HEADLAMP ALIGNMENT CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition key in the
MAR position and the dipped headlights on.
Headlight alignment adjustment
Press the
orbuttons to adjust fig. 69. The
instrument panel display shows the position in
relation to the adjustment set.
Position 0 - one or two persons on the front seats
Position1-4persons
Position2-4persons + load in the luggage
compartment
Position 3 - driver + maximum admissible load all
stored in the luggage compartment.
IMPORTANT Check alignment every time the
load carried changes.IMPORTANT If the car is equipped with (Xenon)
gas discharge headlights, the headlight alignment
is controlled electronically, as a consequence the
andbuttons are not present.
FOG LIGHT ALIGNMENT

headlights properly adjusted.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
Dipped headlights are adjusted to drive in the
country where the vehicle was originally
purchased. When travelling in countries with
opposite driving direction, to avoid dazzling the
drivers on the other side of the road, you need
to cover areas of the headlight according to the
Highway code of the country you are travelling in.

Electrical devices
Only use electrical devices for the amount of time
needed. The heated rear window, additional
headlights, windscreen wipers and heater fan need
a considerable amount of energy, therefore
increasing fuel consumption (by up to 25% in the
urban cycle).
Climate control system
The use of the climate control system leads to
higher fuel consumption. If the temperature
outside permits, try to use ventilation only.
Devices for aerodynamic control
The use of non-certified devices for aerodynamic
control may adversely affect air drag and fuel
consumption.
DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine with the car at a
standstill or at idle or high speed: under these
conditions the engine warms up much more
slowly, increasing consumption and emissions. It is
therefore advisable to move off immediately,
slowly, avoiding high speeds: in this way
the engine will warm up more quickly.

SAVING FUEL
Here are some suggestions which can help you to
save fuel and lower harmful emissions.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out in
accordance with the “Scheduled Servicing Plan”.
Tyres
Check the tyre pressure at least once every 4
weeks: if the pressure is too low, consumption
levels increase as resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight
of the car and its arrangement greatly affect fuel
consumption and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof
after use. These accessories lower aerodynamic
penetration and adversely affect consumption
levels. When transporting particularly large
objects, use a trailer if possible.
