Bonnet - Alfa Romeo 166 Booklet

SECURING THE LOAD
The loads carried may be blocked with
straps hooked to the special rings in the
boot corners (fig. 140). The rings also
serve to secure the luggage retaining net
(available on request c/o Alfa Romeo Au-
thorized Services).
IMPORTANT Travelling at night with
a load in the boot it is necessary to adjust
the height of the low beam headlights
(see next paragraph "Headlights" in this
chapter). For correct use of the aiming
device, also make sure that the load does
not exceed the values given in the same
paragraph.

compartment above the
permitted maximum (see "Techni-
cal specifications"). Also make sure
that the objects contained in the

them from being thrown forward
causing harm to the passengers in
the event of sharp braking.
WARNING
A heavy load that has not
been secured may cause
serious harm to passengers in the
event of an accident.
