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 beginning
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.

NOTE Damage to the seats when moving
the seats back
The seats may be damaged by objects when

under or behind the seats.

, set the body weight
(88 lb (40 kg) to 265 lb (120 kg)) so that the
seat suspension works optimally. If you set a
higher weight, the seat suspension will become
firmer. The seat will then not vibrate as much.
If the seat vibrates often and significantly, you
can engage it in the lower area.
#
To engage vibration limiting: turn lever

upwards.
The next time the seat vibrates, it will engage.
#
To release vibration limiting: turn lever
