fig. 34F0G0031mMoving the seat backwards
or forwards fig. 32
Lift the lever Aand push the seat forwards
or backwards: in the driving position the
arms should rest on the rim of the steer-
ing wheel.
Back rest angle adjustment fig. 33
Turn the knob B.
Cushion adjustment
(where provided) fig. 34
Use lever Dto raise or lower the back
of the cushion in order to obtain the re-
quired comfortable driving position.
Only make adjustments
when the car is stationary.
WARNING
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 suddenly and the dri-
ver losing control of the car.
WARNING
Upholstery of your car has
been designed to withstand
wear deriving from common
use of the car. You are how-
ever recommended to avoid strong
and/or continuous scratching with
clothing accessories such as metallic
buckles, studs, Velcro fastenings and
the like, since these items cause cir-
cumscribed stress of the cover fabric
that could lead to yarn breaking, and
damage the cover as a consequence.

CLOSING THE TAILGATE fig. 77
To close, lower the tailgate until the lock
clicks.
On the tailgate inner side there are a
reces Bthat make it easier to hold and
close the tailgate. RAISING THE REAR PARCEL
SHELF fig. 76
To stove luggage friendly you can raise the
rear parcel shelf until hearing the locking
click. Push it down to refit it.
fig. 76F0G0237mfig. 77F0G0689m
When using the boot, make
sure the load you are carry-
ing does not exceed the permitted
weight (see “Technical specifications”
chapter). Also ensure the items in the
boot are arranged properly to pre-
vent them being thrown forward and
injuring passengers, should you brake
sharply.
WARNING
Do not travel with the tail-
gate open: exhaust gases
may get into the passenger’s com-
partment.
WARNING
When travelling in areas
where it is difficult to find a
filling station and you wish to carry
a reserve fuel can, attain to the rele-
vant law and use only certified cans,
well fastened to the load anchoring
hooks. Even in this way the risk of fire
is increased in the case of an accident.
WARNING
Open the tailgate with care
when carrying objects on the
roof rack bars to prevent impacts.

To restore the use of the rear seat: lift the
seat back and push it backwards until you
hear the locking click and make sure the
seat belts are at the front of the seat back.
The car can be fitted, as optional, with sep-
arate rear seats.
The boot extension possibilities offered
by the split seat are many and they should
be chosen according to the number of
passengers and the amount of luggage to
be carried:
❒total extension with right and left side
of the seat tilted as described above;
❒partial extension with left or right side
of the seat tilted and place only for No.
1 rear passenger.
IMPORTANT If in the boot there is a
rather heavy load and you are travelling at
night, check and adjust aiming of the main
beam headlights (see “Headlights” in this
section).EXTENDING THE BOOT
(versions with rear sliding seat)
fig. 79 and 80
Partial extension
Use lever A(in the passenger’s compart-
ment) or the central tab Din the boot to
move the seat forward.
Total extension
Remove the rear parcel shelf as previous-
ly described (see versions with rear fixed
seat).
Use lever Aor central tab Din the boot
to move the seat to the required position
(e.g.: fully forward for total boot exten-
sion);
Lift lever Bor Cor pull side tabs Eor F
in the boot to release the seat back rest
section to tilt; both if you want to tilt the
whole back rest. EXTENDING THE BOOT
(versions with rear fixed seat)

wards.
2) Operate the levers on the seat back
outer side and tilt the seat back forwards
putting aside the seat belts.
For central seat belts with three anchor
point see paragraph “Use of the central
seat belt” in section “Safety devices”.

The car is fitted with an electrical device
for correcting the headlight slant. The de-
vice can be operated with the ignition key
at MARand the dipped beam headlights
are on.
When the car is loaded, it slopes back-
wards. This means the headlight beam ris-
es.
In this case, it is necessary to return it to
the correct position using buttons +and
–.
The display shows the positions during the
adjustment.ADJUSTING THE FRONT

Boot extension: unfasten the belt through
button Mand guide the belt to prevent
it from twisting; overlap tongues Iand G,
on the catch Hin the reel compartment.
IMPORTANT After repositioning the
seats, restore proper seat belts conditions
for prompt use.PRETENSIONERS
To increase the efficiency of the front and
rear (where provided) seat belts, the Fiat
Panda is fitted with pretensioners. These
devices “feel”, through a sensor, that a vi-
olent crash is in progress and rewind the
seat belts a few centimetres. In this way
they ensure that the seat belt adheres per-
fectly to the wearer before the restrain-
ing action begins.
The seat belt locks to indicate that the de-
vice has intervened; the seat belt cannot
be drawn back up even when guiding it
manually.
IMPORTANT To obtain the highest de-
gree of protection from the action of the
pretensioning device, wear the seat belt
keeping it firmly close to the chest and
pelvis.
A small amount of smoke may be pro-
duced. This smoke is in no way toxic and
presents no fire hazard.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or greasing. Anything that
modifies its original conditions invalidates
its efficiency. If due to unusual natural
events (floods, sea storms, etc.) the device
has been affected by water and mud, it
must necessarily be replaced. Seat belt with three anchor points
(for versions/markets where
applicable) fig. 5
The seat belt has two webbings and a dou-
ble buckle.
To use the seat belts, take the tongues out
of the reel compartment and pull the belt,
guide the belt to prevent it from twisting
then secure tongue Ginto buckle Lfitted
with the black button M.
To fasten the belt, run the belt and secure
tongue Iinto the corresponding buckle N.
To fasten the belt: press button Oand guide
the belt to prevent it from twisting.
fig. 5F0G0241m
Remember that in the case
of a violent collision, back
seat passengers not wearing seat belts
also represent a serious danger to the
passengers in the front.

Accessories installed on
longitudinal bars
Remove accessories like: roof racks, ski
racks, luggage container, etc. from the roof
as soon as they are no longer used. These
accessories lower air penetration and ad-
versely affect consumption levels. When
needing to carry particularly voluminous
objects, preferably use a trailer.
Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the amount
of time needed. Rear heated window, ad-
ditional headlights, windscreen wipers and
heater fan need a considerable amount of
energy, therefore increasing the require-
ment of current increases fuel consump-
tion (up to +25% in the urban cycle).
Climate control
The air conditioner is an additional load
which greatly affects the engine leading to
higher consumption (on average up to
+20%). When the temperature outside
the car permits it, use the air vents where
possible.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified aerodynamic
items may adversely affect air drag and
consumption levels.DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine with the car at
a standstill or at idle or high speed: under
these conditions the engine warms up
much more slowly, increasing electrical
consumption and emissions. It is therefore
advisable to move off immediately, slow-
ly, avoiding high speeds: this way the en-
gine will warm faster.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid accelerating when waiting at traffic
lights or before switching off the engine.
This and also double declutching is ab-
solutely pointless on modern cars and al-
so increases consumption and pollution.
Gear selection
As soon as the conditions of the traffic and
road allow, use a higher gear. Using a low
gear to obtain brilliant performance in-
creases consumption.
In the same way improper use of a high
gear increases consumption, emissions an
engine wear.CONTAINING
RUNNING COSTS
Some useful tips are given below for fuel
saving and reducing harmful emissions of
CO
2and other pollutants (nitrogen ox-
ides, unburnt hydrocarbons, Particulate
Matter (PM) etc.).
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out
in accordance with the “Service schedule”.
Tyres
Check the pressure of the tyres routine-
ly at an interval of no more than 4 weeks:
if the pressure is too low, consumption
levels increase as resistance to rolling is
higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with too much luggage
stowed in the boot. The weight of the car
(especially when driving in town) and its
trim greatly affects consumption and sta-
bility.
