Diesel particle filter
3
The diesel particle filter system filters
harmful soot particles out of the exhaust
gases. The system includes a self-cleaning
function that run automatically during
driving. The filter is cleaned by burning off
the soot particles at high temperature. This
process takes place automatically under
set driving conditions and may take up to
25 minutes. Fuel consumption may be
higher during this period. The emission of
smells and smoke during this process is
normal.
Under certain driving conditions, e.g. short
distances, the system cannot clean itself
automatically.

If the filter requires cleaning and previous
driving conditions did not enable
automatic cleaning, control indicator

40 Seats, InteriorzSit with your shoulders as far back
against the backrest as possible. Set the
backrest rake so that you can easily
reach the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent. Maintain contact between
your shoulders and the backrest when
turning the steering wheel. Do not angle
the backrest too far back. We
recommend a maximum rake of
approx. 25.
zAdjust the steering wheel 36.
zSet seat height 3 high enough to have a
clear field of vision on all sides and of all
display instruments. There should be at
least six inches of clearance between
your head and the headlining. Your
thighs should rest lightly on the seat
without pressing into it.

Airbag system Front airbag
The front airbag system consists of one
airbag in the steering wheel and one in the
instrument panel. These can be identified
by the word AIRBAG.
The front airbag system comprises:
zan airbag with inflator in the steering
wheel and a second one in the
instrument panel 3,
zthe control electronics with impact
sensor,
zthe control indicator for airbag
systemsv in the instrument,
Picture no: 11734s.tif
The front airbag system will be triggered:
zdepending on the severity of the
accident,
zdepending on the type of impact,
zwithin the range shown in the illustration,
zindependently of the side airbag
system3.
The ignition must be switched on. Examples of events triggering the front
airbag system:
zImpact against a non-yielding obstacle:
the front airbags are triggered at low
vehicle speed.
zImpact against a yielding obstacle:
(such as another vehicle): the front
airbags are only triggered at a higher
vehicle speed.

60 Seats, InteriorImportant
zNo objects or accessories must be placed
in the area in which the airbags inflate,
as they could cause injury when the
components are deployed.
zDo not place any objects between the
airbag systems and the vehicle
occupants. Danger of injury. Do not
install a child restraint system 3 on the
front passenger seat. Danger to life.
zUse the hooks in the roof frame only to
hang up light articles of clothing or coat
hangers. Do not place any objects in the
pockets of the hanging items – risk of
injury.
zThe airbag systems and belt tensioner
control electronics can be found in the
centre console area. In order to avoid
malfunctions, do not store magnetic
objects in this area. zDo not stick anything on the steering
wheel, instrumnet panel or front seat
backrests in the vicinity of the airbags.
Do not cover any of these areas with
other materials.
zUse only a dry cloth or interior cleaner to
clean the steering wheel, instrument
panel and front seat backrests. Do not
use any aggressive cleaning agents.
zOnly protective covers which are
approved for your vehicle with side
airbag may be fitted on the front seats.
When fitting the protective covers, make
sure that the airbag units on the
outboard sides of the front seat
backrests are not covered.
zThe airbag systems are triggered
independently of one another
depending on the severity of the
accident and type of impact.
zEach airbag is only deployed once. Have
deployed airbags replaced by a
workshop immediately.
zThe speeds, directions of movement and
deformation properties of the vehicles,
and the properties of the obstacle
concerned, determine the severity of the
accident and triggering of the airbags.
The degree of damage to your vehicle
and the resulting repair costs alone are
not indicative that the criteria for
triggering of the airbags were met. zDo not perform any alterations on the
components of the airbag system, as this
would render the vehicle unroadworthy.
zWe recommend having the steering
wheel, the instrument panel, all panelling
parts, the door seals, the handles and
the seats removed by a workshop.
zThe applicable safety regulations must
be adhered to when the vehicle is
disposed of. The vehicle should therefore
be disposed of by a recycling company.
zAnyone weighing less than 35 kg should
seat in the rear seat.
9 Warning
As with any other object, child restaint
systems must not be carried on a
passenger’s lap. Danger to life.
9 Warning
If handled improperly the airbag
systems can be triggered in an explosive
manner – risk of injury!
