The armrest on the centre console is fixed to the supporting hinges with screws, but to install it correctly, first align the upper part (the padded and leather-covered part); then attach the lower plastic support; once the two elements are perfectly aligned, apply the fixing screws, starting with the lower ones that secure the armrest to the supporting hinges, and then the upper ones to secure the plastic support to the upper cushion: as they are screwed into plastic, do not exceed the torque.
