Technical Data
When the ignition is switched on, the operation of the boot lid does not function using
the remote control key.
If the vehicle was locked from the outside, the operation of the boot lid does not func-
tion using the button on
the centre console page 45, fig. 33 .

Operation of the boot lid using the inner button
Operating the boot lid with the inner button is only possible when the boot lid is
opened page 45, fig. 32 . Audible signals
Audible signals are active during the electrical operation of the lid. They serve as a
safety function and provide information
about the success of a performed action.
Note
The expansion of the area page 46, fig. 34 changes proportionally, depending on
the setting of the top position of the lid page 47. When setting the top position of
the lid in the area , the area is not active, the expansion of the area changes
proportionally to the set top position of the lid.Setting the top position of the lidIf the space for opening the lid is restricted (e.g. height of garage) or for more conven-
ient operation (e.g. according to a person's height), it is possible to set the boot lid in
the top position.Setting the top position of the lid– Stop the lid in the desired posi tion (electrically or manually).

and the height which was originally set is deleted from the memory of the control
unit, while the basic position of the top lid position is again set.
Note
The lid always opens at the height which was last stored in the memory of the
control unit.
The top position which is reached when the lid opens automatically, is always
lower than the maximum top position which can be reached when the lid is opened
manually.
Operational malfunctionsIf the battery is disconnected and reconnected while the boot lid is open, it is neces-
sary to activate the system of the electric b oot lid. Activating means the initialisation of

Seats and StowageFront seatsBasic informationThe front seats have a wide range of differ ent settings and can thus be matched to the
physical characteristics of the driver and front passenger. Correct adjustment of the
seats is particularly important for:
safely and quickly reaching the controls,
a relaxed, fatigue-free body position,
achieving the maximum protection offered by the seat belts and the airbag
system.
WARNING
Never transport more occupants than the maximum seating in the vehicle.
Each occupant must correctly fasten the seat belt belonging to the seat.
Children must be fastened page 180, “Transporting children safely” with a
suitable restraint system.
The front seats and the head restraints must always be adjusted to match
the body size of the seat occupant as well as the seat belts must always be
correctly fastened in order to provide an optimal protection for you and your
occupants.
Always keep your feet in the footwell when the vehicle is being driven -
never place your feet on the instrument panel, out of the window or on the
surfaces of the seats. This is particular ly important for the front seat passenger.
You will be exposed to increased risk of injury if it becomes necessary to apply
the brake or in the event of an accident. If an airbag is deployed, you may suffer
fatal injuries when adopting an incorrect seated position!
It is important for the driver and front passenger to maintain a distance of at
least 25 cm from the steering wheel or dash panel. Not maintaining this
minimum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to properly
protect you - hazard! The front seats and the head restraints must always also
be correctly adjusted to match the body size of the occupant.
Ensure that there are no objects in the footwell as any objects may get
behind the pedals during a driving or braking manoeuvre. You would then no
longer be able to operate the clutch, to brake or accelerate.
Do not transport any objects on the front passenger seat except those
provided for this purpose (e.g. child safety seat) - risk of accident!
Adjusting the front seatsAdjusting a seat in a forward/back direction– Pull the lever fig. 68 up and push the seat into the desired position.
– Release the lever and push the seat further until the lock is heard to engage.Adjusting height of seat– Lift the seat if required by pu lling or pumping lever upwards.
– Lower the seat if required by pushing or pumping lever downwards.Adjust the angle of the seat backrest– Relieve any pressure on the seat backrest (do not lean on it) and turn the hand- wheel fig. 68 to adjust the desired angle of the backrest.

adjusted head restraints together with the seat belts offer effective protection for the
occupants page 162, “Correct seated position”.
WARNING
The head restraints must be correctly adjusted in order to offer effective
protection for the occupants in the event of an accident.
Do not drive under any circumstance with removed head restraints - risk of
injury.
If the rear seats are occupied, the rear head restraint must not be in the
lower position.
Middle rear head restraintIIn certain countries national legal provisions also require the equipment of the rear
seat with fixing eyes for child seat using the “Top Tether” system page 186,
“Attaching child seat using the “Top Tether” system”. For vehicles, which are equipped
with such fixing eyes, a de viating sequence for removing the middle head restraint
must be observed.Removing and installing the rear middle head restraint– Pull the head restraint out of the seat backrest as far as the stop.
