Safety grille

Updated 08/06/2023

A safety grille prevents loads or pets from being thrown forward in the passenger compartment in the event of sudden braking.

Folding up

Take hold of the bottom of the safety grille and pull back/up.

Important

The protective grille cannot be folded up or down when a cargo cover is fitted.

Fitting/removal

The safety grille is normally permanently installed in the car because it can easily be folded up in the roof and so be out of the way if a longer cargo area is required. However, if desired, the safety grille can be dismantled and removed from the car.

For safety reasons, the safety grille must always be correctly fastened and secured when being refitted.

The backrests must first be lowered to allow the safety grille to be fitted, see Seats, rear.

Note

The safety grille is most easily fitted/removed by two people via the rear doors.

During fitting the handle should be on the front of the grille, see the illustrations Ikon grå fyrkant 1 Ikon grå fyrkant 3 .

Position the handle in fitting position, see illustration. Press gently on the handle to enable it to be turned into position, see arrow.

Press the strut in towards the grille and align the grille in the roof mounting.

Turn the handle 90° Ikon röd pil 1 . Press gently as in the illustration (1) if necessary. Secure the grille by angling the handle 90° Ikon röd pil 2 .

Removal of the grille takes place in reverse order.
