Exterior rear view mirror heating
This feature is only available on the model
passion and BRABUS and in conjunction
with power exterior rear view mirrors.
After switching on the rear window
defroster, the exterior rear view mirrors
will be heated automatically. This
prevents icing up the exterior rear view
mirrors
and also creates a clear view when
the exterior rear view mirrors have fogged
up.
If the rear window defroster is
automatically deactivated after
approximately 10 minutes of operation, the
exterior rear view mirror heating also
deactivates.
X Make sure the key is in starter switch
position 1.
X Switching on: Switch on the rear window
defroster (Y page 106).
The

exterior rear view mirror heating is
switched on.
X Switching off:
Switch off the rear window
defroster (Y page 106).
The exterior rear view mirror heating is
switched off.
i The exterior rear view mirror heating
also switches off if the key is turned to
starter switch position 0.Interior rear view mirror X
Adjusting the mirror: Manually move the
interior
rear view mirror up, down, left,
or right to the desired setting.

Fastening the seat belts

WARNING
Always fasten your seat belt before driving.
Always
make sure all of your passengers are
properly restrained.
Failure to wear and properly fasten and
position your seat belt greatly increases
your risk of injuries and their likely
severity in an accident. You and your
passenger should always wear seat belts.
If you are ever in an accident, your injuries
can be considerably more severe without
your seat belt properly buckled.
Without your seat belt buckled, you are
much more likely to hit the interior of the
vehicle or be ejected from it. You can be
seriously injured or killed.
In the same crash, the possibility of injury
or death is lessened if you are properly
wearing your seat belt. Air bags can only
protect you if you are properly wearing
your seat belt. G
WARNING
Children 12 years old and under must be
seated and properly secured in an
appropriately sized infant restraint,
toddler restraint, or booster seat
recommended

for the size and weight of the
child. For additional information, see
“Children in the vehicle”.
A child’s risk of serious or fatal injuries
is significantly increased if the child
restraints are not properly secured in the 62
Seat belts
