be injured by objects being thrown

around in the event of hard

braking, a sudden change in

direction or an accident.

Additional cupholders are located in

the rear armrest. Fold down armrest.

Centre console storage

The storage container can be used to

store small items.
Depending on the version, the

storage compartment is located

under a cover.

Load compartment

The rear seat backrest is divided into

2/3 to 1/3 parts. Both parts can be

folded down individually to increase

the size of the load compartment.
Before folding rear seat backrests,

from the load compartment: pull

switch on left or right sidewall of

the load compartment to fold the

corresponding part of the rear

seat backrest.

9 Warning

Take care when operating the rear

backrests from the load

compartment. The backrest is

folded with considerable power.

Risk of injury, particularly to

children.
Ensure that nothing is attached to

the rear seats or located on the

seat cushion.

● To fold up, raise the backrests

and guide them into an upright

position until they engage

audibly.

Loading information

● Heavy objects in the load

compartment should be placed

against the seat backrests. Make

sure that the backrests are

securely engaged, i.e. no longer

showing the red markings on the

side near the release lever. If

objects can be stacked, heavier

objects should be placed at the

bottom.

● Secure objects with lashing

straps attached to lashing eyes

compartment to prevent from

sliding.

● When transporting objects in the

load compartment, the backrests

of the rear seats must not be

angled forward.

above the upper edge of the

backrests.

● Do not place any objects on the

load compartment cover or the

instrument panel, and do not

cover the sensor on top of the

instrument panel.

compartment.

Storage

79

9 Warning

Always make sure that the load in

the vehicle is securely stowed.

Otherwise objects can be thrown

around inside the vehicle and

cause personal injury or damage

to the load or car.

● The payload is the difference

between the permitted gross

vehicle weight (see identification

plate 3 240) and the EC kerb

weight.
To calculate the payload, enter

the data for your vehicle in the

weights table at the front of this

instruction.
The EC kerb weight includes

weights for the driver (68 kg),

luggage (7 kg) and all fluids (fuel

tank 90% full).
Optional equipment and

accessories increase the kerb

weight.

● Driving with a roof load increases

the sensitivity of the vehicle to

cross-winds and has a

detrimental effect on vehicle

handling due to the vehicle's

higher centre of gravity.

Distribute the load evenly and

secure it properly with retaining

straps. Adjust the tyre pressure

and vehicle speed according to

the load conditions. Check and

retighten the straps frequently.
Do not drive faster than 120 km/

h.
The permissible roof load is

80 kg. The roof load is the

combined weight of the roof rack

and the load.
