Folding bench seat* in the luggage
compartment (Estate)
The folding bench seat in the luggage com-
partment is only suitable for persons no more
than 1.40 m tall and weighing a maximum of
50 kg.
The maximum permissible weight may be
reduced by extensive optional extras, vehicle
load and trailer towing. Observe the maxi-
mum gross vehicle weight and the permissi-
ble axle load, which can be found on the vehi-
cle identification plate ( page 332).

Version: 2.11.8.1
The combined luggage cover and net must be
fitted if you are using the folding bench seat.
G
Risk of injury
The rear seat backrests must be locked in the
upright position if you are using the folding
bench seat in the luggage compartment.
Only drive when the head restraints in the
folding bench seat are adjusted to the correct
position. Make sure that the centre of the
head restraint supports the seat occupant's
head at about eye level. This can reduce the
risk of injury to a child in the event of an acci-
dent.
Ensure that the seat belt sits correctly on the
body and that it is engaged in the seat belt
buckle.
Never leave children unsupervised in the vehi-
cle. This applies even if they are secured in a
child restraint system.
Secure children as recommended; see "Chil-
dren in the vehicle" section.
G Risk of injury
Only replace damaged covers with genuine
covers.
Make sure that items of luggage and other
objects are sufficiently secured in the luggage
compartment.
Otherwise, the load could injure someone in
the event of sharp braking, a sudden change
in direction or an accident.
