Heated front seats
The heated front seats can be switched on and off as required. When switched on, the system senses the
ambient temperature and regulates the level of heat applied. When the optimum temperature is reached,
the heating switches off. While driving, the seat heating for the passenger seat should be switched off
when the seat is not occupied.
Parking brake lever
Parking brake (hand brake)
The lever is situated between the front seats. The brake is applied to the rear wheels.
WARNING!
Always use the parking brake (hand brake) when parking. On hills, also turn the front wheels toward
the curb.
The indicator light in the instrument panel will light up even if the parking brake is only applied
slightly. Be sure to pull the lever up sufficiently.
