& WARNING Risk of distraction from oper‐
ating integrated communication equip‐
ment while the vehicle is in motion
If you operate communication equipment
integrated in the vehicle when driving, you
will be distracted from the traffic situation.
This could also cause you to lose control of
the vehicle.
Only operate this equipment when the
#
traffic situation permits.
If you cannot be sure of this, stop the
#
vehicle whilst paying attention to road
and traffic conditions and operate the
equipment with the vehicle stationary.
& WARNING Risk of an accident from
operating mobile communication equip‐
ment while the vehicle is in motion
Mobile communications devices distract the
driver from the traffic situation. This could
also cause the driver to lose control of the
vehicle.
As the driver, only operate mobile com‐
#
munications devices when the vehicle is
stationary.
As a vehicle occupant, only use mobile
#
communications devices in the areas
intended for this purpose, e.g. in the
rear passenger compartment.
You must observe the legal requirements for the
country in which you are currently driving when
operating mobile communication equipment in
the vehicle.

& WARNING Risk of injury due to objects
being stowed incorrectly
If objects in the vehicle interior are stowed
incorrectly, they can slide or be thrown
around and hit vehicle occupants. In addi‐
tion, cup holders, open stowage spaces and
mobile phone receptacles cannot always
retain all objects they contain.
There is a risk of injury, particularly in the
event of sudden braking or a sudden change
in direction.
Always stow objects so that they can‐
#
not be thrown around in such situa‐
tions.
Always make sure that objects do not
#
protrude from stowage spaces, luggage
nets or stowage nets.
Close the lockable stowage spaces
#
before starting a journey.
Always stow and secure heavy, hard,
#
pointed, sharp-edged, fragile or bulky
objects in the trunk/load compartment.
