Useful information
i
This Operator's Manual describes all
models and all standard and optional
equipment of your vehicle available at the
time of publication of the Operator's Man- ual. Country-specific differences are pos-
sible. Bear in mind that your vehicle may
not feature all functions described here.
This also applies to safety-relevant sys-
tems and functions.

cialist workshops: (Ypage 20).
Stowage areas
Loading guidelines
GWARNING
If objects, luggage or loads are not secured or not secured sufficiently, they could
slip, tip over or be flung around and
thereby hit vehicle occupants. There is a
risk of injury, particularly in the event of
sudden braking or a sudden change in
direction.
Always store objects so that they cannot be
flung around. Secure objects, luggage or
loads against slipping or tipping before
the journey.
GWARNING
Combustion engines emit poisonous
exhaust gases such as carbon monoxide. If
the tailgate is open when the engine is
running, particularly if the vehicle is
moving, exhaust fumes could enter the
passenger compartment. There is a risk of
poisoning.
Turn off the engine before opening the
tailgate. Never drive with the tailgate
open.
Your vehicle has not been approved by the
manufacturer for towing a trailer. A trailer
could seriously impair driving safety.
Mounting a basic rack, a cycle rack or a ski/
snowboard rack on the rear of the vehicle will change the axle load distribution as speci-
fied by the vehicle manufacturer. Read the
operating instructions for the individual
accessories.
The handling characteristics of a laden vehi-
cle are dependent on the distribution of the
load within the vehicle. For this reason, you
should observe the following notes when
transporting a load:
Rnever exceed the maximum permissible
gross vehicle weight or the permissible
axle loads for the vehicle (including occu-
pants). The values are specified on the
vehicle identification plate on the B-pil-
lar of the driver's door
Rthe load must not protrude above the upper
edge of the head restraints
Rensure that no items of luggage can enter
the vehicle interior above or between the
front seats
Rensure that loaded objects are stowed
safely and are secured
Rload heavy objects at the bottom and light
objects at the top
Stowage space
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you stow objects in the vehicle interior
in an unsuitable way, they could slip or be
thrown around and thus hit vehicle occu-
pants. Additionally, the cup holders, open
stowage spaces and mobile phone brackets
cannot restrain the objects placed in them
in the event of an accident. There is a risk
of injury, especially in the event of brak-
ing or sudden changes in direction.
RAlways stow objects so they cannot be
thrown around in these or similar situa-
tions.
RAlways ensure that objects do not pro-
trude from the stowage compartments or
stowage nets.
142Stowage areas
>> Stowage and features.

RAll closable stowage compartments
should be closed before beginning your
journey.
RAlways stow and secure heavy, hard, poin-
ted, sharp-edged, fragile objects or
objects which are too large behind the
last bench seat or under the passenger
seats.
Observe the loading guidelines (
Ypage 142).

Cargo compartment cover
Important safety notes
GWARNING
The trunk cover alone cannot retain or
secure any heavy objects, items of luggage
or heavy loads. You may be struck by unse-
cured loads in the event of sudden changes
in direction, braking or an accident. There is a risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Always stow objects in such a way that they
cannot be thrown around. Secure objects,
luggage or loads by, for example, lashing
them down to prevent them from slipping or
tipping over, even if you use the trunk
cover.
Observe the loading guidelines (
Ypage 142).
The trunk cover:
Rconceals objects in the vehicle's trunk
Rprevents smaller objects from slipping
from the trunk into the vehicle interior,
but will not restrain loads in the event of
an accident The luggage net bag:
Rserves to hold small, light objects
Rprevents smaller objects from slipping
within the vehicle interior
Fitting
If you use the trunk cover under normal cir-
cumstances, install it in brackets
0044. If you
do not need to use the trunk cover, install it in brackets 0087.
XFor easier fitting, fold the front-
passenger seat backrests forwards
(
Ypage 63).
XOpen the upper and lower tailgate
(Ypage 57).
XHold trunk cover 0043in the trunk with the
luggage net bag at the front.

Features
Cup holder
Important safety notes
GWARNING
The cup holder cannot hold a container
secure whilst traveling. If you use a cup
holder whilst traveling, the container may
be flung around and liquid may be spilled.
The vehicle occupants may come into con-
tact with the liquid and if it is hot, they
may be scalded. You may be distracted from
the traffic conditions and you could lose
control of the vehicle. There is a risk of an
accident and injury.
Only use the cup holder when the vehicle is stationary. Only use the cup holder for con-
tainers of the right size. Always close the
container, particularly if the liquid is
hot.
GWARNING
If you transport objects in the vehicle
interior and these are not adequately
secured, they could slip or be flung around
and thereby strike vehicle occupants. In
addition, cup holders, open stowage spaces and mobile phone brackets may not always
be able to hold the objects placed in them
in the event of an accident. There is a risk
of injury, particularly in the event of sharp
braking or sudden changes of direction.
RAlways stow objects in such a way that
they cannot be tossed about in these or
similar situations.
RAlways make sure that objects do not pro-
trude out of the stowage spaces, luggage
nets or stowage nets.
REnsure that closable stowage spaces are
shut before beginning your journey.
RAlways stow and secure heavy, hard, poin-
ted, sharp-edged, fragile or large
objects in the cargo compartment.
!Only use the cup holders for containers of
the right size and which have lids. The
drinks could otherwise spill.
Observe the loading guidelines (
Ypage 142).
