Notes on loading the vehicle zHeavy objects in the luggage
compartment should be placed as far
forward as possible against the rear seat
backrests or, if the rear seat backrests
are folded down, against the front seat
backrests. If objects are to be stacked,
the heavier objects should be placed at
the bottom.
zSecure heavy objects with lashing
straps3 attached to lashing eyes 3
344.
zWhen transporting objects with the
backrests folded down, install the safety
net 3 345.
zClose the luggage compartment
cover3. zIf the seat backrests are not folded down
when transporting objects in the
luggage compartment, the backrests
must be fully upright and engaged in
position 342.
zDo not allow the load to protrude above
the upper edge of the backrests.
zThe warning triangle 3 and first-aid kit
(cushion) 3 must always be freely
accessible.
zDo not place any objects in front of the
rear window or on the instrument panel.
zNo objects must be placed in the area in
which the airbags inflate, as they could
cause injury when the systems are
deployed.
zThe load must not obstruct the operation
of the pedals, handbrake and gear
selector, or hinder the freedom of
movement of the driver. Do not place
any unsecured objects in the interior.
zDo not drive with luggage compartment
open when transporting bulky objects,
for example, since toxic exhaust fumes
could penetrate the interior.
zThe payload is the difference between
the permitted gross vehicle weight
(identification plate 3182) and the EC
kerb weight.
zTo calculate the EC kerb weight, enter
the data for your vehicle on page 189. zThe EC kerb weight includes allowances
for the driver (68 kg), luggage (7 kg) and
all fluids (tank 90 % full).
zOptional equipment and accessories
increase the kerb weight.
zWeights and payload 3189.
zDriving with a roof load increases the
sensitivity of the vehicle to cross-winds
and has a detrimental effect on vehicle
handling due to the vehicle’s higher
centre of gravity. Distribute the load
evenly and secure it properly with
retaining straps. Adjust the tyre pressure
to the load conditions. Do not drive
faster than 120 km/h. Check and
retighten the straps frequently. Observe
country-specific regulations.
zThe permissible roof load is 100 kg. The
roof load consists of the weight of the
roof rack plus the load carried.
zIf objects are transported in the load
compartment, the split load
compartment grille
3 must always be
locked in one of the retainers and the
lever must be engaged at its bottom
position 346.
zWhen stowing objects in the stowage
compartment above the front seats,
secure against falling out.

48 Seats, InteriorThree-stage safety system Comprising:
zthree-point seat belts,
zbelt tensioners at the front seats,
zairbag systems for driver and front
passenger3.
The three stages are activated in sequence
depending on the severity of the accident:
zThe automatic seat belt locking devices
prevent the belt strap from being pulled
out and thus ensure that the vehicle
occupants are retained in their seats.
zThe seat belts of the front seats are
pulled downwards at the belt buckles.
This tightens the seat belt, the occupants
are slowed down at an early stage of
vehicle deceleration and stress on the
body is reduced.
zThe airbag systems are also triggered in
the event of severe accidents and form a
safety cushion for the occupants. Carefully follow the instructions
accompanying the child restraint system.
Picture no: 18531s.tif
Three-point seat belts The seat belts have an automatic retractor,
so that the belt is spring tensioned and
always lies against the body.
Information on the correct seat position
339.
The belts are locked during heavy
acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle.
This prevents the seat belt from extending,
keeping the occupant in his or her seat.
9 Warning
The airbag systems serve to supplement
the three-point seat belts and belt
tensioners. The seat belts must therefore
always be worn. Disregard of these
instructions may lead to injuries or
endanger life. Vehicle passengers
should be informed accordingly.

Operation of the seat belts Fitting seat belts
The seat belt must not be twisted and must
lie snugly against the body. The backrest
must not be tilted back too far (maximum
approx. 25).
Adjust the height so that the belt lies across
the shoulder. It must not lie across the
throat or upper arm.
Pull the belt out of the reel, guide it across
the body (making certain it is not twisted)
and engage the latch plate in the buckle.
Tension the lap belt frequently whilst
driving by tugging the shoulder belt.
Picture no: 11596s.tif
Loose or bulky clothing prevents the seat
belt from fitting snugly. Do not place
objects such as handbags or mobile
phones between the belt and your body.
Picture no: 11597s.tif
Height adjustment
Adjusting the height of the upper
anchorage point of the front seat belts:
1. Pull out the seat belt somewhat.
2. Press belt guide or, in 5-door saloon,
push button down.
3. Set desired height.
4. Allow to lock audibly into position.
Do not adjust height while driving.
9 Warning
On pregnant women in particular, the
lap belt must be positioned as low as
possible across the pelvis so as not to
put too much pressure on the abdomen.
9 Warning
The seat belt must not rest against hard
or fragile objects in the pockets of your
clothing.
