The centre armrest may limit the freedom of
movement of the driver's arm and cause a se-

●
Keep the centre armrest compartments
closed while the vehicle is in motion.
●
The centre armrest is not designed for chil-
dren to sit on! Sitting in this incorrect posi-
tion can cause severe injuries.
Transport and practical
equipment
Transporting objects
Introduction
Always transport heavy loads in the luggage
compartment and place the seat backs in a
vertical position. Always use the anchors pro-
vided with suitable rope to secure heavy ob-
jects. Never overload the vehicle. Both the
carrying capacity as well as the distribution
of the load in the vehicle affect driving be-
haviour and braking ability

.
WARNING
Unsecured or incorrectly secured objects can
cause serious injury in case of a sudden ma-
noeuvring or breaking or in case of an acci-
dent. This is especially true when objects are
struck by a detonating airbag and fired
through the vehicle interior. To reduce the
risks, please note the following:
●
Secure all objects in the vehicle. Always
keep equipment and heavy objects in the lug-
gage compartment.
●
Always secure objects with suitable rope or
slings so that they cannot enter the areas
around the front or side airbags in case of
sudden braking or an accident.
●
Always ensure that objects inside the vehi-
cle cannot move into the area of the airbags
while driving.
●
While driving, always keep object compart-
ments closed.
●
Remove all objects from the front passen-
ger seat when it is folded down. When the
seat backrest is folded down, it presses on
small and light objects and these are detec-
ted by the weight sensor on the seat; this
sends false information to the airbag control
unit.
●
While the seat backrest of the front passen-
ger seat is folded, the front airbag must re-
main disabled and the PASSENGER AIRBAG
OFF light on.
●
Objects secured in the vehicle should never
be placed in such a way as to make passen-
gers sit in an incorrect position.
●
If secured objects occupy a seat, this seat
should not be occupied or used by anyone.
WARNING
The driving behaviour and braking ability
change when transporting heavy and large
objects.
●
Adjust your speed and driving style to visi-
bility, road, traffic and weather conditions.
●
Accelerate gently and carefully.
●
Avoid sudden braking and manoeuvres.
●
Brake early.
