& WARNING Risk of injury due to head
restraints not being fitted or being adjus‐
ted incorrectly
If head restraints have not been installed or
have not been adjusted correctly, there is an
increased risk of injury in the head and neck
area, e.g. in the event of an accident or when
braking.
Always drive with the head restraints fit‐
#
ted.
Before driving off, make sure for every
#
vehicle occupant that the centre of the
head restraint supports the back of the
head at about eye level.
Do not interchange the head restraints of the
front and rear seats. Otherwise, you will not be
able to set the height and inclination of the head
restraints to the correct position.
& WARNING Risk of burns from hot ampli‐
fiers under the driver's seat
Vehicles with amplifiers under the driver's
seat:
The amplifier can become hot during opera‐
tion.
You could burn yourself if you touch the
amplifier.
Do not reach underneath the driver's
#
seat.
Adjust the driver's seat carefully.
