WARNING
If you move a rear seat while driving, the seat
may move in an unexpected or jerking man-
ner, for instance when braking. You could
become trapped or could be thrown against
parts of the vehicle interior or against other
vehicle occupants. There is a risk of injury.
Move a rear seat only when the vehicle is sta-
tionary. Make sure that the rear seat is
engaged after it is moved.

WARNING
If you move a rear seat or the rear bench seat
back or forward outside of the tolerance
range by more than 5 cm from the marked
standard position, the seatbelts cannot per-
form their intended protective function. In this
case, passengers may not use the seat in
question. There is an increased risk of injury,
possibly even fatal.
If a passenger is using this seat, make sure
that the rear seat or the rear bench seat is
engaged within the marked tolerance range.
Starting from the standard position, a rear seat
for passengers can be moved forwards or back-
wards by 5 cm. In doing so, make sure that pas-
sengers have sufficient legroom to reduce the
risk of injury during braking.
If you slide the rear seat forwards or backwards
by more than 5 cm you can increase the size of
the load compartment. In this case, passengers
may not use the rear seat.
