WARNING
EXTENDING THE BOOT
(versions with fixed rear seat) fig. 76
To extend the boot, proceed as follows:
1) The parcel shelf removed can be placed transversally
behind the backrests. To remove, release the two catch-
es A (one each side) from their locations and pull the par-
cel shelf outwards.
2) Operate the levers on the backrests outer side and tilt
the backrest forwards shifting aside the seat belt.
For three-point central seat belts see paragraph “Use of
the central seat belt” in chapter “Safety devices”.
To bring back the seat in its standard position: lift the back-
rest and push it backwards until you hear the locking click
and make sure the seat belts are at the front of the back-
rest.
Upon demand the car can be fitted with split rear seat.
The boot extension possibilities offered by the split seat
are many and can 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 tilt-
ed as described above;
❒ partial extension with left or right side of the seat tilt-
ed and place only for one person on the rear seat.
IMPORTANT If in a rather heavy load is being carried in
the boot and you are travelling at night, check and adjust
the main beam headlights aiming (see “Headlights” in this
section).
