If children adjust the seats, they could
become trapped, especially if they are unat-
tended. There is a risk of injury.
When leaving the vehicle, always take the key
with you and lock the vehicle. Never leave
children unattended in the vehicle.
When adjusting a seat, you or another vehicle
occupant could become trapped by the guide
rail of the seat, for instance. There is a risk of
injury.
Make sure that no one has any part of their
body within the sweep of the seat when
adjusting it.
The head restraints cannot provide the inten-
ded protection unless they are fitted and
adjusted correctly. There is an increased risk
of injury to the head and neck in the event of
an accident or sudden braking, for example.
Always drive with the head restraints fitted.
Ensure that the centre of the head restraints
support the back of each vehicle occupant's
head at eye level before driving off.
If a seat is not engaged, it may be thrown
about while the vehicle is moving. There is a
risk of an accident and injury.
Always make sure that all seats are engaged
as described.
You could lose control of the vehicle while
driving if you:
R
adjust the driver's seat, 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 mirrors and fasten your seat
belt before starting the engine.

To avoid damage to the seats and the seat
heating, observe the following information:
R
do not spill any liquids on the seats. If liquid
is spilled on the seats, dry them as soon as
possible.
R
if the seat covers are damp or wet, do not
switch on the seat heating. The seat heat-
ing should also not be used to dry the seats.
R
clean the seat covers as recommended;
see the "Interior care" section.
R
do not transport heavy loads on the seats.
Do not place sharp objects on the seat
cushions, e.g. knives, nails or tools. The
seats should only be occupied by passen-
gers, if possible.
R
when the seat heating is in operation, do
not cover the seats with insulating materi-
als, e.g. blankets, coats, bags, seat covers,
child seats or booster seats.
!
Make sure that there are no objects in the
footwell under or behind the seats when mov-
ing the seats back. There is a risk that the
seats and/or the objects could be damaged.
Do not place heavy objects on the co-driver's
seat. Otherwise, the seat occupancy sensor may
be activated and the seat belt warning signal
may sound. Therefore, put heavy objects in the
co-driver's footwell.
Observe the notes on the correct positioning of
child restraint systems in the vehicle Operating
Instructions.
Only fit seats in the third row facing forwards.
Set the backrests of the seats in the second row
