HEADLIGHTSHEADLIGHT BEAM AIMING
The correct aiming of the headlights is important for the
comfort and safety of not only the driver but all other road
users. This is also covered by a specific rule of the high-
way code. The headlights must be correctly aimed to get
the best visibility conditions for all drivers while travel-
ling with headlights on. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have
the headlights properly adjusted. Check headlight beam
aiming every time the load or its distribution change.
SLANT COMPENSATION fig. 83
The car is fitted with electric adjustment of the beams, op-
erating with ignition key at MAR and dipped headlights on.
When the car is loaded, it slopes backwards. This means
the headlight beam rises.
In this case, repeat beams aiming by buttons + and −.The display provides a visual indication of the positions
during adjustment.
Correct positions depending on the load
Position 0 – one or two passengers on front seats.
Position 1 – four passengers.
Position 2 – four passengers + load in the boot.
Position 3 – driver + maximum permitted load in the boot.
