Exterior rear view mirror heating
This feature is only available on the model
passion and BRABUS and in conjunction
with power exterior rear view mirrors.
After switching on the rear window
defroster, the exterior rear view mirrors
will be heated automatically. This pre-
vents icing up the exterior rear view mir-
rors and also creates a clear view when the
exterior rear view mirrors have fogged up.
If the rear window defroster is automati-
cally deactivated after approximately
10 minutes of operation, the exterior rear
view mirror heating also deactivates.

WARNING
Always fasten your seat belt before driving.
Always make sure all of your passengers are
properly restrained.
Failure to wear and properly fasten and
position your seat belt greatly increases
your risk of injuries and their likely
severity in an accident. You and your
passenger should always wear seat belts.
If you are ever in an accident, your injuries
can be considerably more severe without
your seat belt properly buckled.
Without your seat belt buckled, you are
much more likely to hit the interior of the
vehicle or be ejected from it. You can be
seriously injured or killed.
In the same crash, the possibility of injury
or death is lessened if you are properly
wearing your seat belt. Air bags can only
protect you if you are properly wearing
your seat belt.

tional information, see “Children in the

A child’s risk of serious or fatal injuries
is significantly increased if the child
