Adjusting the vertical position of the head restraint.

The centre seat head restraint can be adjusted vertically to suit the height of the passenger. Raise the head restraint as needed. The release button on one of the supports must be pressed to push the head restraint down. See the illustration!

Both rear seat backrests can be tipped forward, together or individually. This makes it easier to transport long objects.

Fold the rear seat backrests as follows:

– First check that the head restraints have not been lowered.

– Pull the handle in the cargo area as shown in the illustration.

– Fold the backrest forward.

A hatch in the right-hand rear backrest allows you to transport long objects such as skis and planks. Open the hatch as follows:

– Fold the left-hand backrest and centre armrest forwards.

– Release the hatch by pushing the catch upward while folding the hatch forward.

– Tip the backrest back into position with the hatch open.

WARNING

Always secure the load. During heavy braking the load may otherwise shift, causing personal injury.

Cover sharp edges with something soft.

Turn off the engine and apply the parking brake when loading or unloading long objects! Otherwise you may accidentally knock the gear lever or gear selector with the load and cause a gear to engage and the car to move off.

Carrier bag holder (option)

Open the hatch in the cargo area. Hang or secure your grocery bags using the tensioning strap.

General

Payload depends on the car’s total kerb weight, including any accessories that are mounted.

Kerb weight includes the driver, the weight of the fuel tank when filled to 90 % and various fluids, such as washer fluid and coolant.

Mounted accessories, i.e. towbar, load carriers, space box, etc., are included in the kerb weight.

92

The load capacity of the car is reduced by the number of passengers and their weight.

WARNING

The driving characteristics of the car change based on its kerb weight and how heavily it is loaded.
