Adjustments
Sitting safely The ideal sitting position can make a vital con- tribution to relaxed, fatigue-free driving. In con- junction with the safety belts, the head restraints and the airbags, the seated position has a major influence on your safety in the event of an accident. To ensure that the safety sys- tems operate with optimal efficiency, we strongly urge you to observe the instructions contained in the following section. For additional information on transporting chil- dren safely, refer to page 53.
Airbags
Always maintain an adequate distance between yourself and the airbags. Always
grip the steering wheel on the rim, with your hands in the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions, to minimize the risk of injury to the hands or arms in the event of the airbag being triggered off. No one and nothing is to come between the air- bags and the seat occupant. Do not use the cover of the front airbag on the front passenger side as a storage area. Make sure that the front passenger is sitting correctly, e.g. not resting feet or legs on the dashboard, otherwise leg injuries can occur if the front air- bag is triggered. Make sure that passengers do not lean their heads against the side or head airbags, other- wise serious injuries could result if the airbags suddenly deployed.< Even if you follow all the instructions, injuries resulting from contact with airbags cannot be fully excluded, depending on the circum- stances. The ignition and inflation noise may provoke a mild hearing loss in extremely sensi- tive individuals. This effect is usually only tem- porary. For airbag locations and additional information on airbags, refer to page 95.
44
Head restraint A correctly adjusted head restraint reduces the risk of neck injury in the event of an accident. Adjust the head restraint in such a way that its center is at approx. ear level. Oth- erwise, there is an increased risk of injury in the event of an accident.< Head restraints, refer to page 46.
Safety belt Before every drive, make sure that all occupants wear their safety belts. Airbags complement the safety belt as an additional safety device, but they do not represent a substitute. Your vehicle has five seats, each of which is equipped with a safety belt.
Never allow more than one person to wear a single safety belt. Never allow
infants or small children to ride in a passenger's lap. Make sure that the belt in the lap area sits low across the hips and does not press against the abdomen. The safety belt must not rest against the throat, run across sharp edges, pass over hard or frag- ile objects or be pinched. Fasten the safety belt so that it sits as snugly as possible against the lap and shoulder without being twisted. Other- wise the belt could slide over your hips and injure your abdomen in the event of a frontal collision. Avoid wearing bulky clothing and regularly pull the belt in the upper-body area taut, otherwise its restraining effect could be impaired. Sports Wagon: if the rear center safety belt is used, the wider backrest must be locked in place, refer to page 115. Otherwise the safety belt will have no restraining effect.< Safety belts, refer to page 49.
Seats
Backrest
Note before adjusting
Never attempt to adjust your seat while the vehicle is moving. The seat could
respond with unexpected movement, and the ensuing loss of vehicle control could lead to an accident. On the front passenger seat as well, do not incline the backrest too far to the rear while the vehicle is being driven, otherwise there is a dan- ger in the event of an accident of sliding under the safety belt, eliminating the protection nor- mally provided by the belt.< Comply with the instructions on head restraint height on page 46, and on damaged safety belts on page 50.
Manual adjustment
Observe the adjustment instructions on page 45 to ensure the best possible per-
sonal protection.<

Backrest width*
You can change the width of the backrest to suit your individual preferences by adjusting the lat- eral-support pads. Press the front or rear end of the switch. Backrest width decreases or increases accord- ingly.
Head restraints A correctly adjusted head restraint reduces the risk of neck injury in the event of an accident. Adjust the head restraint in such a way that its center is at approx. ear level. Oth- erwise, there is an increased risk of injury in the event of an accident. Only remove a head restraint if no one will be sitting on the seat in question. Reinstall the head restraint before transporting anyone on that seat. Otherwise, the passenger will be without protection from the head restraint.<
