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 in
place, this will be shown on the multifunction
display on the instrument cluster (fold rear seat
back electrically) or the red lock verification indi‐
cator will be visible (fold rear seat back mechani‐
cally).
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 the child restraint system has been
removed, replace the head restraints imme‐
diately 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
on the maximum size setting, e.g. due to
possible contact with the roof.
O
The child restraint system must not be ten‐
sioned between the roof and the sitting sur‐
face 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.
O
Make sure that the child's feet do not touch
the front seat. If necessary, move the front
seat forward slightly.
The seat belts on the following seats are equip‐
ped with a special seatbelt retractor:
R
Front passenger seat
R
Rear seats
When enabled, the special seatbelt retractor
ensures that the seat belts of the front
passenger seat and rear seats do not slacken
once the child restraint system is secured
(/ page 57).
#
Install the child restraint system.
The entire base of the child restraint system
must always rest on the sitting surface of the
rear seat.
#
Always make sure that the shoulder belt
strap is correctly routed from the seat belt
outlet of the vehicle to the shoulder belt
guide on the child restraint system.
The shoulder belt strap must be routed for‐
wards and downwards from the seat belt out‐
let.
