WARNING
Incorrect use of the seat functions or in-
c
orrect removal and fitting of the rear
seats can cause accidents and severe in-
juries.
·
Always keep hands, fingers, feet and
other body parts away from the func-
tion and adjustment areas of the seats.
·
Never make adjustments or remove or
install the rear seats while driving, as
this could cause them to move unex-
pectedly. Furthermore, an incorrect
seating position is adopted while ad-
justing the seat.
·
Only make adjustments when there is
nobody in the adjustment area of the
rear seats.
·
All rear seats must always be fitted in
their retainers and must be securely en-
gaged.
·
All backrests must be in an upright po-
sition and securely locked in place while
the vehicle is in motion so that the pro-
tective action of the seat belts for the
rear seats is guaranteed. If a seat is oc-
cupied and the backrest has not engag-
ed securely into place, the seat occu-
pant and backrest will move forwards
in the event of a sudden braking or driv-
ing manoeuvre or during accidents.
·
Ensure that the seat belt is not trapped
or damaged when folding back the
backrest.
·
While fitting and removing the rear
seats, make sure that the seat feet are
not soiled or damaged.
·
The floor mats or other objects could
get caught in the hinges on the backrest
or the rear seat. This can prevent the
backrest or the rear seat from locking
securely when it is returned to the up-
right position.
·
Adults and children must not use those
seats when the backrest or the rear
seat is folded forward or is not engaged
securely.
WARNING
Cigarette lighters in the vehicle could be
dama
ged or accidentally lit. This could
lead to serious burns and other injuries.
·
Before a
djusting the seats, always
make sure that there is no cigarette
lighter on or near the movable parts of
the seat.
NOTICE
Sharp edges can damage the seats.
·
Do not touch the sea
ts with sharp-edged
objects. Sharp objects, such as zips,
studs on clothing, and belts, may dam-
age surfaces. Open Velcro fasteners can
also cause damage.
If seats are subsequently replaced or
retrofitted, the sea
tbelt status indica-
tor must be activated by a suitably quali-
fied workshop → page 47.
