When folding back to the seating posi-
tion, make sure that the catch engages

properly, otherwise even braking or swerving,
for example, could cause items of luggage to be
displaced forwards into the interior compart-
ment, endangering the occupants.

There are lashing eyes in the luggage compart-
ment to which a net

or retaining straps can be

attached when loads have to be secured, see

Ski bag*

This enables up to four pairs of standard skis or
up to two snowboards to be carried safely and
kept clean.
You can stow skis up to a length of 2.10 m,
approx. 7 ft, with the aid of the ski bag. If skis of
this length are carried, however, the capacity of
the ski bag is lower in view of its tapered design.

Loading

Fold down the centre armrest, press the
button and open the cover.

Press the button again; the cover in the lug-
gage compartment opens. The cover in the
luggage compartment will also open if you
press the button hard enough the first time.

Lay out the ski bag between the front seats
and fill it. The zip fastener provides better
access to the objects stowed in the bag and
facilitates drying the ski bag.

Insert the tongue of the ski bag retaining
strap in the centre belt buckle marked
CENTER.

Make sure that the skis are clean before they
are inserted into the bag. Wrap protective mate-
rial around any sharp edges to avoid causing
damage.

Securing the load

After loading the ski bag, secure the bag and its
contents by tightening the retaining strap at its
turnbuckle.

Secure the ski bag in the manner
described, otherwise even heavy braking

or sudden swerving could be sufficient to
endanger the car's occupants.

To stow away the ski bag, follow the opposite
procedure as for loading.

Removing ski bag

The ski bag can be removed completely, e.g. for
ease of drying or so that you can use other fit-
tings in its place.
