Fig.
208 Adjust seat and sit in correct position
For your own safety, and to reduce the risk of in­
jury in the event of an accident, we recommend
the following driving position.

•
Adjust the driver's seat and steering wheel so
there is a distance of at least 25 cm between
your breastbone and the centre of the steering

wheel
o>F/g.
208.

•
Adjust the height and fore/aft position of the
driver's seat so that you are able to press the
pedals to the floor without fully straightening
your legs
oA.

•
Adjust the backrest to an upright position so
that your back remains in contact with the up­
holstery.

*•
Adjust the longitudinal position of the steering
wheel so that your arms are slightly bent and
you can read the dials and instruments easily.

•
Make sure that you can comfortably reach the
top of the steering wheel.

•
AppLies to adjustable head restraints: Adjust
the head restraint so that the top of the head
restraint is
level
with the top of your head. If
this is not possible, try to adjust the head re­
straint as near as possible to this position.

•
Fasten your seat belt correctly
^>page
275.

•
Keep both feet in the footwell so that you are in
full controL of the vehicle at all times.
For detailed information on how to adjust the
driver's seat, see
^>page
58, Front seats.
A WARNING
A driver who is not sitting in the correct
posi­

tion or who is not wearing a seat belt can be
fatally injured
if
the airbag is triggered.
- Adjust the driver's seat and steering wheel
so there is a distance of at least 25 cm be­
tween your breastbone and the centre of the
steering wheel
^>Fig.
208.
-While driving, always hold the steering
wheel with both hands on the outside of the
rim at about the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock
posi­

tion.
This reduces the risk of injury if the
driver's airbag inflates.
- Never hold the steering wheel at the 12
o'clock position, or with your hands inside
the rim or on the steering wheel hub. This
could result in serious injuries to the arms,
hands and head if the driver's airbag in­

flates.

- To reduce any risk of injury to the driver dur­
ing a sudden brake application or in an
acci­

dent, never drive with the backrest tilted
too far back. The airbag system and seat
belts can only provide proper protection
when the backrest is in an upright position
and the driver is wearing the seat belt in the
correct position. The further the backrest is
tilted back, the greater the risk of injury due
to incorrect positioning of the belt webbing
or an incorrect sitting position.
- Adjust the head restraint properly so that it
can give maximum protection.
Correct position for the front passenger

The
front seat passenger must sit at least 25 cm
away from the dash panel so that the airbag has
enough room to inflate and give maximum pro­
tection in an accident.
For your own safety and to reduce the risk of in­
jury in the event of
an
accident, we recommend
adjusting the front passenger's seat as follows:

•
Adjust the backrest to an upright position so
that your back remains in contact with the up­
holstery.

•
Adjust the head restraint so that the top of the
head restraint is level with the top of your

Safe driving

•
Distribute the load evenly in the luggage com­
partment.

•
Place heavy items as far forward as possible in
the luggage compartment and secure them
properly
<^>Fig.
214.

•
Secure the load with the stretch net* or with
non-elastic straps secured to the fastening
rings
^>page

© CAUTION
A WARNING
- Loose items in the luggage compartment
are a safety hazard: they can move suddenly
and impair the handling of the vehicLe as a
result of the change in weight distribution.
- In an accident or a sudden manoeuvre, loose
objects in the passenger compartment can
be flung forward - risk of injury! Always
stow objects safely in the luggage compart­
ment and secure them on the fastening

rings.
Use suitable securing straps, particu­
larly when transporting heavy objects.
- Transporting heavy objects may affect the
vehicle's handling by shifting the centre of
gravity - this could cause an accident. Take
extra care when driving and adjust your
speed accordingly.
- Never exceed the maximum axle loads or
the maximum gross weight for the vehicLe

^>page
342. Exceeding the permitted axle
loads or gross weight Limit can affect the ve­
hicle's handling characteristics, and increase
the risk of accidents, personal injuries or
damage to the vehicle.
- Never leave your vehicLe unattended when
the boot lid is open. Children could climb in­
to the boot and close the boot lid from the

inside.
In this case the child would be un­
able to get out of the vehicle without help.
This could have fatal consequences.
- Never allow children to play in or around the
vehicle. Always close and lock the boot lid
and all the doors when you leave the
vehi­

cle.

- Never let passengers ride in the luggage
compartment. All occupants must be prop­
erly restrained by the seat belts at all times

•=>
page
27'5.

Make sure that no hard objects chafe against
the wires of the heating element in the rear
window and damage them.
©
Note

- The tyre pressure must be adjusted accord­
ing to the load the vehicle is carrying

<^>page
307.
- Air circulation in the vehicle helps reduce
fogging of the windows. Used air escapes
through ventilation slots in the rear of the
vehicle. Make sure that these ventilation
slots are not obstructed.
- Suitable belts for securing loads to the fas­
tening rings* are commercially available.
Fastening rings
Unsecured loads are a hazard to all vehicle occu­
pants.
There are fastening rings in the luggage com­
partment which can be used to secure luggage
and other objects
^>page
62.

•
Use the fastening rings to secure items safely
in the luggage compartment
<=> A.

During a collision or an accident, even small and
light objects can possess so much energy that
they can cause very severe injuries. The amount
of this "kinetic energy" depends on the speed of
the vehicLe and the weight of the object. The
most significant factor, however, is the speed of
the vehicLe.
For example: an object weighing 4.5 kg is lying
unsecured in the vehicle. During a frontal
colli­

sion at a speed of 50 km/h, this object generates
a force corresponding to 20 times its weight.
That means that the effective weight of the ob­
ject increases to about 90 kg. You can imagine
the severity of the injuries which might be sus­
tained if this "projectile" strikes an occupant as it
flies through the passenger compartment. •
