only an aid and is not a substitute for your atten-
tion when closing the roller sunblinds.

ticular to soft, light and thin objects, e.g. small
fingers. This means that the reversing feature
cannot prevent someone being trapped in
these situations. There is a risk of injury.

Problems with the seat heating
ProblemPossible causes/consequences andMSolutions
The seat heating has
switched off prematurely
or cannot be switched
on.The on-board voltage is too low because too many electrical consum-
ers are switched on.

rear window defroster or interior lighting.
Once the battery is sufficiently charged, the seat heating can be
switched back on manually.

Care
General notes
HEnvironmental note
Dispose of empty packaging and cleaning
cloths in an environmentally responsible man- ner.

the following:
Rdry, rough or hard cloths
Rabrasive cleaning agents

should drive for a few minutes after cleaning.
Braking heats the brake discs and the brake
pads/linings, thus drying them. The vehicle
can then be parked.
