Important safety notes

G

WARNING

When leaving the vehicle, always remove the

SmartKey from the ignition lock. Always take

the SmartKey with you and lock the vehicle.

Do not leave children unsupervised in the

vehicle, even if they are secured in a child

restraint system, and do not give them access

to an unlocked vehicle. A child's unsupervised

access to a vehicle could result in an accident

and/or serious personal injury. They could:

R

injure themselves on vehicle parts

R

be seriously or fatally injured by extreme

heat or cold

R

injure themselves or have an accident with

vehicle equipment that may still be in

operation even after the SmartKey has

been removed from the ignition, such as the

seat adjustment, steering wheel

adjustment or memory function.

If children open a door, they could cause

severe or even fatal injury to other persons; if

they get out of the vehicle, they could injure

themselves when doing so or be seriously or

even fatally injured by any passing traffic.
Do not expose the child restraint system to

direct sunlight. The child restraint system's

metal parts, for example, could become very

hot, and a child could be burned on these

parts.

G

WARNING

Do not carry heavy or hard objects in the

passenger compartment unless they are

firmly secured in place.
Unsecured or improperly positioned cargo

increases a child's risk of injury in the event

of:

R

strong braking maneuvers

R

sudden changes of direction

R

an accident

WARNING

When opening or closing the door windows,

make sure that there is no danger of anyone

being harmed by the opening/closing

procedure.
The front door windows are equipped with

automatic operation and the anti-entrapment

feature. If in automatic mode a front door

window encounters an obstruction that

blocks its path, the anti-entrapment feature

will stop the door window and open it slightly.
The door windows operate differently when

the switch is pulled. See the "Problems with

door windows" section for details.
The closing of the front door windows can be

immediately halted by releasing the switch or,

if the switch was pulled past the resistance

point and released, by either pressing or

pulling the respective switch.
The closing of the rear side windows can be

immediately halted by releasing the switch.
Activate the override switch when children

are riding in the back seats of the vehicle. The

children may otherwise injure themselves,

e.g. by becoming trapped in the door window

opening.

G

WARNING

Do not keep any part of your body up against

the window pane when opening a window. The

downward motion of the pane may pull that

part of your body down between the window

pane and the door frame and trap it there. If

there is a risk of entrapment, release the

switch and pull it to close the window.
