Coupe: belt hand-over

The concept

The belt hand-over makes it easier for you to
fasten your safety belt. When you close the
door and switch on radio readiness or the igni-
tion, the belt hand-over extends automatically
and presents the in a position that is convenient
for fastening it around you. After you have fas-
tened your safety belt, the belt hand-over
retracts to its original position.

Even if you have not yet fastened your safety
belt, the belt hand-over will retract if you:

>

Wait for more than approx. one minute

>

Open the corresponding door

>

Start to drive.

Closing the respective door reactivates the belt
hand-over if the ignition or radio readiness is on.

Front passenger's seat

The belt hand-over will extend only if the seat is
occupied and after the front passenger's door is
closed.

Pinch protection system

If the belt hand-over encounters resistance on
moving in or out, it moves back slightly in the
opposite direction and stops in this position. To

reactivate the belt hand-over: open and close
the door or switch the ignition off and on.

Although there is a pinch protection sys-
tem, always check that the maneuvering

area of the belt hand-over is clear. Otherwise it
cannot be ensured that the system will stop
moving in certain extreme situations.

Mirrors

Exterior mirrors

The front passenger's mirror is more con-
vex than the driver's mirror. The objects

seen in the mirror are closer than they appear.
Do not gauge your distance from traffic behind
you on the basis of what you see in the mirror;
otherwise there is an increased risk of an acci-
dent.
