HEADLIGHT ADJUSTMENT ABROAD
The dipped-beam headlights are adjusted for circulation in the country in
which the vehicle is marketed. In countries with opposite circulation, to
avoid glaring oncoming vehicles, it is necessary to cover the areas of the
headlight as shown below: this is done using non-transparent sticker tape.
Figures refer to passing from right-hand drive to left-hand drive.

To adjust the seat belt, raise or lower knob (A) of the locking
mechanism, moving at the same time the loop (B) to the best of the
available positions.
