2017 FIAT DUCATO BASE CAMPER steering wheel adjustment

9)Before setting off after parking or before
moving the vehicle in any way, ensure
the footboard is fully stowed away.
Because the movement of the footboard is
controlled by that of the sliding side door,
incomplete stowing of the footboard or
non-closure of the rear doors is indicated
by the lighting of a warning light
on
the instrument panel.
10)This spring loaded system has
activation forces that were designed for
optimum comfort. Accidental knocks or a
strong gust of wind may release the
springs and let the doors close
spontaneously.
11)With the doors opened to 180 degrees,
no locking system is effective. Do not use
this opening with the vehicle parked on
a gradient or when it is windy.
12)It is forbidden to drive the vehicle with
the footboard open.
13)Do not use the retracted footboard for
getting up or down the load compartment.
14)Make sure that the footboard is suitably
locked by the provided retaining systems
before, after and during its use. An
incomplete opening or closing might cause
an improper movement of the footboard
with risks arising for the operator and
external users.
15)The footboard lightly projects from the
vehicle even if retracted; therefore, when
rear parking sensors are provided, their
operating range is lightly reduced.
WARNING
2)The footboard presence may reduce the
ramp approach angles; it is therefore
recommended, in case of a very steep
ramp, to be very careful in order not to
damage the footboard.

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE

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
The steering wheel position can be
adjusted axially.
To carry out the adjustment, proceed as
follows:
release the lever fig. 33 by pulling it
towards the steering wheel (position 2);
adjust the steering wheel;
block the lever by pushing it
forwards (position 1).

WARNING
26)Any steering wheel position adjustment
should only be carried out with the vehicle
stationary and the engine turned off.
27)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-market operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device). This could badly affect
performance and safety, invalidate the
warranty and also result in the non-
compliance of the vehicle with approval
requirements.
