Adjustments<br />
Even if you have not yet fastened your safety<br />
belt, the belt hand-over will retract if you:<br />
> Wait for more than approx. one minute<br />
> Open the corresponding door<br />
> Start driving.<br />
Closing the respective door reactivates the belt<br />
hand-over if the ignition or radio readiness is on.<br />
Front passenger seat<br />
The belt hand-over will extend only if the seat is<br />
occupied and after the front passenger door is<br />
closed.<br />

curb monitor*<br />
3 Folding mirrors in and out*<br />
The setting for the exterior mirrors is stored for<br />
the remote control currently in use*. The stored<br />
position is called up automatically when the<br />
vehicle is unlocked.<br />
<strong>Manual</strong> adjustment<br />
The mirrors can also be adjusted manually:<br />
press the edge of the glass.<br />
Pinch protection system<br />
If the belt hand-over encounters resistance on<br />
moving in or out, it moves back slightly in the<br />
opposite direction and stops in this position. To<br />
reactivate the belt hand-over: open and close<br />
the door or switch the ignition off and on.<br />
Although there is a pinch protection system,<br />
always check that the maneuvering<br />
area of the belt hand-over is clear. Otherwise it<br />
cannot be ensured that the system will stop<br />
moving in certain extreme situations.<<br />
Mirrors<br />
Exterior mirrors<br />
The front passenger's mirror is more convex<br />
than the driver's mirror. The objects<br />
seen in the mirror are closer than they appear.<br />
Do not gauge your distance from traffic behind<br />
you on the basis of what you see in the mirror;<br />
otherwise, there is an increased risk of an accident.<<br />
Folding mirrors in and out*<br />
At driving speeds up to approx. 12 mph/20 km/<br />
h, you can fold the mirrors in and out by pressing<br />
button 3. This can be beneficial in narrow<br />
streets, for example, or for moving mirrors that<br />
were folded in by hand back out into their correct<br />
positions. Mirrors that were folded in are<br />
folded out automatically at a speed of approx.<br />
25 mph/40 km/h.<br />
Before entering an automatic car wash,<br />
fold in the exterior mirrors manually or<br />
with button 3 to prevent them from being damaged,<br />
depending on the width of the vehicle.<<br />
Automatic heating<br />
Depending on the outside temperature, both<br />
exterior mirrors are heated automatically when<br />
the engine is running or the ignition is switched<br />
on.<br />
