Transporting children safelyVehicle equipmentAll standard, country-specific and optional
equipment that is offered in the model series is
described in this chapter. Therefore, equip‐
ment is also described that is not available in a
vehicle, e. g., because of the selected optional
equipment or country variant. This also applies
for safety-related functions and systems.
The right place for children Note Children in the vehicle
Do not leave children unattended in the
vehicle; otherwise, they could endanger them‐
selves and other persons, e.g., by opening the
doors.◀
Children should always be in the rear
Accident research shows that the safest place
for children is in the back seat.
Transporting children in the rear
Only transport children younger than
13 years of age or shorter than 5 ft/150 cm in
the rear in child restraint fixing systems pro‐
vided in accordance with the age, weight and
size of the child; otherwise, there is an in‐
creased risk of injury in an accident.
Children 13 years of age or older must wear a
safety belt as soon as a suitable child restraint
fixing system can no longer be used, due to
their age, weight and size.◀
Children on the front passenger seat
Should it ever be necessary to use a child re‐
straint fixing system in the front passenger
seat, make sure that the front, knee and side
airbags on the front passenger side are deacti‐vated. Automatic deactivation of front passen‐
ger airbags, refer to page 97.
Note Deactivated front passenger airbags
If a child restraint fixing system is used in
the front passenger seat, the front passenger
airbags must be deactivated; otherwise, there
is an increased risk of injury to the child when
the airbags are triggered, even with a child re‐
straint fixing system.◀
Installing child restraint
fixing systems
Before mounting Before mounting child restraint fixing systems,
ensure that the rear seat backrests are locked.
Hints Manufacturer's information for child re‐straint fixing systems
To select, mount and use child restraint fixing
systems, observe the information provided by
the system manufacturer; otherwise, the pro‐
tective effect can be impaired.◀
Ensuring the stability of the child seat
When installing child restraint fixing sys‐
tems, make sure that the child seat is securely
fastened to the backrest of the seat. The angle
of the backrest may need to be adjusted and,
where necessary, the headrest height may also
need to be adjusted, or if possible removed.
Make sure that all backrests are securely
locked. Otherwise, the stability of the child
seat is limited, and there is an increased risk of
injury because of unexpected movement of the
rear seat backrest.◀Seite 58ControlsTransporting children safely58

the front passenger seat, make sure that the
front, knee and side airbags on the front pas‐
senger side are deactivated.
Deactivate the front passenger airbags auto‐
matically, refer to page 97.
Deactivating the front passenger airbags
If a child restraint fixing system is used in
the front passenger seat, the front passenger
airbags must be deactivated; otherwise, there
is an increased risk of injury to the child when
the airbags are triggered, even with a child re‐
straint fixing system.◀
Seat position and height
Before installing a child restraint fixing system,
move the front passenger seat as far back as
possible and adjust its height to the highest
position to obtain the best possible position for
the belt and to offer optimal protection in the
event of an accident.
If the upper fixing point of the safety belt is lo‐
cated before the belt guide of the child seat,
move the passenger seat carefully forward un‐
til the best possible belt guide position is
reached.
Backrest width Adjustable backrest width: before installing a
child restraint fixing system in the front pas‐
senger seat, open the backrest width com‐
pletely. Do not change the backrest width
again and do not call up a memory position.Backrest width for the child seat
Before installing a child restraint fixing
system in the front passenger seat, the back‐
rest width must be opened completely. Do not
change the adjustment after this; otherwise,
the stability of the child seat will be reduced.◀

safety belt can be locked against pulling out for
mounting the child restraint fixing systems.
Locking the safety belt
1.Pull out the belt webbing completely.2.Secure the child restraint fixing system

slide it to the left. Then insert the right
side.
Enlarging the cargo area
General information
The cargo area can be enlarged by folding
down the rear seat backrest.
The rear seat backrest is divided into two parts
at a ratio of 60 to 40.
If equipped with through-loading system: the
rear seat backrest is divided in the ratio 40–20–
40. The sides and the middle section can be
folded down separately.
Hints Danger of pinching
Before folding down the rear seat back‐
rests, ensure that the area of movement of the
backrests is clear. In particular, ensure that no
one is located in or reaches into the area of
movement of the rear seat backrests when the
middle section is folded down. Otherwise, in‐
jury or damage may result.◀
Ensuring the stability of the child seat
When installing child restraint fixing sys‐
tems, make sure that the child seat is securely
fastened to the backrest of the seat. The angle
of the backrest may need to be adjusted and,
where necessary, the headrest height may also
need to be adjusted, or if possible removed.
Make sure that all backrests are securely
locked. Otherwise, the stability of the child
seat is limited, and there is an increased risk of
injury because of unexpected movement of the
rear seat backrest.◀
Ensure that the lock is securely engaged
When folding back the backrest, make
sure that it securely locks in place. When this
happens the red warning field on the seat dis‐
appears. If the backrest is not properly en‐
gaged, transported cargo could enter the pas‐
senger compartment during braking or evasive
maneuvers and endanger the vehicle occu‐
pants.◀
Using the middle safety belt
If the middle safety belt in the rear is
used, the larger side of the backrest must be
locked. Otherwise, the safety belt will not have
a restraining effect.◀Seite 156ControlsInterior equipment156
