Adjusting the seats
Adjusting the seats
Adjust the driver's seat to the correct
position relative to the pedals and the
steering wheel before starting a journey.
Accident risk!
Only adjust the driver's seat
while the vehicle is stationary. You can
otherwise be distracted from the
traffic situation and the movement of
the seat could cause you to lose control
of the vehicle and result in an
accident.
Danger of injury!
Take the car to a qualified
specialist workshop, e.g. a smart
center if the seats have become
damaged.
The seat is an integral part of the car's
safety system in the same way as
e.g. seat belts and airbags. Its safety
function can only be upheld if the seats
are free of damage.
Danger of injury!
To reduce the risk of serious or
fatal injuries in an accident or as a
result of rapid deceleration, such as
with an airbag inflating within a
matter of milliseconds, please note the
following:
! All occupants must adopt a seated
position where they are able to fit
the seat belt correctly and are seated
as far as possible from the front
airbags. The driver's seated
position must nevertheless allow the
car to be driven safely. The driver
must maintain sufficient distance
from the pedals to be able to depress
them fully. The driver's arms should
be angled slightly when holding the
steering wheel.
! Use only smart baby carriers (in
conjunction with the smart quick fix)
to transport babies and small
children. Otherwise the passenger's
airbag could inadvertently cause
severe injuries to these occupants.
! Position the passenger's seat as far
back as possible, especially if
children are to be travelling on it
wearing child restraint systems* or
sitting directly on the seat.
! Occupants should always be wearing
a seat belt correctly and recline
against a backrest that is more or
less upright. The head restraint
should support the back of the head
at approximately eye level.
Danger of injury!
When adjusting the seat, make
sure that no one is trapped.

Adjusting the seats
Longitudinal seat adjustment ! Pull up the handle (A).
! Move the seat to the desired position.
! Release the handle.
>The locking mechanism must audibly
engage on both sides.
Seat height adjustment
The seat guide is inclined in the
horizontal plane. Longitudinal seat
adjustment also alters the seat height.
Accident risk!
Whenever the seat has been moved
forward or back, ensure that it engages
properly in position, as unexpected
movement or adjustment of the seat
while the car is being driven could
cause the driver to lose control and
result in an accident.
Danger of injury!
Do not insert your hands into the
seat rail when adjusting the seat's
longitudinal position. This represents
a considerable risk of injury.

Seat belts
Seat belts
The seat belts with integrated belt
tensioners and belt force limiters
combine with the airbags to form a
restraint system that offers maximum
safety in the event of an accident.
Danger of injury!
Airbags represent an additional
form of protection but are no substitute
for wearing a seat belt. To reduce the
risk of serious or fatal injuries, make
sure that all occupants, particularly
pregnant women, always fasten their
seat belt correctly, are sitting in a
normal position and have their seat
more or less in the upright position.
Danger of injury!
If you do not fit the seat belt
correctly or do not engage it properly
in the catch, it will be unable to
protect you in the manner intended. In
certain circumstances this could
result in serious or even fatal
injuries. You should therefore make
sure that all occupants ! particularly
pregnant women – are always wearing
their seat belt correctly. Make sure
that the belt
! runs over the hip bone as low down as
possible, i.e. across the hip joint
and not across the stomach.
! is taut.
! is not twisted.
! runs centrally over the shoulder.
! does not run across the neck or is
underneath the arm.
! is sufficiently taut across the
pelvis; pull up the belt running
across the chest to tauten it.
Always use a seat belt for one person
only.
Never use a seat belt for an object and a
person at one and the same time.
Avoid wearing bulky clothing, e.g. a
winter coat.
Do not allow the belt to run across sharp
or fragile objects, particularly on or
inside your clothes, such as glasses,
pens, keys, etc. The belt could
otherwise tear and expose you or other
occupants to a risk of injury.
Never carry children travelling on the
lap of an occupant. In the event of an
accident, abrupt braking or sudden
changes of direction, it would no
longer be possible to hold the child
securely, and both the child and other
occupants could sustain potentially
fatal injuries as a result.

Danger of injury!
Pe rs on s l es s t ha n 1 50 c en ti me tr es
tall and children under 12 years of age
will be unable to fit the seat belts
correctly. They consequently require
additional restraint systems* mounted
on suitable car seats (e.g. child seats
or child booster seats) for added
protection in the event of an accident.
Please also always observe the fitting
instructions supplied by the
manufacturer of the child restraint
systems*.
Danger of injury!
The seat belt only provides the
intended degree of occupant restraint
if the backrest is almost vertical and
the occupant is sitting upright. Avoid
seated positions that prevent the seat
belt from lying correctly across the
wearer's body. For this reason,
position the backrest as vertically as
possible. Never drive with a backrest
reclined well back. You otherwise risk
sustaining serious injury in the event
of an accident or abrupt braking, with
potentially fatal consequences in the
case of accidents.
Danger of injury!
The seat belt may no longer
function correctly if the belt or catch
is dirty or damaged. For this reason,
keep the belt and catch clean, as the
buckle may otherwise not engage
properly.
Check the seat belts regularly to ensure
that
! they are not damaged,
! they are not running across sharp
edges,
! they are not trapped.
The belt could otherwise tear in the
event of an accident. You or others
could sustain serious or fatal injuries
as a result.
If seat belts have been damaged or
subjected to high loads in an accident,
have them replaced and have the belt
anchorages checked.
For safety reasons, smart gmbh
recommends using only seat belts that
smart gmbh has specifically approved
for your vehicle.

