ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHT BEAM
Proper adjustment of the headlight beams is of vital importance for your safety and comfort and also for the other road users. It is also a specific regulation of the road traffic code. To ensure you and other drivers have the best visibility conditions when travelling with the headlights on, the headlights must be set properly.
Contact Fiat Dealership to have the headlights properly adjusted.
Check beam aiming every time the load carried changes.

Each position increase corresponds to a beam slant lowering (laden car).
