WARNING

The head restraints cannot provide the inten-

ded protection unless they are fitted and

adjusted correctly. There is an increased risk

of injury to the head and neck in the event of

an accident or sudden braking, for example.

Always drive with the head restraints fitted.

Ensure that the centre of the head restraints

support the back of each vehicle occupant's

head at eye level before driving off.

General notes

(Y page 105).

Important safety notes

G

WARNING

If the backrest is not engaged, it could fold

forwards during a braking manoeuvre or in the

event of an accident, for example. The seat

backrest will then push the vehicle occupant

against the seat belt. The seat belt cannot

protect as intended and could result in addi-

tional injury. This poses an increased risk of

injury.

Before each journey, make sure that the back-

rest engages fully as described.

G

WARNING

The seat belt does not offer the intended level

of protection if the backrest is not in the

upright position. When braking or in the event

of an accident, you could slide underneath the

seat belt and sustain abdomen or neck inju-

ries, for example. This poses an increased risk

of injury or even fatal injury.

Adjust the seat properly before beginning

your journey. Always make sure that the seat

is in the upright position.

G

WARNING

When adjusting a seat, you or another vehicle

occupant could become trapped by the guide

rail of the seat, for instance. There is a risk of

injury.

Make sure that no one has any part of their

body within the sweep of the seat when

adjusting it.
