The vehicle is fitted with two
safety belts to ensure occupant
safety. However, they can only
offer protection when adjusted
correctly.
Always make sure that safety
belts are being worn by the
occupants before driving off.
The airbags supplement the
safety belts as an additional
safety device. The airbags are
not a substitute for safety belts.
All belt fastening points are
designed to achieve the best
possible protective effect of the
safety belts with proper use of
the safety belts and correct seat
setting. Notes on sitting safely,
refer to page P.96.Adjusting
• Press the front section
of the button: The back-

General information
Safety information
WARNING
Use of a safety belt to buckle
more than one person will poten-
tially defeat the ability of the
safety belt to serve its protective
function. There is a risk of injuries
or danger to life. Do not allow
more than one person to wear a
single safety belt. Infants and chil-
dren are not allowed on an occu-
pant's lap, but must be
transported and secured in desig-
nated child restraint systems.
WARNING
The efficacy of safety gear, includ-
ing safety belts, can be limited or
lost when safety belts are fas-
tened incorrectly. An incorrectly
fastened safety belt can cause
additional injuries, for instance in
the event of an accident or during
braking and evasive maneuvers.
There is a risk of injuries or dan-
ger to life. Make sure that all
occupants are wearing safety
belts correctly.
WARNING
The efficacy of safety gear, includ-
ing safety belts, may not be fully
functional or fail in the following
situations:
• The safety belts or safety belt buckles are damaged, soiled, or
changed in any other way.
• Belt tensioners or belt retractors were modified.

Mirrors that were folded in are
folded out automatically at a
speed of approx. 25 mph/40
km/h.
Both exterior mirrors are auto-
matically heated as needed and
when the drive-ready state is
switched on. The exterior mirror on the

mirror glass on the front passen-
ger side is tilted downward. This
improves your view of the curb

After installing a child restraint
system, move the front passen-
ger seat as far back as it will go
and, if possible, bring it up to
medium height. This seat posi-
tion and height ensure the best

belt is located in front of the belt
guide of the child seat, move the
front passenger seat carefully forward until the best possible
belt guide position is reached.
Adjustable backrest width:
before installing a child restraint
system in the front passenger
seat, open the backrest width
completely. Do not change the
backrest width again and do not
call up a memory position.

ger's side can be locked to fas-
ten child restraint systems.
