LENGTHWISE ADJUSTMENT
(fig. 12)
Raise the lever (A) and push the seat
backwards or forwards; in the driving posi-
tion the arms should be slightly flexed and
the hands should rest on the rim of the steer-
ing wheel.
DRIVER’S SEAT HEIGHT
ADJUSTMENT
(fig. 12)
To raise the seat, pull the lever (B) up-
wards, then work the lever (up and down)
until reaching the required height, then re-
lease it. To lower the seat, push the lever
(B) downwards then work the lever (up and
down) until reaching the required height.
IMPORTANTAdjustment must be car-
ried out only seated in the driver’s seat.
BACK REST ANGLE
ADJUSTMENT
(fig. 12)
Turn the knob (C) until reaching the posi-
tion required.
TILTING THE BACK REST
(fig. 12)
To gain access to the rear seats, pull the
handle (E), the back rest folds and the seat
is free to run forwards.
A recovery mechanism with memory
makes it possible to take the seat back to
its previous position.
Once the seat back has been returned to
the travelling condition, make sure that it
is correctly clamped, checking that the “red
band” on the upper part of the handle (E)
is concealed. In fact, this “red band” indi-
cates that the seat back is not camped.
Also check that the seat is firmly locked on
the runners, trying to move it to and from.
DRIVER’S SEAT LUMBAR
ADJUSTMENT
(fig. 12)
Turn the knob (D) until obtaining the most
comfortable position.
After releasing the adjust-
ment lever, always check
that the seat is locked on the run-
ners, trying to move it to and from.
The lack of this clamping action
could cause the seat to move un-
expectedly and cause loss of ve-
hicle control.
