for the driver and the passengers. The other
sections of the on-board documentation also
contain further information that you should
be aware of for your own safety and for the

p
a
ssen
gers, always note the following points
before every trip: –
Make sur
e that the vehicle's lights and turn
signals are working properly.
– Check tyre pressure.
– Ensure that all windows provide a clear and
good view of
the surroundings.
– Ensure that all luggage is correctly secured
››› p

– Make sure that no objects can interfere
with the pedals.
– Adju
st front seat, head restraint and mir-
rors pr
operly according to your size.
– Ensure that the passenger in the central
rear seat
always has the head restraint in
the correct position for use.
– Instruct passengers to adjust the head re-
straints ac
cording to their height.
– Protect children with appropriate child
seats and properly
applied seat belts
››› page 72.
– Assume the correct sitting position. Instruct
your pas
sengers also to assume a proper
sitting position. ››› page 57.
– Fasten your seat belt securely. Instruct your
passen
gers also to fasten their seat belts
properly. ››› page 61. What affects driving safety? As a driver, you are responsible for yourself
and your p
a
ssengers. When your concentra-
tion or driving safety is affected by any cir-
cumstance, you endanger yourself as well as
others on the road ››› , for this reason:
– Always pay attention to traffic and do not
get di s
tracted by passengers or telephone
calls.
– Never drive when your driving ability is im-
paired (e.g. b
y medication, alcohol, drugs).
– Observe traffic laws and speed limits.
– Always reduce your speed as appropriate
for ro a
d, traffic and weather conditions.
– When travelling long distances, take
breaks
regularly - at least every two hours.
– If possible, avoid driving when you are tired
or stres
sed. WARNING
When driving safety is impaired during a trip,
the risk of injur
y and accidents increases. Safety equipment

Airbag system
If any of the airbags are disabled by a Techni-
c al
Ser
vice, the warning lamp flashes for sev-
eral more seconds after verification and will
turn off if there is no fault. WARNING
● If there i s
a malfunction, the airbag and
belt tensioner system cannot properly per-
form its protective function.
● If a malfunction occurs, have the system
checked immedi
ately by a specialised work-
shop. Otherwise, in the event of an accident,
the airbag system and belt tensioners may
not be triggered, or may not be triggered cor-
rectly. Airbag safety instructions

p
age 15. WARNING
● If y ou do not
wear a seat belt, if you lean
forward, or are not seated correctly while the
vehicle is in motion, you are at a greater risk
of injury if the side airbag system is triggered
in an accident.
● In order for the side airbags to provide their
maximum prot
ection, the prescribed sitting
position must always be maintained with
seat belts fastened while travelling.
● Occupants of the outer seats must never
carry an
y objects or pets in the deployment
space between them and the airbags, or al-
low children or other passengers to travel in
this position. It is also important not to at-
tach any accessories (such as cup holders) to the doors. This would impair the protection
offered b
y
the side airbags.
● The built-in coat hooks should be used only
for lightweight c
lothing. Do not leave any
heavy or sharp-edged objects in the pockets.
● Great forces, such as hard blows or kicks,
must not
be exerted upon the backrest bol-
ster because the system may be damaged. In
this case, the side airbags would not be trig-
gered.
● Under no circumstances should protective
cover
s be fitted over seats with side airbags
unless the covers have been approved for use
in your vehicle. Because the airbag deploys
from the side of the backrest, the use of con-
ventional seat covers would obstruct the side
airbag, seriously reducing the airbag's effec-
tiveness.
● Any damage to the original seat upholstery
or around the seams
of the side airbag units
must be repaired immediately by a special-
ised workshop.
● The airbags provide protection for just one
accident; rep
lace them once they have de-
ployed.
● Any work on the side airbag system or re-
moval
and installation of the airbag compo-
nents for other repairs (such as removal of
the front seat) should only be performed by a
specialised workshop. Otherwise, faults may
occur during the airbag system operation.
● Do not attempt to modify components of
the airbag syst
em in any way. » 69
