The folding bench seat in the cargo
compartment is approved only for per-

and a maximum weight of 110 lbs

The twin roller blind must be installed

Warning!
G
When using the folding bench seat in the
cargo compartment, the seats in front of it
must be in the driving position.
Only drive when the head restraints for the
folding bench seat have been properly ad-
justed. The head restraints should be adjust-
ed so that the back of the head is supported
at approximately eye level. This can reduce
a child’s risk of injury in the event of an ac-
cident.
Warning!
G
Make sure that the seat belt is positioned
correctly on the body and is engaged in the
seat belt buckle.
Damaged covers should be replaced with
original covers only.
Do not leave children unattended in the ve-
hicle, even when they are secured in a child
restraint system.
Make sure that luggage and other objects
are adequately secured. The load could oth-
erwise injure someone in the event of an ac-
cident, during hard braking or steering
maneuvers.
i
The rear seat backrests can be adjust-
ed to a more reclined position to make
the folding bench seat more comfort-
able (
