functionality.
Have damaged components
replaced. After an accident, have the
belts and triggered belt pretensioners

damaged by shoes or sharp-edged
objects or trapped. Prevent dirt from getting into the belt retractors.
Seat belt reminder
Front seats are equipped with a seat
belt reminder, indicated for driver seat
by control indicator X in the
instrument cluster 3 83 and for
passenger seat by control indicator
k on the passenger side of the
instrument panel 3 42.Belt force limiters
Located on the front seats. Stress on the body is reduced by the gradual
release of the belt during a collision.
Belt pretensioners
In the event of a head-on collision or
side impact of a certain severity, the
front seat belts are tightened.9 Warning
Incorrect handling (e.g. removal or
fitting of belts) can trigger the belt
pretensioners.
Deployment of the belt pretensioners
is indicated by illumination of control
indicator v 3 83.
Triggered belt pretensioners must be
replaced by a workshop. Belt
pretensioners can only be triggered
once.
Note
Do not affix or install accessories or
other objects that may interfere with
the operation of the belt
pretensioners. Do not make any
modifications to belt pretensioner
components as this will invalidate
the vehicle type approval.
Three-point seat belt
Fasten
Withdraw the belt from the retractor,
guide it untwisted across the body
and insert the latch plate into the
buckle. Tighten the lap belt regularly
whilst driving by pulling the shoulder
belt.

Seats, restraints45Airbag system
The airbag system consists of a
number of individual systems
depending on the scope of
equipment.
When triggered, the airbags inflate
within milliseconds. They also deflate
so quickly that it is often unnoticeable during the collision.9 Warning
If handled improperly the airbag
systems can be triggered in an
explosive manner.
Note
The airbag systems and belt
pretensioner control electronics are
located in the centre console area.
Do not put any magnetic objects in
this area.
Do not stick anything on the airbag
covers and do not cover them with
other materials.
Each airbag is triggered only once.
Have deployed airbags replaced by
a workshop. Furthermore, it might be
necessary to have the steering
wheel, the instrument panel, parts of
the panelling, the door seals,
handles and the seats replaced.
Do not make any modifications to
the airbag system as this will
invalidate the vehicle type approval.
When the airbags inflate, escaping
hot gases may cause burns.

48Seats, restraints9Danger
Do not use a child restraint system
on the passenger seat with active
front airbag.
Airbag deactivation 3 50.
Front airbag system
The front airbag system consists of
one airbag in the steering wheel and
one in the instrument panel on the
front passenger side. These can be
identified by the word AIRBAG.
The warning label reminds that the
use of rear-facing child restraint
systems on the front passenger seat
is not permitted. Risk of fatal injury.
The front airbag system is triggered in
the event of a front-end impact of a
certain severity. The ignition must be
switched on.
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby considerably
reducing the risk of injury to the upper body and head of the front seat
occupants.
9 Warning
Optimum protection is only
provided when the seat is in the
proper position 3 36.
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.
Fit the seat belt correctly and
engage securely. Only then the
airbag is able to protect.

compartments. Otherwise vehicle
occupants could be injured by
objects being thrown around in the
event of hard braking, a sudden
change in direction or an accident.
Instrument panel storage
Console net
Located in the front passenger foot
well.
Coin storage
Pull handle to open. Push door firmly
to close.
Card holder Located above the coin storage
compartment. A card can be retained
in the slot for convenient use.

70StorageLoading information● Heavy objects in the load compartment should be evenlydistributed and placed as far
forward as possible. Ensure the
backrests are securely engaged.
If objects can be stacked, the
heavier objects should be placed
at the bottom.
With rear seats in the folded position, objects must not be stacked higher than the seat
backrests.
● Secure objects with lashing straps attached to lashing eyes
3 69.
● Secure loose objects in the load compartment, e.g. with a luggagefloor net, to prevent sliding.
● When transporting objects in the load compartment, the backrests
of the rear seats must not be
angled forward.
● Do not allow the load to protrude above the upper edge of the
backrests.● Do not place any objects on the load compartment cover or the
instrument panel, and do not cover the sensor on top of the
instrument panel.
● The load must not obstruct the operation of the pedals, electricalparking brake and gear selector,
or hinder the freedom of
movement of the driver. Do not
place any unsecured objects in
the interior.
● Do not drive with an open load compartment.9Warning
Always make sure that the load in
the vehicle is securely stowed.
Otherwise objects can be thrown
around inside the vehicle and
cause personal injury or damage
to the load or vehicle.
● The payload is the difference
between the permitted gross
vehicle weight (see identification
plate 3 205) and the EC kerb
weight.
To calculate the EC kerb weight,
enter the data for your vehicle in
the weights table at the front of
this manual.
The EC kerb weight includes
weights for the driver (68 kg),
luggage (7 kg) and all fluids (fuel
tank 90% full).
Optional equipment and
accessories increase the kerb
weight.
● Driving with a roof load increases
the sensitivity of the vehicle to
cross-winds and has a
detrimental effect on vehicle
handling due to the vehicle's
higher centre of gravity.
Distribute the load evenly and
secure it properly with retaining
straps. Adjust the tyre pressure
and vehicle speed according to
the load conditions. Check and
retighten the straps frequently.
Do not drive faster than
120 km/h.
The permissible roof load is
100 kg. The roof load is the
combined weight of the roof rack and the load.
