Ensure that nothing prevents the
seat from folding, e.g. sun visor
3 43, cup holder 3 73.
To restore, pull release lever, raise
backrest then release the lever. Allow the backrest to engage audibly.9 Warning
When the front passenger seat is
in the folded position, the front
passenger airbag system must be deactivated.
Airbag deactivation 3 62.
Armrest
Raise or lower the armrest as
required.
Heating
Press ß for the respective seat when
the engine is running; LED in switch
illuminates. Press other end of rocker switch to turn seat heating off.
Seat heating is thermostatically
controlled and switches off
automatically when seat temperature
is sufficient.
Prolonged use for people with
sensitive skin is not recommended.
Seats, restraints63Press the switch in and rotate to
choose the position:* OFF:front passenger seat airbag
system is deactivated and
will not inflate in the event of a collision. Control indicator
* OFF illuminates
continuously in the roof
console 3 92, 3 95 and
a corresponding message
appears in the Driver
Information Centre 3 100.Ó ON:front passenger airbag
system is active.9 Danger
Deactivate passenger airbag only
in combination with the use of a
child restraint system, subject to
the instructions and restrictions in
the table 3 66.
Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal
injury for a person occupying a
seat with a deactivated front
passenger airbag.
If control indicator ÓON illuminates
after the ignition is switched on and
control indicator *OFF is not
illuminated, the front passenger
airbag system will inflate in the event
of a collision.
If both control indicators ÓON and
* OFF are illuminated
simultaneously, there is a system
failure. The status of the system is not discernible, therefore no person is
permitted to occupy the front
passenger seat. Contact a workshop immediately.
If control indicator F 3 96
illuminates together with v 3 95,
this indicates a fault within the
system. The switch position may have been changed inadvertently with the
ignition on. Turn ignition off and on
again and reset the switch position. If
F and v still remain illuminated, seek
the assistance of a workshop.
Change status only when the vehicle
is stopped with the ignition off. Status remains until the next change.

Child restraint systems9 Danger
If using a rear-facing child restraint
system on the front passenger
seat, the airbag system for the
front passenger seat must be
deactivated. This also applies to certain forward-facing child
restraint systems as indicated in
the table 3 66.
Airbag deactivation 3 62.
Airbag label 3 57.
We recommend a child restraint system which is tailored specifically to the vehicle. For further information,
contact your workshop.
When a child restraint system is being
used, pay attention to the following
usage and installation instructions
and also those supplied with the child
restraint system.
