Infants and Child Restraint Systems
Warning!
When the child restraint is not in use,
remove it from the car or secure it
with the seat belt to prevent the child
restraint from becoming a projectile
in the event of an accident.
We recommend that all infants and
children be restrained at all times while
the vehicle is in motion.
Rear-facing child restraints must not
be used in a front seat with a
passenger side airbag. They could be
struck by the airbag when if inflates
in a crash. If this happens, a child in
the restraint could be seriously
injured.
Important!
U.S.A. Models only
The use of infant or child restraints is
required by law in all 50 states and all
Canadian provinces.
Since 1986 all U.S. child restraints
comply with U.S. regulations without
the use of a tether strap.
Infants and small children should
never be held on the lap while the
vehicle is in motion. During an
accident they would be almost impos-
sible to hold, and could be crushed
between the adult and the dashboard.
Canada Models only
Infants and small children should be
seated in an infant or child restraint
system, which is properly secured by
the lap belt portion of the lap-shoulder
belt, and that complies with U.S.
Federal Motor Safety Standard 213 and
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard 213.1. A statement by the
child restraint manufacturer of
compliance with this standard can be
found on the instruction label on the
restraint and in the instruction manual
provided with the restraint.
This vehicle can be equipped with
tether anchorages for a top tether strap.
Consult your authorized Mercedes-
Benz dealer for installation of these
anchorages.
Infants and small children should
never share a seat belt with another
occupant. During an accident, they
could be crushed between the
occupant and seat belt.
In compliance with Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 210.1, child
restraint tether anchorage hardware is
attached to the tool kit located in the
trunk.
Children too big for child restraint
systems should use regular seat belts.
Position the shoulder belt across the
chest and shoulder, not the face or
neck. A booster seat may be
necessary to achieve proper belt
positioning.
When using any infant or child restraint
system, be sure to carefully read and
follow all manufacturer's instructions
for installation and use.
