General notes
Some systems carry out a self-diagnosis when the ignition is switched on. Several warning and indicator lamps can thereby temporarily light up or flash. This behaviour is non-critical. These
warning and indicator lamps only indicate a malfunction if they light up or flash after the engine is started or during a journey. Wa

straps cannot restrain any objects other than skis.
Vehicle occupants could be struck in the
event of sudden braking or an accident, for
instance, if you:
R transport other heavy or sharp-edged
objects in the skibag
R do not secure the skibag with the lashing
straps
There is a risk of accident and injury.
Store only skis in the skibag. Always secure
the skibag with the lashing straps so that it
cannot move around.
A maximum of four pairs of skis or two snow- boards can be transported in the ski/snow-
board bag.

(Y page 393).
X Slide the ski/snowboard bag between the
two outside rear seat backrests. Ensure
that the wheels of the ski/snowboard bag
are in the luggage compartment.
X Open the ski/snowboard bag with zip :
and place the skis or snowboards inside it. X
Close the ski/snowboard bag.
X Pull tensioning strap ;tight by the loose
end until the skis or snowboards are held
firmly inside the ski/snowboard bag. X

Important safety notes G
WARNING
If the rear bench seat/rear seat and seat
backrest are not engaged they could fold for- wards, e.g. when braking suddenly or in the
event of an accident.
R The vehicle occupant would thereby be
pushed into the seat belt by the rear bench
seat/rear seat or by the seat backrest. The
seat belt cannot protect as intended and
could result in additional injury.
R Objects or loads in the boot/luggage com-
partment cannot be restrained by the seat
backrest.
This poses an increased risk of injury.
Before every trip, make sure that the seat
backrests and the rear bench seat/rear seat
are engaged before every trip.
! When folding the rear seat backrest for-
wards, ensure that there are no items lying
on the seat cushions. These items could
otherwise be damaged or could themselves damage the rear seats. Stowage areas