! below the belt guide.
>Note!
If the seat belt is to be run above or below
the seat belt guide, the belt must be taken
out of the guide.
Danger of injury!
Modifications or work performed
inexpertly to a restraint system (seat
belt and anchorages, belt tensioners,
belt force limiters or airbag) or its
wiring and any alterations made to
other networked electronic systems
could result in the restraint systems no
longer functioning in the manner
intended. Airbags or belt tensioners
could e.g. fail to operate in accidents
where the rate of deceleration exceeds
the tripping threshold, or be activated
unintentionally. For this reason, never
make modifications to the occupant
restraint systems. Do not perform any
work on electronic components and
their software without the necessary
expertise.

Belt tensioners and belt force limiters
Belt tensioners and belt force
limiters
The seat belts are equipped with
! belt tensioners,
! a belt force limiter,
the functions of which are explained
below.
Belt tensioners
! tension the seat belts when activated,
so that they lie tightly across the body.
! are only triggered in collisions with
high vehicle deceleration/
acceleration in the longitudinal
direction, e.g. a head!on collision.
>If the airbag indicator light comes
on, your belt tensioner has been
activated.
>Note!
Do not fasten the seat belt on the front
passenger's side if it is not occupied. In
the event of an accident, the belt
tensioner would be triggered
unnecessarily.
>Note!
Belt tensioners cannot compensate for:
! incorrect seated positions,
! seat belts worn incorrectly.
Belt tensioners do not actively pull the
occupants back against the seat
backrests.
Belt force limiters
! reduce the force exerted by the belt on
the occupants when activated in the
event of an accident.
The belt force limiter is designed to
operate in unison with the front airbag,
which absorbs a portion of the seat belt's
decelerating forces, distributing the
load over a larger area.
If the ignition is switched on, the belt
tensioner is activated:
! if the restraint systems are
operational.
! for each three!point seat belt that is
fastened properly.
! in the event of a head!on or rear!end
collision if the vehicle is decelerated
or accelerated sufficiently in the
longitudinal direction at the start of
impact.
! in certain rollover situations if the
need for additional protection is
detected.

Danger of injury!
If the airbag indicator light
does not come on when a baby carrier is
fitted to the passenger's seat, the

particularly if the child is in the
immediate vicinity of the passenger's
airbag at the time of its activation.
The passenger's airbag is only
deactivated when you fit an original
smart baby carrier to the passenger's
seat.
Danger of injury!
For this reason, you should never
carry a child on the passenger's seat in
a child restraint system that faces to
the rear if the passenger's airbag has
not been deactivated, i.e. if the airbag
indicator light is not lit.
Also observe the corresponding

Until this problem has been rectified,
do not carry children in the car, as they
could sustain serious or even fatal
injuries in the event of an accident.

Air conditioning plus*
The air conditioning plus system
improves the level of comfort when
driving at high outside temperatures

Your heater and ventilation support the
functions of the air conditioning plus
system. Their operation is explained

In addition, an integrated combination
filter* (dust, pollen and particulate
filter) purifies the fresh air inflow. It
continues to operate when the air
conditioning plus system is switched off
and you have switched the blower on.
>Note!
Operating the air conditioning plus
system increases fuel consumption.
>Note!
Dehumidification of the air by air
conditioning plus system prevents the
windows from fogging when there is a
high level of moisture in the air.
This effect can also be used to de!ice the
windows if, in addition to the air
conditioning plus system, the heater is
switched to maximum.
When will the air conditioning plus
system operate?
The air conditioning plus system works

Car cover*
Car cover*
Do not use the car cover to conceal
extremely dirty vehicles, as the dirt
particles will act like sandpaper on the
paintwork.
>Important!
If the vehicle is to be continually
covered up for longer than a month, the
roof, engine compartment and luggage
compartment areas must be ventilated at
those areas where the car cover makes
contact with a large surface.
The vehicle’s paintwork may absorb
moisture, which has to be released. If the
absorbed moisture is not released again,
blotches may form on the paintwork.
In order to prevent such stains from
forming, spacers – made, e.g. from
expanded polystyrene – should be
inserted between the car cover and the
vehicle surface to ensure that sufficient
air can circulate.
Fitting the car cover
The car cover has been folded ex works so
that when it is unrolled, the material’s
foam!based side always faces the
bodywork.
! Roll the car cover over the vehicle roof
from the rear to the front.
! Unfold the car cover on both sides.
! Pull the cord tight so that the cover has
a taut fit.
>The wind now cannot lift up the car
cover.

Removing the car cover
! Slacken the cord.

Anti!theft insurance
The car cover is insured against theft for
a period of one year. If within a period of
one year from the date of purchase it
should be stolen, you will be issued with
a new car cover if you send the following
documents to the Eigbrecht company:
a) a copy of the police report,
b) proof of purchase,
c) the guarantee certificate, and
d) a processing fee of 16 payable by
cheque.
