Risk of injury G<br />

Correct operation of the airbags can only be<br />

guaranteed if:<br />

you do not place any objects under the<br />

seat cushion of the front-passenger seat<br />

you do not cover the padded boss of the<br />

steering wheel, the front-passenger airbag<br />

cover or the areas of the roof lining<br />

accommodating the windowbags, and<br />

you do not stick any badges or stickers<br />

on them<br />

you do not carry out any modifications<br />

to the restraint systems, including their<br />

wiring<br />

Risk of injury G<br />

To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury in<br />

the event of an accident with a high rate of<br />

deceleration, e.g. due to an airbag inflating<br />

within milliseconds, or in the event of sudden<br />

braking, please observe the following:<br />

All vehicle occupants must select a seat<br />

position in which they can wear their<br />

seat belt correctly and which is as far<br />

back from the airbag as possible. The<br />

driver's seat position must allow him to<br />

drive the vehicle safely. The driver's<br />

arms should be slightly bent when holding<br />

the steering wheel. The driver must<br />

maintain the correct distance from the<br />

pedals such that he or she can depress<br />

them fully.<br />

Position the front-passenger seat as far<br />

back as possible, particularly if a child is<br />

sitting on this seat or is secured in a<br />

child restraint system on this seat.<br />

Safety<br />

Restraint systems<br />

Vehicle occupants must wear their seat<br />

belt correctly at all times and sit back<br />

against the backrest which should be almost<br />

vertical. The head restraint should<br />

support the back of your head at about<br />

eye level.<br />

Rearward-facing child seats must not be<br />

secured on the front-passenger seat if<br />

the front-passenger front airbag is not<br />

deactivated or cannot be deactivated. In<br />

<strong>Mercedes</strong>-Benz vehicles with automatic<br />

child seat recognition, the front-passenger<br />

airbag is deactivated if a child restraint<br />

system with automatic child seat<br />

recognition is fitted to the front-passenger<br />

seat and the AIRBAG OFF warning<br />

lamp is lit.<br />

If your vehicle does not have automatic<br />

child seat recognition, children must be<br />

secured in a child restraint system on a<br />

suitable seat in the rear.<br />

If you fit a forward-facing child seat on<br />

the front-passenger seat, you must<br />

move the front-passenger seat to its<br />

rearmost position.<br />
