WARNING
16)All adjustments must be made with the
vehicle stationary.
17)After releasing 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.
18)For maximum safety, keep the backrest
upright, lean back into it and make sure
the seat belt fits closely across your chest
and pelvis.
19)Before putting on the seatbelt, ensure
that the armrests are vertical (see
paragraph on "seat belts ”).
20)Before unfastening the belts and
getting out of the vehicle, ensure that the
outer armrest (door side) is fully raised.
21)All adjustments must be made with the
vehicle stationary. In particular, while
turning the seat, take care that it does not
interfere with the handbrake lever.
22)Ensure the seat is locked in driving
position before starting up the vehicle.
23)Do not place heavy loads on the flap
with the vehicle in motion because they
could be thrown against the vehicle
occupants in the event of sudden braking
or impacts, causing severe injury.24)Do not travel with passengers seated in
the 3rd row with the 2nd row bench folded
over. Do not place objects of any type on
the backrest of the 2nd row bench folded
over: in the event of impact or sharp
braking they could be thrown against the
occupants of the vehicle casing serious
injury. For more information, see the
contents of the adhesive plate located
under the bench.
25)When refitting the bench, ensure that it
is correctly locked to the floor guides.
WARNING
3)The fabric upholstery of your vehicle is
designed to withstand the normal wear
and tear of your vehicle for a long time.
You are however recommended to avoid
strong and/or continuous scratching
with clothing accessories such as metal
buckles, studs, Velcro fastenings and the
like, as these items cause stress of the
cover fabric that could lead to yarn
breaking and damage the upholstery.
STEERING WHEEL

adjusted axially.
To carry out the adjustment, proceed as
follows:
release the lever fig. 33 by pulling it

Activation
Turn the ring to the
position fig. 44:
this turns the side lights and the dipped
beam headlights on simultaneously
and automatically depending on the
exterior brightness.
Deactivation
The main beam headlights will go out
followed by the side lights after
approximately 10 seconds, when the
sensor is deactivated.
The sensor is not capable of detecting
the presence of fog. Therefore, in
these circumstances, the lights have to
be turned on manually.WARNING
30)The daytime running lights are an
alternative to the dipped beam headlights
for driving during the daytime in countries
where it is compulsory to have lights on
during the day, and they are also permitted
in those countries where this is not
obligatory. Daytime running lights cannot
replace dipped beam headlights when
driving at night or through tunnels. The use
of daytime running lights is governed by
the highway code of the country in which
you are driving. Comply with legal
requirements.
31)The system is based on recognition via
a camera. Particular environmental
conditions may affect the correct
recognition of traffic conditions. Therefore,
the driver is always responsible for the
correct use of the main beam headlights in
compliance with the laws in force. Rotate
the ring to the
position fig. 39to
disable the automatic function.
32)If the camera loses its position due to a
load variation, the system may not work
temporarily to allow the camera to perform
an auto-calibration.
HEADLIGHTS
LIGHT BEAM ALIGNMENT
The correct alignment of the headlights
is essential for the comfort and safety
of the driver and other road users.
To ensure the best visibility when
travelling with the headlights on, the
headlight alignment must be correct.
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have
the headlights checked and adjusted.
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT
CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition key
in the MAR-ON position and the dipped
beam headlights on.
The vehicle tilts backwards when it is
laden, raising the beam.
The beams must therefore be realigned
in this case.
Headlight alignment adjustment
Press
oron the control panel fig.
45.
The instrument panel display shows the
position in relation to the adjustment
set.
IMPORTANT Check the alignment of
the light beams each time the weight of
the load transported changes.

ADJUSTING THE
HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
The dipped beam headlights are
aligned for operation in the country
where the vehicle was originally
purchased. When in countries where
you drive on the other side of the road,
you need to alter the beam direction
by affixing a specially designed
self-adhesive film in order not to dazzle
the vehicles travelling in the opposite
direction. Such film is provided by
Lineaccessori Fiat and is available at
Fiat Dealerships.
