adjustable and can be raised and lowered
to the required position.
To adjust, slightly raise the armrest, then

TILTING THE BACK REST
(fig. 12)
To gain access to the rear seats, pull the
handle (E), the back rest folds and the
seat is free to run forwards.
A recovery mechanism with memory
makes it possible to take the seat back to
its previous position.
Once the seat back has been returned to
the travelling condition, make sure that it
is correctly clamped, checking that the
“red band” on the upper part of the han-
dle (E) is concealed. In fact, this “red
band” indicates that the seat back is not
clamped.
Also check that the seat is firmly locked
on the runners, trying to move it to and
from.

ABROAD
(fig. 152)
The dipped-beam headlights are adjusted
for circulation in the country in which the ve-
hicle is marketed. In countries with opposite
circulation, to avoid glaring oncoming vehi-
cles it is necessary to cover the area of the
headlights as shown below; this is done us-
ing non-transparent sticker tape.
The illustration refers to passing from right-
hand drive to left-hand drive.

IMPORTANTThe compensation for tilt of
Xenon headlights (if fitted) is carried out au-
tomatically and therefore in the versions fitted
with this type of headlights the aiming de-
vice is not present (fig. 151).
