Incorrect adjustment of the rear seat can cause accidents and serious injuries.
• The rear seat should be adjusted only when the vehicle is stationary as the rear seat
could otherwise move unexpectedly while the vehicle is in motion. Furthermore, an
incorrect seating position is adopted while adjusting the seat.
• The rear seat should only be adjusted when there is no one in the direct area.
WARNING
Cigarette lighters in the vehicle could be damaged or accidentally lit. This could lead to
serious burns and other injuries.
• Before adjusting the seats always ensure that there is no lighter on or near the
moveable parts of the seat.
• Before closing stowage areas or compartments always ensure that there is no lighter
in the way.
• Never stow lighters in stowage areas, compartments or on other surfaces in the
vehicle. High surface temperatures, especially in summer, may cause cigarette lighters
to self-ignite.
WARNING
• Items in the luggage compartment could cause damage when pushing the rear seat
forwards or backwards.
• When the rear seat is moved forwards, objects could move into the space between the
seat and luggage compartment floor. Remove any items or objects from this space
before pushing the rear seat back.
