SEAT BELT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
(for versions/markets where provided)
Four different adjustments in height are provided.
To adjust, press button A-fig. 99 and lower or raise the
grip B.
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 ap-
proximately half way between the shoulder and the neck.
See texts and figures in paragraph “General instructions
for using the seat belts” in this section.
Make height adjustment of the seat belts
when the car is stationary.
WARNING
After adjustment, always check that the
slider to which the ring is fastened is locked
in one of the set positions. To do this, with the
button A released, exert a further pressure to al-
low the anchor device to catch if release did not
take place at one of the preset positions.
WARNING
For some versions, front seat belts have just one fixed
anchor point C-fig. 100 on the door post.

PRESETTING FOR MOUNTING
THE “ISOFIX” TYPE CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (for versions/markets where provided)
The car is preset for mounting the Universal Isofix child
restraint system, a new European standardised system for
carrying children safely. Isofix type is an additional option
that does not prevent from using traditional child restraint
systems.
Due to its different anchoring system, the child seat shall
be anchored using the proper metal brackets set between
backrest and cushion or in the rear seat cover, identified
by slots A-fig. 110.
It is possible to mount both the traditional restraint sys-
tem on the left and the Isofix type on the right.Since sizes are different, it is possible to install max. two
Isofix type seats on the rear seats using the proper fas-
tening devices or three traditional child seats secured by
the seat belts. Only traditional child seats can be installed
on front seats.
Use only Isofix type child seats that have been designed,
tested and approved expressly for this car.
Fit the child seat when the car is station-
ary. The child seat is correctly anchored
to the brackets when you hear the click. Follow
the instructions for assembly, disassembly and po-
sitioning that the manufacturer must supply with
the child restraint system seat.

INSTALLING THE TOW HOOK
The towing device should be fastened to the body by spe-
cialised personnel according to any additional and/or in-
tegrative information supplied by the Manufacturer of the
device.
The towing device must meet current regulations with
reference to 94/20/EEC Directive and subsequent amend-
ments.
For any version the towing device used must match the
towable weight of the car on which it is to be installed.
For the electric connection a standard connector should
be used which is generally placed on a special bracket nor-
mally fastened to the towing device, and a special ECU for
external trailer light control must be installed on the car.
For the electric connection, a 7 pin 12V DC connection
is to be used (CUNA/UNI and ISO/DIN Standards). Fol-
low the instructions provided by the car manufacturer
and/or the tow hook manufacturer.
An electric brake (or electric winch) should be supplied
directly by the battery through a cable with a cross sec-
tion of no less than 2.5 mm
2.
IMPORTANT Electric brake or other devices shall be used
with running engine.
In addition to the electrical branches, the car electric sys-
tem can only be connected to the supply cable for an elec-
tric brake and to the cable for an internal light for the trail-
er, not exceeding 15 W.
For connections use the preset control unit with battery
cable not less than 2.5 mm2.
The ABS system with which the vehicle
may be equipped does not control the
braking system of the trailer. Take specific care
when travelling on slippery roads.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should the car
braking system be modified to control the
trailer brake. The trailer braking system must be
fully independent of the car’s hydraulic system.
