2. Push the corresponding head restraint fully
down, see page 39.
3. To release, pull the corresponding lever in
the luggage compartment.
4. The released seat back moves forward
slightly. Fold the seat back forward at the
head restraint.
When folding back up, make sure that the
catch engages properly, otherwise even
braking or swerving, for example, could cause
items of luggage to be displaced forwards into
the interior compartment, endangering the
occupants.<
There are lashing eyes in the luggage compart-
*
ment to which a net or retaining straps can be
attached when loads have to be secured, see
page 99.

Ski bag*

This enables up to four pairs of standard skis or
up to two snowboards to be carried safely and
kept clean.
You can stow skis up to a length of 2.10 m (7 ft)
with the aid of the ski bag. If skis of this length
are carried, however, the capacity of the ski bag
is lower in view of its tapered design.
