Rear bench seat through-loading fea-
ture
Important safety notes
GWARNING
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.
RThe 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 can no longer offer the intended
level of protection and could even cause
injuries.
RObjects or loads in the trunk cannot be
restrained by the seat backrest.
There is an increased risk of injury.
Before every trip, make sure that the seat
backrests and the rear bench seat/rear seat
are engaged.
!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 (
Ypage 263).
The left and right rear seat backrests can be fol-
ded down separately to increase the trunk capa-
city.
Folding the rear seat backrests forward
XVehicles without memory function: if neces-
sary, move the driver's or front-passenger
seat forward.
XVehicles with memory function: when one or
both parts of the rear seat backrest are folded
forward, the respective front seat moves
forward slightly, when necessary, in order to
avoid contact.
XOpen the trunk.
