The fabric upholstery of your car has
been designed to withstand wear deriving
from common use of the car.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.Once you have released the adjustment
lever, always check that the seat is locked
on the guides by trying to move it back
and for th. If the seat is not locked into place, it
may unexpectedly slide and cause the driver

HEAD RESTRAINTSFRONT
These are height-adjustable and lock into place
automatically.
❒Upward adjustment: lift the head restraint until it
clicks into place.
❒Downward adjustment: press button A fig. 18 and
lower the head restraint.
On some versions the front head restraints are
equipped with an “Anti-Whiplash” device, which
reduces the distance between head and head
restraint in the event of a rear shunt, thus mitigating
the “whiplash” effect.
The “Anti-Whiplash” type front head restraints 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.
