Warning!

G

When leaving the vehicle, always remove the

SmartKey or the SmartKey with

KEYLESS-GO* from the starter switch, take

it with you, and lock the vehicle.

Even with the SmartKey or the SmartKey

with KEYLESS-GO* removed from the

starter switch or the SmartKey with

KEYLESS-GO* removed from the vehicle,

the power seats can be operated when the

respective door is open. Therefore, do not

leave children unattended in the vehicle, or

with access to an unlocked vehicle. A child’s

unsupervised access to a vehicle could re-

sult in an accident and/or serious personal

injury.

Warning!

G

According to accident statistics, children

are safer when properly restrained in the

rear seating positions than in the front seat-

ing position. Thus, we strongly recommend

that children be placed in the rear seats

whenever possible. Regardless of seating

position, children 12 years old and under

must be seated and properly secured in an

appropriate infant or toddler restraint, or

booster seat recommended for the size and

weight of the child. For additional informa-

tion, see “Children in the vehicle”

(

page 82).

A child’s risk of serious or fatal injuries is

significantly increased if the child restraints

are not properly secured in the vehicle and

the child is not properly secured in the child

restraint.

i

The memory function (

page 123) lets you

store the settings for the seat position together
with the settings for the steering wheel and the
exterior rear view mirrors.

!

When moving the seat, make sure there are

no items in the footwell or behind the seats, oth-
erwise you could damage the seats.
