Notice
Changes to the vehicle interior, e.g.
the use of seat covers, and open
windows, could impair the function
of passenger compartment
monitoring.
Status LEDStatus LED is integrated in the sensor
on top of the instrument panel.
Status during the first 30 seconds of
anti-theft alarm system activation:LED illuminates:test, arming delayLED flashes

Seek the assistance of a workshop in the event of faults.
Deactivation Unlocking the vehicle deactivates the
anti-theft alarm system.
Alarm The alarm can be silenced bypressing any button of the radio
remote control or by switching on the
ignition.
The anti-theft alarm system can be
deactivated by pressing e or
switching on the ignition.
Auto door locking
After unlocking doors with the radio
remote control, if no door is opened or
the key is not located in ignition switch position 2 or 3 3 125 within
three minutes of unlocking, all doors
are locked automatically and the anti-
theft alarm system is re-activated.
Automatic door unlocking All doors will be automatically
unlocked when impact is delivered to
impact sensors while the ignition is
switched on.
However, the doors may not be
unlocked if mechanical problems
occur with the door locking system or
battery.
Immobiliser
The system is part of the ignition
switch and checks whether the
vehicle is allowed to be started with the key being used.
The immobiliser is activated
automatically after the key has been
removed from the ignition switch.
42Seats, restraintsAirbag systemThe airbag system consists of a
number of individual systems
depending on the scope of
equipment.
When triggered, the airbags inflate
within milliseconds. They also deflate
so quickly that it is often unnoticeable during the collision.9 Warning
If handled improperly the airbag
systems can be triggered in an
explosive manner.
Notice
The airbag systems and belt
pretensioner control electronics are
located in the centre console area.
Do not put any magnetic objects in
this area.
Do not affix any objects onto the
airbag covers and do not cover them with other materials.
Each airbag is triggered only once.
Have deployed airbags replaced by
a workshop. Furthermore, it may be
necessary to have the steering
wheel, the instrument panel, parts of
the panelling, the door seals,
handles and the seats replaced.
Do not make any modifications to
the airbag system as this will
invalidate the vehicle type approval.
When the airbags inflate, escaping
hot gases may cause burns.

Airbag deactivation 3 47.
Front airbag system
The front airbag system consists of
one airbag in the steering wheel and
one in the instrument panel on the
front passenger side. These can be
identified by the word AIRBAG.
The front airbag system is triggered in
the event of a front-end impact of a
certain severity. The ignition must be
switched on.The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the upper body and head of
the front seat occupants
considerably.9 Warning
Optimum protection is only
provided when the seat is in the
proper position.
Seat position 3 35.
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.
Fit the seat belt correctly and
engage securely. Only then is the
airbag able to protect.
Side airbag system
The side airbag system consists of an
airbag in each front seat backrest.
This can be identified by the word
AIRBAG .
The side airbag system is triggered in the event of a side impact of a certain
severity. The ignition must be
switched on.
Seats, restraints47Airbag deactivation
The front passenger airbag system
must be deactivated if a child restraint
system is to be fitted on this seat. The side airbag and curtain airbag
systems, the belt pretensioners and
all driver airbag systems will remain active.
The front passenger airbag system
can be deactivated via a key-
operated switch on the right side of the instrument panel.
Use the ignition key to choose the
position:c:front passenger airbags are
deactivated and will not inflate
in the event of a collision.
Control indicator c
illuminates continuously in the
centre console. A child
restraint system can be
installed in accordance with
the chart Child restraint
installation locations 3 49.
No adult person is allowed to
occupy the front passenger
seat.d:front passenger airbags are
active. A child restraint system
must not be installed.9 Danger
Risk of fatal injury for a child using
a child restraint system on a seat
with activated front passenger
airbag.
Risk of fatal injury for an adult
person on a seat with deactivated
front passenger airbag.
As long as the control indicator c is
not illuminated, the front passenger
airbag system will inflate in the event
of a collision.
Change status only when the vehicle
is stopped with the ignition off.

Loading information .....................69Storage compartments9Warning
Do not store heavy or sharp
objects in the storage
compartments. Otherwise, the
storage compartment lid could
open and vehicle occupants could be injured by objects being thrown
around in the event of hard
braking, a sudden change in
direction or an accident.
Instrument panel storage
A storage compartment is located
next to the steering wheel.
A further storage compartment is
located on top of the glovebox.
To open, push the button.
The covers of the storage
compartments should be closed while
driving.
Storage69Loading information● Heavy objects in the load compartment should be placed
against the seat backrests.
Ensure the backrests are
securely engaged. If objects can
be stacked, the heavier objects
should be placed at the bottom.
● Secure objects with lashing straps attached to the lashing
eyes 3 68.
● Secure loose objects in load compartment to prevent sliding.
● When transporting objects in the load compartment, the backrestsof the rear seats must not beangled forward.
● Do not allow the load to protrude above the upper edge of the
backrests.
● Do not place any objects on the load compartment cover or theinstrument panel, and do not
cover the sensor on top of the
instrument panel.● The load must not obstruct the operation of the pedals, parking
brake and gear selector, or
hinder the freedom of movement
of the driver. Do not place any
unsecured objects in the interior.
● Do not drive with an open load compartment.9Warning
Always make sure that the load in
the vehicle is securely stowed.
Otherwise objects can be thrown
around inside the vehicle and
cause personal injury or damage
to the load or vehicle.
● The payload is the difference between the permitted gross
vehicle weight (see identification
plate 3 207) and the EC kerb
weight.
To calculate the payload, enter
the data for your vehicle in the
weights table at the front of this
manual.
The EC kerb weight includes
weights for the driver (68 kg),
luggage (7 kg) and all fluids (fuel
tank 90% full).
Optional equipment and
accessories increase the kerb
weight.
● Driving with a roof load increases
the sensitivity of the vehicle to
cross-winds and has a
detrimental effect on vehicle
handling due to the vehicle’s
higher centre of gravity.
Distribute the load evenly and
secure it properly with retaining
straps. Adjust the tyre pressure
and vehicle speed according to
the load conditions. Check and
retighten the straps frequently.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph.
● The permissible roof load is 75 kg. The roof load is the
combined weight of the roof rack and the load.
