Never leave the seat backrest in the
reclined position while driving the vehicle;
the diagonal belt would not lie in an
effective position against the body.
Having the seat backrest in a reclined
position could increase the risk of serious
injury.
In the event of an accident, you could be
thrown against the belt and suffer injuries
to your neck or other serious or fatal
injuries.
Having the seat backrest in a
reclined
position also increases the risk of being
thrown for ward, slipping under the lap belt,
giving rise to serious internal injuries.
The seat backrest must be in the vertical
position to ensure effective protection
while driving.
It is essential to sit fully down in the seat
so that the lap seat belt is able to work
effectively in the event of an accident.
Driving with a
seat in the "sleeping"
position is prohibited.
Adjust the seat to your wishes with the
backrest reclined no more than necessary
for comfort. After adjustment, try to gently tip the seat
backrest back and for ward to ensure that
it has locked into position.
Front head restraints
Adjusting a front seat head restraint:
- T o raise a head restraint, pull it upwards.
-
T
o remove the head restraint, press the lug
and pull the head restraint upwards.
-
T
o put it back in place, engage the head
restraint rods in the openings keeping them
in line with the seat backrest.
-
T
o lower it, press on the lug and on the head
restraint at the same time.
Never adjust the head restraints while the
vehicle is moving. Driving without the head
restraints in place is strictly prohibited. Before setting off, check that each
passenger's head restraint is present and
correctly adjusted.
Access to the rear seats
To access the rear bench seat of your
E-MEHARI: pull the seat tipping lever of one of
the two front seats.
Then tip the seat for ward to give access to the
rear bench seat of your E-MEHARI.
To return the seat to the normal position: guide
the seat backrest to its initial position.
Ensure that the seat has latched home
correctly before moving off.

Folding rear bench seat
Your E-MEHARI has been type-approved as
a four-seat vehicle.
The rear bench seat is a
folding bench seat for
two people.
Only the backrest folds, the cushion remains
fixed.
Your E-MEHARI has been type-approved
for use on European roads carrying up to
4
people: the driver and three passengers.
You must never carry more than two
people on the bench rear seat.
Your E-MEHARI is fitted with 2
rear seat
belts.
Any additional passenger, who would
not be restrained, would risk serious or
fatal injuries and also risk injuring other
occupants of the vehicle.
Operation
Pull the controls (1) on each side of the bench
seat to release the latches (2) .
Fold the backrest (3) forward.
Adjusting the rear head
restraints
- To raise a head restraint: pull it up to the
desired position.
-
T
o lower a head restraint: push it down to
the desired position.
Never adjust the head restraints while the
vehicle is moving.
Take care not to trap the seat belts and
position the seat belt buckles correctly
before folding the backrest.
Steering wheel
(adjustment)
The height and reach of your E-MEHARI's
steering wheel are adjustable. Do not adjust the steering wheel while
driving the vehicle: this would risk causing
a
loss of control of the vehicle and could
lead to an accident.
