Safety information
Warning
Seat setting while driving can lead to un-
expected movements of the seat. Vehicle
control could be lost. There is a risk of ac-
cident. Only adjust the seat on the driver's
side when the vehicle is stationary.

rear, the protective effect of the seat belt
can no longer be ensured. There is a risk
of sliding under the seat belt in an acci-
dent. There is a risk of injury or danger to

trip. Adjust the backrest so that it is in the
most upright position as possible and do
not adjust again while driving.

ing the seats. There is a risk of injury or
risk of damage to property. Make sure that
