9 Seat belts
Safety FirstControls and equipment Tips and Maintenance Technical Data
The physical principle of a frontal crash is easy to explain.
As soon as the vehicle is moving, so-called “kinetic energy” is
created by the movement of the vehicle, in the vehicle itself as well
as in the vehicle occupants.
The extent of the “kinetic energy” effect depends largely on the
speed of the vehicle and on the weight of the vehicle and the
vehicle occupants.
The higher the speed and the greater the weight of the vehicle, the
more energy must be dispersed should an accident occur.
The speed of the vehicle is, however, the more important factor. If,
for example, the speed increases from 25 km/h to 50 km/h, the
kinetic energy increases fourfold!
As the vehicle occupants in our example are wearing no seat belts,
their entire kinetic energy can only be dispersed through the crash
into the wall, should a crash occur. The consequences would be
severe or possibly even fatal injuries.
If you are driving at a speed of only 30 km/h to 50 km/h, forces
which can easily exceed 1000 kg are exerted on the body should
an accident occur.
The forces exerted on the body will increase further at higher
speeds, e.g. At twice the speed the forces increase fourfold!
Vehicle occupants not wearing their seat belts are thus not
“linked” to their vehicle.
In a frontal crash, these people will continue to move forward at
the same speed as the vehicle was travelling before the vehicle
crashed!

By turning the hand-wheel the seatpadding in the lumbar area of
the spine can be made to arch forward slightly. This gives effective
support to the natural curvature of the spine so that the sitting
position is less fatiguing, particularly on long trips.

Pull lever up and turn seat towards the door.
Before turning you must first lower the seat to the lowest position
and push the seat right back.
On the driver’s seat the backrest must also be folded forward, so
that it does not hit the steering wheel whilst the seat is being
turned.

Take weight off seat cushion and pull up lever. The whole seat
cushion moves upwards. To adjust the seat cushion downwards,
push seat downwards with body weight
⇒ fig. 89.
Coat hanger
You can remove the clothes hook fitted to the head restraint. To do
this you must first remove the head restraint
⇒"Headrestraints"chapter. You can then simply pull the hook off the rods of the head
restraint.
Toy bag
The toy bag, which is in the form of a rucksack, can be hung from
the head restraint of a seat. In this way, your child can always see
and reach his/her toys during the journey. It is thus also possible
to prevent the bag from being flung forwards if you have to brake
suddenly or are involved in an accident.

9 Nm is achieved, as shown on the key.
• Distribute the load evenly. Each cross bar may carry 50 kg if
loaded uniformly over the full length. The permissible roof load
(including the carrier system) of 75 kg and the permissible gross
vehicle weight must not be exceeded
⇒"Technical Data" chapter.
• When carrying heavy or large objects on the roof, bear in mind
that the vehicle handling changes due to the displacement of the
centre of gravity and the increased area exposed to the wind.
Driving style and speed must be adapted to allow for this.

Safety FirstControls and equipment Tips and Maintenance Technical Data
Suggestion 6. Avoid short drives
The engine and the catalytic converter must
reach its optimum functioning temperature in order to effectively
reduce consumption and toxic gas emissions.
The fuel consumption of a cold engine of a normal vehicle right
after the start is about 30-40 liters per 100 km. After about one
kilometer the consumption decreases to 20 liters. After about
f fo
ou
ur
r
kilometers the engine has warmed up and the consumption is
normal. For this reason, it is important to avoid short drives and
heating the vehicle’s engine when the vehicle is not moving. Drive
on quickly!
The ambient temperature also counts. The illustration shows the
difference in consumption (l/100km) for the same distance (km) at
+20°C and –10°C. Your vehicle’s consumption is higher in the
summer than in the winter
⇒fig. 153.K
Suggestion 7. Check the tyre pressure
Make sure that the tyres have always adequate pressure. Even half
a bar less increases the level of fuel consumption by 5 percent. If
the pressure is not correct, the tyres wear out faster due to an
excessive deformation and overheating which, in turn, will
decrease the driving performance.
Always check the tyre pressure when the tyre is cold.
In addition, do not drive year round with winter tyres. They make
more noise and increase fuel consumption by 10 percent. Change
to summer tyres on time.
K
Suggestion 8. Avoid unnecessary weight
Apart from driving habits and periodic revisions of your vehicle,
there are other ways to reduce fuel consumption:

Every kilogram increases fuel consumption. For this reason, it is
worth checking your boot to avoid unnecessary weight.
Frequently, the roof rack will stay on the roof even though it is no
longer needed. Due to greater air resistance, an unloaded roof
rack at a speed of 100-120 km/h increases the consumption by
approx. 12%.

information and expertise for the retrofitting of towing devicesand
the concurrent requirements for reinforcing the cooling system. For
these reasons, it is best to have the fitting done by a Technical
Service Centre.

