Operation: How to deactivate the airbag of a Fiat 500L

Before starting, we will have to go and sit on the driver's seat of our Fiat 500L. So let's start by activating the instrument panel of our car. After that, we will have to press the "SET" button, and then select "Passenger bag" from the menu. At this point, we will have to press the "SET" button again, thus selecting and confirming the "OFF" option. When we have completed this last step, we will be able to successfully deactivate the front passenger airbag of our Fiat 500L, and we will be free to carry the high chair for children in the front seat.

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.
