2)Make sure to take the key with you once
a door or the tailgate is locked, to prevent
locking the same key inside the vehicle. If
the key has been locked in, it can only be
recovered using the second provided key.
3)If the child lock was engaged and the
previously described locking procedure
carried out, operating the internal opening
handle will not open the door: in this case,
to open the door, the outside handle must
be used. The central locking/unlocking
button is not disabled by the engagement
of the emergency lock.
SEATS
The front seats can be adjusted so as
to ensure maximum comfort for the
occupants.
Driver seat adjustment must also be
carried out remembering that, keeping
the shoulders resting firmly against the
backrest, the wrists must be able to
reach the top of the steering wheel rim.
Additionally, it must be possible to
depress the clutch pedal with the left
foot, for versions with manual
transmission, or fully depress the brake
pedal with the right foot (versions with
automatic transmission, if present).

Check that there are no objects on the
cushion surface, turn the backrests
backwards, insert them under the
backrest and press downwards until
they click. Visually check that the
correct position they had before they
were tipped is restored.
IMPORTANT Always free the seat belt

the seat cushion to allow it to be
repositioned correctly without damage.
WARNING
11)All adjustments must be made with the
car stationary.
12)Once you have released the
adjustment lever, always check that the
seat is locked on the guides by trying to
move it back and forth. If the seat is not
locked into place, it may unexpectedly slide
and cause the driver to lose control of the
car.
13)Make sure the backrests are properly
secured at both sides (not visible "red
notches) to prevent them from moving
forward, in the event of sharp braking, with
possible impact with of the passengers.
14)People who can't feel skin pain due to
advanced age, chronic diseases, diabetes,
spine damage, medication, alcohol,
exhaustion, or other physical conditions,
must be careful when using the seat
heater. It could cause burns even at a low
temperature, especially when used for long
periods of time.15)Do not place objects on the seat or on
the backrest that may isolate the heat,
such as a cover or a pillow. It may cause
the seat heating device to overheat. Sitting
on an overheated seat may cause severe
burns due to the increase in temperature of
the seat surface.
IMPORTANT
4)The fabric upholstery of the seats has
been designed to withstand long-term wear
deriving from normal use of the car. Some
precautions are however required. Avoid
prolonged and/or excessive rubbing
against clothing accessories such as metal
buckles and Velcro strips which, by
applying a high pressure on the fabric in a
small area, could cause it to break, thereby
damaging the upholstery.
