Extra seat (option)
The extra seat is suitable for two children,
each weighing between 15 and 36 kg and up
to max. 140 cm tall. The maximum total
weight is 72 kg.
Folding up
Remove the cargo area cover if your car is
so equipped.
Fold the backrest section forwards until it
locks in place.
Fold the seat cushion forwards.
Lowering
Fold the seat cushion rearwards.
Pull the backrest section’s handle to open
it and then fold it downwards.
If you must take the cargo area cover along
on a trip while using the extra seat in the
cargo area, proceed as follows:
Fold both backrests of the backseat into a
more upright position (see page 90).
Carefully position the detached cargo
area cover between the rear seat
backrests and the extra seat. Fold up the
extra seat’s head restraint.
WARNING!
If your car is fitted with an extra seat then
the tailgate must be equipped with a lock
cylinder. Unlocking from the outside can
now take place in the normal way (key in
driver’s door and/or with the remote con-
trol) as well as by using the key in the tail-
gate lock cylinder.
The child safety locks in the tailgate must
be activated, in order to prevent a child
accidentally opening the tailgate from the
inside.
WARNING!
When the extra seat is being used, both of
the rear seat backrests must be in the
raised position, the safety net removed,
and the child safety lock open. This is to
enable the child to leave the car in the
event of an accident.
If your car is fitted with a steel mesh then,
without exception, this must be removed
before the extra seat is used.
