reposition them while the vehicle is in
motion so that you lose of control of
the vehicle as a result. Furthermore, an
incorrect sitting position is adopted
while adjusting the seat.

backwards only when there is no-one in
the adjustment range of the seats.

Improper use of seat covers or protective
c
overs may lead to the electrical seat
controls being operated accidentally and
the front seats moving unexpectedly
while the vehicle is moving. You could
lose control over the vehicle. This could
result in serious injury and accidents. Fur-
thermore, this may result in damage to
the electrical components in the front

the electric controls.

Do not fit seat covers or protective cov-
ers over the seats unless they have
been expressly approved for use in the
vehicle.

dama
ged 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.
