REAR POCKETS (fig. 16)
(for versions/markets where
applicable
)
The front seats are fitted with a pocket in
the rear of the back rest.
HEADREST ADJUSTMENT
(fig. 15)
To increase passengers’ safety, the head-
rests are adjustable in height.
To adjust, press the button (A) and move
the headrest up or down until it clicks into
place.
IMPORTANTThe configuration of the
headrest cushion may vary depending on
the versions and markets. The purpose of
the illustration is only to show how it is ad-
justed.

Remember that headrests
should be adjusted so that
the nape, and not the neck,
rests on them. Only in this position
do they exert their protective ac-
tion in the event of a crash from
behind.

Remember that headrests
should be adjusted so that
the nape, and not the neck,
rests on them. Only in this position
do they exert their protective ac-
tion in the event of a crash from
behind. Partial extension
For partial extension, proceed as follows:
– tilt the cushion required pulling the han-
dle at the centre of the cushion, then tilt-
ing the actual cushion;
– move the seat belt to one side extend-
ing it correctly without twisting;
– raise the lever retaining the back rest
and tilt it forwards.
To bring the seat back to its
normal position
Proceed as follows:
– move the seat belts to one side ex-
tending them correctly without twisting;
– raise the seat backs, pushing them back-
wards until hearing both clamping devices
click into place;
– set the cushions to the horizontal posi-
tion keeping the centre seat belt raised.
HEADREST ADJUSTMENT
(fig. 24)
The car may be fitted with two headrests
for the side seats and, depending on the trim
level, it may also have a third headrest in
the centre.
To use the headrest, raise it from the (2)
“non use position” and reach the (1) “all
removed” position. To restore the “non use
position”, press button (A-fig. 21) and
push the headrest downwards.
All rear headrests can be removed.
fig. 24

The particular headrest shape interferes in-
tentionally with the rear passenger’s correct
position on the back rest; this forces the pas-
senger to raise the headrest to use it cor-
rectly.
IMPORTANT When using rear seats,
the headrests shall be kept in the “all re-
moved” position.
