Seat belts
112•
No two persons (also not children) should ever use a single seat belt
together.
•
The maximum protection which seat belts can offer is only achieved if
you are correctly seated ⇒page 106, “Correct seated position”.
•
The belt webbing must no t run across solid or fragile objects (e.g. spec-
tacles, ball-point pens, keys etc.) as this may be a cause of injuries.
•
Bulky, loose clothing (e.g. a winter coat over a jacket) does not allow you
to be correctly seated and impairs proper operation of the seat belts.
•
It is prohibited to use clamps or other objects to adjust seat belts (e.g. for
shortening the belts for smaller persons).
•
The lock tongue should only be insert ed into the lock which is the correct
one for your seat. Wrong use of the safety belt will reduce its capacity to
protect and the risk of injury increases.
•
The backrests of the front seats must not be tilted too far to the rear
otherwise the seatbelts can lose their effectiveness.
•
The belt webbing must always be ke pt clean. Soiled belt webbing may
impair proper operation of the inertia reel ⇒page 155, “Seat belts”.
•
The slot of the belt tongue must not be blocked by paper or similar
objects otherwise the belt tongue will not lock in place properly.
•
Inspect the seat belts regularly to ensure they are in good condition. If
you find seat belts which have damage to the seat belt webbing, seat belt
connections, to the inertia reels or to the lock, the relevant safety belt must
be replaced by a specialist garage.
•
The seat belts must not be removed or changed in any way. Do not make
an attempt to repair the seat belts yourself.
•
Damaged seat belts which have been subjected to stress in an accident
and were therefore stretched, must be replaced - this is best done by a
specialist garage. The anchorage points of the belts must also be inspected.
The anchorage points for the be lts should also be checked.
•
In certain countries it is possible to use seat belts which differ in terms of
their operation from the seat belts which are described on the pages which
follow.

Technical Data
Raise vehicle
You have to raise the vehicle with a lifting jack in order to be able to
take off the wheel.Place the jack under the vehicle. Re cesses are located at the lower sill
(front and rear) ⇒fig. 172 . There is a point under the recess where the
lifting jack can be positioned, see arrows ⇒fig. 172 .
– Position the lifting jack below the jacking point and move it up until its claw is positioned directly below the vertical web of the lower sill.
– Position the lifting jack so that the claw grasps the web of the lower sill and the moving base plate of the lifting jack is resting flat
against the floor.
– Turn the lifting jack up further until the wheel is just clear of the ground.Ground below the lifting jack which is soft and slippery can cause the vehicle to
slip off the jack. It is therefore always ne cessary to place the lifting jack on a solid
surface or use a wide and stable base. Use a non-slip base (e.g. a rubber foot mat)
if the surface is smooth, such as cobbled stones, a tiled floor, etc.
WARNING
•
Always raise the vehicle with the doors closed - risk of injury!
•
Take suitable measures to prevent the base of the lifting jack from slip-
ping off - risk of injury!
•
Not positioning the lifting jack at the specified points can result in
damage to the vehicle. The jack can also sl ip off if it does not have sufficient
grip - risk of injury!
•
It is important to support the vehicle with suitable supporting blocks if
you wish to work under the lifted vehicle - risk of injury!
Securing wheels against being stolen*
You need a special adapter for slackening the safety wheel bolts.– Pull off the full wheel trim/cap from the wheel hub or cap from the safety wheel bolt.
– Insert the adapter with its toothed side fully into the inner toothing of the safety wheel bolt right down in such a way that only the
outer hexagon is jutting out ⇒fig. 173 .
– Insert the wheel wrench fully onto the adapter .
– Slacken the wheel bolt, or tighten it firmly ⇒page 188.
