automatically after several seconds if
an electronic key has been
recognised previously inside the
vehicle, all doors have then been
closed and the electronic key does
not remain within the vehicle.
If the electronic key remains in the
vehicle or the ignition is not off,
passive locking will not be permitted.
If there have been two or more
electronic keys in the vehicle and the
ignition was on once, the feature

The seat belts are locked during
heavy acceleration or deceleration of
the vehicle, holding the occupants in
the seat position. Thereby the risk of
injury is considerably reduced.
9 Warning
Fasten seat belt before each trip.
In the event of an accident, people
not wearing seat belts endanger their fellow occupants and
themselves.
Seat belts are designed to be used by only one person at a time.
Child restraint system 3 64.
Periodically check all parts of the belt
system for damage, soiling and
proper functionality.
Have damaged components replaced by a workshop. After an accident,
have the belts and triggered belt
pretensioners replaced by a
workshop.
Note
Make sure that the belts are not
damaged by shoes or sharp-edged objects or trapped. Prevent dirt from getting into the belt retractors.
Seat belt reminder
Indicates seat belt status for front seats by control indicators X and k,
or for rear seats by the symbol X in
the Driver Information Centre 3 105.
Belt force limiters
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, rear-end or
side-on collision of a certain severity,
the front and rear outer seat belts are tightened. The front seat belts and the outer rear seat belts are tightened by
one pretensioner per seat.9 Warning
Incorrect handling (e.g. removal or
fitting of belts) can trigger the belt
pretensioners.
Deployment of the belt pretensioners
is indicated by continuous illumination
of control indicator v 3 106.
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 operating permit of your vehicle.

the backrests onto the seat
cushion.9 Warning
Take care when folding down the
right outer seat backrest if the
centre seat backrest is already

When folding up, ensure that
backrests are securely locked in
position before driving. Failure to
do so may result in personal injury or damage to the load or vehicle in the event of hard braking or a
collision.
