Upholstery filling of seat modified - BT91.18-P-0001-01F

MODEL 210 as of 1.9.98

As of 9/98, when replacing seat covers ensure that modified seat covers are fitted. With previous versions the upholstery filling is stuffed into pockets in middle area of seat cover and stuck to seat matting in side area. Owing to a technical development, on the new version upholstery filling is sewn directly to seat cover across the whole width. Sticking upholstery filling to seat matting in side area therefore no longer applies.

Modification of seat covers affects all model 210 vehicles with Elegance and Avantgarde equipment lines, material and leather versions.

Not affected are all rear seat cushions with optional extra ICS (Integrated Child Seat) on Limousine and T-model, as well as third rear seat row of T-model.

NOTE: In future, previous seat covers (1) and matting (4, 5 and 6) will not be available as replacement parts.
