boot are firmly se-
cured, to prevent them being
thrown forward and harming the
passengers in the event of abrupt
braking.
WARNING
Heavy luggage without
restraints could cause se-
rious harm to the passengers in an
accident.
WARNING
If you want to carry fuel in
a reserve can, you should
comply with legal regulations, on-
ly using a certified can suitably fas-
tened to the load retainer rings at
the corner of the boot. However,
remember that this increases the
risk of fire in the event of an acci-
dent.

AUTOMATIC REAR
GEOMETRY CONTROL(optional for versions/markets
where applicable)
The car is fitted with a semi-bearing hy-
dropneumatic system with built-in self-level-
ling functions (due to an active element in-
corporated in the rear shock absorbers) and
damping, applied to the rear suspensions in-
stead of conventional shock absorbers.
When the car is loaded with passengers
and luggage, the rear geometry lowers in
relation to the rigidity of the spring system
and the load. However, as soon as the car
moves off the system utilises the move-
ments induced on the wheels by the rough-
ness of the road surface to increase its bear-
ing capacity and higher the body up to a
pre-established position that will be kept un-
der any load condition.
SOUND SYSTEM(optional for versions/markets
where applicable)
The fixed sound system, with cassette
player (radio with cassette player) or CD
player with parametric sound equalizer
(radio with CD player) has been designed
to suit the specific characteristics of the
passenger compartment, with a
personalised design that matches the
style of the dashboard. The sound system
instructions for use are described in the
attached supplement.The distance that must be covered to reach
the levelling condition is approx. 2,000 me-
tres and it may vary depending on the road
bottom.
When using the boot, nev-
er exceed the maximum
permissible loads given in the
“Technical specifications” chapter.
The load carried and its arrange-
ment in the boot modify road hold-
ing of the car in any case even if
the geometry is kept constant by
the automatic device.
