Ski bag
*
The ski bag allows the safe and clean
transport of up to four pairs of standard
skis or up to two snowboards.
With the length of the ski bag and the
additional space in the cargo area, you
can store skis up to 6.8 ft/2.1 m length.
Because stowing skis of this maximum
length causes the ski bag to narrow, it
can only accommodate two pairs of
skis with a length of 6.8 ft/2.1 m.
Loading 1. Fold down the center armrest.
Loosen the trim from the upper
Velcro® fastener and place it onto the
armrest 530us077

the cover forward
3. Press button 2: the cover in the
cargo area is unlocked.
With pull-out cargo floor, refer to
page128: pull out floor, release
cover and push back floor again; the
floor then conceals the cover
4. Place ski bag between the front
seats and load. The zip fastener facil-
itates access to the stowed items.
Make sure that only clean skis are
loaded into the ski bag. Wrap sharp
edges so that no damage occurs.530de283
