F0C0158m

Fabric upholstery of your car
is purpose-made to withstand
common wear resulting from
normal use of the car. It is

however absolutely necessary to pre-
vent hard and/or prolonged scratch-
ing/scraping caused by clothing acces-
sories like metallic buckles, studs, “Vel-
cro” fixings, etc. that stressing locally
the fabric could break yarns and dam-
age the upholstery as a consequence.

Only make adjustments when
the car is stationary.

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 sud-
denly and the driver losing control of
the car.

Tilting the back rest
(3-door versions)

To gain access to the rear seats, pull the
handle E upwards, the back rest folds and
the seat is free to run forwards. When re-
setting the back rest, the seat returns to
its original position (mechanical memory).
