justing your seat, you will assume an incor-  
rect sitting position. Risk of fatal accidents.  
Adjust the driver or front passenger seat only  
when the vehicle is stationary.  
the following points should be observed: if,  
due to an external force (e.g. being knocked  
while manoeuvring), the adjustment of the  
mirror housing is altered, the mirror will have  
to be fully folded electrically. Do not readjust

the exterior mirrors to their original posi-  
front passenger in case of a sudden braking  
or an accident, never drive with the backrest  
tilted towards the rear. The maximum protec-  
tion of the seat belt can be achieved only  
when the backrests are in an upright position  
and the driver and front passenger have prop-  
erly adjusted their seat belts. The further the  
backrests are tilted to the rear, the greater  
the risk of injury due to improper positioning  
of the belt web!
