Fabric upholstery of your car
is purpose-made to withstand
common wear resulting from
normal use of the car. It is
however absolutely necessary to pre-
vent hard and/or prolonged scratch-
ing/scraping caused by clothing acces-
sories like metallic buckles, studs, “Vel-
cro” fixings, etc. that stressing locally
the fabric could break yarns and dam-
age the upholstery as a consequence.
Only make adjustments when
the car is stationary.
Once you have released the
lever, check that the seat is
firmly locked in the runners by
trying to move it back and
forth. Failure to lock the seat in place
could result in the seat moving sud-
denly and the driver losing control of
the car.
SEATS

seat) and push the seat forwards or back-
wards: in driving position the arms should

downwards to achieve the required
height.
IMPORTANT Adjustment must be car-
ried out only seated in the seat.

HEAD RESTRAINTS
FRONT
Head restraints are adjustable in height
and they lock automatically in the required
position.
❒to raise: raise the head restraint until
hearing the locking click.
❒to lower: press button A-fig. 30and
lower the head restraint.
On some versions, the front head re-
straints are equipped with an anti-whiplash
device, which is able to reduce the dis-
tance between the head and head restraint
in the case of rear impact, limiting damage
caused by whiplash.
If the front head restraint is anti-whiplash
type, the head restraint may move if pres-
sure is exercised on the back-rest through
the torso or hand. This behaviour is typ-
ical of the system and should not treated
as a malfunction.REAR
Car is can be equipped with two head
restraints for side seats and, according to
versions, also with a third head restraint
for the central seat.
To lift out head restraint: take it com-
pletely out from the seat back (position of
use) until hearing a click.
To bring it back to the original position
(non-use position): press button
A-fig. 31and lower the head restraint
down into its seat.
IMPORTANT Rear seat passengers shall
always set the head restraints in the po-
sition of use.fig. 30F0Q0655m
Remember that the head re-
straints should be adjusted
to support the back of your head and
not your neck. Only in this position
do they exert their protective action.
WARNING
To optimise head restraint
protective action, adjust the
seat back upright and keep your head
as close as possible to the head re-
straint.

HEADLIGHTS
ADJUSTING
THE HEADLIGHT BEAM
Proper adjustment of the headlight beams
is of vital importance for your safety and
comfort and also for the other road users.
To ensure you and other drivers have the
best visibility conditions when travelling
with the headlights on, the headlights must
be set properly. Contact Fiat Dealership
to have the headlights properly adjusted.
IMPORTANT When turning on gas dis-
charge headlight lamps (for versions/ mar-
kets, where provided), it is normal that
there should be a vertical movement of
lenses, and consequently the same will al-
so happen to the light beam, for the time
required to achieve the correct headlight
trim stabilisation, equal to approx. 2 sec-
onds.
HEADLIGHT AIMING DEVICE
This device can be operated with the ig-
nition key at MARand dipped beams on.
When the car is loaded, it slopes back-
wards. This means that the headlight beam
rises. In this case, it is necessary to return
it to the correct position.

Position 1- five passengers.
Position 2- five passengers + load in the
boot.
Position 3- driver + maximum admitted
load in the boot.
IMPORTANT Check beam aiming every
time the load carried changes.
FOG LIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Contact Fiat Dealership to have the head-
lights properly adjusted.
HEADLIGHT BEAM
ADJUSTMENT ABROAD
The dipped beam headlights are adjusted
for circulation in the country in which the
car is marketed. In countries with oppo-
site circulation, to avoid glaring oncom-
ing vehicles, it is necessary to cover the
areas of the headlight using a special stick-
er tape provided for the purpose and avail-
able at Lineaccessori Fiat. Contact Fiat
Dealership.

When the car is parked on a steep slope
the reel mechanism may block; this is nor-
mal. The reel mechanism prevents the
webbing coming out when it is jerked or
if the car brakes sharply, in a collision or
when cornering at high speed.
The rear seat is fitted with inertial seat
belts with three anchor points and reel for
side and central seats.
SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
The belt should be worn keeping the chest
straight and rested against the seat back.
To fasten seat belts, take the tongue
A-fig. 1and insert it into the buckle B,
until hearing the locking click.
At removal, if it jams, let it rewind for a
short stretch, then pull it out again with-
out jerking.
To unfasten the seat belts, press button
C. Guide the seat belt with your hand
while it is rewinding, to prevent it from
twisting.
Through the reel, the belt automatically
adapts to the body of the passenger wear-
ing it, allowing freedom of movement.
Never press button C-fig. 1
when travelling.
WARNING
Rear seat belts shall be worn as shown in
fig. 2.

IMPORTANT When the seat back is cou-
pled properly, the “red band” B-fig. 3pre-
sent aside lever Adisappears. The “red
band” actually indicates improper seat
back coupling.
IMPORTANT Remember that in the
event of a violent collision, back seat pas-
sengers not wearing seat belts also rep-
resent a serious danger for the front seat
passengers.
fig. 3F0Q0683m
Make sure the seat back is
correctly hooked on both
sides (“red bands” B-fig. 3 not visible)
to prevent seat back being thrown
forwards and injuring passengers
should you brake sharply.
WARNING
IMPORTANT After putting the seats back
to their travelling position, restore the
seat belt position to make them ready for
use.
ADJUSTING THE FRONT SEAT
BELT HEIGHT
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Four different adjustments in height are
provided.
To adjust, press button A-fig. 4and low-
er or raise the grip B.
Always adjust the height of the seat belt
to fit the person wearing it. This precau-
tion could greatly reduce the risk of injury
in case of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when the
belt passes half way between the end of
the shoulder and the neck.

SERIOUS DANGER Should it
be absolutely necessary to
carry a child on the front pas-
senger’s seat with the cradle
seat facing backwards, passen-
ger’s air bags (front and side
bags, for versions/markets, where pro-
vided), shall be deactivated through the
setup menu. Deactivation shall be
checked through the instrument panel
warning light
“. The front passenger’s
seat shall also be adjusted in the most
backward position to prevent any con-
tact between child’s seat and dash-
board.
WARNING
CARRYING CHILDREN
SAFELY
For optimal protection in the event of a
crash, all passengers must be seated and
wearing adequate restraint systems.
This is even more important for children.
This prescription is compulsory in all EC
countries according to EC Directive
2003/20/EC.
Compared with adults, their head is pro-
portionally larger and heavier than the rest
of the body, while the muscles and bone
structure are not completely developed.
Therefore, correct restraint systems are
necessary, other than adult seat belts.
The results of research on the best child
restraint systems are contained in the Eu-
ropean Standard EEC-R44. This Standard
enforces the use of restraint systems clas-
sified in five groups:
Group 0 0-10 kg in weight
Group 0+ 0-13 kg in weight
Group 1 9-18 kg in weight
Group 2 15-25 kg in weight
Group 3 22-36 kg in weightAs it may be noted, the groups overlap
partly and in fact, in commerce it is pos-
sible to find devices that cover more than
one weight group.
All restraint devices must bear the certi-
fication data, together with the control
brand, on a solidly fixed label which must
absolutely never be removed.
Over 1.50 m in height, from the point of
view of restraint systems, children are
considered as adults and wear the seat
belts normally.
Lineaccessori Fiat offers seats for each
weight group, which are the recommend-
ed choice, as they have been designed and
experimented specifically for Fiat cars.With front passenger’s air
bag active do not place cra-
dle child’s seats facing backwards on
the front passenger seat since the air
bag activation could cause serious in-
juries, even mortal regardless of the
seriousness of the crash. You are ad-
vised to carry children always on the
rear seat, as this is the most protect-
ed position in the case of a crash.
