Introduction  
Only use stowage compartments to stow light or smaller objects.  
WARNING  
Loose objects may be flung through the vehicle interior in the event of a sudden driving or braking manoeuvre. This  
can cause serious injury and can also lead to loss of control of the vehicle.  
Stow objects only in closed stowage compartments.  
Always keep stowage compartments closed while the vehicle is in motion.  
WARNING  
An open glove box can increase the risk of serious injury in the event of an accident or sudden braking or driving  
manoeuvres.  
Always keep the glove box closed while the vehicle is in motion.  
WARNING  
Cigarette lighters in the vehicle could be damaged or accidentally lit. This could lead to serious burns and other  
injuries.  
Before adjusting the seats, always make sure that there is no cigarette lighter on or near the movable parts of the  
seat.  
Before closing stowage areas or compartments always make sure that there is no lighter in the way.  
Never stow lighters in stowage areas or compartments or on other surfaces in the vehicle. High surface  
temperatures, especially in summer, may cause cigarette lighters to self-ignite.  
WARNING  
Objects in the driver footwell can hinder pedal operation. This can lead to loss of control of the vehicle and increase  
292  
the risk of serious injury.  
Make sure that all pedals can always be operated without any hindrance.  
The floor mats must always be properly secured in the footwell.  
No additional floor mats or other floor coverings should be placed over the fitted floor mat.  
Make sure that no objects can enter the driver footwell while the vehicle is in motion.  
If there are any objects in the footwell, remove them when the vehicle is parked.  
WARNING  
Incorrect use of the drink holders can cause injury.  
Never place hot drinks in a drink holder. Hot drinks in a drink holder could be spilled and cause scalding in any  
sudden braking manoeuvre or accident.  
WARNING  
Closed drink bottles can explode in the vehicle in extreme heat or crack in extremely cold temperatures.  
Never leave closed drink bottles in an extremely hot or extremely cold vehicle for extended periods.  
NOTICE  
Do not stow any temperature-sensitive objects, food or medicines inside the vehicle. Hot and cold temperatures  
could damage them or render them unusable.  
Objects stored in the vehicle that are made from transparent materials, such as transparent suction cups on the  
windows, can concentrate the sun’s rays and thus cause damage to the vehicle.

Fig. 1 Under the 3-seat bench: drawers.
