Through-loading system
*
Pull the corresponding lever to release
(arrow).
The backrest moves forward slightly
when released. Reach into the gap and
fold it down.
When folding the backrest back
into its original position always
ensure that the detent engages
securely. A loose backrest might fail to
prevent cargo from entering the
passenger compartment during sudden
braking or evasive maneuvers, posing a
potential hazard to occupants.<
To secure your luggage, use the
luggage nets
* or flexible straps that you
can attach to the fittings at the inner
corners of the luggage compartment.
Refer also to Cargo loading on page 99.
Rear center 3-point belt
*
You can roll up the rear 3-point belt
before folding back the through-loading
system:
>Release the belt and insert its latch in
the recess provided for this purpose
in the rear tray (arrow).
Always use the outer safety belts
to install child-restraint systems.
The center seat belt should only be
used when it is necessary to secure
three child-restraint systems.
Do not attempt to modify child-restraint
systems. If you do this, the protection
provided by these systems could be
impaired.<
