Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2023
Part: Seat
Operation: How to lower the rear seats of a Fiat 500

Let's see how to lower the rear seats of a Fiat 500 to gain space in the passenger compartment. First of all we lower the headrest placed above the seat; press the button on the seat backrest, tilt the backrest forward: let it rest on the seat of the seat itself. We carry out the same operations on the other rear seats of the car (unless the seat is whole and cannot be divided) by carrying out the maneuvering operations mentioned above. If we want to overturn the front seat to gain additional space: press the lever next to the seat and lower it until it rests on the seat of the same.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
