This is always the case, even when the vehicle is
being towed.
WARNING

any after-sales operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installing an anti-theft
device) that could badly affect performance and
safety, invalidate the warranty and also result in
the vehicle failing to comply with regulations.
WARNING
If the ignition device is tampered with
(e.g.: attempted theft), have it checked
over by a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
WARNING
Always remove the key from the vehicle
when leaving it in order to prevent
accidental engagement of the control.
Remember to engage the handbrake. Engage

Height adjustment
To raise the seat: whilst sitting, move the lever B
upwards (front part of the seat) or the lever C (rear
part of the seat) and shift your body weight away from
the part of the seat to be raised.
SEATS
Any adjustments should only be carried
out with the vehicle stationary.
WARNING
The fabric covers on your vehicle have
been dimensioned to be resistant to
normal wear and tear. Some precautions
are however needed. Avoid prolonged rubbing
against clothing accessories, such as metal
buckles, bosses, Velcro strips and the like, which
by applying a high pressure on the fabric in
a small area could cause the breakage of some
threads and damage the upholstery.
Lengthwise direction adjustment fig. 26
Lift the lever A and push the seat forwards or
backwards: in driving position your arms should rest on
the rim of the steering wheel.
Once you have released the adjustment
lever, always check that the seat is
locked on the guides by trying to move it back
and forth. If it is not locked, the seat may move
unexpectedly and make you lose control of the
vehicle.
