HEADLIGHTS
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHT BEAM
IMPORTANT Proper adjustment of the headlight beams is of vital
importance for your safety and comfort and also for the other road
users. This is also covered by a specific law. To ensure you and other
drivers have the best visibility conditions when travelling with the
headlights on, the headlights must be set properly.
Contact Fiat Dealership to have the headlights properly adjusted.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHT SLANT
When the car is loaded, it slopes backwards. This means that the
headlight beam rises. In this case, it is necessary to return it to the
correct position.
An electric adjuster (A) is fitted on the instrument panel.
Correct positions as a function of the load
Position 0 - up to three people on the front seats.
Position 1 - up to six people.
Position 2 - six people + max 130 kg load in the boot.
Position 3 - driver + load stowed in the boot up to a maximum of 300 kg.
Only for 4 or 5 seat VAN versions, the max. permissible load is
350 kg.
IMPORTANT To ensure the regulator works properly, make sure the
load in the boot does not exceed the maximum values given in paragraph
“Weights” in section “Technical Specifications”.

SEAT BELT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Always adjust the height of the seat belt to fit the person wearing it. This
precaution could greatly reduce the risk of injury in case of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when the belt passes half way between
the end of the shoulder and the neck.
The seat belt can be adjusted to one of 4 different positions.
To raise the belt
Lift ring (A) to the required position.
To lower
Press knob (B), at the same time moving ring (A) down to the required
position.
Then check that the seat belt is locked by pushing down ring (A) without
pressing knob (B).
WARNINGMake the height adjustment when the car is stationary.
After adjustment, always check that the slider is anchored in one of the positions
provided. To do this, with the button released, exert a further pressure to allow the
anchor device to catch if release did not take place at one of the preset positions.WARNING
