Seats - Fiat 500x User Manual

SEATS

Seats are a part of the Occupant Restraint System of the vehicle.
• It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision,
people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed.
• Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to
be seriously injured or killed.
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
Manual Adjustment Front Seats
Manual Front Seat Forward/Rearward Ad-
justment
On models equipped with manual seats, the
forward/rearward adjusting bar is located at
the front of the seats, near the floor.
While sitting in the seat, lift up on the bar
and move the seat forward or rearward.
Release the bar once you have reached the
desired position. Then, using body pressure,
move forward and rearward on the seat to
be sure that the seat adjusters have
latched.
• Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The sudden movement of
the seat could cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not be adjusted prop-
erly and you could be injured. Adjust the seat only while the vehicle is parked.
• Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the shoulder belt is no longer rest-
ing against your chest. In a collision you could slide under the seat belt and be
seriously or even fatally injured. Use the recliner only when the vehicle is parked.
