Safety information  
WARNING  
A missing protective effect due to re‐  
moved or not correctly adjusted head re‐  
straints can cause injuries in the head and  
neck area. There is a risk of injury.  
To ease accessibility to the safety belt buckle,  
an adjustable slider is available on the belt to  
help position the buckle when not in use.  
Before driving, install the removed head re‐  
straints on the occupied seats.  
When the safety belt is buckled, the belt strap  
is automatically tightened once after the vehi‐  
cle drove off.  
Adjust the head restraint so its center sup‐  
ports the back of the head at as close to  
eye level as possible.  
Adjust the distance so that the head re‐  
straint is as close as possible to the back of  
the head. If necessary, adjust the distance  
by adjusting the tilt of the backrest.◀