• The removable ball coupling of the towing bracket* may be
stored in the right-hand rear of the boot.
•Additional mirrors are required if the traffic behind the trailer is
not visible with the exterior mirrors fitted as standard. Both exterior
mirrors must be attached to brackets in such a way that a sufficient
field of vision to the rear is guaranteed at all times.
•The permitted trailer weight must not be exceeded under any
circumstances
⇒chapter “Technical Data”.
•When using a trailer on mountain routes you must bear in mind
that the tow loads given in the “Technical data” chapter are onlyapplicable for slopes of 10% to 12%. If you do not use the full tow
load you may drive up steeper slopes.
•The given trailer weights are only applicable for altitudes up
to 1000 m above sea level. As the engine output drops due to
the decreasing air density, the climbing ability must also be
reduced by 10% for each further 1000 m.
•Where possible make full use of the maximum permissible
drawbar weight on the ball of the towing bracket but do not exceed
it
⇒chapter “Technical Data”.
•While observing the permissible trailer and drawbar weight,
distribute the load in the trailer so that heavyobjects are as near
as possible to the axle. The objects must also be secured so that
they cannot slip about.
•The tyre pressures on the towing vehicle must be adjusted for full
load conditions, and also check the pressures on the trailer.
•Headlight settings should be checked, with the trailer attached,
before beginning the journey and adjusted as necessary.
On vehicles with headlight beam control it is only necessary to turn
the knurled disc on the dash board in the appropriate direction.

To obtain the best possible handling of vehicle and trailer, the
following should be noted:
• Try to avoid driving with an unladen vehicle and a loaded trailer.
If this cannot be avoided, only drive slowly to allow for the
unfavourable weight distribution.

• As driving stability of vehicle and trailer decreaseswhen the
speed increases do not drive at the maximum permissible top
speed in unfavourable road, weather or wind conditions –
particularly when going downhill.
In any case the speed must be reduced as soon as the trailer
shows the slightest sign of snaking. On no account try to stop the
snaking by accelerating.

• Always brake in good time. If the trailer has an overrun brake,
apply the brakes gently at first then firmly. This will avoid the
jerking caused by the trailer wheels locking.
Change down before going down a steep hill so thatthe engine
can act as a brake.
• When a long climb in a low gear with extremely high engine revs
must be negotiated at exceptionally high ambient temperatures
the coolant temperature gauge must be observed. When the gauge
needle moves to the right end of the scale, the road speed must be
reduced immediately.
• The cooling effect of the radiator fan cannot be increased by
changing down, because the speed of the fan is not dependent on
the engine speed. One should therefore not change down even
when towing a trailer as long as the engine can cope without the
vehicle speed dropping too much.

• The trailer and drawbar load figures on the data plate of the
towing bracket are for test certification only. The correct figuresfor
the vehicle, which may be lower than the above figures, are given
in the vehicle documents and in this manual.
• When using the towing device the car’s empty weight is reduced,
and as a result its effective load is decreased.
• Observe all statutory requirements regarding the use of a
trailer.

These values were calculated without extra equipment reducing
performance, such as air conditioning, mud flaps, extra wide tyres,
etc.
K
Fuel Consumption
The consumption and emission levels were calculated using the
93/116/CE measuring standards and take into account the true
free-standing weight of the vehicle (weight category). To measure
the fuel consumption the vehicle is tested in two different cycles
on a rolling bench under the following conditions:

• The consumption and emission levels given in the following tables are
correct for unloaded vehicles with basic fittings. If there are extra
fittings, the empty weight will increase and, as a result, the weight
category, which may slightly increase the consumption and CO
2levels.
Consult a Technical Service Centre to find out the exact specifications of
your vehicle.
• Driving style, road and traffic conditions, weather conditionsand the
condition of the vehicle will, in practice, produce consumption levels
different to those indicated.

countries may have other weights. At all times it should be taken into
account that the data given with the official vehicle document prevails.
Tyre pressure
The pressure values given here are for cold tyres – do not reduce
the high pressure of warm tyres.

•Due to special versions of certain models and optional extras such asair
conditioning, sliding/tilting roof, tow bar and other added features, the free
standing weight increases, meaning that the load size is correspondingly re-
duced.
