Index

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.

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 other-
wise be damaged or could themselves dam-
age the rear seats.
Observe the loading guidelines (Y page 305).
The outer and the centre rear seat backrests can be folded down separately to increase the lug-
gage compartment capacity. The division ratio is
40/20/40. 308
