G WARNING
The cup holder cannot secure a drinks con-
tainer in place during a journey. If you use a
cup holder during a journey, the drinks con-
tainer could be flung around and liquid could
be spilt. Vehicle occupants could come into
contact with the liquid and, in particular, be
scalded by hot liquid. You could be distracted
from the traffic situation and lose control of
the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident and
injury.
Only use the cup holder when the vehicle is
stationary. Only place containers of a suitable
size in the cup holder. Seal the container, in
particular when it contains hot liquid.
! Only use the cup holders for containers of
the right size and which have lids. The
drinks could otherwise spill.
G WARNING
If objects in the passenger compartment are
stowed incorrectly, they can slide or be
thrown around and hit vehicle occupants.
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 cannot be
R
thrown around in such situations.
Always make sure that objects do not pro-
R
trude from stowage spaces, luggage nets or
stowage nets.
