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. It is also a specific
regulation of the road traffic code. 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.
Check beam aiming every time the load carried changes.
HEADLIGHT SLANT ADJUSTING DEVICE
The car is fitted with electric headlight slant adjusting device working
with ignition key to MAR and dipped beams on.
When the car is loaded, it slopes backwards. This means that the
headlight beam rises. In this case, it is necessary to return it to the
correct position.
To adjust the headlight slant, proceed as follows:
❒ hold button (B) pressed to increase by one position (e.g.: 0 ➨ 1,1 ➨
2,2
➨ 3);
❒ hold button (A) pressed to decrease by one position (e.g.: 3 ➨ 2,2 ➨
1,1
➨ 0).
Each position increase corresponds to a beam slant lowering (laden car).
