Strength of the driver's and front-seat

passenger airbag

The explosive power that activates driver's/

front passenger's airbags very much depends

on the positions of the driver's/front passeng‐

er's seat.

With a respective message appearing on Con‐

trol Display calibrate the front seats to keep

the accuracy of this function over the long-

term.

Calibrating the front seats

A corresponding message appears on the

Control Display.

1.

Press the reel and move the respective

seat all the way forward.

2. Press the reel forward again. The seat still

moves forward slightly.

3. Readjust the seat to the desired position.

The calibration procedure is completed when

the message on the Control Display disap‐

pears.

If the message continues to be displayed, re‐

peat the calibration.

If the message does not disappear after a re‐

peat calibration, have the system checked as

soon as possible.

Unobstructed area of movement

Ensure that the area of movement of the

seats is unobstructed to avoid personal injury

or damage to objects.◀

Rollover protection system

The concept

The rollover protection system is automatically

activated in the event of a sufficiently serious

accident or if the longitudinal axis is tilted ex‐

cessively. The safety frames located behind

the rear headrests extend within fractions of a

second.

Supplementing the reinforced front windshield

frame, the rollover protection system further

increases passenger safety.

Hints

Keep the movement area unobstructed

Always keep the movement area of the

rollover protection system clear. Otherwise,

there may be damage or injuries when the roll‐

over protection system is triggered.◀

Do not place any objects on the covers of the

rollover protection system.

In the event of malfunctions, deactivation

or after deployment

Only have the airbags checked, repaired or dis‐

mantled and the system scrapped by your

service center. Non-professional attempts to

service the system could lead to failure in an

emergency or unintentional activation of the

airbag - both may lead to injury.◀

Triggered rollover protection system

After deployment or damage

After deployment of the rollover protec‐

tion system or in the event of damage, have

the system checked and replaced.

Have this work performed only by your service

center; otherwise, this safety feature might not

work properly.◀
