General information
Why is your seat adjustment so important?
The safety belts and the airbag system can only
provide
maximum protection if the front seats
are correctly adjusted.
There are various ways of adjusting the front
seats to provide safe and comfortable support
for the driver and the front passenger. Adjust
your seat properly so that:
- you can easily and quickly reach all the switches
and controls in the instrument panel
-your body is properly supported thus reducing
physical
stress and fatigue
-the safety belts and a irbag system can offer
maximum protection ¢ page 188.
In the following sections, you will see exactly
how you can
best adjust your seats.
There are special regulations and instructions for
installing a ch ild
seat on the front passenger's
seat. Always follow the information regarding
child
safety provided in ¢ page 212, Child safe
ty .
A WARNING
Incorrect seating position of the driver and all
other passengers can result in serious person
al injury.
- Always keep
your feet on the floor when the
vehicle is in motion - never put your feet on
top of the instrument panel, out of the win
dow or
on top of the seat cushion. This ap
plies especi ally to the passengers. If your
seating pos ition is i nco rrect, you increase
the risk of injury in the case of sudden brak
ing
or an accident. If the airbag inflates and
the seating position is incorr ect, this could
result in personal injury or even death.
-It is important for both the driver and front
passenger to keep a distance of at least
10 in (25 cm) between themselves and the
steering wheel and/or instrument panel. If
yo u'r e sitting any closer than this, the air
bag system cannot protect you properly . In
44
addition, the front seats and head restraints
m ust be adjusted to yo ur body height so
that they can give you maximum protection.
-Always try to keep as much distance as pos
sible
between yourself and the steeri ng
wheel or instrument panel.
-Do not adjust the driver's or front passeng
er's seat while the veh icle is moving. Your
seat may move unexpectedly, causing sud
den loss of vehicle control and personal in
jury. If you adjust yo ur seat while the veh icle
is moving, you are o ut of pos ition.
Driver's seat
The correct seat position is important for safe
and relaxed driving.
We recommend that you adjust the driver's seat
in the following manner:
.... Adjust the seat in fore and aft direction so that
you can easi ly push the pedals to the floor
while keeping your knees slightly
bent¢ f1::::.. in
Why is your seat adjustment so important? on
page
44.
I
.... Adjust the backrest so that when you sit w ith
your back against the backrest, you can still
grasp the top of the steering wheel.
A WARNING
Neve r place any objects in the driver's foot
well. An object could get into the pedal area
and interfere with pedal function . In case of
sudden braking or an accident, you would not
be able to brake or accelerate.
Front passenger's seat
Always move the front passenger seat into the
rearmost position.
-
To avoid con tact wit h the airbag while it is de
ploying ,
do not sit any closer to the instrument
panel than necessary and always wear th e three
po int safety belt provided adjusted correctly . We
r
ecommend that you adjust the passenger's seat
i n the following manner: .,..

son, children should never be left unattend
ed in the veh icle - they could be injur ed!
- Exerc i
se caution when adjusting the seat
height. Unsuperv ised
or careless seat ad
justment can pinch fingers or hands causing
injuries .
Seats and storage
-The front seat backrests must not be re
clined
too far back when driving, because
this impairs the effectiveness of the safety
belts and airbag system, which increases
the risk of injury.
-
To reduce the r isk of i njury during sudden
braking or in a
collis ion, the dri ver and front
passenger should not have their backrests in
the recl ined position while driving or rid ing.
T
he safe ty belts and airbag system can pro
vide the greatest protectio n possib le when
the backrests are in th e upright position and
the safety belts are worn correctly. The
more a backrest is reclined, the greate r
the
risk of injury due to an incorrect seating po
sition and safety
belt position.

Intelligent Technology
Electronic stabilization
control (ESC)
· Description
The Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC) reinfor
ces driver safety. It reduces the risk of slipping
and improves driving stability.
ESC detects criti
cal situations such
as the vehicle oversteering
and understeering or the wheels are spinning.
The vehicle
is stabilized by applying the brakes or
reducing engine torque. Once the ESC is activat
ed,
the indicator light DJ blinks in the instru
ment cluster.
The following systems are integrated in the ESC:
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
ABS prevents the wheels from locking when brak
ing. The vehicle
can still be steered even during
hard braking. Apply steady pressure
to the brake
pedal.
Do not pump the pedal. A pulsing in the
brake pedal indicates that the system is acting to
stabilize the vehicle .
Brake assist system
The brake assist system can decrease braking dis
tance.
It increases braking power when the driver
presses
the brake pedal quickly in emergency sit
uations .
You must press and hold the brake pedal
until the dangerous situation is over.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
ASR reduces engine power when the drive wheels
begin spinning and adapts
the force to the road
conditions. This makes
it easie r to start, acceler
ate and drive up inclines.
Electron ic differential lock (EDL)
EDL applies the brakes to a wheel that starts
spinning and transfers
the drive power to the
other driving wheels. This function is not availa
ble
at higher speeds.
In extreme cases, EDL automatically switches off
to keep the brake on the braked wheel from over
heating . The vehicle
is still working correctly. EDL
Intelligent Technology
will switch on again automatically when condi
tions have returned
to normal.
Steering recommendation
The ESC helps to stabilize the vehicle by changing
the steering torque.
Selective wheel torque control
Selective wheel torque control is used when driv
ing on curves. The
front wheel on the inside of
the curve or both wheels on the inside of the
curve are braked selectively as needed. This al
lows more preci
se driving in curves . The applica
ble system may
not activate when driving in wet
or snowy condit ions.
Automatic post-collision braking system
The "Automatic post-collision braking system"
can help to reduce the risk of sliding and of other
collisions after an accident. If the airbag control
module detects a collision above a certain vehicle
speed,
the vehicle is braked by the ESC.
The vehicle does not brake automatically if:
-the driver presses the accelerator pedal, or
-the braking force generated by the pressed
brake pedal
is greater than the braking force
that would be initiated by the system, or
-the ESC, the brake system or the vehicle electri
cal system are not functioning.
A WARNING ,..:-
-The ESC and its integrated systems cannot
overcome
the limits posed by natura l physi
cal laws. This is especially important on slip
pery o r wet roads. If the systems begin act
ing
to stabilize your vehicle, you should im
mediately alter your speed to match the
road and traffic conditions. Do not let the
increased safety provided tempt you into
taking risks. This could increase your risk of
a collision.
- Please note
the risk of a collision increases
when driving fast, especially through curves
and on slippery
or wet roads, and when driv-
ing
too close to objects ahead. The ESC and .,..
