Close the lockable stowage spaces
#
before starting a journey.
Stow and secure objects that are heavy,
#
hard, pointed, sharp-edged, fragile or too
large in the load compartment.
& WARNING Risk of accident from objects in
the driver's footwell and front-passenger
footwell
Objects in the driver's footwell and front-
passenger footwell may impede pedal travel or
block a depressed pedal.
This jeopardises the operating and road safety
of the vehicle.
Stow all objects in the vehicle securely
#
so that they cannot get into the driver's
footwell or front-passenger footwell.
Always fit the floor mats securely and as
#
prescribed in order to ensure that there
is always sufficient clearance for the
pedals.
Do not use loose floor mats and do not
#
lay multiple floor mats on top of one
another.

shutoff: objects trapped under the front-
passenger seat may interfere with the function of
the automatic front-passenger airbag shutoff or
damage the system. Please observe the notes on
the function of the automatic front -passenger air-
bag shutoff ( page 46).
