Seats
Note before adjusting
Never attempt to adjust your seat while
operating the vehicle. The seat could
respond with unexpected movement and the
ensuing loss of vehicle control could lead to an
accident.
On the front passenger side as well, do not tilt
the backrest too far toward the rear. Failure to
observe this precaution can prevent the belt
from providing effective protection against
injury, as the passenger could slide under the
belt in an accident.<
Also follow the instructions regarding damage
to the safety belt on page52.
Convertible: with the wind deflector fitted,
do not incline the front seat backrests too
far backward if the seat is to be moved back to
the end position; otherwise, the wind deflector
will be damaged.<
Seat adjustment
To ensure that the safety systems con-
tinue to provide optimized protection,

Front head restraints
A correctly adjusted head restraint reduces the
risk of injury to cervical vertebrae in an accident.

is approx. at ear level. Otherwise there is
increased danger of injury in the event of an
accident.<
