Leather is a natural product. It exhibits natural
surface properties, e. g. differences in struc-
ture, marks caused by growth and injury or
subtle colour differences. These surface prop-
erties are characteristics of leather and not
material faults. What's more, leather is sub-
ject to a natural ageing process during which
the surface properties change.
The driving characteristics of your vehicle are
dependent on the distribution of the load within
the vehicle. You should bear the following in mind
when loading the vehicle:
Do not exceed the permissible total mass or
R
the permissible axle loads of the vehicle
(including load and occupants).
information can be found on the vehicle identi-
fication plate ( page 401).
/
The load must not protrude above the upper
R
edge of the seat backrests.
Always place the load behind unoccupied
R
seats if possible.
