In the luggage compartment: opening and closing side nets.  
Opening a side net:  
1. Pull the clasp inwards until it is almost fully open → Fig. 2 (arrow A ).  
2. Press the clasp in the middle in the direction of the arrow until it locks → Fig. 2 (arrow B ).

1. Press the clasp in the middle in the opposite direction to the arrow → Fig. 2 (arrow B ) until it unlocks.  
2. Press the clasp together.  
WARNING  
An elastic side net must be stretched in order to secure it, which means that it is under tension. If an elastic side net slips off and  
“snaps” towards the body, the hooks attached to the net can cause serious injuries.  
Protect your eyes and face when installing and removing the luggage net.  
Always hold the luggage net hooks tightly to prevent them from jumping out of the fastening ring during installation or removal.  
Always attach the luggage net hooks in the described order so that the luggage net “snaps” away from the body if it slips.  
WARNING  
If they are not used correctly, the luggage net hooks can tear off in the event of a braking manoeuvre or accident. This could cause  
objects to be flung through the vehicle interior and lead to severe or fatal injuries.  
Use the rear side net hooks only for securing a side net.  
Never secure a child seat using the side net hooks.  
The fixing set can be used to secure loose items in the luggage compartment. The fixing elements are suitable for securing objects up  
to a maximum weight of 10 kg (around 22 lbs) and are located in the side trim on the right side between the upper and lower luggage  
compartment floor positions. The fixing set can be mounted at three positions on the luggage compartment floor → Fig. 1 (thin  
arrows).
