Seats
Note before adjusting
Never attempt to adjust your seat while
the vehicle is moving. The seat could
respond with unexpected movement, and the
ensuing loss of vehicle control could lead to an
accident.
On the front passenger seat as well, do not
incline the backrest too far to the rear while the
vehicle is being driven; otherwise, there is a dan-
ger in the event of an a ccident of sliding under
the safety belt, eliminat ing the protection nor-
mally provided by the belt. <
Comply with the instruct ions on head restraint
height on page 34 and on damaged safety belts
on page 36.
Seat adjustment
Observe the instructions on page 33 to
ensure the best possible personal protec-
tion. <

desired position, arrows 2.
After releasing the lever, move the seat slightly

Lumbar support*

When moving the seat backward, ensure
that you do not cause personal injury or
property damage. Before driving off, enga
ge the front seats and

dent due to unexpected movement. <
Head restraints
Correctly adjusted head restraint

risk of neck injury in the event of an accident.
Correctly adjust the head restraints of all
occupied seats; othe rwise, there is an
increased risk of injury in an accident. <

porting passengers, as otherwise the head
restraint cannot provid e its protective func-
tion. <
