seat and the child is secured in a child

restraint system with transponders for

automatic child seat recognition

R

If you secure a forward-facing child

restraint system to the front-passenger

seat, you must move the front-passenger

seat as far back as possible. When doing

so, ensure that the shoulder belt strap from

the belt outlet on the vehicle is routed

towards the front to the shoulder belt guide

on the child restraint system. Set the belt

height adjustment so that the belt strap is

routed towards the front along the bottom.

R

Children must never travel sitting on the lap

of another occupant. Due to the forces

which occur in the event of a sudden

change of direction, heavy braking or an

accident, it would not be possible to

restrain the child. The child could be thrown

against parts of the vehicle interior and be

seriously or even fatally injured.

G

WARNING

If the child restraint system is incorrectly fit-

ted on the seat position suitable for this pur-

pose, it cannot perform its intended protec-

tive function. In the event of an accident,

sharp braking or a sudden change in direction,

the child may not be held securely. There is

an increased risk of serious or even fatal inju-

ries.

Observe the manufacturer's installation

instructions and the correct use for the child

restraint system. Make sure that the entire

surface of the child restraint system is resting

on the seat surface. Never place objects

under or behind the child restraint system,

e.g. cushions. Only use child restraint sys-

tems with the original cover designed for

them. Only replace damaged covers with gen-

uine covers.

G

WARNING

If the child restraint system is fitted incor-

rectly or is not secured, it can come loose in

the event of an accident, heavy braking or a

sudden change in direction. The child

restraint system could be thrown about, strik-

ing vehicle occupants. There is an increased

risk of injury, possibly even fatal.

Always fit child restraint systems properly,

even if they are not being used. Make sure

that you observe the child restraint system

manufacturer's installation instructions.

G

WARNING

Child restraint systems or their securing sys-

tems that have been damaged or subjected to

a load in an accident cannot perform their

intended protective function. In the event of

an accident, sharp braking or a sudden

change in direction, the child may not be held

securely. There is an increased risk of serious

or even fatal injuries.

Immediately replace child restraint systems

that have been damaged or subjected to a

load in an accident. Have the child restraint

securing systems checked in a qualified spe-

cialist workshop before fitting a child restraint

system again.

G

WARNING

If children are left unsupervised in the vehicle,

they could:

R

open the doors, thus endangering other

people or road users.

R

get out and disrupt traffic.

R

operate the vehicle's equipment.

Additionally, children could set the vehicle in

motion if, for example, they:

R

release the parking brake.

R

shift the automatic transmission out of

parking position P.

R

shift the manual transmission into neutral.

R

start the engine.

There is a risk of an accident and injury.

When leaving the vehicle, always take the key

with you and lock the vehicle. Never leave

children or animals unattended in the vehicle.

Always keep the key out of reach of children.
