Cargo compartment
Important safety notes
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.
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.
!Do not exceed the lower tailgate maximum
load of 220 lbs (100 kg). It may otherwise
become damaged.
!The tailgates swings backwards, upwards
and downwards when opened. Therefore,
make sure that there is sufficient space
above, behind and under the tailgates.
iThe opening dimensions of the tailgate
can be found in the "Vehicle data" section
(
Ypage 212).
Preferably stow luggage or loads in the lug-
gage compartment. Observe the loading
guidelines (
Ypage 142).
Do not leave the SmartKey in the cargo com-
partment. You could otherwise lock yourself
out.

Side window reversing feature
In vehicles with the convenience feature, theside windows are equipped with an automatic
reversing feature. If a solid object blocks or
restricts a side window from traveling
upwards during the automatic closing proc-
ess, the side window opens again automati-
cally. During the manual closing process, the side window only opens again automatically
after the corresponding switch is released.
The automatic reversing feature is only an
aid and is no substitute for your attention
when closing a side window.
GWARNING
The reversing feature does not react:
Rto soft, light and thin objects, e.g. small
fingers
Rwhile resetting
This means that the reversing feature can-
not prevent someone being trapped in these
situations. There is a risk of injury.
Make sure that no body parts are in close
proximity during the closing procedure. If
someone becomes trapped, press the switch
to open the side window again.
GWARNING
If you close a side window again immedi-
ately after it has been blocked or reset, the
side window closes with increased or max-
imum force. The reversing feature is then
not active. Parts of the body could be trap-
ped in the closing area in the process. This
poses an increased risk of injury or even
fatal injury.
Make sure that no parts of the body are in
the closing area. To stop the closing proc- ess, release the switch or push the switch
again to reopen the side window.
Opening or closing the side windows
The switches for both side windows are loca-
ted on the driver's door. There is also a
switch for the front-passenger side window
on the front-passenger door. The switch on the driver’s door takes prece-
dence.

Replacing bulbs
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Bulbs, lamps and connectors can get very
hot when operating. If you change a bulb,
you could burn yourself on these compo-
nents. There is a risk of injury.
Allow these components to cool down before changing a bulb.
Do not use a bulb that has been dropped or if
its glass tube has been scratched.
The bulb may explode if:
Ryou touch it
Rit is hot
Ryou drop it
Ryou scratch it
Only operate bulbs in enclosed lamps
designed for that purpose. Only fit spare
bulbs of the same type and the specified volt-
age.
Marks on the glass tube reduce the service
life of the bulbs. Do not touch the glass tube
with your bare hands. If necessary, clean the
glass tube when cold with alcohol or spirit
and rub it off with a lint-free cloth.
Protect bulbs from moisture during opera-
tion. Do not allow bulbs to come into contact
with liquids.
Replace only the bulbs listed (
Ypage 70).
If you require assistance replacing bulbs,
consult a qualified specialist workshop.
If the new bulb still does not light up, consult
a qualified specialist workshop.
The daytime driving lights and part of the
rear light clusters of your vehicle are equip-
ped with LED light bulbs. Do not replace these
bulbs yourself. Contact a qualified special-
ist workshop which has the necessary spe-
cialist knowledge and tools to carry out the
work required.
Headlamps and lamps are an important aspect
of vehicle safety. You must therefore make
sure that these function correctly at all
times. Have the headlamp setting checked
regularly.
Overview: changing bulbs/bulb types
You can replace the following bulbs. The bulb
type can be found in the legend.
