If you assign the radio remote control to a memory button which has already been
assigned to a radio remote control, the ol d assignment is also replaced by a new
assignment in this case.

The assignment of the radio remote co ntrol to a memory button is retained,
however, after reassigning the seats and exterior mirrors.
Retrieving seat and exterior mirror settings for driving forward
You can retrieve the stored settings either with the memory button
or also with the radio remote control*.Retrieving the settings of the seat and mirrors can only be carried out when the igni-
tion is switched off for safety reasons. Retrieving the settings can be carried out in two
different ways:Retrieving settings with memory buttons– By pressing briefly: with the door open, operate the desired memory button
 page 58, fig. 56 with one-touch. The seat and the exterior mirrors now move
automatically into the stored position.
– By pressing for a long period of time: with the driver door open or closed, press
and hold the desired memory button until the seat and the exterior mirrors
have moved into the stored position.Retrieving settings with remote control*– If the driver door is closed and the ignition is switched off, briefly press the unlock button of the radio remote control page 39 and then open the driver door.
– The seat and exterior mirrors now move automatically into the stored positions.Retrieving setting of exterior mirror for reversing*– Turn the rotary knob for the exterior mirror setting into the position
  page 54
before engaging the reverse gear.
Emergency Off– Press any button on the driver seat.
Note
If the memory button is pressed once agai n during the automatic setting of the seat
and the exterior mirrors, the setting operation is interrupted. After repeated pressing
of the same button, the setting operation is continued to the end. If one of the two
remaining memory buttons is pressed, the stored setting of this button is retrieved.Information concerning the off switch of the memory systemAfter pressing the off switch page 58, fig. 56 of the memory system, the memory
system is deactivated. You can only adjust the seat and the exterior mirrors manually.
You can switch on the memory system again by once again pressing the off switch
of the memory system. The setting is not ca rried out to the end if a retrieved setting
operation is interrupted.
We recommend that you switch off the memo ry system with the off switch if the
vehicle is used for a short period by a driver and you do not wish to store any particular
settings of the seat and mirrors in this case.Head restraints

seats and the armrest in such a way that no mutual deformation or damage can occur
to the seats.
Folding seats forwards– Before folding the rear seats forwards, yo
u must adapt the position of the front
seats in such a way that they are not damaged when the rear seats are folded
forwards.
– Pull up the seat cushion in direction of arrow and fold forwards in direction of arrow page 60, fig. 59 .
– Unlock the seat backrests by pulling the securing knob page 60, fig. 60 and fold
them forwards.
– Remove the head restraints from the seat backrests and fold the backrests
completely forwards.
– The head restraints can be inserted into the relevant holes of the folded forward
seat cushions.
If the front seats are too far back, we recomm end that you have the rear head restraints
removed before the seat backrests are folded forward. Store the removed head
restraints in such a way that they cannot be damaged or soiled. Please refer to the
guidelines page 63, “luggage compartment”.Move seats into the initial position
Move seats into the initial position– Install the head restraints in the slightly lifted seat backrest.
– Place the rear lateral seat belt fig. 61 behind the edge of the side trim panel.
– Then push the seat backrest back into th e upright position until the securing knob
clicks into place - check by pulling on the seat backrest.
– Move the seat cushion into its original position.
WARNING

The belts and the belt locks must be in their original position after folding
back the seat cushions and the seat backrests - they must be ready to use.

The seat backrests must be securely interlocked in position so that no
objects in the luggage compartment can slide into the passenger compartment
if there is sudden braking - risk of injury!

Pay attention that the seat backrests are correctly interlocked. It is only then
that the three-point seat belt for the middle seat can reliably fulfil its function.

Before folding the seat backrest back into the secure position, place the rear
lateral seat belt behind the edge of the si de trim panel. Take suitable measures
to prevent that the seat belt is jammed between the seat backrest and the side
trim panel and is thus damaged.

There must be no objects on the floor which could roll under the pedals. You
would then no longer be able to apply the brakes, operate the clutch or accel-
erator - risk of accident!
luggage compartmentLoading the luggage compartmentPlease observe the following in the interest of having good handling characteristics of
your vehicle:
– Distribute the items of luggage as evenly as possible.
– Place heavy objects as far forward as possible.
– Attach the items of luggage to the lashing eyes or the fixing net* page 64.
In the event of an accident, there is such a high kinetic energy which is produced by
small and light objects that th ey can cause severe injuries. The magnitude of the kinetic
energy depends on the speed at which the vehi cle is travelling and on the weight of the
object. The speed at which the vehicle is travelling is in this case the more significant
factor.
Example: In the event of a frontal collision at a speed of 50 km/h, an unsecured object
with a weight of 4.5 kg produces an ener gy, which corresponds to 20 times its own
weight. This means that it results in a weight of approx. 90 kg. You can imagine the inju-
ries that can occur, if this “bullet” is fl ying through the interior compartment and hits
an occupant.
WARNING

Stow the objects in the luggage compartm ent and attach them to the lashing
eyes.

Loose objects in the passenger compartment can be thrown forward during
a sudden manoeuvre or in case of an accident and can injure the occupants or
other oncoming traffic. This risk is still increased, if the objects which are flying around are hit by a deployed airbag. In this case, the objects which are thrown
back can injure the occupants - hazard.

Please note that the handling properties of your vehicle may be affected
when transporting heavy objects as a result of the displacement of the centre of
gravity. The speed and style of driv ing must be adjusted accordingly.

The items carried in the luggage compartment should be stowed in such a
way that no objects are able to slip fo rward if there are any sudden driving or
braking manoeuvres underta ken - risk of injury!

Never drive with the boot lid fully open ed or slightly ajar otherwise exhaust
gases may get into the interior of the vehicle - risk of poisoning!

On no account exceed the permissible axle loads and the permissible gross
weight of the vehicle - risk of accident!

Never transport occupants in the luggage compartment!Caution
Please ensure that the heating elements of the rear window heater are not damaged
as a result of objects sliding in this area.
Note
Tyre pressure must be adjusted to the load page 160, fig. 153 .
