& WARNING Risk of injury or death due to
an incorrect seat position
The seat belt does not offer the intended
level of protection if you have not moved the
seat backrest to an almost vertical position.
In particular, you could slip beneath the seat‐
belt and become injured.
#
Adjust the seat properly before begin‐
ning your journey.
#
Always ensure that the seat backrest is
in an almost vertical position and that
the shoulder belt is routed across the
center of your shoulder.
The switches for adjusting the seats do not
move. You will therefore receive no direct feed‐
back on the switch while pressing the switch.
