Seats And Head Restraints - Seat Alhambra Owner's Manual

When moving the mirror, take care not to
●
trap fingers between the mirror and the mir-
ror bracket.
WARNING
Failure to correctly estimate the distance of
the vehicle behind could lead to serious acci-
dent.
● Rear-view convex or aspheric mirrors in-
crease the field of vision, however objects ap-
pear smaller and further away in the mirrors.
● The use of these mirrors to estimate the
distance to the next vehicle when changing
lane is imprecise and could result in serious
accident.
If possible, use the rear vision mirror to es-
●
timate distances to vehicles behind you or in
other circumstances.
Make sure that the rear visibility is ade-
●
quate.
CAUTION
Before entering a car wash, always ensure
●
that the exterior mirrors are correctly folded
in.
Electrically-folding exterior mirrors should
●
not be folded and unfolded mechanically as
this may damage the electrical operation.

Operation
For the sake of the environment
The exterior mirror heating should be switch-
ed off when it is no longer needed. Other-
wise, it is an unnecessary fuel waste.
Note
The exterior mirror heating initially heats
●
up with a high power, after two minutes the
heat will depend upon the ambient tempera-
ture.
● In the event of a fault, the electric exterior
mirrors can be adjusted manually by pressing
the edge of the mirror surface.

WARNING
● Adjust the front seats only when the vehi-
cle is stationary. Failure to follow this instruc-
tion could result in an accident.
● Be careful when adjusting the seat height.
Careless or uncontrolled adjustment can
cause injuries.
● The front seat backrests must not be re-
clined for driving. Otherwise, seat belts and
the airbag system might not protect as they
should in the case of an accident, increasing
risk of injury.
