pants:

•
The seats must always be firm­ ly engaged in the mountings so

that
they cannot become de­
tached when braking or in an

accident.

•
The seats must always be in­
stalled in the correct direction
and position so
that
the belts pro­
vided for each place can be worn properly.

At the second position a warning lamp in the switch comes on.

The fog lights
work
with
the side lights (ignition on), low or high beams.

The rear fog light
works only
with
the fog lights or
with
the low or high beams.

Due
to the amount of
dazzle
it
causes
the

rear
fog
light
should only be switched on
when the visibility is very poor (in Germany
for example, below 50 metres).

Note
The
electrical system of the factory
fitted

tow bar* is wired-up so
that
when towing

a
trailer
fitted
with
rear fog lights, the rear
fog
light
on the towing vehicle are automati­
cally
switched off.
