Reach into the opening and pull forward, refer
to arrow.
Before folding down the rear backrests,
remove the cover caps for the LATCH
child restraint fixing system. Otherwise, impres-
sions can be left in the seat cushion.
<
When you fold the backrest upright again,
be sure that the catch engages securely.
This causes the red warning field in the recess
to disappear. Otherwise, cargo can be thrown
into the passenger compartment during brak-
ing or evasive maneuvers, thus endangering the
passengers.
<
To ensure that the safety belts continue
to provide optimum protection, please
follow the instructions on page 27 . <
Ski bag*
To create a flat cargo surface, you can remove
the ski bag and replace it with a tray before fold-
ing the rear backrest forward. The tray is
inserted in the same way as inserting the ski
bag, refer to Inserting ski bag on page
76 .
Cargo area cover
Pull the cargo area cover out by the handle and
hook it into the rear holders.
You can carry light objects such as articles of
clothing on the cargo area cover.
Never place heavy, hard objects on the
cover. If you do so, they could endanger
passengers during braking or evasive maneu-
vers.
Do not allow the cover to snap back into place;
this can damage it.
