& WARNING Risk of injury if the rear
bench seat/rear seat and seat backrest
are not engaged
If the rear bench seat/rear seat and seat
backrest are not engaged they could fold for‐
wards, e.g. when braking suddenly or in the
event of an accident.
If this is the case, the vehicle occupant
R
would be forced into the seat belt by the
rear bench seat/rear seat or by the seat
backrest. The seat belt cannot protect as
intended and could result in additional
injury.
Objects or loads in the boot/load com‐
R
partment cannot be restrained by the
seat backrest.
Make sure that the seat backrest and
#
the rear bench seat/rear seat are
engaged before every trip.
* NOTE Damage caused by trapping the
seat belt when folding back the seat
backrest
The seat belt could become trapped and thus
be damaged when the seat backrest is folded
back.
Make sure that the seat belt is not trap‐
#
ped when folding back the seat back‐
rest.
Requirements:
The seats and the seat backrests on the sec‐
R
ond row of seats have been moved forwards
sufficiently.
* NOTE Damage to the release loops as a
result of attaching objects
The rear seat backrest release loops can be
damaged when objects are attached.
Attach objects only to the tie-down
#
eyes.

#
Pull one of the black release loops

Adjusting the angle of the rear seat backr‐
ests (cargo position)

the seat backrests on the second row of seats
into a steeper angle (cargo position).
