Safety net
*
The safety net prevents loads from being thrown
forward in the passenger compartment in the
event of sudden braking.
The safety net is fitted into four mounting points.
For reasons of safety, the safety net must always
be fastened and anchored as described below.
The net is made of a strong nylon fabric and can
be secured two different locations in the car:
•
Rear fitting - behind the rear seat.
•
Front fitting - behind the front seats.
WARNING
Loads in the luggage compartment must be
anchored well, and also using a correctly fit-
ted safety net.
Installation
WARNING
It is necessary to ensure that the upper secur-
ing points of the safety net are fitted correctly
and that the puller-straps are hooked in prop-
erly.
Damaged safety nets must not be used.
NOTE
With forward mounting, the safety net is most
easily mounted via one of the rear doors.
1. Unfold the safety net and make sure that the
split upper rod in the net is locked in its
extended position.
2. Hook one retaining hook of the net into the
front or rear roof mounting with the anchor-
ing strap locks turned towards you.
3. Hook the net's other retaining hook into the
roof mounting on the opposite side - the
telescopic spring-loaded retaining hooks
facilitate alignment.
Take care to press forward the net's retain-
ing hooks for each respective roof moun-
ting's front end position.
4. Rear fitting: With the net fitted in the rear
roof mountings, hook the safety net's anchor-
ing straps into the front floor eyes in the
cargo area.
Rear fitting.
Front fitting: With the net fitted in the front
roof mountings, hook the anchoring straps
into the outer eyes on the rear of the seat
slide rails - it is easier if the backrests are
straightened and the seats are moved for-
ward slightly.
