If this is the case, the vehicle occupant
would be forced into the seat belt by the
rear bench seat/rear seat or by the seat
backrest. The seat belt cannot protect as
intended and could result in additional
injury.
R
Objects or loads in the trunk/cargo com‐
partment cannot be restrained by the
seat backrest.
#
Make sure that the seat backrest and
the rear bench seat/rear seat are
engaged before every trip.
If the seat backrest is not engaged and locked,
this will be shown on the multifunction display
on the instrument cluster.
When installing a belt-secured child restraint
system, observe the following:
O
Always comply with the manufacturer's
installation and operating instructions for
the child restraint system used.
O
When using a category 0/0+ baby car
seat and a category I rearward-facing
child restraint system on a rear seat:
adjust the front seat so that the seat does
not touch the child restraint system.
O
When using a category I forward-facing
child restraint system: remove the head
restraint from the respective seat, if possi‐
ble.
After removing the child restraint system,
replace the head restraints again immedi‐
ately and adjust them correctly.
O
The backrest of the forward-facing child
restraint system must, as far as possible, be
resting on the seat backrest of the rear
seat.
O
For certain child restraint systems in weight
category II or III, there may be restrictions in
the maximum size setting, e.g. due to possi‐
ble contact with the roof.
O
The child restraint system must not be put
under strain between the roof and the seat
cushion and/or be installed facing the
wrong direction. Where possible, adjust the
seat cushion inclination accordingly.
O
The child restraint system must not be put
under strain by the head restraints. Adjust
the head restraints accordingly.

Make sure that the child's feet do not touch
the front seat. If necessary, move the front
seat forward slightly.

restraint systems in weight categories II or III
must be removed or the head restraints of

to the lowest position. In this case, let the
child get out before opening or closing the
soft top.

ped with a special seat belt retractor:
