Vehicle equipment

All standard, country-specific and optional

equipment that is offered in the model series is

described in this chapter. Therefore, equip‐

ment is also described that is not available in a

vehicle, e. g., because of the selected optional

equipment or country variant. This also applies

for safety-related functions and systems.

Hints

Overloading the vehicle

To avoid exceeding the approved carry‐

ing capacity of the tires, never overload the ve‐

hicle. Overloading can lead to overheating and

increases the rate at which damage develops

inside the tires. This could result in a sudden

loss of tire inflation pressure.◀

No fluids in the trunk

Make sure that fluids do not leak into the

trunk; otherwise, the vehicle may be dam‐

aged.◀

Securing cargo

Always position and secure the cargo as

described above; otherwise, it can endanger

the car's occupants if sudden braking or

swerving becomes necessary.

Heavy or hard objects should not be carried

loose inside the car; otherwise, they could be

thrown around as a result of hard braking, sud‐

den swerves, etc., and endanger the occu‐

pants.◀

Determining the load limit

Locate the following statement on your ve‐

hicle’s placard:

▷ The combined weight of occupants

and cargo should never exceed XXX kg

or YYY lbs. Otherwise, damage to the

vehicle and unstable driving situations

may result.

2. Determine the combined weight of the

driver and passengers that will be riding in

your vehicle.

3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver

and passengers from XXX kilograms or

YYY pounds.

4. The resulting figure equals the available

amount of cargo and luggage load ca‐

pacity.

For example, if the YYY amount equals

1,000 lbs and there will be four 150 lbs

passengers in your vehicle, the amount of

available cargo and luggage load capacity

is 400 lbs: 1,000 lbs minus 600 lbs =

400 lbs.

5. Determine the combined weight of lug‐

gage and cargo being loaded on the vehi‐

cle. That weight may not safely exceed the

available cargo and luggage load capacity

calculated in Step 4.
