HEADLIGHTSLIGHT BEAM DIRECTION
The correct direction of the headlights is essential
for the comfort and safety of the driver and other
road users. The headlights must be correctly
directed to ensure the best visibility. Contact a Fiat
Dealership to have the headlights checked and
adjusted.
IMPORTANT When the gas discharge (Xenon)
bulbs (for versions/markets, where provided) are
switched on, normally parabolas and light beam
move vertically for about 2 seconds until headlight
alignment has stabilised.
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition key in the
MAR-ON position and the dipped headlights on.
The car will tilt backwards when it is loaded, raising
the light beam. The beams must therefore be
realigned in this case.
Adjusting headlights alignment
Press buttons A and B fig. 102 on the central trim;
gas discharge headlights (Xenon) are electronically
adjusted and therefore the buttons A and B are not
present.
Press button A to increase the light beam of one
position. Press button B to decrease the light beam
of one position.Displays C in the instrument panel provide a visual
indication of the positions during adjustment.
Correct positions depending on the load
Position 0 -
one or two occupants in the front
seats.
Position 1 -
five people
Position 2
five people with a load in the luggage
compartment
Position 3
driver + maximum permitted load
stowed in the luggage compartment.
IMPORTANT Check the alignment of the light
beams each time the weight of the load transported
changes.
FOG LIGHT ALIGNMENT
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the lights
checked and adjusted, if necessary.

SAFETY
SEAT BELTSUSING THE SEAT BELTS
The seat belt should be worn keeping the torso
straight and rested against the backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the tongue A fig. 117
and insert it into the buckle B, until it clicks into
place.
On removal, if it jams, let it rewind for a short
stretch, then pull it out again without jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press button C. Guide
the seat belt with your hand while it is rewinding,
to prevent it from twisting.Through the reel, the belt automatically adapts to
the body of the passenger wearing it, allowing
freedom of movement.
The reel may lock when the car is parked on a
steep slope: this is perfectly normal. Furthermore,
the reel mechanism locks the belt if it is pulled
sharply or in the event of sudden braking, collisions
and high-speed bends.
The rear seat is fitted with inertia seat belts with
three anchor points and a reel for the side seats
and the middle one.
The rear seat belts must be used as shown in the
diagram in fig. 118.
