the seat.

Coupe: releasing backrest
Pull the lever upward and fold the backrest for-
ward.
The lever is designed in such a way that the
safety belt can be stored there. This enables
you to fasten the safety belt more conveniently.
Convertible: releasing backrest
The belt system integrated into the seat
ensures easier entry into the rear.
1. Pull the lever 1 upward and fold the back-
rest forward.
2. Press and hold button 2 until the seat has
moved to the desired position.
3. After entry to the rear, fold back the back-
rest and lock it in place.
4. Press and hold button 3. The seat moves
back to its previous position. If you release
button
3 before this, the seat stops in its
current position.
You can lock the backrest in place when it
is folded forward. This is useful, for exam-
ple, when you get into the vehicle when it is
parked on a hill. Press the backrest until it audi-
bly locks into place. To fold it back, you do not
have to use lever
1 to release it. <
Lock backrest warning lamp:
Lights up when the backrest is not
locked. At the same time, an additional
message appears on the Control Display.
Safety belts
To ensure that the safety systems con-
tinue to provide optimized protection,
please observe the adjustment instructions on
page

Before every drive, make sure that safety belts
are being worn at all of the occupied seats. Air-
bags complement the safety belt as an addi-
tional safety device, but they do not represent a
substitute.
