All adjustments must be made with the car stationary.
Lengthwise adjustment
Lift the lever A fig. 20 and push the seat forwards or backwards: in
driving position your arms should rest on the rim of the steering
wheel.
After releasing 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.

Move lever B fig. 20 up or down until the desired height is achieved.
IMPORTANT Carry out the adjustment whilst seated in the driver's seat.
Backrest angle adjustment
Turn knob C fig. 20 until the desired position is reached.
For maximum safety, keep the back of your seat
upright, lean back into it and make sure the seat belt
fits closely across your chest and pelvis.

HEAD RESTRAINTSFRONTHead restraints are adjustable in height and they lock automatically
into the desired position:
❒upwards adjustment: raise the head restraint until it clicks into place;
❒downwards adjustment: press button A fig. 24 and lower the head
restraint.
Head restraints must be adjusted so that the head,
rather than the neck, rests on them. Only in this case
can they protect your head correctly.
To remove the head restraints:
❒raise the head restraints to their maximum height;
❒press buttons A and B fig. 24, then remove the head restraints by
pulling them upwards.
“Anti-Whiplash” device
The head restraints are equipped with an “Anti-Whiplash” device,
which reduces the distance between head and head restraint in the
event of a rear impact, thus mitigating the “whiplash” effect.
The head restraint may move when the backrest is pressed by the
occupant's torso or hand: this behaviour is caused by the system and
should not be considered a malfunction.
