Starting from basic position

, the rear bench
seat for passengers can be moved forwards or
backwards by 5 cm. In doing so, make sure that
passengers have sufficient legroom to reduce
the risk of injury during braking.
Increasing the load compartment capa-
city by positioning the seats outside the
optimum area of protection
The restraint systems, such as airbags and seat
belts, only provide optimum protection when
the rear bench seat is positioned within the
default markings on the guide rails (optimum
area of protection). It is recommended that the
rear bench seat is positioned within the mark-
ings on the guide rails.
If you slide the rear seat bench forwards or
backwards by more than 5 cm you can increase
the size of the load compartment.
If the rear bench seat is then being used by pas-
sengers, make sure that there is always suffi-
cient space for the knees of the respective
passenger. A distance of at least 5 cm
:
between the knees of the passenger and front
seat must be maintained so that individuals of
various heights are afforded a minimum level of
safety. Always maintain the minimum distance
when the rear bench seat is occupied by pas-
sengers. If the minimum distance is not main-
tained, there is the risk of injury in the event of
an accident or when braking as a result of the
passenger's head striking the seat in front.
