®.
9)After releasing the adjustment lever,
always check that the seat is locked on the
guides by trying to move it back and forth.
If the seat is not locked into place, it may
unexpectedly slide and cause the driver to
lose control of the vehicle.
10)If passengers are seating in the rear
seats, remove all potentially dangerous
objects which may cause injuries in the
event of an accident.
WARNING
2)The fabric upholstery for the seats has
been designed to withstand long-term
wear deriving from normal use of the
vehicle. Nevertheless, some precautions
are required. Avoid prolonged and/or
excessive rubbing involving clothing
accessories such as metal buckles,
bosses, Velcro strips and the like, which,
by applying a high pressure on the fabric in
a limited area, could cause it to break,
thereby damaging the upholstery.
3)Before tilting the backrest, remove any
objects on the seat cushion.

FRONT HEAD
RESTRAINTS
Upwards adjustment: raise the head
restraint until it clicks into place.
Downwards adjustment: press
button A fig. 12 and lower the head
restraint.
"Anti-Whiplash" device
The head restraints are equipped with
an "Anti-Whiplash" device, which
reduces the distance between head
and head restraint in the event of a rear
impact, thus mitigating the "whiplash"
effect.
The head restraint 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.
