Safety
Service and disposal of belt
tensioners The belt tensioners are components of the
seat belts that are installed in the seats of
your vehicle. If you work on the belt tension-
ers or remove and install parts of the system
when performing other repair work, the seat
belt may be damaged. The consequence may
be that, in the event of an accident, the belt
tensioners function incorrectly or may not
function at all.
So that the effectiveness of the seat belt ten-
sioner is not reduced and that removed parts
do not cause any injuries or environmental
pollution, regulations, which are known to
the specialised workshops, must be ob-
served.
WARNING
● Improper use or repairs not carried out by
qualified mechanics increase the risk of se-
vere or fatal injuries. The belt tensioners may
fail to trigger or may trigger in the wrong cir-
cumstances.
● Never attempt to repair, adjust, remove or
install parts of the belt tensioners or seat
belts.
● The seat belt tensioner, seat belt and auto-
matic retractor cannot be repaired.
● Any work on the belt tensioners and seat
belts, including the removal and refitting of
system parts in conjunction with other repair work, must be performed by a specialised
workshop only.
●
The belt tensioners will only provide pro-
tection for one accident and must be changed
if they have been activated. Airbag system
Brief introduction Why wear a seat belt and assume the
correct sitting position? For the inflating airbags to achieve the best
protection, the seat belt must always be worn
properly and the correct sitting position must
be assumed.
The airbag system is not a substitute for seat
belts, but it is an integral part of the vehicle's
overall passive safety system. Please bear in
mind that the airbag system can only work ef-
fectively when the vehicle occupants are
wearing their seat belts correctly and have
adjusted the head restraints properly. There-
fore, it is most important to wear the seat
belts at all times, not only because this is re-
quired by law in most countries, but also for
your safety
›››
page 11, The reasons why we
should wear seat belts .
The airbag inflates in a matter of seconds, so
if you are not properly seated when the air-
bag is triggered, you may sustain fatal inju-
ries. Therefore, it is essential that all vehicle
occupants assume a correct sitting position
while travelling.
Sharp braking before an accident may cause
a passenger not wearing a seat belt to be
thrown forward into the area of the deploying

Voice control Fig. 33
Multifunction steering wheel: voice
control. The time during which the system is ready to
receive voice commands and execute them is
called dialogue. The system provides acous-
tic warnings and if necessary, will guide you
through the respective functions.
It is recommended to use the
Help menu the
first time that voice control is used in order to
familiarize yourself with this function.
Optimum operation of the voice commands
depends on several factors:
● Speak slowly and clearly, as far as possi-
ble. The system will not recognise words pro-
nounced unclearly, or words and numbers in
which syllables are omitted. ●
Speak with normal voice volume, without
exaggerated intonation or long pauses.
● Close the doors, windows and sunroof for
the purpose of dampening or insulating
against unwanted noise from the exterior. Do
not aim the air from the diffusers at the roof.
● If you are driving very fast, it is recommen-
ded that you speak a little louder.
● While talking, avoid making other noise in-
side the vehicle, i.e., occupants that are talk-
ing at the same time.
● Do not speak when the system is providing
information. »
