steering wheel or mirrors
R fasten the seat belt
There is a risk of an accident.
Adjust the driver's seat, head restraint, steer-
ing wheel and mirror and fasten your seat belt before starting the engine.

for a maximum of two seconds when the vehicleis in motion. The seat fore-and-aft adjustment
can then no longer be set. G
WARNING
If you adjust the seat height carelessly, you or other vehicle occupants could be trapped andthereby injured. Children in particular could
accidentally press the electrical seat adjust-
ment buttons and become trapped. There is a
risk of injury.
While moving the seats, make sure that your
hands or other body parts do not get under the
lever assembly of the seat adjustment sys-
tem. G
WARNING
If head restraints are not adjusted correctly,
they cannot provide protection as intended.
There is an increased risk of injury in the head
and neck area, e.g. in the event of an accident or when braking.
Before driving off, make sure for every vehicle
occupant that the center of the head restraint supports the back of the head at about eye
level.
Using the fore-and-aft adjustment, adjust the
head restraint so that it is as close as possible to your head. G
WARNING
The seat belt does not offer the intended level of protection if you have not moved the back-
rest to an almost vertical position. When brak- ing or in the event of an accident, you could
slide underneath the seat belt and sustain
abdomen or neck injuries, for example. This
poses an increased risk of injury or even fatal
injury.
Adjust the seat properly before beginning
your journey. Always ensure that the backrestis in an almost vertical position and that the
shoulder section of your seat belt is routed
across the center of your shoulder.
