Around the pedal area there should not be any foot mats or other
additional floor covering materials:
•In the case of defects in the brake system, a greater pedal travel
may be necessary.
•It should always be possible to depressthe clutch and
accelerator pedals fully.
•All pedals must be able to return, unhindered, to their rest
positions.
For these reasons, the only foot mats which may be used are those
which leave the pedal area completely free and which are
prevented from slipping.

Stowing luggage
In the interests of good handling ensure that the load (persons and
luggage) is distributed evenly. Heavy items should always be
carried as near to the rear axle as possible or better still, between
the axles.
Stale air escapes through ventilation openings in the side trim* of
the luggage compartment. For this reason, it is best to keep these
openings uncovered.

Increasing boot space*
You may tip the rear seats forwards to increase the boot space: if it
is a split seat each half can be tipped separately.
Before knocking down the rear seat you must remove the
headrests*. For this it is necessary to slide the support a little
forward
⇒chapter "Head restraints".
The front seats must be placed so that the back seats do not
collide with them, to avoid damage.
