PRE-SAFE
®
(anticipatory occupant
protection)
Introduction
PRE-SAFE ® takes pre-emptive measures to
protect occupants in certain hazardous sit-
uations.
Important safety notes
!
Make sure that there are no objects in the
footwell under or behind the seats when
moving the seats back. There is a risk that
the seats and/or the objects could be dam-
aged.
Although your vehicle is equipped with a PRE-
SAFE ® system, the possibility of injury in the
event of an accident cannot be ruled out.
Always adapt your driving style to suit the
prevailing road and weather conditions and
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in
front. Drive carefully.

tion under "Belt adjustment" (
