Important safety notes

G

WARNING

If the backrest is not engaged, it could fold

forwards during a braking maneuver or in the

event of an accident, for example. The seat

backrest will then push the vehicle occupant

against the seat belt. The seat belt can no

longer offer the intended level of protection

and could even cause injuries. There is an

increased risk of injury.
Before each journey, make sure that the back-

rest engages fully as described.

G

WARNING

The seat belt does not offer the intended level

of protection if you have not moved the back-

rest to an almost vertical position. When brak-

ing or in the event of an accident, you could

slide underneath the seat belt and sustain

abdomen or neck injuries, for example. This

poses an increased risk of injury or even fatal

injury.
Adjust the seat properly before beginning

your journey. Always ensure that the backrest

is in an almost vertical position and that the

shoulder section of your seat belt is routed

across the center of your shoulder.

G

WARNING

When you adjust a seat, you or other vehicle

occupants could become trapped, e.g. on the

seat guide rail. There is a risk of injury.
Make sure when adjusting a seat that no one

has any body parts in the sweep of the seat.

Folding the seat backrest forward

The seat moves forwards as soon as you fold

the backrest forwards.
This makes it easier for passengers to get into

and out of the rear compartment. The head

restraint is lowered in the process and the

seat moves forwards.
